It has been 14 years since the first recorded exchange from bitcoin to usd dollar

Oct. 12, 2009

Martti Malmi, a software developer from Finland, who helped Satoshi develop Bitcoin during its first two years of operation, sends 5,050 bitcoins for $5.02 to NewLibertyStandard, one of the regulars in a bitcoin forum, making the first price mediated through an exchange a bargain basement price of $0.00099 per bitcoin. In other words, the price was about one-tenth of one cent. The transaction is realized using PayPal. The bitcoins are used to seed a new bitcoin exchange site called New Liberty Standard.

While Bitcoin was officially launched on January 3, 2009, it’s tough to find any standard pricing before mid-2010. That’s because there weren’t exchanges in the same way that there are today. However, data became available in July 2010 and continues to this day.
