Golden Finance reports that April 5 is the estimated 51st birthday of Bitcoin’s creator, Satoshi Nakamoto. Although the identity of this most important anonymous figure in the history of cryptocurrency remains unknown to this day, the code and ideas he left behind have profoundly changed the global financial order, and even pose challenges to central bank policy and the gold standard system.
In 2009, the birthday set by Satoshi Nakamoto at the P2P Foundation was April 5, 1975—this day also happens to be the day Franklin D. Roosevelt, the U.S. President, issued Executive Order 6102 in 1933, banning private ownership of gold to stabilize the U.S. dollar. Many members of the crypto community believe this is an implied critique by Nakamoto of the government’s monopoly over the currency issuance power.
