The last known Satoshi email was first sent to Mike Hern, one of the Bitcoin contributors and former Google Engineers in April 2011.
By that time, bitcoin had been running for 840 days, or less than two and a half years. Satoshi earlier said that he had been working on the design of bitcoin since 2007 – so he was active in bitcoin development for almost four years.
Hern, which has since stepped back from bitcoin, kept up Email In December 2010, with Satoshi, even after his last post on Bitcointock.
“Satoshi did not leave the community due to Gavin’s visit to CIA. He had stopped posting publicly by the end of 2010, but was ready to continue to email back and forth with me after months,” Hern wrote On Reddit in 2017. “I realized that this situation would probably not remain, that is why I made him black with technical questions.”
The creator of Bitcoin recently encouraged other community members to take over, a step that made Gavin Andresson stepped as a lead maintenance. With the hern, Andresen will move forward events Forking of bitcoin core for bitcoinx, which had an increased block size range that grows up every two years.
This was the first great civil war of bitcoin, as Painted By mainstream media. Harn was sold By January 2016, all his bitcoins, when the coins were less than $ 500, and eventually went to the construction of enterprise distributed laser cord as the lead platform engineer of R3, a situation that he Left In 2021.
“Can cryptocurrency work? Surely, I believe it requires widespread competition between various coins, which we now have,” Hern wrote At the end of 2020. “Unfortunately when it comes to currencies, competition works against achieving important mass and none of them have managed to achieve the same levels of awareness.”
“I clearly plugged it for many years, but fundamentally my reply on how you can build a global consensus network, in which people look peacefully in coexisting the bitcoin foundation or Corda Network, and it was a lot of suit-wear that is ever accepted by the Cryptocurrency community.”
Certainly, we all have adequately introduced the reasons for the departure of Satoshi. WikiLeaks may be “kicking of hornet’s nest” OneAndresen’s Go to cia It may also happen – Satoshi sent his last email to the Hern that he had accepted the agency’s invitation shortly after Andracene disclosed.
And perhaps, Satoshi actually made other balls in the air. He used a similar language 11 months ago when he told through Martti Malmi. Email That he was “busy with other things for the last one and a half months to” explain his absence “.
Maybe, Satoshi knew that among Cipherpanks, with their energetic chaos and suits, there is going to be tension with their rules and professional hierarchies, and just thought it easier to return some video tapes. Who can blame them?
Rizo, bitcoin historian view
History goes there again, always rhyme. As David notes, the community that Satoshi left can be alive and well, but again, therefore, there is a underlying demand for bitcoin, “with” with “with” “” with “” “Positive response loop“He imagined working on geopolitical scale.
Yesterday, Shockwaves were sent to the entire industry when it was discovered that SoftBank, Cantor Fitzgerald and Tether Allegedly Stockpile BTC, preparing a $ 3 billion funnel bitcoin in a new firm running a Strategy Playbook.
The numbers alone are shocked. Can we have another strategy? To capture 500,000 or more bitcoins, ETF as well as another multi-billion company racing?
Definitely, Player The involved suggestions are sufficient to make it admirable. The only question is how much bitcoin they can buy? Regardless, this is another example of how Satoshi is pull up – And its foresight – only looks more impressive over time.
