The first cryptocurrency, before bitcoin, was called Bit Gold. It was created by Nick Szabo, a computer scientist, lawyer, and cryptographer who is known for his work on digital contracts and digital currency.
Szabo first introduced the concept of Bit Gold in a 1998 blog post. In the post, he outlined how Bit Gold would work and how it could be used as a decentralized digital currency.
