BitCoin History:
 
05.10.2009
official exchange rate was the following: $1 = ฿1,309,03 (so ฿1 = $0,00076). Satoshi weren't a thing. (one-hundred-millionth of a bitcoin); mining was something you did for he love of the blockchain not for the profit. Hardware and electricity bills were expensive.

Mid 2010:
$0.08 = ฿1

Late 2010:
$0.5 = ฿1

2011:
09.02.2011 - $1 = ฿1
02.06.2011 - $10 = ฿1
09.06.2011 - $31.911 = ฿1
12 June 2011 -  $10 = ฿1 (First major correction)

Late 2011:
$10 = ฿1

2012relative stability in the $8 range.

2013:

17.11.2013 -  $503.1 = ฿1— another rapid rise to:


Late November 2013:
another rise to $1,242 for ฿1!
Then Bitcoin became really jerky:
02.12.2013 — a steep decline to $1,000 for ฿1,
17.12.2013 — a two-fold decline to less than $600 for ฿1! (Correction)
(No to dissimilar as 2017)

2014:
A meh! year for Bitcoin. 
1–5 January when Bitcoin rose from $770 to $950, then
February, it fell back to $700  
steady decline — by the end of December, it lost the foothold and fell as low as $310, 
that is, three times its highest (at that time) rate!

2015:
In mid-January, the rate had reached a new low of $177. 

3 March it gradually rose to $281. 
The growth continued until October 2017 and exceeded $500
but went down a little bit in December to the $355 range.

16 December, 2015, Bitcoin's exchange rate grew to $455.99
