Title: Do you really think a man would foresee the future? Post by: brucesewell on March 08, 2014, 10:52:35 AM Of course he would use his own name because he was only contributing an idea. His paper even did not name it bitcoin.

I don't understand how hard this is to think through. Title: Re: Do you really think a man would foresee the future?

Post by: ning on March 10, 2014, 05:37:10 AM There are many consequential inventions that unfold themselves beyond the wildest imaginations of their inventors, like computers, the internet, nuclear energy, and even the laser. Bitcoin, could be one of them.
