Breaking News: New TIME Magazine Cover: The Dire Wolf Has Returned After More Than 10,000 Years.

This isn't a science fiction movie, this is real life.

Colossal Biosciences has resurrected the dire wolf after more than 10,000 years.

This is completely insane.

The image mentions "Satoshi's" 50th birthday because, according to data recorded on the P2P Foundation profile, Satoshi Nakamoto—the pseudonymous creator of Bitcoin—gives his birth date April 5, 1975. This implies that he would have turned 50 in 2025.

However, this date does not necessarily reflect his true birthday, as his real identity remains unknown. It is believed that he may have chosen this date symbolically, as it coincides with an important historical event: Executive Order 6102, signed on April 5, 1933, in the United States, which outlawed the private ownership of gold. This fact resonates with the principles behind Bitcoin, which seek to decentralize and protect wealth from state control.

Therefore, Satoshi's "birthday" is more of a symbolic tribute than a celebration based on verifiable facts.

Imagine you have an apple and you give it to me. Now I have the apple, and you don't. It's easy to know that the apple is mine because you have it in your hand, and I saw it pass from you to me. We don't need anyone else to tell us that the apple is mine.

Now, if instead of an apple, we're talking about a digital currency like Bitcoin, it's a little more complicated. How do you know that the digital currency I gave you is yours and only yours? I could have made copies of the currency and given it to other people as well.

To solve this problem, there's something called a blockchain, which is like a giant ledger where everyone records their transactions. If I give you a digital currency, everyone in the ledger knows and records it. That way, I can't give you a currency I don't have or give it to someone else at the same time.

So, Bitcoin is like a digital currency that lives in this giant ledger, and everyone can see who has it at any given time
