The History, Mystery, and Magic of Bitcoin

If you have to define Crypto, these virtual currencies remain decentralized and have no intervention from governments or financial institutions like central banks. If you feel that Crypto is a decade-old phenomenon, think again. You must check more details and consider it in the market. The history of Crypto has a rich and backdated history that goes somewhere to the eighties when these had a different name – cyber currency. All these coins formally came together in the form of a Crypto known as Bitcoin in 2008 when Satoshi Nakamoto wrote the nine-page whitepaper. The document defined the currency, and soon in 2009, he brought it to the market. The money came into circulation in 2009, but the real-time transaction occurred in May when an IT professional from LA got two pizzas worth 41 USD with 10K BTCs. Since then, it has been looking for something other than Bitcoin as it has kept evolving, moving ahead at a more excellent pace, and finally coming to its current form. The post talks about the history and evolution of Crypto while visiting the site – bitalpha-ai.io for more.

The Evolution of Crytos Before Bitcoin

The first time we heard about Crypto or similar things was in 1980. A US-based man called David Chaum 1980 talked about inventing digital cash with the help of cryptography technology. The said technology helps in securing Crypto and validates the transactions with the same. However, adding some touches to the idea took around a decade. The nineties saw some additional protocols come ahead, the software made things easy, and the creation of a completely decentralized virtual currency came into the boardroom. So, it was only in the people’s minds as nothing tangible came forward in this direction. Eventually, in 2008, we heard about Crypto coming from Satoshi Nakamoto. He brought the whitepaper to the market, which gave an idea about Bitcoin, and he finally came up with it in Jan 2009. It came as a P2P digital cash that does not depend upon any third-party groups like banks. His idea also brought the revolution surrounding the first Crypto coming into the market.

Bitcoin came in 2009

In understanding Bitcoin’s history or evolution, you must take Bitcoin from this topic. It came in 2009 and is more known as the first Crypto in the world. It works open-source in the market, and people can use it across the globe without any border or any other issue without seeking the interference of government or banks. Yet, it has seen a good rise in the market, and people need help recognizing it. The first Bitcoin transaction occurred when the founder Nakamoto and one more man, Hal Finney 2009 agreed to transact. However, the trade came in 2010 when Bitcoin was given as legal tender to a local pizza store to get two pizzas. A local software developer in LA had 10K Bitcoins, and he gave the coins to procure two pizzas worth 41 USD. Papa John’s pizzas went for 10K BTCs, which is gigantic today in the market.

The early development days of Crypto – 2010 – 2016

In early 2010, we witnessed Bitcoin being among the best Crypto on the market. We can find the price in a few cents in one go, which increases to gain one USD mark in the market. The said value came into the need for a while, and then it gained a reasonable price when the world realized it quickly. However, with issues like volatility, there are some trust issues with Crypto. But in 2017, things changed, and Crypto gained massive growth in the market. It went on to get a total market cap of around 820 B USD. It was short-lived till we saw the crash of Crypto in 2018.

The Age of scams – 2018

2017 was a glorious age for Bitcoin and other cryptos. However, it fell in 2018, crashing badly in the market. The value of Bitcoin and several other cryptos in the market went ahead in a big way. Several scams and schemes came under the name of Crypto, and it went on to take people for a ride, dying the craze for Bitcoin till it came in 2020.

The popularity of Bitcoin in 2020

Earlier, the coin came at the cost of around 1K USD, and in 2020 when Covid hit the world, the currency needed to give you more in the market. The currency gained around 20K USD, and it finally went ahead faster to earn higher costs. Finally, in 2021, the money gained around 70K USD.

Yuki Tsunoda vs. Daniel Ricciardo

TSUNODA LEAVES RICCIARDO IN HIS WAKE TO WIN MIAMI GRAND PRIX OPENER

Japanese F1 star Yuki Tsunoda has declared he will ‘sleep easy’ ahead of this weekend’s Miami Grand Prix after winning a head-to-head mini jet boat battle against eight-time F1 winner Daniel Ricciardo on Miami’s Biscayne Bay.

Ahead of tomorrow’s Miami Grand Prix, Red Bull transformed the Biscayne Bay into a racetrack with Formula 1 Drivers from both Scuderia AlphaTauri and Oracle Red Bull Racing Team battling it out aboard mini jet boats to launch the (Un)Serious Race showdown.

Watch the premiere episode, featuring Daniel Ricciardo and Yuki Tsunoda, HERE.

The (Un)Serious Race Series is a 6-part series that follows the drivers from both Teams throughout the Grand Prix season in unexpecting, on-the-edge-of-your-seat surprising locations and formats. In the series’ first episode, Oracle Red Bull Racing’s Ricciardo and Scuderia AlphaTauri’s Tsunoda trade in their racing suits for swimmies ahead of the Miami Grand Prix.

