🗓️ A Note from Bitcoin History
This week marks 15 years since Bitcoin’s creator, Satoshi Nakamoto, was last publicly active online.
Satoshi’s final known communications took place on public forums and emails related to Bitcoin development. In those messages, he discussed recent software updates he had implemented and referenced future improvements that were planned for the Bitcoin protocol.
Shortly after, Satoshi stepped away from public involvement, handing greater responsibility to early contributors and developers. Since then, Bitcoin has continued to evolve as an open-source, decentralized network, maintained by a global community rather than a single individual.
Satoshi Nakamoto’s disappearance remains one of the most unique moments in technology history — reinforcing Bitcoin’s core principle:
👉 no central authority, no single point of control.
More than a decade later, Bitcoin continues to operate exactly as designed — permissionless, censorship-resistant, and decentralized.
