Honoring Hal Finney - Bitcoin's first runner and early pioneer

Whether you're a long-time Bitcoiner or just discovering the movement, this challenge welcomes all to participate and be part of the Bitcoin community's ongoing story. It's more than a challenge—it's a tribute to those who believed in the vision from the beginning.

Halfinny is really amazing. This guy believed Bitcoin could succeed back in the early days. Running to mine? That’s definitely a creative idea. Early believers are always worth respect, no matter how the coin price is. Hey, how do I participate in this activity? Are there rewards? Haha. Doing this event every year is quite interesting, it has a bit of a ceremonial feel. The persistence of that generation of Hal is really no longer visible now. The competition is just a competition; you still have to believe in this thing yourself. I have to join this activity to recharge my faith.