Just over six feet long, capable of speeds up to 30 mph, the boats were built in collaboration between Torch Craft Marine and Jetstream Adventure Boats. After a fast start, Tsunoda is passed by Ricciardo mid-race but pegged back the Australian’s advantage to ultimately cross the finish line first.

The project finds the Charlotte-bred rapper hand delivering an assortment of hard-hitting, speaker knocking anthems for fans to indulge in.

Teased on Easter Sunday, Baby‘s strong social media push of the sure fire twerk anthem, “SHAKE SUMN” — which includes a combined 18 million views on Instagram, 80.2 million views on TikTok and shares from celebrities such as legendary actor and comedian Kevin Hart — has garnered incredible success for the rap superstar and opened the door for him to hit fans with even more vibes for the incoming Summer season.

Following “SHAKE SUMN” is “GHETTO GIRLS>>>>,” a song that finds DaBaby reflecting on the type of women that catch his eye over a beat sampling the classic Cash Money Records track of the same name. “SELLIN CRACK,” on the other hand, has the GRAMMY-nominated rapper serving up his razor sharp bars that fans have been fiending for with a fiery guest verse from Offset.

TALEBAN DOODA – GOING GLOBAL

breakout East Tampa rapper Taleban Dooda returns with the poignant new single “Going Global.” Listen HERE and watch HERE via District 18 / Warner Records. Melodic, laid back and full of raw truth, the unfiltered track speaks to the up-and-comer’s lofty ambitions while delivering the poise and raw talent to back it up. It’s the latest single from Dooda as he gears up to release a new project this summer.

“I told my mom I goin’ global, she ain’t believe me, ‘til she see her baby boy on the TV,” the 20-year-old spits over sweet acoustic guitar picking and an intricate down-beat tempo. “Say her friend just called, her son wanna be just like me — I say tell her no he don’t, ’cause this ain’t what he want … it’s the same as when you die, you all alone.” Hard-hitting and intimate, “Going Global” doubles as Dooda’s account of starting out in the rap game.

The new track arrives soon after the soulful “Mind of a Maniac” and “Major Pain,” another introspective track full of emotion and diaristic lyrics. It was preceded by “Come After Me” and the Step Wit A Passion mixtape, which dropped in late 2022 and boasted the hit single “If It Happen It Happen.” That project followed Dooda’s other 2022 release White Chalk & Yellow Tape, which is disarmingly cohesive from front to back. Prior to that, he dropped a series of singles including “Foreigns & Trackhawks,” “Sunset,” and “Call 100 Times.”

Now, with “Going Global,” Dooda continues to bravely share his thoughts and fears while crafting an arresting and infectious anthem that demands to be heard.

MARVEL’S LGBTQIA+ LEGACY

MARVEL’S LGBTQIA+ LEGACY AND FUTURE TAKES CENTER STAGE IN THIS YEAR’S PRIDE MONTH VARIANT COVERS REVEALED

Available throughout June, Lucas Werneck and David Talaski spotlight LGBTQIA+ Marvel super heroes in six stunning new covers!

Pride Month is rapidly approaching, and Marvel Comics is excited to reveal all of this year’s stunning PRIDE VARIANT COVERS! Yesterday, fans got to see LGBTQIA+ characters from the galaxy far, far away in all-new STAR WARS PRIDE VARIANT COVERS, and now it’s time to see some of Marvel’s most beloved LGBTQIA+ stars in six stunning PRIDE VARIANT COVERS by two superstar talents, Lucas Werneck and David Talaski!

Celebrating Pride all month long, these variant covers will grace comic stands each week of June with incredible depictions of LGBTQIA+ heroes from all corners of the Marvel Universe including longtime icons, rising stars, fan-favorites, and recent breakout characters. While Werneck captures the joy of Pride Month with characters paying tribute to Ballroom culture and gay nightlife, Talaski showcases the power of Pride Month with character’s strength and resilience on full display in striking portraits.

All six characters featured are currently impacting the Marvel mythos in ongoing series, limited series, upcoming launches, and more! Here’s the lineup of heroes highlight and the comics where you can currently find their stories:

· Rachel Summers, aka Askani, the daughter of Jean Grey and Scott Summers from an alternate future, longtime Phoenix host, and overall mutant powerhouse, is currently fighting alongside Captain Britain in the pages of Betsy Braddock: Captain Britain!

· Aaron Fischer, aka the Captain America of the Railways, debuted in 2021’s United States of Captain America as a protector of fellow runaways, and after recent appearances in Captain America: Sentinel of Liberty, he’ll star in his own upcoming Marvel Unlimited Infinity Comic!

