Do you know what mailing list he was talking about? Was it the cypherpunks mailing list? If it was, in that listserv archive you shared, the archive for 2007 and 2008 aren't there.

Wow. So that was the original announcement of Bitcoin? It's like I'm taking a history tour on this thing. I followed that email down to the registration for the cryptography mailing list. I registered to it. I think cryptography will be something very interesting. Hopefully this list is still active. Now to register for the cypherpunks mailing list.

I actually hope he stays a secret ... because this endless discussion of who is Satoshi is one of the best parts of Bitcoin.

I agree now actually. I'll adjust my time to studying C++ and cryptography.

EDIT: Unfortunately the last node to the cypherpunks mailing list is down. So is the LNE node. Oh well.
