Do you remember that quirky vending machine from 2012? It sold Bitcoin for just $7, which was big news at the time. Buyers not only received a physical Bitcoin as a souvenir, but the machine also provided the corresponding private key, allowing you to truly control and extract a real Bitcoin. This creative design marked the early stage of Bitcoin's transition from geek culture to mainstream awareness, and also reminds us of how crazy and imaginative this asset history has been.

7 yuan each? Damn, I feel so regretful just thinking about it now. If I had kept them until now...
