Nice timeline also. And if anyone knows theymos' story (even theymos yourself) as to how you became to know bitcoin so early on it would be much appreciated (maybe make a book about it - I'd pay for that).

Forgive me if I'm wrong... But I read it (somewhere)... we aren't suppose to talk about it?
Also if someone want to stay anonymous we should respect his privacy?

There's probably a lot of things we're probably not supposed to talk about, however, I don't think that's one of them? Why is it a bad idea to look at persoanl accounts of how people got into Bitcoin, everyone has a story, some are good; some are avarage; some are just people getting bored with running the algorithms they're employed to run on government supercomputers...

Does the birth of SHA256 deserve to be on there?

Well I guess no... but it's just a cryptography technique and cryptography dates back to 1900 BCE in Egypt :p

Yeah that is a bit like askiig for everything that has ever been created slightly relevant to be on there.
Like the origin of the mod function or the creation of every cryptographic algorithm that came before SHA256 that SHA256 was an improvement of.
