Been looking back at Bitcoin's wild price journey and it's honestly crazy how far we've come. Back in 2010, bitcoin price in 2010 was literally sitting at $0.09 per coin. Like, you could've grabbed thousands for pocket change.
Fast forward to 2012 and we saw it hit around $687.5, then 2018 came with $20K. Most people remember the 2021 bull run when it touched $49K. By 2023 it was hovering around the $42K mark, and now in mid-2026 we're looking at $80.69K territory.
The whole trajectory just shows how much adoption and institutional interest has changed the game. From literal pennies to five figures per coin. Pretty wild to think about if you were early.
