Topic: Can Satoshi Nakamoto address us? - page 2. (Read 699 times)

I firmly believe that Satoshi Nakamoto will not possibly give advice or respond to Bitcoin investing. Because it had been a long time
since Satoshi disappeared and never appeared again. No one could even look for clues to Satoshi Nakamoto's whereabouts, because
Satoshi did not leave any traces. I don't think you need any advice from Satoshi Nakamoto to become successful traders or investors.
Besides, there is no guarantee that Satoshi can provide something that traders or investors need, we just appreciate Satoshi Nakamoto's
wish not to want to appear again.

We don't need Satoshi Nakamoto to push us what we have to do in bitcoin. He already discovered and catered it to the public, he has nothing to do to address it all to the public. The good thing we can do is to appreciate his works and use bitcoin as an instrument to change the society. Bitcoin already proved a lot despite of thousands circumstances it took for several years. It just show how bitcoin is legit and genuine.

Satoshi disappearing from view of bitcoin is honestly the best decision he did. If he remained to be active in the community using his moniker, it could be politicized largely and cause some disturbances on what should be the decentralized nature of bitcoin development. Just look at Roger Ver after a while of being praised as the 'Bitcoin Jesus' which could have gotten into his mind. Most of his suggestions or ideas were left unchecked by the core devs, and when he could not see that his 'brilliance' isn't recognized by people, he forked off and created his own version of bitcoin. Now I'm not saying that Satoshi is greedy on power or anything, it's just that most of his suggestions would probably be followed by most developers and some other people would think that this is a passive-aggressive centralized control on bitcoin development, which actually isn't. That's why removing 'active' participation on the scene while it is only thriving is good, especially on decentralized things such as bitcoin.

I feel that the community can fix itself up and address certain issues surrounding it very well. After all, we're still very democratic when it comes to decisions, be it major or minor, and we have shown that very well within the last few years after many forks and many subtle changes. We need Satoshi yes, but perhaps only as a guidance in the beginning and not to hold our hands all throughout.

For someone who absolutely does not understand anything in programming or in other things related to bitcoin, there is no point in having some "founder" or creator of bitcoin give them some parting words.

What difference does it make who exactly will act as an authority figure whose opinion will be listened to. In fact, the question of whether or not to use Bitcoin is decided not by Satoshi, but by more ordinary people, such as your college buddy or just an acquaintance with whom you go to training.

Such people have a much greater influence on the opinions of people close to them than some abstract Satoshi Nakamoto.

Any coder can check the codes of BTC protocol, Bitcoin is opensource there is nothing hidden there. Nakamoto will just tell you to check it because he has no time to convince anyone to believe it.

Be skeptical all the way up to now and you will be left buying BTC at a high price. Isn't it believable already that you can see more finance firms stashing themselves with BTC?

Why then is decentralization one of the intrinsic values of bitcoin if we still need Satoshi to explain its fundamentals? Why do we need Satoshi when he had already created the white paper for bitcoin and anyone could read it? Why do we need Satoshi when there are several bitcoin-related forums like bitcointalk that have answers to any technical questions or issues that concerns bitcoin?
I believe those who are skeptical of bitcoin or believe they need to wait for Satoshi's address are those who are too lazy to make researches concerning bitcoin. All that one needs to know is already out there and you do not need Satoshi to come out addressing us. That would defeat the very purpose of decentralization.

if they are skeptical on btc why they are here ? they shouldnt trade because that can have an impact on what they are doing . what technical question they want to know , i think all of the technical question are already answered if not on this forum , it can be search outside . satoshi or every coin creator can only give one advice when it comes to investing and that is to invest only what you can afford . they wont give further advice because that will look like they are controlling the people to invest on them  . the rest will be a secret and they wont spoil it

For those that needs encouragement from satoshi directly don't have to, because encouragements are here in bitcointalk community, every thing needed to comprehend concerning the rudiments of bitcoin is in the platforms and it can be acquired through observation and research, and also internet, if found anything contradictary or confusing in bitcoin, make use of YouTube videos for proper education and enlightenment, and skip the ideology of satoshi explanation.

So people been skeptical about Btc trading, its based on individual difference and looking at it from other perspective, is because those people are not informed concerning bitcoin labour market or don't have the basic knowledge of cryptocurrency trading especially bitcoin, so therefore their are liable to ask questions to enable them to understand the confusing aspect of it



See,looking at everything on earth, nothing that do not have enemy, criticizing bitcoin is obvious because many people across the world is criticising Btc because they want down fall of btc, so emphasising that satoshi is only person that can defend the interest of btc so looking at it from my views is  not ideals because many people can protect the interest of btc provided btc is in existence.

have you get these question in mind?and wait!! are you an investor?did you even bother putting money here and not just questioning bitcoin?
because these thoughts and question must came from investors or soon to be one in which concern in his  funds.
it has been answered a thousand times here and it's not only Satoshi can answer that because there are some people here that has deep
knowledge about Crypto currency and specially Bitcoin in which they have spent years studying and learning about this.

