Satoshi Nakamoto is probably Nick Szabo?
Well, Wei Dai and b-money are cited in Satoshi's original white paper.

Only because someone else pointed out to Satoshi that he should cite them.

I know Adam Back introduced Satoshi to b-money, but (correct me if I'm wrong) this was back before Satoshi had formalized his ideas. When he first posted the paper to metzdowd's cryptography list, the b-money citation was there.

Isn't that pretty much the same thing? Satoshi didn't mention Wei Dai until Adam pointed him out to him.
