Ahh, the whitepaper that sparked my interests on cryptography and bitcoin. It's Nov. 1 for me and he sent that on Nov. 1 in the mailing list, so I guess today is the 7th year of that event. You will easily understand how bitcoin works if you've read the whitepaper. Wink

The official copy (and the original place it was posted) is on the bitcoin.org website --> https://bitcoin.org/bitcoin.pdf
Here is a copy of the original email the Satoshi sent to Cypherpunks with the white paper --> https://www.mail-archive.com/cryptography%40metzdowd.com/msg09959.html

It looks like he sent it on November 1st, so you are a day off. But timezones can mess with that so in some places it might have been the 31st and in others the 2nd.

The link to it that I found shows Satoshi sent the email on 31 October, but the link to it you found shows Satoshi sent the email on 1 November. Maybe the discrepancy is because of time zones, or maybe someone had to review his email before publishing it. I don't know how the Cypherpunks mailing list worked back in 2008.

It is amazing that 7 years ago Satoshi made Bitcoin. And still, no one has been able to make a better cryptocurrency than him. I couldn't imagine the world without bitcoin. I have used bitcoin a lot and it really helps with day to day life. It's great too see it come this far, for the amount of time and the price it has gotten too.

Yeah. Bitcoin has gone further than any fiat currency could in a span of a few years.

Happy birthday bitcoin, and thank you satoshi!

I'm not sure if I agree that a better cryptocurrency hasn't been made. Bitcoin has a lot of flaws, and there are a lot of altcoins out there with fixes to the inherent flaws of Bitcoin. However, the community surrounding Bitcoin has made it impossible for any alternative to take the throne, and I imagine nothing will be able to surpass Bitcoin until the community agrees to back this alternative.

This is happy birthday to Bitcoin white paper or an announcement that Bitcoin will be launched actually and not the real Bitcoin birthday. Real birthday is a day of the launch or when the Genesis block was mined, which is 3rd of January 2009 like people have already said above.

Still this day needs to be remembered as a day when the world has seen first plans of Bitcoin!

Happy birthday to Bitcoin. Seven years from the white paper, but anyone knows which day was mined the genesis block? And if anyone knows how many bitcoins were mined till today?

Ok, here is an alternative link to read the Bitcoin White Paper, you can also earn a few satoshis while reading (no, it has no referral link inside. Adblock highly recommended since their ads tend to get annoying).

Was bitcoin really launched on October 31?, someone could dress a bitcoin costume and celebrate two festivities at once Grin.
That is an interesting website, getting paid to read.

I hope bitcoin/blockchain technology will last for hundreds of years from now.
