Bitcoin's BTC/USD pseudonymous creator Satoshi Nakamoto entered April 5, 1975, as their date of birth on a P2P foundation online profile.
The day entered by Nakamoto also coincides with another significant event. On April 5, 1933, U.S. President Franklin D. Roosevelt issued the war-time Executive Order 6102 which ordered people to deliver all gold coin, bullion, and gold certificates owned by them to banks within the Federal Reserve system.
Interestingly, according to Nakamoto's profile, he is a 47-year-old man living in Japan. However, some have argued the Bitcoin creator could be a woman.
