So as far as markets are concerned I'm a libertarian, but I have enough expertise in politics and history to understand that a free market ends up as monopoly unless you force them to be free.

Would the creator of Bitcoin say something like that?

Good, God.  I would hope not.  Talk about 'newspeak'; free market = monopoly and force = freedom.  If I were king of Wikileaks, I'd still choose him to be the frontman, for no other reason than to stir controversy to keep the ire of governments turned in his direction and away from what my left hand is doing next.  Much like the president of the universe in 'The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy'.

Satoshi is very low-keyed while Julian Assange looks for attention.

In another thread someone mentioned Satoshi was last seen on the forum a few days after Julian went to jail December last year; the person said that proved they weren't the same person, but IMO the two dates being so close actually works towards suggesting they might be the same person.


What do you think and what makes you think that way?
