John Nash was 80 in 2008. I can see that, at 65, I’m less smart than I used to be, and I guess this is everyone’s case (but I hope I’m wrong). Also, Nash was of course very familiar with the maths of crypto, but less so with modern computer and internet systems, without which it would be very difficult to even conceive of bitcoin.</div><div dir="auto"><br></div><div dir="auto">I guess Satoshi Nakamoto was/is a hidden genius or a group. The fact that Satoshi has never used their bitcoin wealth may indicate that Satoshi is/are dead. Or maybe they are still waiting to cash in or use their wealth.

Following on from the idea of “proto-Extropian” — and given Nash’s work in cryptography, mathematics, game theory, and economics — there are 19 compelling reasons to believe Nash was Satoshi:. 1. The shared characteristic of decentralisation in Nash and Satoshi
