I have seen some threads where people claim that Bitcoin was created by the FEDs or the US government. Recently, an entrepreneur and investigative journalist, Dave Troy, filed a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request with the FBI, which is aimed at uncovering information about the identity of Satoshi.
What does this Dave Troy gave have to do with identity of Satoshi nakomoto or his where about? in my opinion it is quite moronic and also waste of time.. He gave us Bitcoin and Vanished to live his life peacefully. why they just can't accept this and leave satoshi alone.The FBI responded that "Satoshi could be one or more third-party individuals, and they can neither confirm nor deny their existence". This response simply means that the FBI didn't confirm or deny the existence of any records related to Satoshi Nakamoto.
if he revealed himself, the CIA, FBI, secret service and others will want him.
But why ? he didn't break any laws.
The only people I can think of who would want him are non-government criminals to torture him for Bitcoins.
In the early days he could get in trouble for creating something that is making easier to trade illegal goods.
Back in those days I wouldn't be surprised if he got same sentence as Ross Ulbricht.
Tell me what the color nothingness looks like without telling me what the color of nothing looks like.
Best of luck to them, even those pretending to be satoshi years ago are now coming out to reveal that they aren't satoshi, gone are the days where someone will want to steal the identity, today people don't want it, hahahaha.
I've been saying this for a long time Nakamoto planned all these perfectly, he knew how big the trouble would be if he revealed himself, and as for decentralisation to work perfectly he have to hide his identity, isn't that a brilliant idea? He will be shaking right now if he revealed himself, the CIA, FBI, secret service and others will want him.

If he(Satoshi) also thinks of this fun, I guess he would have stayed initially. The government is not to be played with. What you watch on TV is different from what happens in the inside.
One of the reasons he disappeared could be to make the project more resilient, he was a central figure and this was the Achilles heel of a decentralized project.
I don't watch TV so jokes on YOU!
...still, would be fun to hear from him
I actually came across this same news 2days back outside the forum, which I read, but later lost interest as it didn't even contain enough information that should have made it a news headline. But it's great you've shared it here to let people air their view.
The FBI dude (Dave Troy) is just saying what is needed to be said. We aren't even sure of the authenticity of his information, because we all are also clueless about the true identity of Satoshi. If tomorrow, he happens to point at some random dude, calling him Satoshi, some will believe, while others won't. Satoshi's identity will continue to remain a mystery.

I don't see any problem in that. Since it's their job, and not mine, then they can do their findings. Morever, they have the time and finance to do that. But we all know what the end results has always been.

I just wish he would appear anonymously again on forum just to express what he thinks about current situation.

I don't know why people are putting so much time and energy into unveiling the identity of Satoshi.

The quest to unravel the identity of Satoshi is indeed a waste of time and resources.

No offense, but don't you think that this topic is a waste of time and something completely unnecessary? People who persistently want information about people who have done everything to protect their anonymity without doing anything wrong should understand that they are not doing anything good by their actions.
People have been filing FOIA to FBI since several years ago and maybe some of them appealed as well.
It's safe to assume none of them fared well so I doubt it's gonna be any different this time. I guess even the FBI knows it's a waste of resources as they appear to have only responded now after all these years lol.
In 2016, Alexander Muse submitted a FOIA request to the U.S. Department of Homeland Security, The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), and the Central Intelligence Agency about the identity of Satoshi. Maybe he assumed that these federal agencies would have information about Satoshi. Unfortunately, the responses of these agencies created more confusion than clarification.

Some say he worked for the CIA and his contract just ended, if so - asking CIA or FBI is pointless, they will not reveal their secrets to anyone.

No one really knows except him and people closely involved.
I really don't care who he is (Developer and cryptographer for sure), I just wish he would appear anonymously again on forum just to express what he thinks about current situation.
Would be fun

What do people think they can get out of the FBI about this?
It's incredible how normal people think that the FBI has dossiers on everybody, should be able to unmask the identities of pretty much every person, but in reality they can only work with the data they have available publicly.
Any attempts to guess or infer the identity of Satoshi Nakamoto are merely guesswork based on the above information and therefore not accurate.

Unsatisfied with the response Troy is planning to push forward for the release of any information about Satoshi. So he is planning to appeal this scanty response. The agency's inability to give any valuable information about the creator of Bitcoin shows that the identity of Satoshi will continue to be a mystery. I don't know why people are putting so much time and energy into unveiling the identity of Satoshi.

The FBI might be lying about not knowing Satoshi's true identity. This guy is an investigative journalist, his job is to reveal mysteries and find the truth. He shouldn't rely on FBI giving him info for free. He should launch his own investigation and publish the results.
To be honest, I don't care about Satoshi's real identity. Revealing his identity wouldn't change anything in the crypto world at this point.
What if Satoshi isn't a US citizen? The FBI doesn't have jurisdiction outside the USA. Maybe this guy should ask CIA, Interpol or Europol, but Satoshi isn't a spy or a criminal.

Expecting the FBI to know who satoshi was is kind of unreasonable. The FBI is involved in solving crimes. Not trying to figure out some anonymous person who chatted on a forum...
I think I would be interested to know him. Many would be interested to know him especially if they can confiscate his millions of BTC. Just think about a government learns that he is a Russian and that millions of BTC goes to Putin. I think there will be lots of people would sell their BTC. But the same thing happens if the US government confiscates the BTC if they find out Satoshi is actually from NY.
What would happen to the ETFs? If the government plans to make BTC a reserve currency, they have to get millions of BTC or maybe they already have it?

The government would be the most interested to know who is the real satoshi. I am sure that they will find ways to make Satoshi somehow responsible and answer to them. Meanwhile some people are just curious. They most likely look up to Satoshi and would want to know their identity. I have seen many dream about meeting Satoshi just to ask him questions.While others I am sure intend to rob Satoshi one way or the other. I think we as a community should just move on. Not knowing Satoshi does not really make much of a difference anyway.

Individuals usually do it out of curiosity, but certain people have other motivations. For example take the infamous Craig Scammer Wright. He harassers public figures in bitcoin world to make a name for himself and scam other people.If Satoshi's identity were known, there is a good chance that he'd be going from court room to court room today as scammers like CSW kept suing him!
Your title is bait, they didn't break the silence, they didn't reveal relevant information, and the Satoshi identity is still a mystery for all.
If we discover the reality behind who created bitcoin i don't think that would change much, the engine is already running, and that kind of information is irrelevant on this point. So, trying to find the truth is just a waste of time.

Years ago, after Satoshi Nakamoto left the forum and Bitcoin community, Gavin Andresen visit the CIA office to make a speech there, with payment. If he knows identity of Satoshi Nakamoto, CIA already were informed about it many years ago.
Gavin will visit the CIA
Hal Finney was not Satoshi Nakamoto
I gathered every Satoshi Nakamoto thread.

It is false title, and to tell us that bullshit, that the FBI has not said anything about Satoshi's real identity, the best thing he could have done is not to create the thread, or now that he has done it to lock it. If he doesn't this thread may turn into a nice spam mega thread.
I don't know why people are putting so much time and energy into unveiling the identity of Satoshi.
Maybe the reason you mentioned at the beginning is one of the reasons, I mean there are some ignorant people who believe that Bitcoin was created by the federal government or banks so you see some people interested in revealing the truth and revealing the truth about Satoshi to refute this lie.Despite the absurdity of this lie I have seen many people who believe in the conspiracy theory actually believe that Bitcoin was created by the US government or the hidden government.
