Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System

Public-record atlas · Edition 1.0.0
Satoshi, in the record.
A searchable catalogue of the messages, quotation records and recipient-published correspondence attached to the Satoshi Nakamoto identity. Every entry keeps its date, channel, provenance and route back to context.
“All known” requires a boundary.
This edition indexes every Satoshi-authored public message enumerable in the pinned Complete Satoshi source snapshot: 39 mailing-list messages and 542 active-era forum posts. It also maps all 162 entries in that archive’s curated quotation index and registers major private collections later published by recipients or introduced in court.
It cannot contain every communication Satoshi ever wrote. Deleted posts, private-board material, lost mailboxes and undisclosed correspondence are unknowable. BitcoinTalk’s public profile counter reports 575 posts, while 539 are currently enumerable; the archive preserves that discrepancy instead of manufacturing missing records.

A versioned index, not an identity claim.
Public records are filtered to Satoshi-authored entries, normalized to ISO timestamps while preserving raw timestamps, linked to a pinned upstream commit, and hashed after quoted reply blocks and contact details are removed. The 2014 P2P Foundation message is excluded from the documented-era total. No message here establishes a civil identity.

Direct answers
Archive questions
Does this contain everything Satoshi ever wrote?
No. It indexes every Satoshi-authored public message enumerable in a named archival snapshot and separately registers published private collections. Lost, deleted, private and undisclosed communications cannot be known.
Why do BitcoinTalk totals differ?
The public profile counter reports 575 posts, while 539 posts are currently enumerable in the archival dataset. Deleted or inaccessible material prevents a perfect reconstruction.
Is the 2014 P2P Foundation message treated as authentic?
No. It is indexed as disputed post-dormancy account activity and excluded from the 581-message documented project-era total.
Why are some quotation entries not reproduced in full?
The archive prioritizes context, provenance and source links. It republishes only short excerpts while indexing every quotation record in the pinned source collection.
