Hi. Professional C/C++ programmer here. The open-source code I can find written by Adam Back and Satoshi Nakamoto don't look remotely similar.
Back's code looks typical of academic Unix programmers who also hack their code to run on Windows.
Satoshi code was written by a professional Windows programmer who also wrote for Unix.
Stylistically, they look nothing alike. There's not enough time between 2005 when I can find the newest Adam Back and January 2009 when Satoshi published Bitcoin/0.1 to account for the change. Both are perfectly competent programmers, but stylistically, they are completely different.
The NYTimes tried to compare their English language in posts/emails. I'm compare their C/C++ language in their open-source code. The NYTimes merely points out they both use C++ as if that's another corroborating detail, when the actual code seems to disqualify Adam Back.

Your stablecoins have a kill switch. See the proof.
If you buy Bitcoin at $126,000
and it goes to $88,000
you can sell it
and buy it back 6 seconds later
you still have the same one Bitcoin
But you can realize a capital loss of $38,000 for tax purpose
TailsOS + KeePassXC + VeraCrypt = true digital sovereignty!
Let me walk you through how paranoid anons and high-threat-model users actually encrypt and protect sensitive data.
1) Buy a used ThinkPad X270 (~$150).
Great Linux support, removable RAM, easy teardown.
2) Remove all radios & persistent storage: Wi-Fi/Bluetooth, WWAN/LTE, SSD, webcam/mic, battery (optional).
You now have a fully air-gapped, non-persistent machine.
3/ Flash TailsOS to a USB drive from an internet‑connected machine, then boot the ThinkPad.
Now you have completely air-gapped and stateless hardware + an amnesiac operating system (TailsOS)
Store the KeePassXC database inside a VeraCrypt container for real defense-in-depth against software flaws and supply-chain compromise.
Congratulations, you’ve built a setup designed to withstand nation-state-level capabilities, with encrypted data easily portable to microSD and suitable for secure, redundant backups.
BREAKING: Bitcoin dumped $2,000 from $89.7k to $87.7k and liquidated $171 million worth of longs.
But then it pumped $3,500 from $87.7k to $91.2k and liquidated $75 million worth of shorts.
All this happened in the last 4 hours.
This is another example of manipulation on the low-liquidity weekend to wipe out both leveraged longs and shorts.
