Short YouTube commentary by Dan Novaes arguing that Adam Back (co‑founder of Hashcash) is central to Bitcoin’s resilience. The video traces Hashcash’s influence on Bitcoin (Hashcash is cited in the Bitcoin whitepaper), situates Back within the 1990s Cypherpunks movement advocating encryption and open-source money, and notes his current project using satellites to provide Bitcoin access to remote regions. The presenter asserts Back would buy bitcoin at $0.01 because he believes its fundamental value endures.
