Bitcoin was invented in 2009 when Peter was 23 years old. Looks like they both are Satoshi

Peter Todd is not Satoshi.
Adam Back is not Satoshi.
Hal Finney is not Satoshi.
Nick Szabo is not Satoshi.
Craig Wright is definitely not Satoshi.
Elon Musk is not Satoshi.
Vitalik Buterin is too young to be Satoshi.
From 2009 to 2011, Edward Snowden was in Tokyo studying Japanese. Snowden is not Satoshi.
(here you can put anyone you can think of on the list who has an alibi.)
They were, or are, part of it. Satoshi was a group project, probably involving a lot of caffeine. Grin

Yes, if it was a crew or a group project as you say, it would explain why Craig Wright is so confident and arrogant when he claims to be Satoshi Nakomoto, he knows it was a team, and he belongs to it one day, or he considers having fully been part of it at least, and thus being one of the several Satoshi Nakamoto existing. IMO Hal Finney was the main author of the white paper but he wasn't able to code, to test and to market it alone, so he asked some people to help him for free, against IOU or just cash money.
