16 years ago, Satoshi Nakamoto releases the Bitcoin white paper to the cryptography mailing list, marking its official introduction into the world.
Satoshi introduces Bitcoin as an electronic cash system with several important properties: double-spending is prevented with a peer-to-peer network; no mint or other trusted parties; participants can be anonymous; new coins are made from Hashcash style proof-of-work; the proof-of-work for new coin generation also powers the network to prevent double-spending.
The paper is available at:

It's tomorrow!
ahah true... The future is now!
Um, not tomorrow...?
yes, get ready!
lol... nice psyop tho
Well, better to set the right values up. It's good timing to remind everyone in advance, before the halloween (that's a psyop) noise start reaching the masses.
Didn’t know this. I will never think of Halloween the same way again
Hallowing is for slaves... Start celebrating the white paper instead ;)
Wish I would of read it 16 years ago and bought 40 bucks worth of bitcoin
it was riskier... sticking to the right values helps make the right decisions at the right time
There is a joke out there somewhere...lol
tell the joke! I don't know it
Do central banks have a white paper 🤫
