Satoshi Nakamoto January 9, 2009 16:08 UTC

Sure thing. If you have any questions, feel free.

Hi, Satoshi, thanks very much for that information! I should have a chance to look at that this weekend. I am looking forward to learning more about the code -

Hal

Transcribed from the header-and-body image CoinDesk published on November 26, 2020, from files Fran Finney provided to Nathaniel Popper in 2014. Subject "Re: Bitcoin v0.1". finney.org received it on Friday, January 9, 2009, at 08:08:35 PST (16:08:35 UTC), and the mailbox separator line reads 08:08:37 PST, the time used here. The message's own Date header reads Sat, 10 Jan 2009 00:43:01 +0800 (16:43:01 UTC), 34 minutes after it arrived, one of the timestamp anomalies CoinDesk discusses. Finney's message, which Satoshi quotes below, is not otherwise preserved; quoted-printable line breaks are rejoined.
