Founded by Satoshi Nakamoto, making it the earliest and one of the most important Bitcoin communities. TODO official in any way? Who founded it?
Some notable appearances:
- in 2010, it is where Laszlo's pizzas offer was announced
- it was used e.g. on the Mt. Gox investigation: youtu.be/tJ-TsrK6SuY?t=2018
- Jimmy Zhong's investigation: youtu.be/pxvd1YOMGxU?t=1004

Eligius pool Updated 2025-07-16
Created by Luke Dashjr.
The pool is named after Saint Eligius, patron of miners[ref]
Eligius also means to "choose" or "chosen" in Latin: en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Eligius, same root as "to elect" in modern English presumably.

YouTube channels that just go over Stack Exchange questions Updated 2025-07-16
Some people have been creating YouTube channels that just post and go over a large number of Stack Exchange questions, some of them with a quick random intro video. Perfectly legal due to CC BY-SA but really weird stuff!
- Roel Van de Paar www.youtube.com/@RoelVandePaar. This one seems to be the OG. As of June 2024 it had 2M videos (!), 161K subscribers and only 47M views. youtube.fandom.com/wiki/Roel_Van_de_Paar mentions "he has the highest number of uploads of any YouTube channel". Interestingly at www.linkedin.com/in/roelvandepaar/?originalSubdomain=au he says he is a test engineer at MariaDB.
- Peter Schneider www.youtube.com/@peterschneiderQandA e.g. www.youtube.com/watch?v=GBQhrKRpUdI "How to put a newline special character into a file using the echo command and redirection operator?" from unix.stackexchange.com/questions/191694/how-to-put-a-newline-special-character-into-a-file-using-the-echo-command-and-re)Stackexchange
- Sophia Wagner www.youtube.com/@SophiaWagnerQandA. As of June 2024 it had 14k videos and only 88k views, so she made 88 bucks on it.
- E.g. www.youtube.com/watch?v=elIlkJneVBI "Vertically stack multiple images using ImageMagick" goes over superuser.com/questions/290656/vertically-stack-multiple-images-using-imagemagick
- www.youtube.com/@LukeChaffeyTechInfo Luke Chaffey, an Indian-American dude, e.g. www.youtube.com/watch?v=wmx6mN_G83s "Do Boost Geometry nearest queries always sort results ordered by smallest distance first?"
- www.youtube.com/@pythonoracle The Python Oracle. Speech synthesis, with different accents. Cute!

Ciro Santilli's hardware WD Elements 20TB Updated 2025-07-16
Bought December 2023 for 300 pounds, so 15 pounds / TB. Needs power supply unfrotunately besides USB, the largest one without needing power supply was only 5 TB at the time so not worth it, given that my P14s alreay carriers 2 TB. 10x is a must for the external crap.

Noise: it has a constant pleasant hum, with a not so nice click every 5 seconds or so. Reasonable, but not amazingly incredible.
The size is reasonable, not megaportable, but definitely reasonable.

Alex Elbanna Updated 2025-07-16
Shady shady owner of "vistomail.com" sine November 2023. He sends emails as satoshi@vistomail.com without any disclaimers, Godlike.
He or someone with the same name is having some fun with the SEC: dockets.justia.com/docket/florida/flmdce/8:2023cv01638/416506 for "Securities Fraud".
The complaint: www.sec.gov/files/litigation/complaints/2023/comp25785.pdf (archive). Some pearls:
41. Elbanna told investors several other lies to gain investors’ trust. These included his claim that he had served in the U.S. Marines, when in reality he was discharged after just fifteen days of their thirteen-week recruit training. Elbanna claimed that he had worked at the U.S. National Security Agency (“NSA”). He further claimed that the NSA was aware of and participating in the Digital World Exchange enterprise. All of these claims were false.42. Perhaps most incredibly, after claiming that he had “been in blockchain technology since the beginning” and “in the cryptocurrency space almost since its inception” in the May 2018 and March 2019 Whitepapers, respectively, Elbanna told investors in a chat program in April 2019 that he “was one of the first 4 creators of BTC.” He went so far as to tell another investor that he was the pseudonymous inventor of bitcoin, Satoshi Nakamoto himself. These statements were also false. Elbanna later admitted that he was not involved in blockchain technology from its beginning, and that he “didn’t even really know much about crypto” in 2018, the year he launched the Digital World Exchange enterprise.
www.law360.com/articles/1803299/bogus-nsa-worker-to-pay-sec-2-2m-in-crypto-scam-case says he had to pay $2.2M to the SEC.
The documentary Bitconned from Netflix comes strongly to mind, www.imdb.com/title/tt30317302/. It is unbelieveable people would fall for that kind of thing, the founders are not even sophisticated. And on top of that he agrees to appear on a documentary!!! OMG.
