Satoshi was deffo British

'Sorry to be a wet blanket. Writing a description for this thing for general audiences is bloody hard. There's nothing to relate it to.'

You can not change my mind 'bloody hell' 'this bloody thing' and using the word bloody is the most British word ever 😂😂

I don't make the rules 🙄

I've often thought that too. He also wrote in British English - using 'ise' instead of size. E.g. Recognise instead of recognize.

*ize not size lol

That was also my next comment. English language automatically is 's' and not 'z'

I find it difficult when working sometimes because I always get corrected from our USA audience which is our bigger one too. my spell check and phone automatically puts the 's'

Plus he also used a UK Times newspaper headline in the first block.

‘Chancellor on the Brink of Second Bailout for Banks’

Deffo a Brit

💯

or australian 😏

Look up the case for satoshi being Len Sassaman. It’s a very convincing argument.

“Strangely enough, Len used the very same British English as Satoshi even though he was American,” Leung detailed. “Since COSIC was based in Leuven, Len was living in Belgium during Bitcoin’s development. This is salient given that a number of facts suggest that Satoshi was based in Europe,” the study explained.

Lol So we back to it being Adam Back? South Africans also use those phrases quite a bit, but I still refuse to believe it could be Paul Le Roux

Nah I don't think it's Adam black What so ever. Or Paul. Just been reading the bitcoin org for the millionth time. He just comes across as very British how he talks and writes.

Len Sassaman RIP 2011.

I think he passed control of forum account to Hal, who then made one last compassionate post in 2014 shortly before he also died.

I was stationed at RAF Bentwaters for a year back in '79. When I got back to the States, I couldn't stop speaking like that.

Also, sometimes people will misdirect intentionally. Satoshi was sensitive to privacy, so it might have been intentional "mis-attribution".

OTOH, you might be right..
