Ar tai seniausia Satoshi Nakamoto seniausia prarasta Bitcoin kodo versija?

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 čia ir čia.

Satoshi Nakamoto istorija, Jimas Blasko

Šios facebook įrašas, su kuriuo Blasko announced his discovery is full of bitcoin history. For example:

“Satoshi released his first statement on the Cypherpunks cryptography mailer on Jan 8th 2009, with a link to his freshly uploaded Bitcoin.v0.1.rar on soundforge. He had been CPU mining Bitcoin for 5 days (since Jan 3rd) with the difficulty factor of only 0 when he went public on the 8th.”

A time when bitcoin CPU mining was a thing, can you imagine? “Since 2012 it was thought that the raw code and the files were gone as they had been scraped from the soundforge search engine for some reason,” Blasko writes. He half-speculates-half-remembers that it was due to some kind of vulnerability the developers didn’t want out there until the code was stable. Ten years later, it’s harmless. However, can we be sure this “Bitcoin version 0.1, the original pure raw data and files”? It certainly seems that way.

Satoshi Nakamoto asmeniniai užrašai

Už šio kodo slypi žinios. Matyt, „2012 m. Halas Finney ketino išsiųsti tai el. paštu kai kuriems žmonėms“, bet to nepadarė dėl savo sveikatos. Tačiau Satoshi Nakamoto užrašai paima tortą. 

“To those of you that are hardcore cryptoheads like me, this is quite a cool discovery as it has all of Satoshi’s personal notations in the code, and hasn’t been changed by anyone this early. Sure other v0.1’s exist on github but I didn’t find one posted previous to 2016. I know this to be the cleanest original version of Bitcoin!”

For example, Satoshi Nakamoto answers the question: “Why base-58 instead of standard base-64 encoding?”

„- Nenorite 0OIl simbolių, kurie kai kuriuose šriftuose atrodytų vienodai ir galėtų būti naudojami vizualiai identiškai atrodantiems sąskaitos numeriams sukurti.

– Eilutė su ne raidiniais ir skaitiniais simboliais nėra taip lengvai priimama kaip sąskaitos numeris.

– El. paštas paprastai nenutrūksta eilučių, jei nėra skyrybos ženklų.

– Dukart spustelėjus visas skaičius pasirenkamas kaip vienas žodis, jei jis yra raidinis ir skaitmeninis.

Six Months To Mine One Million Bitcoin

Tai įdomu ir skausminga. Pasak Jimo Blasko:

“Satoshi would take at least 6 months to mine 1 million Bitcoin as block 20,000 wouldn’t come until July 22nd 2009 and others like Hal where mining as well, so at least this time or shortly there after. Difficulty was only 1 at the time and basic cpu mining would continue for a couple years.”

Šios bitcoin enthusiast’s facebook post also contains a copy of Satoshi Nakamoto’s original message to the “The Cryptography Mailing List” informing them about bitcoin. It contains this gem of a phrase that relates to the story above:

„Darbo patikrinimo sunkumus padariau juokingai lengva pradėti, todėl kurį laiką iš pradžių įprastas kompiuteris galės sugeneruoti monetas vos per kelias valandas. Bus daug sunkiau, kai dėl konkurencijos automatinis reguliavimas padidins sudėtingumą.

The difficulty adjustment, just one of bitcoin’s many wonders. Thank you, Satoshi!
