Satoshi Nakamoto was clearly a pirate. Ninja's work for the government while Satoshi clearly wanted to take down the government

"    Yes, [we will not find a solution to political problems in cryptography,] but we can win a major battle in the arms race and gain a new territory of freedom for several years.

    Governments are good at cutting off the heads of a centrally controlled networks like Napster, but pure P2P networks like Gnutella and Tor seem to be holding their own.[4]

    It's very attractive to the libertarian viewpoint if we can explain it properly. I'm better with code than with words though."

Bitcoins, the new Pirate Booty

Well, they're a lot easier to move around than metal coinage! Probably easier to bury, too.

Someone knows nothing about the ninja. They were self-trained peasants who tried to overthrow the government because the samurai were corrupt.

hmm, well you made me take a second look. History of the Ninja – Sun Tzu

"The ninja were fundamentally intelligence spies, not warriors, and carried out most of their activities during peacetime. Even if there were no major wars going on, the rulers always needed to have reliable intelligence because there were always conflicts in the court and among local monarchs. In approximately the 6th century A.D."

James Bond was bad ass, but still worked for the government.

pirates using a currency a ninja created just proves ninja > pirate
Batman went back in time and became a caveman and then a pirate. Pirate > Ninja
