If this "we" was meticulously used it might also be that Satoshi was very conscious that this code would have to be ran by someone else who reviewed it before an actual consensus-driven network would arise.
So effectively "we" in this context could be anyone who thought that this code would become law for that network.
- tcmart14 4y agoI don't even know if I'd go that far. I use "we" a lot in my comments if I need to refer to a person. "We" or "us" unless I know for a fact only I will look at the code. If I am working on an Open Source project, code I know I will share/open source or code at work, I always use the plural. Bitcoin is open source, so very likely "we" just means anyone who wants to take an active role in the code for the project.
