I seem to vaguely remember this profile (or one like it) but can't turn it up myself. Would be very grateful for the link if you do repost it.

We did a context profile on Satoshi with analysis of intel-based datacenter profiles and certain known paterns from the USSS (Treasury Fincen) crew you like so much at Yale and another specific MI5 ish unit whome you remember from Anguilla. The analysis clustered age and language patterns and identified a very tight range of character and background with institutional intent, then modeled the propaganda influence that gave rise to the BTC trend. The analysis was posted on the forums and pdf, but are missing from search. We will repost the original and add some current profile analysis. In short, the character is a 20s 2-year AS pre-law 1811 (police) with distinct interest in using US/UK and new international law *pyramid scheme policies to take over global legacy datacenters* in criminal forfeiture cases. Another party did a review of law&policy influencers of the same market and similarily isolated the core group. (no need to mention DEA+FINCEN.)

Those around cypherpunks 1993-1998 will recall Szabo's emails on

bitcoin early precursors along with Adam Back, Hal Finney, Tim May,

Wei Dai, Lucky Green, Hettinga, many more burgeoning F-Cs. NYT

piece credits cpunks as subversive birther, now being hyper-monetized

by arch-cryptoanarchist Goldman Sachs and many more centralists.



Szabo denies being Satoshi, but ... others rush to fill the gap
