Brings up an interesting question. Leonardo Da Vinci came up with the concept of the helicopter centuries before technology was able to build one.
Was he the father of the helicopter or just someone who was ahead of his time.
Satoshi created BTC, but the concept of digital money using different words and concepts was around for a long time before that. Is there a definitive 1st mention of digital money somewhere?

Please add the source for a better understanding. I know a couple of people or groups of people have tried to create digital cryptocurrency but not succeed. I might be wrong but that's what I know. Satoshi is the first person who succeeded to create digital currency through Blockchain technology which is called Blockchain.
let's talk about the man who built the concept of bitcoin. David Chaum.
Pioneered the concept of blockchain technology you mean.There are lots of history leading up to the creation of Bitcoin by Satoshi and that is definitely not disregarded when discussing cryptic financial technology, this however does not mean David Chaum built Bitcoin; Satoshi did.
It is said that science precedes products by several decades While we are today talking about the Blockchain revolution, let's talk about the man who built the concept of digital currency. David Chaum, as we know him was a professor who created concept of vault system in 1979 during his doctorate.
Infact he held the first annual crypto and cryptology conference, called 'CRYPTO' back in 1980.
He introduced the concept digital cash on basis of blind signature and group signatures, a form of basic decentralised ledger which is the basis of Blockchain today..
He was so ahead of his time and i think this guy does deserve respect for being the father of Blockchain as i believe he is known
