I don't think this date is just symbolic because of Executive Order 6102 and its abolishment. It seems like overthinking to me, so it might just be the day Satoshi was born. This person might have left this true date back in the times when Satoshi wasn't that popular, so there was no point at fully hiding one's identity up to the small details. So Satoshi, whoever you are, I want to thank you for your creation that's been truly revolutionary and literally changed the lives of dozens of millions of people who now use it. I hope you're alive and well, possibly even reading this stuff from time to time while staying aside and doing something else with your life.

"As a subtle jab to central banks, Satoshi chose his birthday as the date the US made gold ownership illegal through EO 6102 April 5th. He chose 1975 as his year of birth which is the year when the US citizens were allowed to own gold again."

More or less everything satoshi did was likely calculated from the get-go ...

Lois Lane:

How do you find someone who has spent a lifetime covering his tracks?

For some, he was a guardian angel. For others, a ghost, who never quite fit in.

What's the S stand for?
