Im sure someone else have already done this, but whatever why not check the commits n c when he was working with code. No-one works 24/7. That would tell u about his routine. Then depending on the speed of commits one could perhaps deduct how plausible it was that S. had a work or not. I would look for repeating patterns of code, complexity of code and periods of no work. S. was maybe a day or night person who knows, maybe the work habit in combo with something that he has written could provide some inside.
Actually I suspect a friend of mine being S. He never talks about Bitcoins, have shown no apparent interest in computers in general and well... Generally really suspect I think. I have also played with the idea that I might be S. myself but have rejected the idea, main reason that it would be pretty silly to forget something like that. Also my friends who I suspect are all S. dont think I an S. generally speKing i am crazy.

maybe Satoshi disappears for some reason. maybe he doesnt want the world knows his true ID.
And here you are, trying to dig him up
And here you are, trying to dig him up
If I was satoshi I wouldn't want anyone to know my real life identity either. I'm sure this would go for a large # of users of this forum. While the digging is pretty fun, I sincerely hope that nobody actually discovers who satoshi really is. Giving bitcoin a face just makes it 10X easier to shut it down and then BTC is held accountable to all actions/words of the creator if public.
That is an excellent point. If Bitcoin (or something like it) indeed does destroy our economic system, governments could come after him for Economic Terrorism. I'm glad he's anonymous.

Look at how $x you are
Satoshi is a Hungarian or Polish group/person living in the UK.
I AM SURE!
I am still doing hard research on this! I'll need another year to complete it.

Really
Exactly.
I'll look into cypherpunks if I really cannot do anything else with looking into Satoshi
Britain is in GMT/UTC time zone which is the default time zone in this forum IIRC. Maybe they just didn't change their profile
I was not aware of this. I would think it would be standard human behavior to customize voids that we would know how. I'm positive Satoshi knew SOMETHING about his timezone. I changed mine, so either he does live in Britain, or didn't change it at all.
Most of the members here never changed the default time zone. I never did and never will. Why? And a guy like Satoshi, who always connected through Tor and looked for complete anonymity using a pseudonym, would never give up personal details like his true time zone.
Seriously, did you even think before typing?

Hey! I designed a forum for you, here's your login.
Lois Lane:
How do you find someone who has spent a lifetime covering his tracks?
For some, he was a guardian angel. For others, a ghost, who never quite fit in.
What's the S stand for?

*FacePalm!*
Quite contradictory!
Just spotted that you claim to be 15, so I'll be nice.
Bah that isn't necessary at all.
What if Satoshi was not just one person, but a collection of people?
I am aware of discussion about the possibility that Satoshi was actually a group of people.
What if they shared a profile?
Definitely possible
What if the hint to who Satoshi is is not what was said, but what bits of data was shared?
That is also true.
If you really want to know who the ghost is, and personally, I think its a waste of time, the trick is looking at all the connections for the whole group.
I've actually decided to change my mind and not go after him. I've found some threads of GROUPS of people attempting to and they haven't come to a solution. I simply couldn't do it alone.
Have fun

Wow. So that was the original announcement of Bitcoin? It's like I'm taking a history tour on this thing.

Good read for the future. I'll export it into Reader on my iPod (Android when I have access to one) for reading on the road and such.

I agree now actually. I'll adjust my time to studying C++ and cryptography.
I hope you do. We'll need ethical coders in the future.
That is so true. Thank you for sharing your sources. They really do help.

and this is how conspiracies start - half truths being converted to full lies describes as truth!
If you are interested in chasing ghosts, you should spend your time on the cypherpunks newsgroups around 2007
Its likely that you'll find far more hints to ID there than you'll ever do here.

Please, explain how anything above is a half truth or a full lie. I'd like to know. I also happen to be very interested in the identity of Satoshi, as it's remarkable how he posted the worlds best model for a financial system back in 2008, and hasn't been found since.

Do you know what mailing list he was talking about? Was it the cypherpunks mailing list? If it was, in that listserv archive you shared, the archive for 2007 and 2008 aren't there.

Wow. So that was the original announcement of Bitcoin? It's like I'm taking a history tour on this thing. I followed that email down to the registration for the cryptography mailing list. I registered to it. I think cryptography will be something very interesting. Hopefully this list is still active. Now to register for the cypherpunks mailing list.
I actually hope he stays a secret ... because this endless discussion of who is Satoshi is one of the best parts of Bitcoin.

EDIT: Unfortunately the last node to the cypherpunks mailing list is down. So is the LNE node. Oh well.

I heard Satoshi was actually a pen name for Theodor Seuss Geisel. Apparently, he really lives is Whoville under the names of Cares.
