Why there's no Japanese option? I'd say this is the most obvious pick Cheesy
What if he has more than 1 nationality?

I don't know, I guess he's some liberal from the US who wanted to create the perfect currency for liberals around the world!

I think he is European, but not from the UK. That's because his creation is in fact very anti-bank and freedom oriented. That kind of mindset is very strong in some European countries (stronger than in the US, UK or Japan).

His English is very good, so I would assume that he is not from southern Europe. Norway, Sweden, Finland, Denmark, Netherlands, and Germany would be the most realistic countries in terms of both language and mindset.

ya.ya.yo!

I think satoshi is not one man, I think satoshi is made of a team from different nationalities but mostly Caucasians.

will people please atleast do your research.

its british..

please bring back the newbie section to give these noobs time to do some research

2 easy tell tell signs

1. he writes using english grammar and spelling
2. the genesis block references a british newspaper

end of



1 - Joseph Conrad learned english at the 30's and is one of the biggest english writters. Anyone can learn english to perfection, and there are schools that teach the brithsh english. Or it could be only a distraction.

2 - Most of scientific papers will quote papers all around the world, so it means nothing.

I think he means that he chose a Times of London article as a proof of date for his genesis block:

Quote
"The Times 03/Jan/2009 Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks," serves as Satoshi’s choice to time stamp for the block chain as basic proof that he could not have made the first block before January 3, 2009.

He did also use the phrase "bloody hard" in one of his posts which is not a typical American phrase. Doesn't mean that he's British though. He could be a Canadian or an Australian, or even a New Zealander. Or it could all just be a ruse designed to further conceal his identity.
