- We had the opportunity to talk to Adam Back, the man who invented the technology that lead to the creation of Bitcoin, and the CEO of Blockstream.
Many say his contributions to the world are worthy of the Nobel Prize, but we believe they're worthy of much more.
Adam Back is an early pioneer of cryptography, he invented what would come to be known as Proof-of-Work; the fundamental innovation of Bitcoin that makes it possible to create digital scarcity on a decentralised, self-organising network: Bitcoin. He laid the technological underpinning necessary for Bitcoin's invention, so we asked him some questions about his thought process while all this was unfolding, as well as his thoughts on the current state of Bitcoin.

Yes he deserve the nobel prize
#PeacePrizeForDrAdamBack
I done my own research and I come out with 2 strong candidates. He is no 1…
"Any hobbies?"
"I like crypto things, like cryptographic building blocks, then do something interesting which is hard to do, so I'll keep picking away trying to find a solution."
Yes. Yes, you did. :D
... and thus, Bitcoin was born.
Lol hes definitely not satoshi lmao
Of course it wouldn't exist without him, he's Satoshi.
Oh cool so he should be able to sign into.the Satoshi coins. Brilliant!!
Only people who don't understand Bitcoin can say such a thing.
He not
well conducted interview!
Great video quality! You should have asked more about privacy.
There isn’t any
It is always the same thing, same questions we have heard before with Adam Back.. Ask something we don't already know.
awesome cool amazing and legendary points made by mr back.
He was also an operator for a node for email privacy too? Hmm 🤔 lol. Good video ty
Lol he runs side chains and limit the size of blocks. Bitcoin doesn’t function optimally under his oversight. Glad bsv and the original bitcoin design (“bugs” as he calls it) is still growing and around doing 1M tps and able to handle all the data. People who are for small blocks obviously don’t understand how spv nodes work. Take it from a real math and computer science guy, Craig is Satoshi not this goof

Bro your channel has so much good videos unfortunately we are not in a bull
Great video;This dude deserve that monument in Budapest,Dixi
There is no second best
Hijacking Bitcoin is out now. It explains how Bitcoin was hijacked back in 2017. BTC is not what it originally was. Have a read and form your own opinions.
WAY MORE PEOLPE NEED TO KNOW THIS.
Living LEGEND
He’s brilliant
bitcoin would have been at it's full potential and not broken if he didn't exist.
Why don't you interview the person nobody has yet interviewed? Wouldn't he be a very interesting dude? I am talking about the first man to reply to SN on the mailing list.
A central or semi-central form of price enforcement is critical to controlling deflation, deflation is just as bad as inflation for a currency and they go hand in hand. If the system does not control its own price someone else will, (I.e Tether et al printing infinite money to pump and dump the price).
Bitcoin is unaware of its price in dollars or euros or chickens etc. The amount of BTC people are willing to trade for goods and services, including fiat currencies, is entirely set by a free and transparent 24/7 market. The system does not seek or require any external control by definition.
If he is not Satoshi he knows who it is for sure, thats why he said he deleted all emails from Satoshi to protect his identity
He’s terrible at pretending not to be Satoshi
You could also take it to mean he's awkward because peoples questions are assuming he could be satoshi, and its cringe. Like when Jonathon Nolan is being interviewed and they inevitably say something like "So you didn't work with your brother on this, but you guys have had so much success together. What are some challenges, whats different or scary about doing something of your own?" and his credits for 15+ years have already been half his own projects...
Because he's not, that's why.
Satoshi!!
Adam Back is Satoshi. The world has to know what an extraordinary man and invention he made.
How tf did this kid get a interview with SN?
U see how he tries to control his body language and eye movement when asked about the white paper he asked him about inventing POW he immediately starts moving to BTC 😂 great interview
Yes and he immediately responded with the general consensus of criticisms of it, rather than with any praise, or sense of amazement of it, to try and obscure the fact that he wrote it. Imagine how he would have responded to that question if someone, other than him, had solved what he had been trying to do for years and invented Bitcoin.
Lol
Adam was sort of the ‘tim nice but dim’ of digital money…
So Satoshi would like you to believe.
$QNT QUANT overledger network gone be 100x bigger then bitcoin
