James A. Donald
James A. Donald is a Cypherpunk notable.
Timestamped a day later, he was the first to respond to Satoshi Nakamoto's first communication.
"In fact, the first answer Satoshi got for it, the first idea, that was expressed about Bitcoin, the first spark, his paper ignited, was literally “it does not seem to scale.” James A. Donald, a Canadian libertarian and cypherpunk, was the first person to answer Satoshi. He said: ... " https://btcmanager.com/the-long-history-of-the-fight-over-scaling-bitcoin/
Is James A. Donald, who appears to run jim.com -- registered Feb. 1995-- and echeque.com (which now redirects to jim.com and has since early Jan. 2009, according to the Internet Archive) ...is 'James A. Donald' an early nom de plume for a highly-skilled C++ programmer who wanted at least a patina of anonymity while leaving glaring historical clues as to his real identity?
Here, under subheading '3', Dan Kaminsky talks of trying to early-on hack Satoshi's code: https://www.gwern.net/docs/bitcoin/2011-davis
The cypherpunks-- some of them-- might have clues. Could James A. Donald and Satoshi Nakamoto have been one man having a back and forth shibai technical conversation with himself for the immediacy of profound teaching edification to a highly-skilled reader base?
https://satoshi.nakamotoinstitute.org/code/
It is not chronicled if Ray Ozzie has read Satoshi's code or can identify the coder according to the precise style as being personally known to him for many years.
James A. Donald's historical first commentaries with Satoshi Nakamoto seem to argumentatively presage and posit the BTC lightning network, as well as suggest data compression.
James A. Donald also wrote the code for 'Kong', which can still be found online. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.207.128.124 (talk) 17:39, 24 November 2018 (UTC)
