Tough to decide which bips to include. 39 is huge. I like how you segment the thousands though cause. Maybe the day bitcoin was first mentioned on CNBC? Ley bitcoin?

Thank you! Initially, I didn't want to include any other BIPs besides BIP1 to highlight the emergence of the BIP system. But after thinking about it, it's true that BIP39 as well as the BIPs dedicated to mnemonics and derivation have disrupted the ecosystem. Do you have a link and/or date for the day when Bitcoin was first mentioned?
