The Bitcoin epic satoshi, originating from block 840,000, represents the first satoshi attached to the halving block reward. Only four of these epic sats have ever been created, making them highly coveted among Bitcoin enthusiasts.
CoinEx initiated the auction with a starting bid of 1 BTC, which quickly escalated to 33.3 BTC by Thursday morning.
The final bid surpassed $2.1 million, marking an astronomical increase of 338 billion percent compared to the typical value of a satoshi. This particular satoshi, labeled as Sat #1,968,750,000,000,000, is one of only four “epic satoshis” ever created, symbolizing the first satoshi attached to the halving block reward.
Each Bitcoin epic satoshi holds significant historical importance within the ecosystem, symbolizing the beginning of a new halving epoch. The Ordinals numbering system categorizes satoshis based on rarity and significance, with Bitcoin epic satoshis occupying a prestigious place among collectors and investors.
As Bitcoin continues to evolve, the allure of these historic satoshis remains undiminished, reflecting the enduring fascination with the origins and milestones of the world’s leading cryptocurrency.
