The first Bitcoin website, Bitcoin.org, was tweeted by Bitcoin historian Pete Rizzo, showing what it looked like when Bitcoin was worth $0, exactly 16 years ago. The website was simplistic and featured details of the first open-source Bitcoin client. Satoshi Nakamoto registered the domain in 2008 and released the Bitcoin whitepaper in 2009. Ownership of Bitcoin.org was transferred to distribute responsibilities after Nakamoto's departure, and it is now an independent open-source project.
