Satoshi Nakamoto Writes Final Line of Bitcoin Code

On December 15, 2010, Satoshi Nakamoto committed what is widely recognized as their final line of code to the Bitcoin project.
 

The significance of this event lies not only in the cessation of contributions from Bitcoin’s enigmatic creator but also in the symbolic passing of the torch to the community that had begun to form around the cryptocurrency. Nakamoto’s departure from the coding scene did not spell the end for Bitcoin; rather, it heralded the beginning of a new era of decentralized development and stewardship.
