I imagine it must be fairly surreal to be Satoshi, period.

#4I actually recommend taking this course on coursera. The videos are nice but very basic - what really is intresting are the coding assinments.

What if Satoshi isn't a single person but an entire organization?
Specifically what if Satoshi is a decentralized autonomous organization and the original bitcoin paper was an output generated by the Satoshi DAO?
Why would Satoshi do that you may ask. Well they need to make sure the whole blockchain concept was created in the first place or otherwise Satoshi DAO would not have come into existence...

#6I've been recently starting work on an Ethereum client in Elixir. One of the goals of the project is to make the code clean and understandable. Looking through the repo could be good supplemental reading (for a different but similar blockchain). Also, we're always looking for new contributors.

There are three tasks throught the course:
implementation of scroodge coin,
consensus from trust and simple blockchain node implementation
I actually found myself learning a bit more about the blockchain after doing these, especially the first one.

What did you expect? This course are theoretical course. You are looking for wrong thing in wrong place!
