On 31 Oct 2008 a nine page paper was posted to a mailing list. Here the holders retype it, word by word. Every buy types the next words, $1 = 1 word. Every sell is backspace. The last word publishes it, signed by the 21 top writers.
0 words retyped.3,374 to go. hover any word to see who typed it.
TYPENo prizes, no payouts, no rewards. Your name on the paper is the whole thing. Every trade is read from the chain, priced in dollars and typed onto the same sheet for every visitor.
Every buy of $WHITEPAPER from $1 types the next words of the real 2008 paper, $1 = 1 word, up to 300 words per buy. The words land in orange ink, then dry to black. Your wallet goes in the margin with what you wrote.
A $50 buy is a PARAGRAPH: the page marks it. A $250 buy is a SECTION: the heading of the part you are typing slams across the sheet, 1. Introduction to 12. Conclusion.
A sell deletes words from the end of the text, $1 = 1 word. The last words get a red strike, then they are gone, whoever typed them. Somebody has to type them again.
When word 3,374 lands, the edition is published. Page one comes back, the signature line becomes the 21 top writers of that edition, the wax seal comes down. Then edition #2 starts on a blank sheet.
Abstract, twelve sections and the references, nine pages, word for word as posted on 31 Oct 2008. The figures are drawn as boxes, the maths is typed as text. Every bar fills as the holders type.
The paper was posted on 31 October 2008. It turns 18 this week. The deadline is a date, not a promise: nothing happens on the 31st except the anniversary.
The pace is the last hour of net words (typed minus deleted). Display only.
The market cap sets the era on a log scale, from a draft passed around a mailing list to SATOSHI MODE at $1M. The desk, the light and the little screen next to the sheet change with every era.
Every word keeps the wallet that typed it. The top 21 by net words (written minus deleted) sign the next edition. Ties go to whoever started writing first.
Every finished retype is kept: the edition number, when the last word landed, who typed it and the 21 names on the signature line.
$WHITEPAPER trades against WBTC, Wrapped BTC (Portal) on Solana. The paper next to the thing it described. Whatever the buyer pays with, the page reads the pool and prices every trade in US dollars, so one dollar is one word in SOL or in bitcoin.
A collective retype of the Bitcoin whitepaper with no prize. Every buy of $WHITEPAPER from $1 types the next words of the real text, $1 = 1 word. Every sell deletes words from the end. When the last word lands, the edition is published and signed by the 21 wallets that wrote the most of it. Glory only.
Yes. "Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System", 31 October 2008, word for word: the abstract, the twelve sections, the C code, the result tables and the references. 3,374 words. The figures are drawn as simple boxes and the equations are typed as plain text.
The next ones. Nobody picks. If the sheet ends at "proof-of-work" and you buy $12, you type the next 12 words of the paper. Hover any word on the sheet to see which wallet typed it.
Backspace. It deletes words from the end of the text, $1 = 1 word, up to 300, no matter who typed them. Your own net words go down by what you delete. Deleted words have to be typed again.
The 21 wallets with the most net words in that edition: words written minus words deleted. Ties go to whoever started first. The names replace the author line on page one, next to an orange wax seal.
No. There is no prize, no pot, no airdrop and no holder reward. PUBLISHED is a stamp, a seal and your wallet on page one. Nobody receives anything. Due 31.10 is the anniversary of the paper, not a promise.
Not yet. Until launch it runs a simulated tape with made-up wallets, the same for every visitor, labelled preview. The text is the real paper. No wallet in the preview is real. The BTC price is real.
