More than 12 years later, I’ve just posted again in the same Bitcointalk thread where I was writing about Buddy back in 2014.

For anyone who doesn’t know the history, I originally posted on Bitcointalk as icicle, and later as Icicle2.
I lost access to my original icicle account during everything that happened back then, but recently, after a lot of technical issues, I finally managed to regain access to my old Icicle2 account from 2014.
So going back there and writing about Buddy again after all these years honestly felt quite surreal. Back then I wasn’t thinking about “crypto history”. I was just trying to save my dog.
Now, more than a decade later, people have gone back through those old posts, followed the Bitcoin trail, found the 2014 message written into Bitcoin saying:
“Buddy is the best dog in the world”
…and somehow found me too.
I’ve now added a new update to Buddy’s old thread from the same Icicle2 account I was using in 2014.
I’m also still working on recovering my original icicle account, and if I get access back, I’ll post from there too. It feels like Buddy’s story is being picked up again exactly where it was left.
And this time there’s a whole community behind it, building something more sustainable around his history, supporting the cause and helping carry Buddy’s legacy forward.
From those old Bitcointalk posts in 2013/2014 to where Buddy is today… It really does feel like the story has come full circle.
And I genuinely think this next chapter could be the biggest one yet.
