I tried to find Satoshi Nakamoto by analyzing the coding style So I put Satoshi Nakamoto’s 2008 and 2009 Bitcoin code into @bot Then asked it to compare that to the personal code of usual Bitcoin suspects Wei Dai’s crypto++ appears to be the closest of anything that’s publicly available (Gavin and Corey rank higher only because they used Satoshi’s code and had to learn his style). Nick Szabo only published some Javascript, but still has some stylistic similarities. Greg Maxwell and Peter Todd aren’t even in the top 20 with their non-Bitcoin repos. Adam Back is 13th. Paul Le Roux uses some of the same Hungarian style, but there are differences (Microsoft naming conventions, tabs instead of spaces). But then again, Satoshi used Wei Dai’s code for sha.cpp (but used spaces instead of tabs lol). There’s a lot to be learned from this experiment, I recommend every wannabe Bitcoin archeologist and historian to give it a try! Nowadays AI makes it super easy.
