You say other previously active member would have been identified base on this writing and coding style. There is exacly what Skye Grey says he/she’s doing for matching Szabo with Satoshi on the blog LikeinaMirror—he say’s he’s 99,9% sure Szabo is Satoshi. https://likeinamirror.wordpress.com/2014/03/
Dorian Nakamoto theory may have any ground?
What made you think Satoshi motivation was distrust rather than crypto-anarchy? Someone that have loose money for instance in Lehman Brothers banrupcy? It was also in 2008
Why is anonimity important to crypto community? Just to confirm, Wei Dai is a pseudonym?

Because he said so. Haven’t you done any background reading? (And how many private individuals could have lost money in Lehman Brothers anyway...)
Thank you so much Wei Dai for all the answers.

Thank you again
I agree with gwern’s answers and will add a couple of my own.
No, I doubt it.
We think it’s cool because the technology falls out of our field of research.
Anonymity provides privacy and security against physical violence, and cryptographers tend to care about privacy and security.
Grey’s post is worthless. I haven’t written a rebuttal to his second, but about his first post, see http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1ruluz/satoshi_nakamoto_is_probably_nick_szabo/cdr2vgu

Seriously?
No, it’s real.
