Bitcoin price history The price of Bitcoin has seen big changes since BTC was first launched in 2009. Initially, Bitcoin didn’t really have an established price, and most people who owned BTC obtained it through mining. Eventually, a growing number of people became interested in Bitcoin, and began buying coins from other holders. Initially, these purchases were facilitated directly between buyers and sellers through web forums like Bitcoin Talk.
Eventually, Bitcoin exchanges were created and offered a more streamlined and automated way of buying and selling Bitcoin. One of the first ever Bitcoin exchanges was Bitcoin Market, which launched in 2010. Bitcoin Market and other platforms established a public market for Bitcoin, making it possible to track the price of BTC as expressed in US dollars and other currencies. The first price of Bitcoin was $0.07, according to CoinCodex data, which tracks the Bitcoin price starting from August 2010.
