Former Bitcoin Developer Shares Early Satoshi Nakamoto Emails

Satoshi Nakamoto is Bitcoin's anonymous creator and absentee head of state. In the years since she (or he, or they) disappeared into the ether and left the technology in the hands of a few high-profile developers, Nakamoto's words have become nigh-gospel for some in the Bitcoin world.

On Friday, a user going by "CipherionX" on the Bitcointalk forum published five emails allegedly between Satoshi Nakamoto and former Bitcoin developer Mike Hearn. In an email to Motherboard, Hearn confirmed that he shared the emails with the user. While Hearn himself, who was one of the earliest Bitcoin developers, has previously quoted most of the juicy bits from his correspondence with Nakamoto, it appears to be the first time much of the material has been shared in full.

Thanks for the link man. Im grateful that i do see some words from the creator of Bitcoin. Its really nice to see some interactions from him to other developers of bitcoin on those earlier years. For now Bitcoin is really successful and those hopes and things that satoshi said im sure it would really happen regarding on that VISA thing, it can possibly surpass that with fraction of the cost.

Craig Wright many times tried to promote himself as the bitcoin creator but facts were all against him. He is not so well respected now in the bitcoin world. I will only believe someone is Nakamoto when he,she or they will post a signed message from an address we all know it belongs to Satoshi Nakamoto himself or herself or themselves.

Its too bad some of the more trustworthy and legitimate figures in the bitcoin community like Mike Hearn left.

We would really use their input and commentary on many issues like forks.
