It doesn't matter who Satoshi is. What matters is that he brings the world block chain technology and bitcoin, which is a huge asset to the whole market, and it will drive the development of technology.

he hides himself for years already. he could have deleted all his posts and tracks but leave. i think its better for us to respect what he wants
he made all these things possible right now i think all these are something to be grateful to him but leave him as private as he wants. besides you won't be earning anything if you learn who he is.

Yes, there have been several Linguistic and Stylometric analysis made to determine who Satoshi Nakamoto is based on his/her/their style of writing. The Bitcoin Whitepaper, Satoshi's posts on the Bitcointalk forum and some of his replies / responses on Ning.com were used to analyze how his writing style would match with those who published related papers - Mainly few written by Nick Sazbo where he wrote about BitGold and B-Money by Wei Dai.

Few references of linguistic analysis for your reading:

Also, do remember that take most of these research and analysis with a pinch of salt. Although they're a very interesting read, there's no certain way to prove it just by linguistics as it may be strikingly possible to find writings of few people to be similar.
Thanks for the links. It was an interesting read. If you read the readers' comments, you will find that people even analysed the times that the Satoshi's posts have been submitted and came to interesting conclusions. Still, there is nothing that undoubtly prooves Satoshi's identity, those are clues only.

Interesting attempt to track and maybe identify who the real Satoshi is. But it seems futile because Satoshi wanted to be remain faceless when he created Bitcoin and when he eventually handed over the development to the right hands. What's important is what Bitcoin has done and where it's going.

Any info here would be greatly appreciated- i find the question of his identity fascinating

Me too... I wonder if is there any info that can guarantee that he's a native English speaker or if is there any spelling mistake that can lead to believing that he can be Japanese.

Another thing that I noticed is that he was (or is) humble in his words. That's why I'm pretty sure Craig Wright isn't the real SM. An arrogant and anti-social person like him could never be the same person who was willing to help/create the (inexistent) crypto community at the time.

This Craig scammer is being sued for stealing BTC from one of the BTC creators.`

A question that I'm thinking is, wouldn't be Kleiman the real SM? Well, he's dead atm but who knows?

Been reading some of satoshis posts from 2010. Does anyone know of any attempts to perform linguistic analysis of his many posts? It seems to be quite particular in style and vernacular but i'm no expert.
