We are not sure exactly. The effects of ASMR have been known for centuries. However it is only very recently in this 21st century that it has been named and properly studied.
ASMR, or Autonomous Sensory Meridian Response, was not "discovered" at a particular point in time. The term itself was coined in 2010 by Jennifer Allen, and the phenomenon gained popularity through online communities. However, people have reported experiencing the sensations associated with ASMR for much longer, with anecdotal accounts dating back decades.
Psychologists have only just recently began taking ASMR seriously. ASMR causes brain tingles which feel like your brain is being psychologically massaged. These brain tingles are often referred to as "Braingasms". Though they are nothing like an orgasm at all. Other effects are relaxation, calmness and sleepiness. Scientists have discovered that ASMR and meditation are extremely similar. The popularity and recognition of ASMR was spread through social networks. Mostly Youtube.
Awareness of ASMR has mostly spread through the use of social networking online. The most popular platform for ASMR experiences seems to be Youtube. There are also occasionally events related to ASMR, such as "National Hug Your Brain Day.
Since this is still being studied, we are not yet entirely sure why. It is suggested that ASMR only works on sensitive people. So far we have discovered that ASMR and meditation are actually very similar and produce similar results. In order for meditation to work, the individual needs to be open minded, so maybe you would need to be open minded for ASMR to work too.
It is difficult to say who discovered it, because we have known about the effects of ASMR for centuries, it has only recently been named and recognised by scientists, so we do not know a great deal about it right now.

Some studies have been conducted by various European and American institutions and universities. ASMR is difficult to research because the effects of it are psychological rather than physical. An example of study is the Sutter Neuroscience Institute, which have found out that ASMR can be used as an excellent psychological sleep aid. Psychologists such as Dr. Michael Yasinski have also discovered that the effects of ASMR are extremely similar to meditation. When tested, people exposed to meditation and ASMR showed the same psychological effects. More studies are ongoing.
