Hal Finney T-Shirts

Description: Hal Finney's iconic "Running bitcoin" tweet from January 10, 2009, is the first public social media post referencing Bitcoin, marking the moment the network became a living, decentralized reality. Days after Satoshi Nakamoto launched the genesis block, Finney became the first person outside of Satoshi to download and run the software. This two-word message signaled to the world that the network was operational, setting the stage for Finney to receive the first Bitcoin transaction of 10 BTC from Satoshi two days later. Today, this quote is sacred crypto lore, celebrated annually through charity runs honoring Finney’s legacy and his battle with ALS.