Next you'll be asking Henry Ford to come back from the dead to justify why cars work like they do.   

You can either accept it for what it is or you can't.  It's your call.

Satoshi never did trade, so how can he answer technical questions?


No, there's no direct proportion whatsoever, it's your opinion that is not being shared my others.


Wrong again, let me leave his quote here:

"If you don't believe me or don't get it, I don't have time to try to convince you, sorry." - Satoshi Nakamoto, July 29, 2010

Bitcoin forum and developer community are more than enough to answer some technical questions about bitcoin, actually it might have been answered.


No need to counter all the criticism as it will always be there, endless. Many questions are better to remain unanswered, Satoshi had shared his vision about bitcoin as a new electronic cash system, peer-to-peer with no trusted third party.

No other encouragement you need than what you are already seeing with bitcoin since 10years ago. The advantages far above whatever discouragement you can develop by yourself. Don't stay back while positive minds are going in for it , trading. Investing and hodling for greater profit in the future. You already also seen that it is decentralized, is between you and who you want to disclose to.

First of all let's start from the fact that Satoshi is gone for good.

Wrong. They don't need response from the founder if they have technical issues. Here's a category. Make any question you want. No Satoshi's responses.

Why only Satoshi can defend? On the whitepaper you can see in the introduction why it is decentralized.  As for the anonymity, it may just occurred. Making hashing algorithms to receive money makes you anonymous.

I'm pretty sure his vision wouldn't have to do anything with trading/investing. He never mentioned it. Neither store of value. Just cash.

You're perfectly fine living and breathing without questioning why you live like that right? Then I suppose you, and many others would be completely fine using Bitcoin as designed by Satoshi. Those are simply needless questions, made to satisfy your craving for curiosity, as well as add more flames towards who Satoshi is mostly since he's a popular topic. It's like back then, when philosophers used to question life and death, said topics were popular since we were still learning, but now? Were those questions really answered? And does knowing said answers make your life much satisfying than those that do not know of it?

Satoshi pretty much left the documents and papers about how he made Bitcoin, the technicalities, and such. If questions arise that answers can't be found there, then research must simply be done through ones own hands via testing. He already left it up to us how Bitcoin develops, which is why in the first place, designed it as decentralized.

This is nonsense.Do you think that the average Bitcoin newbie cares who Satoshi Nakamoto is?Do you think that the people,who know little to nothing about Bitcoin will view Satoshi Nakamoto as some kind of authority?
Maybe Satoshi Nakamoto left the Bitcoin community,because he hates the fact that Bitcoin had turned into a financial asset,rather than a real currency.
I don't think that Satoshi is the only one,who can defend Bitcoin against criticism.The Bitcoin community is defending BTC pretty well and most of the criticism against Bitcoin is ignorant BS anyway,so there's no need to pay attention to the critics of BTC.

wrong. the network and the protocol are there for everyone to see and every second that bitcoin exists and securely operates for lots of users worldwide is more than enough answer for anybody with open eyes. keep in mind that bitcoin is not some company or brand with an "owner" that needs to sell it to make money. it is a currency that people can choose to use when they see the benefits of it.

That will not support us in making bitcoin our future, we need answers.

Although we are already investing on bitcoin, we still need to have a way or perception towards future. The bitcoin community are just seizing the opportunity because bitcoin has a lot of potential, and in order to manipulate bitcoin properly, Satoshi should really inform us about his point of view and mission about bitcoin. Bitcoin is very volatile and we need to overcome and deal with it for so many years. However, we just need to be patient and act depending on the situation in the market.

What are you basing these statements on? Did you conduct a research and questioned hundreds of people to gather enough data? Cause it's very rare, especially among those who haven't tried Bitcoin yet, to question Satoshi's decisions. And Satoshi hasn't been around for so long that no one is actually thinking that they can answer him a question, so the amount of people who don't adopt Bitcoin because they want answers from Satoshi might be literally zero.

You can see what is his intentions when you read his posts and his whitepapers regarding Bitcoin, it's up to the people to formulate something about it. He left but at the same time he gave us freedom on what we should do and it should be kept that way. This is why people use Bitcoin, it can be used in anything that people want to.

What more can he say? what more can he defend? How is this "encouragement" going to help us anyway and what type of encouragement is this? is it like a statement saying good things about how Bitcoin will help people blah blah blah? do you really think it's important at this point? I don't think so.

People already saw the potential of Bitcoin, people already saw what Bitcoin can do and why is it that way, and how we can use it. At this point Satoshi can just sit back and relax and see how will Bitcoin flourish through the years.
