I wonder what's Satoshi's password. Anybody with a lucky guess? Cheesy

He invented the blockchain. Im sure he used a complicated ass password not worth trying to guess.

Don't Let Anyone Tell You Satoshi's Identity is NOT Important

It's not important. I think bitcoin is better off with him remaining unknown, and clearly he wants it to be this way.


Sure, if you want him to get killed, it is important.

More likely imprisoned than killed, but the press would likely hassle him to death.

Satoshi's identity is known - it's Satoshi Nakamoto, inventor of bitcoin, author of the bitcoin whitepaper, etc.

The inventor of bitcoin isn't anonymous - we know who created it. Satoshi Nakamoto did. We just don't happen to know the government-approved name this person has on some stamped piece of paper that his parents got from the state.
and
I don't equate identity exclusively with government-approved social security numbers, birth certificates, etc.
Exactly this.

And besides, Satoshi's idea is important, not his identity.

In this ego and image related society, it looks like people always want a visible face to worship. Go to NK you freaks! ideas is all that matter, not the person behind it.

I notice that you use their word "their". So do you really mean to imply that satoshi is not an individual rather than a group of people?

satoshi might be gavin or andreas.

Do you have a proof for your "judgments"? Or is it only your personal opinion?

No not sure he has proof because Satoshi "'might"' be Gavin or Andreas  Smiley

I would go with personal opinion imo

I think Satoshi 'might' even be a lady who pretended to be a man, master of misdirection and you will never find him/her.

OP, Satoshi felt his identity was not important so i think we should go with the flow and just love his baby like our own he may well show his face one day  Wink

As written in the article:

"Satoshi claimed to reside in Japan, although searches and inquiries into his true identity turn up few results. Facts that were uncovered seem to be contradictory and purposefully led followers on a false trail. In his early days working on the project, Satoshi was known for a business-like demeanor and very seldom revealed details about himself, instead dedicating himself feverishly to the bitcoin project."


For me this is enough, but a lot of people are curious.
It is. People is obsessed with egos and attaching faces to projects. Since open source was invented we don't need all this ego shit. It only leads to fights and having "a leader" is the worst thing that can happen specially to a currency.

I dunno. I think the real Satoshi is probably incredibly pragmatic. He'd probably get a major kick out of reading these posts because they seem so extreme in characterizing him as their "god" or messiah or even martyr or whatever.

The system is open source, the identity of the author is henceforth unimportant.

Satoshi Nakamoto set in motion the unraveling of the nation state

You sound like the kind of person who denounces the state as a legitimate authority.

So why then, do you then continually equate 'identity' with only government-approved identity?

I don't equate identity exclusively with government-approved social security numbers, birth certificates, etc.

I believe we should always have the option to go back to our original state, that of the identification with man and nothing more.

not to want an identity attached to the source code.
So who is Satoshi Nakamoto? Information on their identity remains unknown.
Satoshi’s last call was to deemphasize his unknown identity.

So who is Satoshi Nakamoto? Information on their identity remains unknown. Bitcoin has since evolved without their input, put forth for anyone willing to experiment with the technology. Satoshi’s last call was to deemphasize his unknown identity.

When Satoshi had the basic foundation of the bitcoin client built, he transitioned the responsibilities to a group of early enthusiasts and withdrew back into the shadowy depths of anonymity. Nothing tangible has been heard since, although they’re widely regarded to still be alive and keeping a pulse on bitcoin developments.
