This guy claims [0] to have evidence of who Satoshi Nakamoto is. Basically he claims it's Adam Back because he used the same linker for Hashcash as for (a very early version) Bitcoin.

Sounds thick milky to me, what you guys think?

It seems unlikely to me at this point that Satoshi was anyone but Hal Finney. Until someone touches Satoshi’s wallets, the coincidences are just too great.
I recently came across this: https://evanhatch.medium.com/len-sassaman-and-satoshi-e483c8...

which lays out a pretty compelling case for Len Sassaman being Satoshi. Len worked alongside Hal on PGP

I was sure too about Hal Finney until i saw this video [0]. There are a few more references that it is more likely that Adam Back could be Satoshi.
