Me encanta ver como se estrujan el cerebro algunos, jejeje

I've been running it for a couple of weeks now, with about 2000
Bitcoins generated (each successful generation gives 50 Bitcoins). I
wrote a somewhat tongue in cheek article on the cryptography list
estimating that each Bitcoin could be worth ten million dollars, so
this is quite a haul :). (Actually that same reasoning implies that
gold should be worth about $10K per ounce, so maybe it's not so many
orders of magnitude off.)

I have 9 connections at the moment, with my firewall forwarding. Post
your Bitcoin address and I'll see if I can send you some coins.

There's a mailing list at sf.net/project/bitcoin but it doesn't get
much traffic yet.

“I believe this will be the ultimate fate of Bitcoin, to be the ‘high-powered money’ that serves as a reserve currency for banks that issue their own digital cash. Most Bitcoin transactions will occur between banks, to settle net transfers. Bitcoin transactions by private individuals will be as rare as… well, as Bitcoin-based purchases are today.”
 “In March of 2014 we sent Nathaniel Popper those files, documenting email exchanges between Hal and Satoshi,” Fran Finney told CoinDesk. “The files were retrieved from the computer Hal was using for personal email in 2009 and were provided with Hal’s consent.”]

The following two emails are from Satoshi to Finney. In the first one, from Jan. 8, 2009, Satoshi notified Finney about the release of version 0.1 of the Bitcoin software. It was sent just a few hours
It appears that Finney had replied to Satoshi, letting him know that he would try to look at the code over the weekend (Jan. 8 happened to fall on a Thursday).

I'd like to hear some specific criticisms of the code. To me it looks like an impressive job, although I'd wish for more comments. Now I've mostly studied the init, main, script and a bit of net modules. This is some powerful machinery.

That means a lot coming from you, Hal.  Thanks
