On April 5, 1975, he is said to have been born Satoshi Nakamoto, the mysterious founder of Bitcoin, according to an online profile of him. So if the person is real, he should be in his 41st year of age.
The latest story with Mr. Wright claiming to be Nakamoto was debunked by cryptographers in the online community as quickly as the light of publicity, exposing major news outlets.
But let's see what Satoshi Nakamoto's "date of birth" hides, since if we do not know who he is, we could say that his date of birth may be trying to deceive us.
In fact, this date seems to have a hidden meaning, according to Dominic Frisby, the writer of Bitcoin: The Future of Money, which states in CoinDesk:
"For those who study, April 5th was one of the most important dates in history. On that day in 1933, President Franklin D. Roosevelt signed Executive Order 6102, which stated that it was illegal for American citizens to possess gold.
Roosevelt then confiscated all Americans' gold and gave them dollars in exchange. But it devalued the dollar by around 40 percent, raising it price of gold from $20 to $35. He did this to devalue the US debt and try to manage the Great Depression, but some argue that Roosevelt stole 40% of all America's money.
Some view this move as one of the most unconstitutional acts ever made. So it would not be surprising if Nakamoto made the link for reference to the bitcoin libertarian ideas.
The second part of Satoshi Nakamoto's date of birth - 1975 - is also very important, as it refers to the year when gold became legal again for American citizens.
