    Everyone has heard of Satoshi, most have heard of Gavin Andresen. Jeff Garzik, Pieter Wuille and other early contributors are well known to the core community, but we're looking for other early contributors that have almost been forgotten about. From bug reports, to critical updates to community rallying that got Bitcoin in-front of the right eyes.

    We are trying to compile a list of developers and community members that have contributed a lot to Bitcoin so we can integrate them into an upcoming project. In order to help with this we are making this thread to try and uncover some of the more hidden stories in the Bitcoin community, to help give the people behind them their place in history and the recognition they deserve.

    No matter how small an action, it may have still had an impact equally as great.  


    The rules are simple:

    • Select someone who you feel needs acknowledgement for their early contributions
    • State why they stand out for you
    • The contributions should be dated before 2012

    We especially want to know about them if they are developers that are not on our current list, compiled based on github contributions and early bug reports. However this list just goes of commit history, and fails to give credit to those behind the ideas, reports and smaller code contributions.
