THE CAT
WAS HERE
FIRST.
A tiny ASCII cat was recorded in Bitcoin block 322,917 on 28 September 2014. More than a decade later, BITCAT carries that lore onto Solana — with a live WBTC trading pair.

THE ORIGIN // BITCOIN
Before cat coins,
there was just a cat.
On 28 September 2014, a cat-shaped ASCII message was embedded in a Bitcoin transaction included in block 322,917. The Medium history linked by the community describes it as the first crypto-cat. The artwork has remained part of Bitcoin's ledger ever since.

CULTURAL TIMESTAMP
Not invented for a chart.
The 2014 cat existed years before the 2023–2024 wave of large cat-themed crypto memes. That makes the strongest BITCAT narrative historical, not manufactured: the source material predates the token market built around it.

draw the cat.
This decoder turns the historical transaction bytes into readable characters in your browser. Nothing is sent anywhere. It is a small, interactive proof layer rather than a screenshot you have to trust.

THE BTC LOOP // CURRENT MECHANIC
BITCAT meets
Bitcoin liquidity.
The current Solana market for this contract includes a Raydium pool quoted in Wormhole WBTC. Community messaging around BITCAT also describes a hold → earn WBTC mechanic. The site treats that payout claim as a live mechanism that should be verified against current distributor transactions rather than as guaranteed yield.
TWO CLOCKS // ONE CAT
Born on Bitcoin.
Reactivated on Solana.
The historical cat and the current token are not the same event. This clock keeps both dates explicit.
CAT MEME TIMELINE
Who was
first?
The useful comparison is not “which token came first?” but “when did each cat enter crypto culture?” Bitcat's cited on-chain appearance is from 2014, while the major cat-token wave followed much later.

THE CAT HAS CHANNELS
Follow the signal.
$BITCAT is a highly volatile meme token. Historical lore does not create financial value, WBTC pairing does not guarantee rewards, and this site does not promise returns. Verify the contract address and any live reward mechanism before transacting.
