Did you know Satoshi had alternative names for Bitcoin? Netcoin, e-cash & supercoin! 1 day before registering Satoshi registered http://netcoin.org image Before launching the White Paper on 31 October 2008, Satoshi contacted Adam Back to verify the Hashcash citation. in the email a draft of the White Paper is present. Filename: e-cash.pdf The Title is pasted in the email "Electronic Cash Without a Trusted Third Party." image Adam mention's Wei Dai's b-money. 22 August 2008 Satoshi contacts Wei Dai, same draft is shared in the same format. Link to a e-cash.pdf The Title pasted: "Electronic Cash Without a Trusted Third Party." image I was also curious if he registered http://e-cash.org around then. Looks like someone did on the 20 July 2008. Sameish period. But different IP, and different registar. Very possible these were owned by domain investors(from parking behaviour) image 5/5 And the last name come from the preBitcoin v0.1 code that Satoshi shared in private to a few testers. In one instance when testing if the mining functions work he calls it SUPERCOIN. This code was later share by one of the testers. image
