Me too... I wonder if is there any info that can guarantee that he's a native English speaker or if is there any spelling mistake that can lead to believing that he can be Japanese.

Another thing that I noticed is that he was (or is) humble in his words. That's why I'm pretty sure Craig Wright isn't the real SM. An arrogant and anti-social person like him could never be the same person who was willing to help/create the (inexistent) crypto community at the time.

This Craig scammer is being sued for stealing BTC from one of the BTC creators.`

A question that I'm thinking is, wouldn't be Kleiman the real SM? Well, he's dead atm but who knows?

Interesting attempt to track and maybe identify who the real Satoshi is. But it seems futile because Satoshi wanted to be remain faceless when he created Bitcoin and when he eventually handed over the development to the right hands. What's important is what Bitcoin has done and where it's going.

he hides himself for years already. he could have deleted all his posts and tracks but leave. i think its better for us to respect what he wants
he made all these things possible right now i think all these are something to be grateful to him but leave him as private as he wants. besides you won't be earning anything if you learn who he is.

Yeah, I recall a similar question asked pretty recently, the search for Satoshi started many years ago, shortly after his/their disappearance. Investigative journalists, naturally, tried to track him/them down using exactly this kind of analysis, but I suppose there simply wasn't enough written material available, even with the volumes that Satoshi did produce.

xdrpx shares quite interesting reads on Szabo, but one of the most compelling pieces I found that should merit mention is this guy:

As he notes, a lot of red herrings and probably deliberate attempts by Satoshi to keep inconsistent writing styles to render lingustic analysis somewhat inaccurate.

Thanks for the responses all, really appreciate it, on my way to checking out all those links. Before seeing any responses I geeked out and went through most of satoshis posts from 2009-2010(on bitcointalk); here are what seem to be the most idiosyncratic bits, and notes on spelling variations:

satoshi's vernacular/style:

-I don't question that GPL is a good license for operating systems- (license-American English)
-I did a rough tally of 4000 blocks-
-(more experience in Windows than Linux)-
-Bitcoin is still very new and has not been independently analysed.- (Analyse- British english)
-Nothing against GPL per-se, but Bitcoin is an MIT license project-  (license-American English)
-The foreground is now exactly the same colour as the BC in the old one. (Colour-British English)
//contra: -I have to guess it has something to do with your display color depth selection.- (color- American English)
-The screen just goes haywire.-
-If we get too big, then by the same token, we're big enough that we don't need IRC-
- it gets too swamped with moochers using them for free bandwidth.-
- Any site that gets well known has to become more aggressively pay-naggy to cover bandwidth costs-
-do transactions without being full blown nodes.-
-Hurray!  We have our first language.-
-This is now fixed in the SVN version. 1) Menu bar default color.- (color- American English)
-The design supports a tremendous variety of possible transaction types that I designed years ago.- (written in 2010)
-massive development and maintenance hassle for me.-
-I would have to air a lot of disclaimers- (air- American english?)
-They've got it awfully buried considering 9 out of 10 users are used to having it on the right.-
-Most programs are a bunch of memory access, comparisons and branching, they rarely get down to cranking away at maths for very long.-
- Like cash, you don't keep your entire net worth in your pocket, just walking around money for incidental expenses.-
-BTW, I did come to my senses after that brief bout with 1.3-
-Sorry to be a wet blanket.  Writing a description for this thing for general audiences is bloody hard.  There's nothing to relate it to. (this screams British to me!)
-and let it start over downloading the block chain again. -
-Sorry to be a wet blanket.-
-A rough back-of-the-envelope example:-
-Correct me if I'm wrong (please, and I'll gladly eat crow) -
-WikiLeaks has kicked the hornet's nest, and the swarm is headed towards us-
-and get mad at the pool operator-
-and I'll keep my own tally or static record of them-
-ribuck's description is spot on-
-poedit reorganised the file for some reason- (British variant of organise)
- If it jumbles the order -
- nip in the bud-
-It ramps up the fee requirement -

I bet a proper analysis of times of day at which satoshi was most active would be an interesting clue also..

.. also, I would like to thank Adderall for the 3 hours of hyper focus that could never normally be justified!!!

It is interesting that people are fascinated with knowing the true identity of satoshi. Most of his posts don't give any true indication to where exactly he is from.
If he is from outside the UK or USA his English is excellent.
I like the fact that his true identity is unknown it adds to the lore of bitcoin. If we were to learn his true identity what then?

When you get the check his profile also you will amaze that you are seeing the profile of cryptos father 'Satoshi Nakamoto' I was research about when entered into the forum onwards but he is completely anonymous in every way of the contact to the outer world.
I went through his anonymous mails as well and used that once too. As of now Some people are saying that he is from Japan and other side thought is he may be Aussies guy. Not sure about his linguistics.

Yes, I think their should be some expert study on his post history on bitcointalk and I think we can surely find some clues about his identity. I really find this interesting as the post history of the founder account is great to study. We can really get a closer look on the knowledge of the creator of the first cryptocurrency Bitcoin.

Another hunt for the legend and since you are comparing the linguistic analysis i would say he is from a common wealth country,what ever conclusion anyone come up with will not make any difference unless the man behind the real deal could prove that he could sign in from his old wallet that is know or from the genesis block because that is the only sensible thing that could prove the identity.
