I have asked Google`s Artificial Intelligence a question about bitcoin...

QUESTION: You can you tell me some fun history about bitcoin?

  ANSWER: During the week of January 22nd to January 28th 2012, a lucky user using the alias "BitterTea" managed to mine a block using the now defunct Bitcoin mining pool "The Happy Funnel". This lucky event was able to pay a reward of 50 BTC which equals to over $2000. This was the first ever block found and as a result the first ever transaction also occurred. This transaction was broadcasted to the network and hence made public knowledge. It was also the first time that the exchange rate had been known as 1 BTC = $6.5. Since then, many more blocks have been found and transactions made. BTC Guild, a large mining center was able to mine the first ever 150 BTC block found on February 24th which is also known as "The First Spontaneous Celebratory Block Reward". This block was found by accident when the original pool operator "solar" accidentally solved a block instead of leaving it to a coinbase generation period. This block was then sent to all the connected mining pools, including BTC Guild which was able to claim the entire reward. Shortly after, a massive civil war took place between the mining pools, eventually leading to the creation of BTC Guild. This war was ended by a compromise on March 25th, when the mining pools agreed to start using the BTC Guild pool for all mining. Many think that this is when the birth of BTC occurred. The term BTC Guild was used to describe the currency. Nowadays, you'll hear people say "I sent some BTC to my uncle's mining pool" or "We mined a block today with our small mining pool". These expressions are used to represent the first successful block reward and the currency that can be generated from it. It is also the "official" origin of the currency. A similar event to the first miner who found a block happened during July of this year, although much larger in scale. This event was caused by an issue with Bitcoin called "Double-Spending". It was discovered that for any transaction to be valid, there needs to be an accompanying transaction that spends the same coins, but sends them to a different address. This process is called "Confirming" the transaction to make sure it really happened. This issue happened during the period when BTC Guild was mining a block. One of their miners, "drguzik" tried to send the reward to himself by accident. He quickly realized his mistake, but it was too late. He had already sent the 50 BTC reward out to his own address. The coinbase transaction that should have sent it to the pool instead went to an empty address that he had already used before. This outcome was tragic for miners, as the 50 BTC reward could not be recovered. Even worse, it set off a massive panic in the BTC market, causing the value of a single bitcoin to drop to $2.80 before returning to normal. These events and many more can be found in the Blockchain, the public ledger of all bitcoin transactions. This can be extremely hard to understand for people who haven't closely looked at the Blockchain, so I suggest you research it if you want to learn more.
