The legend of Satoshi Nakamoto lives on. A bitcoin enthusiast that goes by Jim Blasko claims to have found “the lost Bitcoin v0.1 raw data and files.” Skepticism would be the normal reaction to outlandish claims like these, but here’s the kicker: the code is still in Soundforge. That is, Satoshi Nakamoto’s original code disappeared from search engines and was considered lost for ten years, but “using some browser hacking” Blasko realized the files were still up there. How can anyone fake that kind of discovery?
According to Jim Blasko, “the official oldest known uploaded copy of Satoshi’s Bitcoin v0.1” is here and here.
