In 2021, the rumor that Satoshi Nakamoto is working on the FEG project has not been confirmed or denied by its creator, nicknamed Feg Rox. It should be noted that the domain of the site fegex.com, which has already been launched, has been purchased for years, and other evidence has been published in cyberspace to support this claim by FEG currency fans. https://www.whois.com/whois/fegex.com 151.245.95.73 (talk) 23:58, 15 November 2021 (UTC)

Weird font for his name
Is there a reason his name keeps being spelled in a weird font throughout most of the article? --Aabicus (talk) 08:23, 8 December 2021 (UTC)
- I came here looking for feedback on this. It's because all of the incidences of "Satoshi Nakamoto" as well as the mention of "Shinichi Mochizuki" are flagged as Japanese-language text despite being romanized. So they are being rendered in roman characters in the page's default Japanese font, which differs in appearance from the rest of the English text.
- Since the name is romanized (not in actual Japanese text), and that standard does not appear with romanized names from any language (including the linked article for Shinichi Mochizuki) that I have ever seen, it seems to be wrong, and at the very least is extremely inconsistent with other articles. I can't edit it either, but it seems like someone who can should do so, unless there's a specific reason for this article to be different.

Is it Linus Torvalds
Much speculation, but I can't edit the page.
Root cause: https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blob/ac632c504d0b881d7cfb44e3fdde3ec30eb548d9/Makefile#L6
Many articles linking 2 for reference:
https://beincrypto.com/linus-torvalds-confesses-is-the-father-of-linux-also-the-father-of-bitcoin/
https://modernslave.io/is-the-father-of-linux-also-the-father-of-bitcoin/
Although nothing appears very mainstream to me.
I think he's worth a mention for sure. The "other candidates" section seems to be a nice spot for it. As was said above, editing the page doesn't seem to be possible. Some help from users with the extended confirmed access would be greatly appreciated. Artemaeus Creed (talk) 04:19, 3 April 2022 (UTC)
