In the whitepaper I wrote 'electronic cash system.' Not 'electronic casino system.' But here we are.Satoshi Nakamoto (not really)
Same letters, different arrangement. The whitepaper said cash. The market heard casino. Close enough.
On October 31, 2008, Satoshi Nakamoto published "Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System" β a nine-page document that would reshape global finance. The whitepaper described a system for electronic transactions without relying on trust or intermediaries, using proof of work and a distributed timestamp server. It remains one of the most influential technical documents ever written, despite being shorter than most restaurant menus.
