I, like every other Newbie, couldn’t read/post on https://bitcointalk.org/captions.php, so I thought of a thread open to newbies view, and that would hold the good memory of the forum.

There have been some exceptional posts on Bitcointalk, that has been influential not only to the development of the forum but also to the development of Bitcoin, Ethereum and the World.

I’m going to start with these few very popular posts, and hope to see other posts that seem hidden but has been influential.

I release these images into the public domain (copyright-free).  I request that derivative works be made public domain.
