Found an awesome bit of software called Gource that creates a video timeline of development history from the changelog of a Git/SVN project and of course the first thing I pointed it at was Bitcoin's GitHub repo. Video (and a short writeup of the video) can be found at: http://codinginmysleep.com/2012/01/bitcoin-development-history-visually/Points of interest include 1:57, the first appearance of Gavin Andresen (July 2010) and a furious explosion of development at 4:27 (April 2011). Enjoy! |

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, but full nodes are more resource-heavy, and they must do a lengthy initial syncing process. As a result, lightweight clients with somewhat less security are commonly used.

Insanely awesome, never heard of Gource before.
It's a pretty cool project. My only major criticism is that it takes some doing to get video out of it in any usable format without filling your hard disk to the brim, processing, reprocessing and encoding, but it renders using OpenGL so I just fired up a copy of FRAPS. |

Without understanding the details, even I can see there is a lot of evolving going on that is making Bitcoin something wonderful.

Any significantly advanced cryptocurrency is indistinguishable from Ponzi Tulips.

If you play it in reverse it looks like Satoshi cleaning his house after a big internet party.

Something interesting in the video is the first person seen tweaking the code, username sirius-m. Looking at the developer page, this user is listed 3rd. How come sirius-m is seen messing with code before Satoshi? https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Developers |

How come sirius-m is seen messing with code before Satoshi? https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Developerscause he created the github repo nad migrated code from sourceforge. Look at the dates and read old forum posts, it started at almost a year after bitcoin was launched. |

Bitcoin is the ultimate freedom test. It tells you who is giving lip service and who genuinely believes in it.
... ... In the future, books that summarize the history of money will have a line that says, “and then came bitcoin.” It is the economic singularity. And we are living in it now. - Ryan Dickherber... ... ATTENTION BFL MINING NEWBS: Just got your Jalapenos in? Wondering how to get the most value for the least hassle? Give BitMinter a try! It's a smaller pool with a fair & low-fee payment method, lots of statistical feedback, and it's easier than EasyMiner! (Yes, we want your hashing power, but seriously, it IS the easiest pool to use! Sign up in seconds to try it!)... ... The idea that deflation causes hoarding (to any problematic degree) is a lie used to justify theft of value from your savings.
