“I’m broke, but I’m happier than I’ve ever been.” - A. Antonopoulos


Wow, this guy has really been through a lot over the years of his life, and bitcoin seems to be the ultimate manifestation of everything he has ever worked towards. Truly an amazing man of integrity and intelligence, and this interview seems to go quite a bit deeper into his personal history than any that I have seen thus far. Let me know what you think of the man, the myth, and perhaps we can finally give this guy a proper nickname.

Is he the Socrates of Bitcoin?





Each block is stacked on top of the previous one. Adding another block to the top makes all lower blocks more difficult to remove: there is more "weight" above each block. A transaction in a block 6 blocks deep (6 confirmations) will be very difficult to remove.

Bumping this because I got the date wrong at first. This is a brand new article about the early life in Greece and decentralized networks of Andreas Antonopoulos. It is amazing how all the random threads of his experiences have tied together perfectly wrapped around bitcoin.

Great article, I think that many of us can relate to Antonopoulos' experiences. We've worked for income and hoped that our efforts are not too damaging to society. Bitcoin allows us to strive for enabling society instead. No wonder the rush of developers.
