In January 2020, Auburn Craig Wright (Craig Wright) claimed that Bitcoin.org continued to host the Bitcoin white paper, infringing his copyright. Since then, many websites have added online hosting of the Bitcoin white paper. Bitcoin.org therefore temporarily removed the Bitcoin white paper.
In an act of solidarity, Bitcoiners around the world have come together to upload the Bitcoin whitepaper in as many places and as securely as possible. Here are some of the best ways to protect the Bitcoin whitepaper around the world.
1. Government hosting Bitcoin white paper
The governments of several countries have directly uploaded the Bitcoin white paper titled “Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System,” including Colombia, Estonia, and the United States.

The Estonian government website says: “We are happy to keep the original Bitcoin white paper on our website as a source of inspiration for future innovators who want to understand how blockchain technology can be used to support cross-border business and other applications. "
Jehudi Castro, an adviser to Colombian President Ivan Duque Marquez, tweeted a link to the white paper.
The Colombian government also hosts the Bitcoin white paper! Castro is an advisor to the President of Colombia, and the official government website is https://t.co/Car1PEKke8, which is their URL abbreviation.
The U.S. government also publicly hosts the Bitcoin white paper, which can be found on the website of the U.S. Sentencing Commission. Additionally, Representative Patrick mcHenrey of the House Financial Services Committee has hosted a copy of the white paper on his congressional website.
The Bitcoin white paper also appeared on the Miami city government website thanks to the efforts of Mayor Francis Suarez, who is trying to make Miami a global hub for cryptocurrency innovation.
Miami believes in Bitcoin, and I'm working day and night to make Miami a hub of crypto innovation.
Mayor Francis Suarez proudly stated on January 27, 2021 that Miami is the first city government to host the Satoshi white paper on a government website.
2. The ultimate backup of the decentralized network
The Bitcoin whitepaper is also hosted on the Interplanetary File System (IPFS) and the Ethereum Name Service (ENS).
IPFS is a peer-to-peer network for storing and sharing data in a distributed file system. Each file is uniquely identified using specific content addressing. (At the bottom of every Decrypt site article, there's an IPFS link to view the article on the web, and if you're using Brave, you don't need to run your own IPFS node to view it.)
The Ethereum Name Service also serves as an open naming system based on the Ethereum blockchain and using domain names. The platform maps human-readable names in place of traditional complex addresses that are long and hard to remember. This makes it easier to send money to other ENS users. On January 21, a Twitter user suggested that ENS host it. ENS Director of Operations Brantly Millegan set up a page hosting the Bitcoin white paper in just two hours.
3. The company hosting the Bitcoin white paper
There are many crypto companies now proudly hosting the Bitcoin white paper on their websites. These include the likes of Facebook subsidiary Novi and self-hosted app Casa.
"Nine pages, 3,641 words, 21,443 characters to reimagine finance," said Jameson Lopp, Casa's co-founder and CTO.
Another large company that has begun hosting the bitcoin white paper is Square, which bought $50 million worth of bitcoin last October.
Other companies hosting the bitcoin white paper include policy think tank Coin Center, bitcoin financial services firm NYDIG and Kraken, one of the world's largest cryptocurrency exchanges.
4. Access the Bitcoin Whitepaper on the Blockchain
Without visiting any of these sites, the Bitcoin whitepaper can also be accessed within the Bitcoin blockchain itself. It's saved as a PDF, but it has to be pieced together.
"I've tested this and it's indeed in the white paper. Good to know it's literally on the blockchain" Bitcoin article author and developer Jimmy Song.
I would like to remind everyone that the Bitcoin white paper is embedded in your archive node if needed: https://t.co/qG9ONQoP3k
— Jimmy Song (송재준), January 21, 2021
To do this, all you have to do is identify multiple pieces of Sig data and organize them into one file to extract the white paper as a pdf. simple right?
5. Bringing the Bitcoin Whitepaper to Life
If you don't want to visit the website or search the Bitcoin blockchain, you can get a copy of the Bitcoin whitepaper by printing a 3D rendering of the document. It can then be effectively kept in cold storage, protected from the internet, and accessible even without WiFi.
Twitter user Mike In Space said: "Check out the 3D rendering of the Bitcoin whitepaper and you'll notice that the wall mount is built right into the backing."
