Just a short question, does anyone know how much did it cost to mine 1 Bitcoin back in 2009?
In the very early days of Bitcoin, there were no exchanges like the ones we have today. However, there was at least one exchange established in the first year since Bitcoins inception. The BitcoinTalk forum went online in late 2009, and soon enough, one regular member proposed the idea of an exchange where people could buy and sell Bitcoins for fiat currency.
Keep in mind that this was when the block reward for mining a Bitcoin was 50 BTC, and there were very few people mining. The BitcoinTalk forum member NewLibertyStandard set up the New Liberty Standard Exchange, and another forum user named 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 per BTC12.
So, back in 2009, it cost very little to mine 1 Bitcoin less than a penny! However, keep in mind that the landscape has changed significantly since then, and the cost of mining a Bitcoin today is much higher due to factors like increased competition, energy costs, and the decreasing block reward over time.
