Hal Finney passed away Thursday morning

Hal finney passed away Thursday morning, it is a big loss for the Bitcoin community and humanity in general, he was the first adopter, he was the first one to run the bitcoin software after Satoshi and he was the first developer and cryptographer involved with Bitcoin after Satoshi.

Rest in peace.

Nice article and a very important contributor to Bitcoin (especially because he was the first person with the necessary crypto skills to actually review and help improve the code).

I do not know who he is until I googled him. Didn't know Satoshi had a beta test partner during development. Rest in peace Hal.

I've never heard about this person. But...rest in peace.

If he is revived in the future, we will see him again. Just curious if he plan to keep some coins with him.

What value will bitcoin be when technology is advance enough to revive him.

The synchronicity with this Ice Bucket Challenge thing is staggering, from a metaphysical perspective it's almost as if the whole world is acknowledging him and celebrating his pass-over with a ritual.
