'Satoshi' could be a highly educated American woman, a tripped-out Oriental female (pictured below), or perhaps a sexless alien from a distant planet.
Did the subject ever come up in his early posts?
Edit: "Satoshi" is usually a male name, but that could just be part of the cover.
Do you assume Satoshi was a Male?

No, there are some ridiculous conspiracy theorists that think Satoshi is a front for a secret NSA project, but everyone knows Satoshi is really a front for a secret CIA project.

My guess is that it was perhaps a group with one person in charge of interacting with the outside world to keep up the consistency of grammar, time zones etc. That person might also have been directing it and farming out the odd task.

I've no idea about gender. Boys rather than girls are more into computing and cryptography - ergo it was a group of bouncing baby boys, with maybe the odd feminoid chucked in too.

My guess is it's a male because the demographics for electronic-software stuff is male, simply based on raw statistics.

Shouldn't we be hoping for a hermaphrodite? That would be the wisest of them all, or the most pissed off and clueless about either gender. I'm not sure.

Seriously, seriouscoin?
Well-placed observers have noticed "Satoshi" is quietly making large donations to bisexual marriage lobby groups in at least 25 American states. Keeping substantial donations quiet is pretty hard these days.  



Just a code name for the project? It is pretty complete, almost error-free code for a single person to have done.*
*Part of Bitcoin is based on older projects.

I know a couple of bisexuals. They seemed just as gendery as anyone else to me. I would be more impressed and maybe less surprised if Satoshi turned out to be an ant colony.

Truly, there is no such thing as a 100% straight person as there is no 100% ever in life(Everything is subjective, nothing can ever be completely certain), everyone is bisexual to some degree, no matter how small or insignificant.

Also, there's definitive proof that there is no god.

And finally, Satoshi Nakamoto is a common male Japanese name. Therefore, the person/s behind nakamoto are much more likely to be male.

No no no, the NSA is a front for a secret CIA project which is a front for a secrete Satoshi project which is a front for an alien invasion.

The best theory I think is him being an alien, but honestly, with this kind of technology you keep your identity secret for sure.

he wont keep his identity a secret  for ever

You can't assume satoshi was a male. He is a male. I've check out some of his various social profiles, including the first decentralised Bitcoin post, explaining the break-through

Satoshi sounds like a guy's name to me.

Edison, Einstein, Tesla and many more... Yes he is male  ;)

ofcourse yes.....how can u even think like that lol

He was a guy, 28 yo, the public face of the organization.  8)

Of course he was a male. We all know there are no females on this message board, or even the internet for that matter  ;D. Seriously though, I think it's safe to say satoshi was a male or at least a group of males, though I suppose a woman could have been among them. I guess we'll never know.

I have always assumed Satoshi was a male because of all the news and stories I've read, and most of them depict him as a male. Also, it's a male name. But now, I think of 'Satoshi Nakamoto' is a group of people, mostly built up of males. That is what I now assume.

Yes, I suppose Satoshi was a male.

this could come only to the male, definitely - he's a male !

lol


I never thought of Satoshi's gender, now I've gotta think for a moment :)

Why does it matter, all that does is we got bitcoin , all hail Satoshi ;D

Considering the fact that most bitcoin users are male, I would say it is likely.

The majority of computer programmers are male, so odds are if Satoshi is/was one singular person that they would be male.

That's an interesting idea to say, because I always considered satoshi a masculine name which led me to believe Satoshi was male. But who knows, he could quite possibly be a female. But there has been some evidence of possibilities exactly on who Satoshi is. They've led to a male "suspect".

most definitely satoshi is a male. as all. other devs

He is Illuminati

He... you think male!

Δ

I think satoshi could be a group rather than an individual just because how good this system was when released there were only a few major bugs.

I have always thought of him as a male and have refereed to him as a male just like in this reply  :D I cant help it I just feel this is a mans project hence the amount of males to females ratio

I assume everything.
So, either Satoshi is male, or female, or maybe this is the name for whole organization.
Probably we will never know.

Satoshi is a male name, isn't?

I think people that pick male names usually are males

of course he is male ..or group of people..there is no chance he was a woman..anf if so..than Im sure it was transgender person or lesbien. No prejudices only experience and realistic estimates :D

he's definitely the male, there can be no doubt

Ok ok, guys. This is it.
I admit I am male.  ;D

Hope now everything is settled. OP may lock this thread. I just used Satoshe name as a cover.


Edit: And I ain't no Illuminati.

actually, it's neither. He was illuminati.

lies.

I believe that either Satoshi is a man or he is in reality a group of people. I don't think that there are many women capable of creating such amazing creation like bitcoin is.

I've been reading "Book of Satoshi", a collection of almost all of Satoshi's online writings.  I've come to the conclusion and am 100% convinced that Satoshi is not/was not a singular person.  When you start seeing all of the potential issues that people brought up and how Satoshi thought of everything (not literally, but come on, basically everything) then you have to wonder how one person could have done it.  You need a team of people to sit around and bounce things off each other. It doesn't need to be a big team, 3 or 5 people would probably do it, but the initial project has all the signs of a collaborative effort.

I agree I don't think Satoshi was 1 person either.

I assume Satoshi was a male because Satoshi has never once asked me to cuddle.

There are no girls on the Internet.

Lock this thread.

You are wrong.  ;D
