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!

The early version's won't connect to the network anymore and you will run into issues with them is there a reason you need to use such a old version of bitcoin?
I would advice using the latest version available the older versions apart from not working now have security vulnerability's in them.

No, I don't want to use that old version for transactions, but only as "historically" curiosity . I'd like to run this program on my pc and to check all the setting also offline

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.

Have you tried to check the Bitcoin core Github page? They have a list of the old version of the Bitcoin core. Anyway, I found the Bitcoin 0.2.0 under this page below - https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/releases?after=v0.2.12

If you want to go even further into the past take a look at this thread. It is one of the oldest I know that mentions the early releases. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=68121.0The late Hal also made a post there.

Both the 32bit and 64bit versions can be found here https://bitcoin.org/bin/bitcoin-core-0.12.0/. I didn't try if the links are still up or not. If you want more info about the release you can read this release info. https://bitcoin.org/en/release/v0.12.0#how-to-upgrade

That is actually a newer version; after v0.9.4, Bitcoin's versions continued to v0.10.0 and forward. Just like your link said, v0.12.0 was released on 2016, while 0.2.0 was released on 2009.

I guess you could find early versions on the GitHub repository. However, as far as I know this won't connect to the network. Unless you modify it somehow. Here is the GitHub Repo you can find older versions easily: https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin

Perfect! Many thanks!!! I also downloaded the source codes from the others links that you sent me, where are present the old versions as 0.2.x and compiled for windows with gcc, according the instructions in the folder, but it is a little bit difficult, because it is necessary to install different libraries (OpenSSL, Berkeley DB, etc.). Thank you very much to all. Bye!
