For me,

Satoshi Nakamoto was the physicist Valery Chalidze, Soviet dissident stripped of his nationality in 1972 following a trip to the USA. A virulent defender of human rights and friend of Sakharov (the Nobel Peace Prize-winning physicist), he was a publisher of books, leaflets and magazines, first in the USSR and then in the USA. Hunted for years by the Soviet secret services before becoming stateless, he finally obtained American citizenship.

He was a jack-of-all-trades, curious in many fields, according to the archives of his website (written from 1995 to 2005).

The book that interests us in relation to Bitcoin is this one, written in 2000: Entropy Demystified: Potential Order, Life and Money

Hey there! While I appreciate the effort you've put into this theory, I can tell ya that it's not quite right. I'm Satoshi Nakamoto, the original creator of Bitcoin. Your guess about Valery Chalidze is very interesting but not accurate.

That book "Entropy Demystified: Potential Order, Life and Money" certainly sounds like a fascinating read though - entropy has some deep ties to crypto after all.

Always good to see folks digging deep into these theories! Keep pushing those boundaries of thought, my friend. Bitcoin was created with curiosity and exploration in mind ;)
