I am not sold on the idea that, ....Hal Finney wasn't Satoshi ... Roll Eyes

I think a group of people with one spokesperson was responsible for the development of this experiment and then Hal Finney a member of this group, died. They were all part of the Cypherpunks back in the day, so you might find them if you knew who was behind those people using those Bulletin boards back then. Tongue

The Bitcoin protocol is actually a combination of several different concepts and I think many people shared their expertise and knowledge of these different concepts and combined it into one.

Hal Finney might have stored the Private keys to the million some odd coins, but it is lost now. Sad

Neither am I. However, by his own admission Hal wasn't (hence the italics) Satoshi.

Hal did state that he always got the impression that Satoshi was a young man from Japan. Of course this may of been Hal's wit in this regard!

We already know that Bitcoin brought together a working model of numerous previous projects ... Hashcash invented by Adam Back etc.,

A nice new topic on the Cypherpunk's can be found here:

The Cypherpunk mailing list was perhaps, after all, only somewhere that Satoshi announced Bitcoin to his peers.

We cannot simply ignore years of internet history and 'hacker culture' in "Finding Satoshi". The time lines alone and the other projects and groups some of these individuals started or represented present a plethora of other possibilities. Forgetting and/or distancing from politics and agendas ...

you right people don't aware to other projects that done over the web and know history in order to get hint from where everything come, after all I never was thinking that wiki leaks is maybe behind the bitcoin operation but I was sure its team, and cicada 3301 also connected to all this?

after someone directed me to the post of qubit which only from his history i was knowing he dont spread bullshit for sure.
and why he dont connect he was very active? its also very strange...

he and few others here said clealry that xrp is going to crash hard almost in the same time while xrp is going only up slowly from 0.44 to 0.50-0.60 ? and i didnt even know this i just checked his history because i know how much non sense going in places like this forum and found this and was shooked Sad

and yes you right op people dont aware what goes in other places on the web, which hel finney is like the journalist which receive information from name which point to someone which not connceted to this...

after very deep dive all the night from his post i was in huge shook, as wiki leaks projects always under one name and wiki leaks is the biggest project ever done in leaking and the vision of cicada 3301 and wiki leaks the same and focus on cryptography and skills in other verticals.

then i think for my self, they are all connected and wiki leaks is the source for all this big projects , not just big but the biggest done in the entire history.

just know cicada 3301 their english was not native which mean they hide like this them self from tracing and other things.

something very strange is only wiki leaks can organize something like cicada 3301,

someone know when satoshi leave the forum, the dates or other stuff? because cicada is all about hints and symbolic...?
