Venture capitalist Tim Draper called Bitcoin (BTC) creator Satoshi Nakamoto an optimist in an Oct. 26 post, tying the praise to Draper’s No. 76 position among 250 living American optimists. Draper wrote that “optimists do everything that drives progress.” He described Nakamoto as “an optimist, willing to transform the entire global economy with a trusted 3rd party in software around Bitcoin.” He pointed to Hotmail, Skype, Tesla and SpaceX as businesses he said had drawn skepticism. Bitcoin’s 2008 white paper proposed online payments directly between people without a financial institution.
