How changing rate of bitcoin from beginning till now

 Bitcoin, the world's first and most well-known cryptocurrency, has seen significant fluctuations in value since its creation in 2009. Here is a brief history of how the value of Bitcoin has changed over time:

2009-2010: Bitcoin was first created in 2009 by an anonymous individual or group using the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto. At the time, it had no value on any exchanges.

2010: The first Bitcoin transaction took place, in which 10,000 BTC were exchanged for two pizzas. The first known value of Bitcoin was established when a user on a Bitcoin forum offered to sell 10,000 BTC for $50.

2011-2012: Bitcoin began to gain popularity, and its value rose from a few cents to over $30 in 2011. However, the value dropped to around $2 in 2012 due to concerns about security and regulation.

Nigeria is currently facing a shortage of physical cash after the CBN redesigned its banknotes, causing the old bills of the local naira currency to become useless. The policy prompted citizens to flood banks and ATMs to swap their old bills for new ones.

US lawmakers want crypto miners to share energy and emissions data

 Core crypto critic Elizabeth Warren, alongside seven other democrat lawmakers, compelled the government to disclose the energy consumption data of crypto miners domiciled in the US.

The lawmakers stated that it is “essential” for a “disclosure regime” to be adopted quickly and “on a required basis” in the letter, which was addressed to key figures like Department of Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm and EPA Administrator Michael Regan.

Warren is leading the team, and they’re hoping that this latest intervention letter will give the basis for the full-scale scrutiny of the crypto mining impacts on the energy emission goals of the US.
