Hal Finney was a genius programmer in the fields of open source software and cryptography.
He joined the Cypherpunks movement in the early 1990s, a group that believed that encryption could protect privacy and prevent government surveillance.
He worked on the PGP development team with Phil Zimmerman, one of the world's most powerful email encryption programs.
He published small projects related to "cryptocurrency" before the emergence of Bitcoin, such as "RPOW - Reusable Proof of Work" in 2004, an idea that paved the way for a decentralized financial system.
