8 years ago, the first person to receive BTC (Hal Finney) sadly passed away. He played a crucial role for Crypto.

Hal Finney, is the first ever receiver for Bitcoin and he got it from the man, Satoshi Nakamoto, himself. He was always a very passionate person about new tech and when Bitcoj launched he directly got into it and became the only person apart from Satoshi Nakamoto to run it. He then received the first Crypto transaction of 10 BTC.

Furthermore he has been talking with Satoshi Nakamoto about bugs through emails and was likely the only person to ever know who Satoshi Nakamoto was. It's clear that his help and passion for Bitcoin has helped a lot to know have market with 20.000 cryptocurrency's.

He will remembered as a great person to contribute to Crypto. May he rest in peace.
