The Bitcoin network has achieved a significant milestone by processing its one billionth transaction, a momentous event 15 years after its inception. This landmark transaction was recorded in block 842,241 at 9:34 pm UTC on May 5, according to data from Clark Moody’s Bitcoin dashboard. Although this achievement underscores Bitcoin’s enduring popularity, it notably excludes transactions conducted on the Lightning Network, a layer 2 protocol for Bitcoin.
