🗂️ Person|Satoshi Nakamoto
· Key point: On October 31, 2008, an author signing as Satoshi Nakamoto published the Bitcoin white paper, “Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System.”
· Why it matters: Nakamoto’s proposal combined proof of work, a chain of blocks, and block rewards, allowing even unfamiliar nodes to reach consensus on the same ledger.
· Reminder: If you want to really understand Bitcoin, the original white paper is only about 9 pages long, so why not read it yourself?
