In Satoshi I Trust

Quote from: konradp on August 08, 2014, 02:31:47 AM

Hi,

Just out of curiosity, I wanted to see the very first posts by Satoshi Nakamoto, and the post when he says "Good bye". And it looks like it's impossible?

Firsts posts here look like quite advanced for me. Looks like the discussion started somewhere else, and indeed, in his first post on this forum ( https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.28 ) he says:

Quote

Welcome to the new Bitcoin forum!

The old forum can still be reached here:
http://bitcoin.sourceforge.net/boards/index.php

But the sourceforge.net forum page displays 404 error. So are the first posts lost forever? Sad

And then, his last post here : https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.29479

Looks like he was quite active in the last days of December 2010. And he suddenly disappeared? Without any information, "good bye" or something? Or am I missing something?

This is the link:

^^^This. It did not start in forum post. It started in an email to the cryptographic mailing list.

Yes, I've seen it (thanks coin.cat), but... still I can't find the ultimate answer (except of course 42) to my question - how and where did early developers find Bitcoin. OK, so they were subscribed to a mailing list, how did they find it? And... is it really all?

Edit: Mailing lists? In 2008?

@Eal F. Skillz

Your post pointed me to http://sourceforge.net/p/bitcoin/mailman/bitcoin-list/ ( first post 2009-01-30 02:39:29 ) - it's a good start. But where it really started?

His first posts are in the Staff Forum, that's why you can't see them. But theymos posted pdf files here:

Can I have screenshots for my Bitcoin history scrapbook?

Thanks!

But his very very first posts, probably not on this forum, aren't available? I mean, I'm wondering how the first Bitcoin adopters discovered it. I read somewhere that it was on some kind of a cryptography-related discussion group or IRC, do you know something about it?

There's also a book:

http://www.bookofsatoshi.com/

That's interesting too, but paying for a book about a man who created Bitcoin sounds strange for me:)

Why? Do you have an idea how much work it is to write a book? It can take months or even years and the author taking a risk that it won't sell. I think we're too spoiled by free offers.

Yes, the same thought came to my mind seconds after I wrote my post:). You're right.

The Nakamoto Institute may have information that interests you. A copy of the first posts of Satoshi discussing bitcoin.

Thanks! I didn't know about it. Interesting initiative.

He came back to say: "I am not Dorian Nakamoto" on March 7, 2014
http://p2pfoundation.ning.com/profile/SatoshiNakamoto

Who knows one day he will be known but I like it the way it is: a mysterious myth.

Yes, I know about it. But I was thinking about leaving this forum by him in the end of 2010.

Edit: Me too, I don't really want to know who he is. It's just about his first and last post anywhere.
