About this episode

How Bitcoin was changing in fall 2010 and what it means for today.

This episode is sponsored by NYDIG.

Eleven years ago, on Dec. 13, 2010, Satoshi Nakamoto posted on the BitcoinTalk forum for the last time. He would pop up in emails here and there for a few more months, but for the majority of the Bitcoin community, he was gone. In today’s episode, NLW explores how the Bitcoin community was changing, and how the legacy of that period remains with us today.
