One thing that kind of drives me crazy is I don't remember exactly when or how I discovered bitcoin. I know that it was either late 2013 or early 2014, but I can't specifically remember when or how. I have a few email records from late 2014 which prove that I knew of bitcoin from back then, but they do not provide any clues as to how I discovered it.

So how about you, when and how did you discover bitcoin? What were your initial thoughts? Did you think negatively of it at first discovery and change your mind, or did you always think it was a great idea?

This is a good thread, if people are honest and honestly speak the truth about when and how they know about Bitcoin for the first time that can lead to know the truth about those Bitcoin Gremlins who think they have created Bitcoin by themselves. They must speak the truth about their first encounter with Bitcoin.

For myself, I created the word Bitcoin in December 2006. There after I wrote the Bitcoin White Paper and then created the Bitcoin@bitcoin Twitter Account in April 2007. Then I created my P2P Foundation Account in my Japanese Psedonym in April 2007. After that I published the Bitcoin E-cash paper in P2P Foundation and SourceForge before I published the Bitcoin in IRC channel under my other Psedonym Gavin Andreesen. Which later Gavin Bell has adopted as his Names in the Bitcoin Forum. Actually, I gave the Name Gavin Andreen to Gavin Bell.
Ask Gavin Bell who is known as Gavin Andreesen, if he is honest man then he will tell the truth.

Satoshi Nakamoto

Unfortunately there will be plenty of people who came in a little too late which is why there will be pleenty of people who claim they are saothsi like this. The reality is that anyone who claims they are satoshi, needs nothing to obig to prove it. Just sign a message from satoshis address and you are done, its literally a 1 minute job and nothing more. Anyone who doesn't do that? Not satoshi in my mind. You could maybe trolling, or you could be serious about this, whatever you want to call it, but I am %100 guaranteed to not believe anyone who doesn't sign a message from satoshi himself, it needs to be done in order to convince me.
