The term "blockchain" doesn't appear in the original Bitcoin paper. Who used the term for the first time, anyone knows?

I don't know exactly who, but i believe that the first one who used it should be Satoshi Nakamoto, about the definition i found this https://www.techopedia.com/definition/30246/blockchain
