Imagine Satoshi Nakamoto was a woman.

Would anyone have painted her by a fireplace?
Or would she simply have been "the founder," no pronoun attached?

Nine pages. No gender stated. We invented one.

Satoshi Nakamoto never confirmed being a man.

The whitepaper uses no first-person gender. Early emails were formal, distant, careful. The name is Japanese and could be either.

So why did an entire industry settle on "he" within weeks?

Because we didn't look for evidence. We looked for familiarity.

What would change if Satoshi turned out to be a woman? Honestly — nothing about the protocol. Everything about the story we tell ourselves.
