June 2024 | I had a mind-blowing experience at BTC Prague. I ran into THE Adam freaking Back!
Dr. Adam Back is the genius behind Hashcash - that proof-of-work that became the foundation for Bitcoin's mining algorithm. This dude has been in the game since the cypherpunk days of the 90s! He's like the OG of OGs in this space. Not only did Adam's Hashcash lay the groundwork for Bitcoin mining, but the big man Satoshi himself cited it as an influence in the legendary Bitcoin whitepaper.
