The bitcoin white paper was published 15 years ago by Satoshi Nakamoto. The paper outlined the blockchain technology that would underpin a decentralized payment system. The paper has made its mark, but intriguingly, nobody today has figured out who Satoshi Nakamoto is. What's in the white paperWhile bitcoin was officially launched in January 2009, in the 2008 paper Satoshi Nakamoto laid out the fundamental framework of the blockchain-based payment system. It wasn't written in the white paper, but the system is designed so that there are only 21 million bitcoins that will ever exist.

Satoshi Nakamoto is said to be the inventor of bitcoin and wrote the token's original white paper in 2008. Nakamoto's paper, "Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System," was published in October 2008. In his white paper, Nakamoto cited the work of Stuart Haber, a computer scientist credited with helping invent blockchain technology. A Newsweek article in 2014 said that Dorian Prentice Satoshi Nakamoto, a Japanese American man living in California, was the elusive inventor of bitcoin. After the article published, Nakamoto's online account revived itself after a five-year hiatus, stating: "I am not Dorian Nakamoto."
