I thought he had ALS since his childhood and not in the last years of his life, and I also didn't think he was a developer but a technology explorer.
Not sure when he got this disease but it becomes worse and worse when he gets older.
In general, his achievement, optimism, and words are very motivating and encouraging, and I hope that the entire Bitcoin community will be as well.
Hal Finney and Stephen Hawkins live are very motivational stories for the young. "If there is a will, there is a way" as Albert Einstein wrote, they found own ways to live and contribute with their passions.
Furthermore, when we are talking about Hal Finney, don't forget about Satoshi Nakamoto and
his lesson. They are all models we can learn from their contributions.
