Pretty mucch nothing , just some dumb hashtags.

I don't even know what the purpose of this is. The picture makes no sense.
I think the website is promoting a scam by attempting to claim they worked with Satoshi , Sirius, & Theymos,
as "Founding Members" of Bitcoin Foundation? I actually still don't get it.

My understanding is that Satoshi Nakamoto had nothing to do with the Bitcoin Foundation.

Not sure why it looks different after uploading it  

Anyhow, credits don't go to me. But the original link....I think.

Here's the image re hosted, hope that's ok. It's a graph about prominent early bitcoin participants from what it seems. I don't really think it's all that accurate.

....... and the point is?

its nothing new,
nothing secret

hal finney sirius, satoshi and a few others were around early on.(spring 2009)
theymos, mike hearne, and more got into it a little later (summer 2009)

by november 2009 there were dozens of people..

when will people stop thinking that satoshi was the only guy involved in 2009, and thus the only possible owner of all them coins..

[franky1]

ok i get it
user:the_researcher_1337

is pretending to be a observer who found something.

yet digging in we find all links and info are only a few days old
the eGrowth twitter mentions in another post "Ummm can someone explain this to me, because this seems awfully promising! https://redd.it/3wqijk  Wow!"
which links to a scammer using a newly created pseudonym trying to suggest they are the real satoshi..

all in all i can see the guy behind this forum username the_researcher_1337 and twitter username egrowthhacker and reddit usernames Satoshi-Nakamoto-BTC, the_researcher_1337 are all the same person.. soon to push some investment/moneygrabbing scam, under the pretense they are the founder

Satoshi is a mystery and people are very interested in mystery and secrecy. People by nature are very curious. Everywhere in media, all things are done by one person. Even if there is a whole company behind it 

[shanerc563]

I am sorry but to many people are using information like this to think they have found someone such as Satoshi.  Everyone on here can answer the question as to whether you have found someone this important.  All you have to do is ask the question, "has anyone else come to this conclusion?", if the answer is probably, you best guessed that you are wrong and have found nothing special, interesting, but not special.

I don't understand why people think there is only one founder.... When there was a few people part of the initial development. People need to leave them alone, they did good to this world.

No there was not. There was only one entity called Satoshi Nakamoto which penned the original Bitcoin Whitepaper and wrote the code for the original v0.1 Bitcoin client. He was also the guy that mined the genesis block and did a lot of the early mining. Other people jumped on board to help in the early stages but they only joined after Satoshi wrote the whitepaper and they only contributed to code and hash power after Satoshi released the original client. Therefore they are not founders since they did not create Bitcoin themselves, they are only super early adopters.

satoshi is the founder.. the only one.. the persona is not a group. just one person. coming to light in 2008

there are though, other initial contributors.. like hal finney who was there on day 1 of bitcoins release in 2009, but he is not satoshi, he did not make the white paper of 2008.

in short there is no 'co founder'. just 1 founder and many initial contributors..

Founding Members:  one of the original members of an organization, group, or company.
Founder/Co-Founder: The creator of a company/concept.

So by those definitions Satoshi is the sole founder since he is the only creator creator of the thing we call Bitcoin. The other guys, sirius, hal, etc. are founding members since they are of the original cypherpunks group who were interested in Bitcoin and joined the project after its announcement. They are not the founders.

dont worry the reasearcher 1337 already deleted the tweet and trying to delete the other stuff, now he has been made to look stupid by saying sirius was a founder and not just an initial member/contributor

[mobnepal]

To be true nobody here in forum can be satoshi and from my point of view satoshi seems to be inactive now if we watch the first address being full of bitcoin without any outgoing transaction.

[franky1]

i think that anyone with below 400 activity should be banned from speculating on satoshi.. it would save soo much posts of crap

[maokoto]

I have heard said before that Satoshi may be a group of people and not just one person, which would also remove the notion that there was only one person in 2009...

Image is good for those of us who do not know much about the beginnings
