Last night, Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey tweeted the phrase “running Bitcoin,” as both a nod to computer scientist Hal Finney and to reveal to the world he is running a full node<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Here’s what this means for the first ever cryptocurrency along with a look a how it all started, and where Bitcoin is going next.<\/p>\n

How It All Started: Hal Finney Tweets He’s “Running Bitcoin”<\/h2>\n

Few realized at the time just how significant a tweet from Hal Finney<\/a> dated January 10, 2009 would ultimately be. The tweet containing only the phrase “running Bitcoin” was among the first the internet had ever heard of the cryptocurrency.<\/p>\n

The tweet arrived only seven days following the Genesis Block<\/a>, and Finney himself was the first to ever be on the receiving end of a BTC transaction.<\/p>\n

What Finney was referring to was the fact he was running a Bitcoin “node.” According to Bitcoin.org<\/a>, a full node is\u00a0“a program that fully validates transactions and blocks.”<\/p>\n

Because Bitcoin is operated by no central authority, volunteers like Finney leverage computing power to help keep the network and code in operation.<\/p>\n

Finney is part of a handful of early cryptocurrency supporters that are thought to potentially be Satoshi<\/a>. Finney has since passed, but the legacy he and his tweet left behind have been critical to adoption of the emerging technology.<\/p>\n

How It’s Going: The Torch Has Been Passed To Today’s Tech Leaders<\/h2>\n
Today, the talk of the crypto industry is the fact that Twitter CEO Jack Dorsey has revealed in a tweet<\/a> he is also now “running Bitcoin.” Included in the tweet is a screenshot of the code in action.<\/p>\n
But the significance goes far beyond one of the most prominent tech leaders continuing to promote Bitcoin. What this more accurately represents, is a passing of the torch<\/a> from one of the asset’s most influential pioneers to the next.<\/p>\n
A pioneer is defined as someone who explores something new. By that definition, Hal Finney is undoubtably a pioneer in crypto. But Dorsey, is a pioneer in his own right.<\/p>\n
Dorsey who also serves as the CEO of Square Inc., helped start the trend of corporations adding BTC<\/a> to their treasury reserves. Square also sells Bitcoin directly to consumers, among other related financial services.<\/p>\n

Dorsey doesn’t need to run Bitcoin. He’s doing it because he is, like Hal, pushing the technology forward first and foremost.<\/p>\n
