Today, Bitcoin development is a highly collaborative process between hundreds of developers around the globe. When Satoshi ran the project, it was him and a few others doing most (if not all) of the work.
 
Again, not that this is exactly surprising. Early on, there weren’t really many coders of Satoshi’s caliber. They would come later, and largely be encouraged by Gavin Andresen to join what became a more open, collaborative project under his leadership.
 
It’s interesting that Satoshi ran Bitcoin as a benevolent dictator in that he mainly often wrote β€œofficial” code that was tested by others. This is well in-line with established practices in open-source, and it’s believable Satoshi wouldn’t have realized he needed to invent a new model for Bitcoin’s management in order for it to be β€œdecentralized.”
 
These attitudes largely progressed through three phases. There was a honeymoon period in early 2010 when most users were discovering the software, and an awakening when he began to more actively assert his authority over the code.
 
Finally, the last period of late 2010 saw users disassociating from Satoshi entirely. Some made jokes about his gender and sexuality, sometimes graphically, and they talked quite freely and openly about the frustrations he caused due to a general lack of availability and inability to meet their many demands.
