It was in fact, Len Sassaman.

From anonymous remailers and his penchant for anonymously released work back in the mailing lists, to MojoNetwork with Bram. His British spelling, his time zone abroad when working in academia and posting online. His circle. Before he committed suicide due to his neurological issues and loss of passion for life, Satoshi last said

“I’ve moved on to other things and probably won’t be around in the future.”

He kept this secret even from his own wife. Alas, I hate to post this here just like this but it's my belief that it's an open secret. Only those close enough to suspect and know his pathology venture the guess. His wish is to have the work carried on nameless and to speak for itself. He hated notoriety for notoriety sake. I feel disrespectful even posting this, but it was not fucking Nick Szabo.

I worked with Len 20-something years ago at PGP. I don’t think it was him, but if it was I wouldn’t be THAT surprised.

He never stuck me as into $. But rather, into crypto.

Why did he tweet this ? https://twitter.com/lensassaman/status/12213554224562176

Not saying this is evidence for or against it, but it shouldn't surprise anyone that someone who wants to stay anonymous would throw out red herrings.

I second this. If Len Sassaman was not Satoshi, at least he was a better Satoshi than Szabo.
