Satoshi Nakamoto cites eight references in the Bitcoin white paper that influenced the Bitcoin protocol's design.

This thread explores each one and its significance. Image
For context, the Bitcoin protocol combines several existing tools, technologies, and procedures in a novel way. Image
1/ ‘b-money’ by Wei Dai is the very first reference listed:

“efficient cooperation requires a medium of exchange (money) and a way to enforce contracts. I describe a protocol by which these services can be provided.”

Dai would also be one of the first people Nakamoto contacted regarding the proposal of Bitcoin.Image

—Andreas M. AntonopoulosImage
There appears to be an endless list of critiques and criticisms levied against bitcoin. But they generally fall into three distinct buckets. Image
