I'm BartMan.
As to the never-ending fun of "who is Satoshi". I imagine almost anyone interested in that question comes to the idea that it might be Adam, but I think anybody who hangs around long enough reads what Adam says, thinks about it a little further, realizes that it's almost certainly not Adam.
I favor Szabo if we're going to go with old school cypherpunk types.
But I don't think he is either, honestly.
My favorite in the category of people who could or could have been Satoshi is John Nash.
At first, it seems impossible. He was a fairly old man in the early 20-teens.
But so many things line up about Nash. It begins to get a little bit spooky after a while. And of course, if you have ever read his paper on Asymptotic Ideal Money, then you are stricken with the similarity of his concept to what was actually implemented in Bitcoin.
But I don't have any idea who it was. And I think it's better for all of us if we leave it there.
