Satoshi was probably a Gen-Xer.
Every generation has had their "opportunity", Boomers had real-estate. Gen X / Millenials have Bitcoin.
Will be interesting to see what Gen Z has? AI? Something else?

Very interesting. I've always thought Satoshi was likely in his 50's in 2008. For sure no younger than 40.

Yes and also, he hung out on USENET with the other cypherpunks. USENET (now basically unheard of), was a distinctly Gen-X place as it reached it real popularity in 1995-2000.
BTW. I'm a Gen-Xer and I learned double-space after period in our "typing class" (yes there really used to be such a thing).

As one of the OG Gen Xers born in the mid-60s, I endorse this article and principle.

Indeed, Satoshi's expression in writing genuinely resonates with Gen Xers/Millenials.
