My assumption is, if he didn't want us to eventually figure it out, then he wouldn't have left all the bread crumbs (obviously some people around here will try to brush this aside). For those of you who don't know anything about this man, or only saw the hollywood movie, I can tell you I have read his works many times (other than the whole szabo blog), and John Nash IS all these men then entire works of them all is the body of the thesis/outline lecture ideal money

When this hits the media and the academics bitcoins adoption and use is going to hit its tipping point, IT HAS TOO HE REWROTE OUR SOCIETY! It will be the biggest story known to man.
Wei Dai (cited in https://bitcoin.org/bitcoin.pdf) = WI ideahttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wisconsin_Idea"The Wisconsin Idea is the political policy developed in the American state of Wisconsin that fosters public universities' contributions to the state: "to the government in the forms of serving in office, offering advice about public policy, providing information and exercising technical skill, and to the citizens in the forms of doing research directed at solving problems that are important to the state and conducting outreach activities."[1] A second facet of the philosophy is the effort "to ensure well-constructed legislation aimed at benefiting the greatest number of people."[2] During the Progressive Era, proponents of the Wisconsin Idea saw the state as "the laboratory for democracy", resulting in legislation that served as a model for other states and the federal government.[2]
The Wisconsin Idea is a philosophy embraced by the University of Wisconsin System, which holds that research conducted at the University of Wisconsin System should be applied to solve problems and improve health, quality of life, the environment and agriculture for all citizens of the state. This Progressive-era policy applied the expertise of the state's university to social legislation that benefited all the state's citizens; it led to classic programs such as regulation of utilities, workers' compensation, tax reform, and university extension services; sometimes expressed in the maxim that "the boundaries of the university are the boundaries of the state."

David Ward
http://www.news.wisc.edu/packages/wardlegacy/facts.html7.5 Total number of years Ward will have led UW-Madison, which is the longest tenure of any current leader of a Big 10 university.
Ward in 1995 delivered a "Vision for the Future," a strategic plan that laid the groundwork for dialogue and priority-setting in the learning experience, research and other important areas.
The WI idea is completely inline with the collective works of nick szabo.
Satoshi nakamoto = i am nash sato koto sato = most common japanese name (john) koto = japan national instrument
SAtosHi Nakamoto, wei dai, nick szabo same person, same nash. Each name has a key so the probability of it being coincidence is next to nil especially between 3 names.

(nash)ideal money: Nowadays however
few would propose a return to the actual use of simply the metal gold as a standard, for the following reason i. the cost of mining gold effectively does depend on the technology. .....the unpredictability of the cost is a negative factor ii. the location of potential gold-mining locations may not be "politically appealing," so it would seem undesirable to make a political choice to enhance the economic importance of those particular areas iii
There is some negative psychology about gold....
But, a modern alternative is possible, one that would provide a good standard independent of state pardoners. This idea occurred to me fairly recently."
Szabo creates 'bitgold'

http://www.weidai.com/bmoney.txthttp://blog.up.co/2014/02/11/bitcoin...thomas-edison/ http://www.bloombergview.com/article...onetary-policyEdison: Responding to Fords plan, Edison searched for new ways to stabilize the dollar, the value of which had fluctuated widely during World War I and its aftermath. His goal was to cast the variable out of money. Distrusting bankers -- the money brokers, he called them -- and a monetary policy based solely on gold, Edison called for a system that used a variety of other commodities as backing for the nations paper money supply. (He would have eliminated gold entirely, but he knew that switch- over costs and international economic ties required retaining it, at least temporarily.)
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ideal_moneyIdeal Money is a theoretical notion promogulated by John Nash, to stabilize international currencies. It is a solution to the Triffin dilemma.
"He proposed that international exchange rates be fixed by pegging the value of each currency to a standardized basket of commodities, called the industrial consumption price index. Such a policy would curtail the ability of central banks to make monetary policy."
