Charles Hoskinson has previously posted about archiving Satoshi's e-mails with other early bitcoin developers and users[1].  Many people forwarded their e-mail conversations with Satoshi to an e-mail account Charles created (satoshiarchive at gmail.com), with the intention of making them available to the public.  Unfortunately, Charles never made those public, and now refuses to share what he obtained with anyone else in the bitcoin community.

If you were one of those people who were fortunate enough to have had e-mail conversations with Satoshi, I would truly appreciate if you could forward those to me to help preserve bitcoin history.

I am also interested in anything else from early bitcoin times (2008-2011) such as IRC logs, e-mails with other early developers and users, etc.  
I will be doing my best to ensure there is no information that can be used to identify Satoshi before sharing.

Same deal as before: If there is anything in the e-mails that you would not like to be made public, then please encase the text in <OMIT>,</OMIT> tags.

Thank you!

I will never understand why the bitcoin community insists on constant personal attacks.  The divisiveness is getting tiring.


Why haven't you shared your archive?  In your original post, you very clearly gave the intention that what you received you would then share with the bitcoin community.  Why suddenly keep that to yourself?  Those who shared with you intended for those e-mails to be published.  We would love to see what you have.  If you'd like, I will gladly help you go through the e-mails line by line and analyze them to determine if they seem safe enough to share (just like I did with Mike's e-mails).

I appreciate your perspective, Greg.  I had these e-mails for a couple of weeks now, and I took the time to analyze each sentence closely before sharing.  I was unable to find anything that points in one person's direction, although that's not to say there isn't something there.  There's just so much history in these e-mails that I really didn't want to disappear.

Mike shared the first one publicly before (https://bitcoinfoundation.org/forum/index.php?/topic/54-my-first-message-to-satoshi/), and has quoted bits and pieces of some of the others.

He actually thought they had been published already.  He had previously forwarded them to Charles Hoskinson (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=191508.0), who never did anything with them.

I'm learning that, even though hundreds of people have spent countless hours speculating about Satoshi, few people actually asked the original developers to share what they knew.

The e-mails say nothing about XRP - only Ripple.

Thank you.  Many early bitcoin developers are more than happy to share, while others are more reluctant, and some even combative at times.  I really appreciate those like Mike Hearn (and many others) who have been willing to share with me what they know.

I'm in the process of developing a website dedicated to early bitcoin history.  Mike Hearn was gracious enough to contribute to the project by sharing his e-mail conversations with Satoshi.  Since these are never-before-seen writings of Satoshi, I thought others would enjoy having access to them now, rather than waiting for the website to go live.
