Even if Nobel prize committee decide to give Economic Nobel prize to satoshi nakamoto (founder of bitcoin), i highly doubt he will be there to take that prize as he wants to remain anonymous and which is also good for bitcoin holders because when he will be exposed, there may be lot more panic in bitcoin market which can dump its price really fast.  

And if we can identify Satoshi Nakamoto, perhaps we should give the prize to the Bitcoin Foundation in the name of Satoshi Nakamoto. That would not create any panic in the bitcoin world i guess.

It is funny because do you think he will pull a Bob Dillon and not accept it then he has five years to claim it. Cheesy

Nobel prize is tainted by war criminals winning the Peace prize, etc.

Invoke the Satoshi prize for innovation IMO

Given the rate at which HFT bots steal investors hard earned money I would say it fits Bitcoin perfectly.

But yeah innovation.....

It is a BIG YES for me. He is genius, creating opportunity from nothing and now it become a billion dollar cryptocurrency. He made a unique financial ecosystem where freedom is not an issue. He deserved the award.

Satoshi have been already praised by community for what he have done for common people that is giving complete financial freedom. All this Nobel prize or Hero of the year will not be enough to award him for what he have done. Very big bitcoin community loves him and all is thankful to him of not disclosing himself to take credit of being inventor of bitcoin.

That's all... Claim Economic Nobel prize for Satoshi Nakamoto


It would have been a good idea assuming Satoshi would actually show up to receive his prize Roll Eyes

This is impossible.Satoshi will never disclose himself and they will never

give him a nobel prize.He doesn`t need a nobel prize actually. Grin

Yep. Who needs a new paperweight when you have 1,000,000 BTC? Cheesy

This is a good idea (I think I have seen a similar thread in the past) but who will get this since Satoshi Nakamoto "doesn't" exists and I don't think he/they will go in public in the future.

And since we don't know who is Satoshi to take the prize I doubt they will award bitcoin, but if they do it would be awesome for the cryptocurrency world.

if anyone deserves a Nobel prize Satoshi Nakamoto is the one for it. but they usually give these things away to people who had a great influence on their field and although bitcoin and blockchain technology is good and everyone is interested in it from investors to buy bitcoin and bankers to adapt it for their altcoins; but it is not yet that big to deserve a Nobel prize in my opinion.

No doubt Satoshi has done greatest job by inventing this beautiful first cryptocurruncy but what good has it brought to world economy is a debatable issue.So instead of Nobel for economy, he should be given Nobel in the field of science

We have to know who Satoshi is first before we can give him an award Grin
Before he received his awards, FBI might caught him.

there is a couple of things that come to mind
- if they are going to give novel prize the wouldn't do it for "bitcoin" they would give it for "blockchain" because that is the revolutionary technology which is being used more not bitcoin and the questions rises that was it Satoshi who came up with blockchain idea or was it some other coin before it (i am a bit unsure about the history before bitcoin)
- also shouldn't there be someone who receives the prize! we don't know who satoshi is or if he is alive!
Interesting, like you said the blockchain should receive the awards, but i really curious about who invented blockchain ?? i mean the concept for the first time, i google it and i found that something similar to blockchain was in a research paper by Haber and Stornetta in 1991, it means Haber and Stornetta should receive the awards, isn't it??? correct me if i am wrong though i completly agree with you that they would give the award for those who inventing blockhain.

well i am not saying that whoever came up with the idea deserves the prize but instead i believe it depends on the success of their idea. for example i know that there were crypto currencies before bitcoin but they were all small and experimental ideas. and bitcoin is the first thing that became this big and popular so that has to count for something right.

Why don't we share the nobel prize with people/person/team involved in creating blockchain as well as bitcoin? Correct me if I am wrong, Bitcoin is the longest and successful experiment by far that has shown the world what blockchain can do.

This could be very tricky. I.mean no one realy knows if Satoshi Nakamoto realy exists and if this is a real name. How could they identify him? And I don't think so that at this moment it's possible that someone gets Nobel for cryptocurrencies because this price is stil very conservative.

I can surely say that it’s going to be one of the controversial issues if Satoshi receives Nobel Prize in economics. We will also face some incidents in bitcoin as well as crypto world and there is no need to say that at least 10+ people will come up with the claim of being satoshi nakamoto. No one knows, satoshi exists or not and thus it’s going to be a difficult decision for Nobel committee to take such risk.

Interesting idea, however I doubt there would be anyone actually there to receive the prize, and even then it's even more unlikely that they would actually award Satoshi the prize. There are far """better""" choices, in their opinions, than someone who disrupts the status quo of the economic systems, and to be frank, they would likely put him at the bottom of the barrel.

What's the problem with Bob Dylan?


About the skepticism about blockchain, a lot of banks are making studies with this tech and for sure all people that have a bank account or send money via banks will use this tech, nowadays they use an old technology, blockchain will replace it.

Why not a Nobel for Satoshi? That's a new era.

btw I'm not talking about bitcoin.
