If you're anything like me and like to dream about what could have been, or if you just like cool history, then you might want to checkout this really great writeup of Bitcoin's prices throughout the years:

This is the best writeup I've been able to find and it has charts to go along with it. Goes back to 2009!

Some gems from the link:

  1. The BitcoinTalk forum member NewLibertyStandard set up New Liberty Standard Exchange, and another forum user - Sirius - sent him 5050 BTC in exchange for $5.02 through PayPal. This puts the first recorded price at which Bitcoin exchanged hands at $0.00099/BTC.
  2. Bitcoin's price never topped $1 in 2010! Its highest price for the year was just $0.39!
  3. On February 9th, 2011, BTC reached a value of USD$1.00 for the first time ever. A few months later, in June, the price of one Bitcoin hit $10, then $30 on Mt. Gox. This represented a 100x appreciation since the beginning of the year, when the price of Bitcoin hovered around $0.30.

As for me... I was investigating mining Bitcoin sometime in 2010. I vividly remember the price of Bitcoin at the time of my research being 5 cents! My thoughts at the time were, "That's gonna take awhile to buy a graphics card with Bitcoin." and "If I mine on these University computers I'll probably get in trouble for the electric bill." I ended up not mining and probably would have sold in order to buy a GPU anyway, but GOD DAMN IT!

Edit: Forgot to mention that at the time I had control of 50 Intel Core2Duo systems for about 3 hours every night. Probably would have been a decent mining rate.