· Black Cat, Marvel’s greatest thief and one of Spider-Man’s fiercest allies, fans can catch Felicia Hardy clawing her way through villains and committing legendary heists in her latest series, Mary Jane & Black Cat, and in the pages of Amazing Spider-Man!

· Fang, aka Daken, son of Wolverine, former X-Men villain, and one of mutantkind’s deadliest warriors, has served Krakoa bravely in team books like X-Factor and Marauders and this summer, he’ll be on the frontlines of FALL OF X in an all-new ALPHA FLIGHT series!

· Web-Weaver, the most fabulous hero in the Spider-Verse, slayed the runway and super villains alike in last year’s Edge of Spider-Verse and after recent appearances in Spider-Man and Marvel’s Voices: Spider-Verse, will headline his next solo adventure in this year’s MARVEL’S VOICES: PRIDE!

“The category is PRIDE! It was so fun to make these three covers. My idea was to put the characters in a Ballroom setting, living the best moment of their lives to remind ourselves to do the same. We’re beautiful the way we are and we deserve to shine and be happy,” Werneck said. “I’m so thrilled to be part of Marvel’s Pride celebration for a second year, this means a lot to me! I really hope fans enjoy these covers as much as I enjoyed making them!”

“I love comics, and it’s always exciting when I get to draw these characters, but it becomes an honor when it’s for my community of Queer comic fans,” Talaski said. “What makes getting to draw Aaron, Rachel and Daken special is that they’re all LGBTQIA+ characters from across 40 years of comics so it feels like I get to make something, not just for longtime fans, but for new ones as well.”

Check with your local comic shop regarding availability and pick up all of this year’s MARVEL PRIDE VARIANT COVERS this June.

Lillie Mae – Razor Love

Acclaimed singer-songwriter, multi-instrumentalist Lillie Mae has shared her passionate new rendition of Neil Young’s classic “Razor Love,” available today at all DSPs and streaming services.

“Like a lot of songs, I think ‘Razor Love’ is probably interpreted differently to the listener,” Lillie Mae says. “I can identify with the line, ‘on the road there’s no place like home.’”

LISTEN TO “RAZOR LOVE”

Recorded in Dallas, TX with producer Beau Bedford (Delta Spirit, Orville Peck) and inspired in part by Lillie Mae’s mother’s maiden name of Razor, “Razor Love” heralds the early awaited arrival of the Nashville-based artist’s upcoming third studio album, due later this year via S || C Records. Lillie Mae’s first new release in more than four years, the emotionally charged new track – which features backing by her siblings, Frank Carter Rische (electric guitar, acoustic guitar, harmony vocals) and Scarlett Rische (acoustic mandolin), along with husband Craig Smith (electric guitar, B-bender guitar), producer Bedford (keys, synth, guitar, Moog), Aaron Goodrich (drums, percussion), and Geoffrey Muller (electric bass) – continues a remarkable body of work begun with her acclaimed 2017 debut album, Forever and Then Some (produced by 12x Grammy Award-winner Jack White), and its 2019 follow-up, Other Girls (produced by 8x Grammy Award-winner Dave Cobb), both released on Third Man Records.

Lillie Mae – who recently returned to the stage with a shipboard performance on Sixthman and SiriusXM’s Outlaw Country West festival cruise – will celebrate her new music and much more with an active live schedule. Already announced highlights include a free Memorial Day Weekend concert as part of Nashville’s annual Musician’s Corner (set for Friday, May 26 in Centennial Park), as well as a return to the high seas on the upcoming Outlaw Country Cruise 8, sailing February 4-10, 2024 from Miami, FL to Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic and San Juan, Puerto Rico aboard Norwegian Pearl. For updates and additional information, please visit lilliemaemusic.com.

Lillie Mae has been singing and playing since she could stand on her own two feet, performing with her family band at churches, fairs, festivals and theme parks across the country. In 2012, she joined Jack White’s all-female touring and recording combo, The Peacocks, playing fiddle and mandolin. The two musicians formed an immediate kinship, both being the youngest children of large families and instrumental polymaths. White was similarly appreciative of Lillie Mae’s songwriting, producing Forever and Then Some at his Third Man Studios in their mutual home city of Nashville. She swiftly followed up with 2019’s Other Girls, pushing her sound into different shapes with superstar producer Dave Cobb (Brandi Carlile, Jason Isbell) at the helm. “On her second album, the Nashville spitfire flits easily between country, bluegrass, and rock,” raved Pitchfork, noting Lillie Mae’s willingness to merge to myriad strains of Americana to present an authentically original vision all her own. Now, with the premiere of “Razor Love” and the promise of more new music to come, Lillie Mae once again affirms herself as a gifted and heartfelt musical storyteller, marked by remarkable authenticity, resourcefulness, and passion.
