I like how Mike Hearn was eager to learn all the aspects of bitcoin in its infancy. He was genuinely curious when he sent those emails as far as I can see. Also, Satoshi answered and explained it in detail which makes me think that Satoshi really is a person of high intellect capable of explaining difficult technicalities in simpler terms.
I believe there are also some snippets of conversation here in this forum that Hal Finney posted. I'd try to take a look of it since Hal is one of the genesis miners which Satoshi came in contact with.

There is already one. http://satoshi.nakamotoinstitute.org/Why not work with the owner of that site? Not sure if the emails above is included.

relax dude, these are "pastebin" links which is a well known website for sharing "texts", usually it is code or something similar and in this case they are just email texts! on a side note, what is the satoshi movie?

After reading some of the contents of the email, I couldn't but appreciate what you are doing here to go through a lot of stress for those archives and also for the contributor, he believed so much early at the time even some of us wouldn't have turn another eye to look at what is going on. For him as well as others who contribute to success of this project whether by commenting or by castigating. My sincere appreciation goes to them all in that even though Satoshi is the only one the light is shown upon, the are also expendable.

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.

The initial emails you shared between Satoshi and Mike Hearn are a fascinating read. Thanks for sharing them and best of luck on your project!

something doesn't add up...why share these now??? What does Mike hearn stand to gain here is this an attempt for redemption of sorts? I also wonder if the assumption of 1 core = 1 vote is sound. If the majority of nodes are on standard computers, it seems likely that an attacker could use FPGA or custom ASICs
From mike hearn...to satoshi.....in 2009.... gtfo.... this smells FAKE Look up smokestoomuch - here in the forum - he was the first to consider using GPUs to hash publicly, FPGAs, let alone asics weren't even on anyones radar - so I can't believe this is legit.

This must be a joke: So many questions But it's rare that I encounter truly revolutionary ideas. The last time I was this excited about a new monetary scheme was when I discovered Ripple. If you have any thoughts on Ripple, I'd also love to hear them. Ripple?

Ripple? funny how mike hearn and satoshi are time travellers talking about XRP in 2009 when it wasnt even a thing until 2012 I actually did some research and Ripple started in 2004. The first iteration was RipplePay in 2005. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ripple_(payment_protocol)#Early_development_.282004.E2.80.9312.29

Other than you may aware pizza story for bitcoin and the time bitcoin price costs 1$. Graph and people can provide more details.

That was added when I changed form a good idea to a scam.
