Bitcoin Bob, the first Bitcoin mascot, was created 14 years ago by anonymous developers as a friendly and engaging figure to help explain Bitcoin to the public. In the iconic video, Bitcoin Bob interacts with Alice, illustrating how Bitcoin works, how to purchase it, and how to use it in transactions. Their conversation simplifies complex topics like blockchain technology and digital wallets, making Bitcoin more accessible to beginners. Bitcoin Bob’s character symbolizes Bitcoin’s innovative spirit and educational mission, aiming to empower individuals to participate in a decentralized financial ecosystem.
