Бесплатный фрагмент - Part 3. On the Creation of Bitcoin and the Satoshi Nakamoto Group

Part 3.

About the creation of Bitcoin and the Satoshi Nakamoto group.

Preface.

In the first two parts, not everything is described as the reader would like. In the third part of the book, everything is described more clearly, the main points of the implementation of the Bitcoin project, its predecessor Maketcoin, are shown. There are small memories from my life, technical issues and philosophical reasoning. I wrote it so that it would be interesting to read the first two parts of the book.

Chapter 1.

1998.

And so, in essence, it all started not in 2001, but a little earlier in October 1998, after attending a training on developing super abilities, something like clairvoyance, clairaudience, dreaming, and something like that. After the first visit, I saw a mysterious sign and a small drawing, and later posted it on my Twitter account. A verse was written:

This verse, my first independently written verse, was written at a seminar in the city of Nizhnekamsk in October 1998 and published in a collection of poems published by Nadezhda Vyacheslavovna Charikova and Tatyana Vasilyevna Ermakova, the collection is called With Faith, Hope and Love in the Heart. With this verse, my brainstorming about the creation of Bitcoin began, and everything is subsequently described in my books sold on the Internet.

«Once I came there,

From where thoughts once came to me. And I recognized that world,

That life in which I once lived,

When I came there.

I was asked a question:

«What did you do in that world,

Answer me!?

But we need the truth,

Not your lies!»

«Yes, my life was bad,

Yes, I did nothing good in it,

Yes, nothing. I drank, smoked

And loved little.»

But, soon I returned to life

And with grief in myself I discovered,

That in the world I did nothing that I could

Be content with all my life.

«It’s time for me to take you on,» —

I firmly told myself.

At first I didn’t understand what the question of the drawing was, well I drew it, though I didn’t show it to anyone. Yes, I remember I wrote a poem when I saw the vision and the drawing, later, as you understand, reader, it was Bitcoin. But then, I still had no idea what it was, and the name of the cryptocurrency was not mentioned.

After some time, my father borrowed 15 dollars from me, I don’t know why he needed such a small change, but he said that it was for the future.

In general, for all the questions that I didn’t have an answer to, there is Mom and there are Books. Mom, after my vision of the Bitcoin cryptogram and the poem that was published by the head of the gathering on spiritual development in October 1998.

I was interested in what kind of picture I saw. Yes, we also had computer cafes, mostly guys played various games there, like Counter-Strike. I sometimes went there too, I was more interested in how the games were arranged and written. There was no computer at home, in the same 1998, after entering college to study law, I got a job with my father as a lawyer to practice more in jurisprudence and study the Computer, the same games, office programs, Windows itself, then still 95.

There were no teachers or lecturers in computer literacy in my city. I approached everything myself or read some books, mainly knowledge was gained by studying programs and languages, through installation from a disk to a computer.

At my father’s work, I also got acquainted with Painton (graphic designer). There was no opportunity to constantly be near the computer. Therefore, somehow, somehow, pulled out for myself knowledge of computer technologies of that time.

Many laughed, many asked questions, why I needed computer technologies. They said that I needed to develop in the field of jurisprudence. But I was interested in developing both in jurisprudence and in computer technologies. But I didn’t want to go to college, to the computer technology department. Because I was already studying to be a lawyer.

I also had envious people who found out that I had started studying computers. They bought computers for themselves and also studied computers. Some of them were absent for a long time, some stubbornly studied computers. Basically, in the future, everything remained on games for them.

I still have notebooks from my school days, when we studied computer science at school. There were mainly various screensavers for computers written in BASIC, Lexicon, DOS.

I also didn’t start studying law in college, but studied as I wanted. I was also interested in law. There I met many guys and girls. In terms of age, I was 2 years older than them. They also somehow found out that I was studying computer languages in parallel. I myself didn’t tell anyone that sometimes in my dreams I see various moments of the creation of Bitcoin.

Chapter 2.

2001.

When I was studying in Naberezhnye Chelny, our family friends had a computer, they introduced me to the game Heroes of Might and Magic. The strategy was interesting and I played it for a very long time. I mainly played for the Light Forces of Good. When I was alone, I stayed in the room, I looked at the files, it was interesting how the game was written and in what languages. I tried to make codes for passing the game, when my friends found out that I was trying to make a code for passing the game, they suggested some codes. Of course, I found a lot of things on the Internet. But after entering the code, I was no longer interested in playing. By the way, it was with them that I got acquainted with the languages Python and Java.

Friends, they told me that I went to study in the wrong place, that I needed to study to be a programmer.

In October 2001, at home the question arose that a computer was needed at home. Dad said that it would be okay if he gave me the money made from the 15 dollars, and I would buy a computer with it. Together with my brother and in the uncle’s car, we went and bought a computer (Celeron (a weak version of Pentium 2).

Windows 98 was already installed on the computer, and I installed office programs myself. Soon we connected the Internet, I paid for the Internet myself from my salary.

One evening, I went online and found a forum at that time, there was a need to register, I saw that I had to enter an email address and passwords. I probably spent about 30 minutes making my first email address, but it looked like this. I received a greeting from the list.ru team. Then I registered it on the forum. On the forum, I found a poetry section and met a girl named Elena and a guy named Anton there. They created a poem, and later they made a whole song out of this poem. My words in this poem were «-prove. — I will prove.”, well, some other phrases.

The next day (October 31 2001), I also went online in the evening, but there were no letters on the email address. I became interested in making my own email client (website), I started my search on the Internet. Then I found the site gmail.com. I decided to register and made myself another email address. I will explain why such an email address. Through a translator that was bought from the Euroshop company. I translated my last name first from Russian to English, then from English to French, then from French to Chinese. This is how the word minichaina came about.

After the greeting message from gmail.com. I received a message from a person named Hull Finney.

— Hello. — Hull wrote.

— Hello. — I wrote.

Then the correspondence was not long, in English, he wrote that he had been looking for me on the Internet for a long time and that I was writing words in English with mistakes. I said that I was communicating through a translator. He said that he would try to find a translator, which he later sent. We also talked about a lot with Hull, in particular, about what cryptocurrency is and why it will be called Bitcoin. I describe this in parts 1 and 2 of my books.

Also on November 3-4, 2001, a greeting message «hello everyone» was written in the Rust language, it looked like «26350564236».
