Hi,
it is possible to download an old version of bitcoin, as bitcoin 0.2 for windows?
The old download links:
http: // sourceforge.net/projects/bitcoin/files/Bitcoin/bitcoin-0.2.0-win32-setup.exe/download
are no longer available.
Thanks!
You could find old versions here:
https://satoshi.nakamotoinstitute.org/code/Very old nodes wouldn't be able to find peers, to connect, to deal with blocks bigger than half megabyte, or finish downloading the blocks in reasonable time.
Versions prior 0.2.9 would not work without changes in p2p protocol.
