He wasn’t just using British spelling, but British coloquialisms that are not taught abroad. And he clearly wrote at a “native” level. And he was active - writing commits and emails - in UK hours, not American hours. Is it some kind of US nationalism that insists on ignoring all this?

He would use terms like "bloody hard" or "wet blanket" which I would doubt are taught to foreigners learning English even with British spelling.

However - his spelling was a bit inconsistent. The "Len Sassaman" theory is interesting - as he was known to write in a somewhat British style (for whatever reason) - but not consistently - and was in the right timezone at the time. Or perhaps Satoshi was a synthesis of multiple different people which would explain a lot of the inconsistency as well.

Isn't there a guy literally called Satoshi Nakamoto, that lived near and friends with Hal Finney, in California.

I think SN was probably more than one person, and I do think it was built with government involvement. The doxxed Satoshi himself worked as a government contractor I believe.

These coloquialisms are common in Africa/Asia. This is the case for most ex-colonies.

You send it via courier company and after 2001 you can bet they are tracking and recording it.

So I paid cash and lied about my name to the semi-shady courier company..

Would you lie in the court or to the police? If so then it would be harsh lesson for you because you would get yourself in prison.

How would this end up in court in front of police? The point is its not hard to lie to a courier service.
