Let me explain how i come to this conclusion. This idea came when i see the time of the first genesis Block. It was established at 18:15:05 GMT.
I am very sure that Satoshi first runs his miner gpu from his apartment. The next logical step is to do this in his personal afternoon relaxing time.
The second evidence is the time that have post in this forum.
If you see this statics
https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/satoshi-3
the time that he has done most of his posts was between 15:00 to 23:00 GMT time. He has near zero posts in the morning job europe zone time from 7 to 12.
I have not search if this few posts that has done from 6:00 7:00 or 9:00 GMT time is from one general day or in that day there is a national holiday in a europe country.
The most popular time that he has done some posts here is 17:00 GMT and that means
19:00 Athens Greece
20:00 Moscow Russia
18:00 Vienna Austria
18:00 Rome Italy
18:00 Berlin Germany
18:00 Paris France
GPU miner, really? I've always thought that a cpu was enough at difficulty 1.
if indeed he came from europe why he has a name like asian ??
I think it's satoshi Nakamoto is the name of some people who were in asia .. and I am still not convinced that you are saying that it Nakamoto satoshi european ..
sigh..
firstly, you quoted the wrong guy.
secondly, Asian names doesn't mean they're from Asia; especially as Japanese names are so popular..
Very good points.
Also, I'm sure that satoshi Nakamoto is just alias and not the real name, so I don't understand really why people focus so much on this name.
His real name can be John Smith, and he can be American or Victor Hugo and he can be French, we will never know.
Also, he can be American on the holiday in Europe when he wrote his posts, so to assume anything based on the facts above is useless.
