so we all know these weird moments after too much time in a rabbit hole, right? well, a couple of weeks ago out of an odd and indistinctive feeling i (again …) checked the name Satoshi Nakamoto for secret hints, a hidden message maybe. from a different angle this time. the lore on who or what he may have been goes deep, i know. from Finney & friends to an NSA op, there’s theories on everything. what they all have in common is that the name Satoshi Nakamoto was meant to hide a truth beneath, about identity and true intent. so if the name kept hidden a message for all these years, decoding this message might change the angle on how we look at BTC origins. of course i also researched what other curious minds might have found out in the past 16 years. out of all possibilities, Satoshi Nakamoto being an anagram for something hooked me most. long before the web anagrams were the encryption of heretics, mystics, and spies. a name could be rearranged to carry a secret. the message couldn’t be spoken, but it could be spelled. sounded promising, so i tried a number (a very large number) of variations and letter/word combinations and eventually stumbled upon a rather odd one. 15 letters rearranged into something too strange to ignore: Satoshi Nakamoto is a perfect anagram for “A mask, a hot sin too.” the anagram doesn’t just work, it feels poetic. it doesn’t rearrange to nonsense. it forms a statement. that’s rare, very rare. try it. most names don’t produce meaning. so what are the odds this is coincidence? the mask, sure, that we all get. but the sin - what could have been the sin? did i decrypt a hidden message from Satoshi Nakamoto, overlooked for 16 years? or is this just a carrot on a stick i needed to finally pull myself out of the rabbit hole, feeling like i achieved something?
People like to look for meaning where there is no meaning.

What if Satoshi is really a real name? The real owner of this name laughs on the sidelines when we all here are trying to find a hidden meaning or message in this name. Although, to be honest, I don’t believe it myself, and the above was just an assumption (not excluding plausibility). It is unlikely that the
BTC-founder would want to publish his real name and Satoshi looks like some kind of creative pseudonym. Perhaps with a hidden meaning, or perhaps just a random name.
In any case, the founder, who left many questions, attracts attention both to himself and to his creation.
