[Today marks the 18th anniversary of the Bitcoin white paper] Jinse Finance reports that today marks the 18th anniversary of the Bitcoin white paper. On October 31, 2008, Satoshi Nakamoto published the white paper "Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System" on a cryptography mailing list, proposing an electronic cash solution that eliminates the need for a trusted third party and relies on a P2P network and proof-of-work to solve the double-spending problem. Today marks its 18th anniversary.
