Topic: I "Think" that I found Satoshi Nakamoto - page 9. (Read 10827 times)

Still I have to disagree: few adults would watch Pokemon even in Japan, as it's definitely aimed for kids and young teenagers. I have a bunch of Japanese friends in their twenties (being myself in my twenties) and they indeed occasionally read mangas and probably watch anime (still I have to insist on the "occasionally" because Japan is a country where you'd easily get marginalized if you spend too much time on these), but I'd be surprised that they'd watch Pokemon. I can ask around if you want. I admit that I never did. But I'm pretty sure of the answer I'll get: Pokemon is for kids (and ok, nostalgic adults too, every now and then).

But I'm not pretending to hold the truth regarding the origin of the name Satoshi. I'm just going with my own assumption that if Satoshi is indeed a pseudonym, there's a possibility that it was chosen by a western pokemon fan born between 1985 and 1995. These are just my thoughts though. Don't sweat it: I have no evidence that what I'm saying is true. You could say I'm just talking out of my ass   . Especially if the guy is really Japanese but Satoshi is still a pseudonym, then chances would become really super slim that it would be because of Pokemon's creator, since he'd have a much more developed background regarding Japanese names.

I just don't get all this fuzz about finding the guy who created it. What do you want with him? Worship him? Beat him up for being so smart? Leave the guy (or girl) alone, for once!

Calm down and think a bit. It makes much more sense that it's a group instead of a single individual. I'm with the russian, it's clear that the development of blockchain technology required multi-area expertise, and a team of individuals is the perfect image I get in my head when I think about that.

About me

I'm a second year graduate student at UC Irvine. My adviser is Michael Goodrich. I graduated with a M.Sc. in Computer Science from University of Wrocław in 2007. I joined UCI in Fall 2009. Prior to that I worked for ADB Polska.

I see.

Keep up the good work and I hope one day you can rename this thread title back to "I found Satoshi Nakamoto".

Here's another Usual Suspect: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=217732.msg0;boardseen#new

"Paweł is a theoretical computer scientist, supervised by Mike Goodrich...very recently published another paper with me and others on cuckoo hashing on storage devices with limited rewrite capacity. After he finishes he will be joining navigation-system company TomTom in Berlin."

After finding Pawel's paper. I seriously doubt Gavin knew the guy from the start or atleast when Satoshi left.

Check this

I quote Gavin from WSJ

“I think he’s an academic, maybe a post-doc, maybe a professor who just doesn’t want the attention,” said Gavin Andresen in an interview at his one-man office in Amherst, Mass., last month. “And that’s why he’s proven anonymous.”

When I saw it was your first post I told myself "damn, one more non sense noob trying to find out who's Satoshi".

But I have to say it was an interesting reading. Your articles are well constructed. I'll keep an eye to what you do.

I'm still not sure who Satoshi is and I'm not sure anyone would find out but anyway. Keep searching. In my opinion it's a single individual. I would be surprised if Satoshi was a group of person.

(The pokemon thing made me laugh )

He was just a guide and nothing much. Pawel worked on bitcoin after leaving University. He loves C++

Pawel seems to be very good with Algorithms.

There is a Satoshi in every Bitcoin enthusiast so what else do we need.. enjoy the ride folks!

So Pawel Pszona is the man behind Satoshi Nakamoto?
What about Grzegorz Stachowiak? His sidekick or something?

Gotta disagree with you here, there's no way a complex stuff like Bitcoin can be developed by a single person
I think it's gotta be developed by a group member or some sort
Or maybe it was a part of something larger than we don't know about
*Conspiracy intensifies

The more plausible theories there are, the more uncertainty there is due to saturation.  Get it? 

Does it really matter who he is? The most important thing is that he left us a valuable thing and to be honest he has all the reasons to remain in private. so let's respect that wish.

Dude,you put me in a dilemma now! Had Satoshi Nakaomoto being a single person,how would he set up the entire genesis block himself?There are couple of facts mentioned which are too certain to be true while other's are just useless assumptions created to fill in the purpose.Anyhow the article doesn't totally convince me but certainly does make me wannna research more on the facts you have mentioned.

Nice, thanks for the link.  Will read later.

i doubt that someone will actually ever find satoshi nakamoto as the team or the person was highly anonymous and they were prepared for everything in my opinion
