Accidentally discovered a mind-blowing artefact of Bitcoin history. I had heard rumors of its existence.
I give you: the pre-release source code of Bitcoin! https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=382374.0 …
Confirmation by Satoshi many had access to code when he mined Genesis:

TL;DR Satoshi got many people to review the Bitcoin source code, so this means he wants the only miner when bitcoin launched
Mindblown: earliest reference to the term BitcoinMiner is in the source code. Satoshi himself invented the term “miner” !!
Holy shit!! 🤯
COIN and CENT the original units.
CENT is Satoshi’s original vision for SATS.
BitcoiN historians, STOP WHAT YOU ARE DOING AND GET ON THIS
