Why Bitcoin's 2015-2017 fork wars ran as identity contests, not OSS disputes: the post-2011 authority vacuum, the economic weight on rule choices, and the three layers that bound code to currency.
Mike Hearn and Gavin Andresen released Bitcoin XT 0.11A, a Bitcoin Core fork implementing BIP 101 — 8 MB blocks doubling every two years. The launch opened the public phase of the block-size war.
On November 20, 2011, Bitcoin v0.5 shipped with the Crypto++ SHA-256 subset removed and replaced by OpenSSL. Wei Dai's library, a direct codebase dependency since v0.1, was gone.
A reply that read like the continuation of Satoshi's thought — and two days later, Satoshi went silent. The evidence for HBO's Peter Todd identification, weighed.

HBO documentary Money Electric (Cullen Hoback) named Peter Todd as a Satoshi candidate, citing a 2010 BitcoinTalk reply about RBF and Todd's later BIP 125. Todd called the claim ludicrous.
Canadian cryptographer, Bitcoin Core developer. Proposed Replace-by-Fee, built OpenTimestamps. Joined BitcoinTalk as retep in Dec 2010. Named a Satoshi candidate by HBO in 2024 (denied).
