I will not be revealing him, but that is so hard to contain. He is one of the mystery of the internet. For a long period of time, no one can actually discover the identity this person or group and if you actually found him that would be something that I wouldn't contain, but I should be. I respected his leave, we don't know him so he might have his own reason for that.

No.

I think satoshi deserves his privacy if he were to decided to come forward it would be best done on his own merit rather than being exposed as satoshi.

"The right to privacy is our right to keep a domain around us, which includes all those things that are part of us, such as our body, home, property, thoughts, feelings, secrets, and identity. The right to privacy gives us the ability to choose which parts in this domain can be accessed by others and to control the extent, manner, and timing of the use of those parts we choose to disclose."

Yael Onn, et al., Privacy in the Digital Environment, Haifa Center of Law & Technology, (2005) pp. 1–12

...

"Each individual is continually engaged in a personal adjustment process in which he balances the desire for privacy with the desire for disclosure and communication of himself to others, in light of the environmental conditions and social norms set by the society in which he lives."

— Alan Westin, Privacy and Freedom, 1968

I'm terrible at keeping secrets so I hope it ain't me.

And I'd also be annoyed at him for being slack enough to put me in that position.

Straight to Fox News it is then. I'd give him a 30 minute head start.

If you thought you had found the real satoshi with 99.9% certainty would you reveal the identity?

Vote Yes or No?

Satoshi is currently hiding in my basement,but I will never reveal his identity. Grin
Jokes aside,how can I find a guy that's been hiding successfully for so many years?
I'm one of the people,that believe in the theories that Satoshi is either dead or he's actually a team of programmers.
Anyway,we have to respect the right of other people to stay anonymous.

No not at all.
Why should we reveal the identity of a person who is himself hiding himself from this cruel world for the past 10 years?
Better we should respect his decision and give him his own privacy.
If somehow his identity is leaked, then i can bet that from his life 'peace' will be soon lost, as many authorities will run for him.
Let's keep the things going on as it is going and enjoy the amazing creation of Satoshi.
Love you Satoshi.

If there ever is a chance to know him in person, I still wouldn't out his identity. It would be an excellent opportunity to meet him someday. I doubt it would happen though.

I know that there are a couple of people trying to lure people into Bitcoin and telling a bunch of shit stuff that isn't true. I have heard a bunch of outrageous stories like they are a group of people that are going to excite another coin and they are just letting people buy into that shitcoin and get your money with that. That's an awful way to hype people into crypto, just awful.

Of course, not. Why would I? The man has already chosen to stay private so I better give him the privacy that he prefers. It's plain showing of basic respect.

But this is not just with Satoshi but also with other people unless, as mentioned by hatshepsut93, the person or people involved are proven criminals. Otherwise, no one has the right to reveal anybody's identity to the public.

And, finally, this Satoshi hunting has to stop. It brings us nowhere.

We have different explanations, but majority answered "no" to honor his creation and pay respect where it's due. But, it's inevitable for some people to get tempted with how much does a company offers to disclose sensitive information about Satoshi (If you knew him 99.9%).  It could be me or you. Would you turn down a $1million offer for a live 5 minute interview about Satoshi's  whereabouts? That question is actually the real challenge in this discussion.

So, I won't be hypocritical about the answers, we might say No at first, but it could also mean Yes on the latter.
As we'll noticed there are still posts about trying to uncover who Satoshi is, and that means somebody out there was trying to figure out who's the real Satoshi is, and I'm very sure he'd definitely reveal it the moment he gathered the information.

However, me myself have to say No as well. The only thing Satoshi wants is anonymity, and that's not something difficult for us to do as a sign of respect.

99.9% certainty is impossible, because even if one has identified him as Satoshi there needs a person to confirm him as real Satoshi. Till date we haven't got any of his friends or colleagues confirming his identity. From the discussion he has made through our forum, it is clear that he's just a common joe. This makes it a hard task to identify the true person behind the large network.

I would say No, as well, revealing his identify will not bring any good in the bitcoin community. Besides, we have been enjoying his creation since day one, so let him rest if he chooses to. I think this is the most appropriate action we can do, to let him live his life in privacy for the rest of his life (that is, if he is still alive by this day) regardless if there is a bounty on his head or not. He is not a criminal, so I doubt though that anyone will offer money in return for revealing or identifying the Legendary Satoshi Nakamoto.

It is impossible to identify the real person behind the moniker as he did not leave many clues behind if not he would have been ousted by now and the only way to identify the person will be the way in which he paid for the domain he registered and for that we need the help of authorities to crack that as he might have gone through many layers to safeguard his identify.

With all these stipulation in place there is no way i will be able to identify the person and hypothetically even if i get the authority to check the payment layers i might try to crack that puzzle because of my curiosity but not to expose his identity to the world.

I wonder if most would still answer "no" if USA's government suddenly offered them a few good million bucks for the information. Knowing the world as it is, there'd be so many that would sacrifice his privacy to their own advantage. I would personally not do it no matter what offering I'd possibly get. As long as I want my privacy to remain at the level I want it to be, I'd have to be such a douche to destroy another person's life for whatever I'd get in exchange, be it fame, bucks or anything else.

There are so many people out there ignorantly sharing their personal life online caring 0% about it that I'm quite sure there are lots of members who'd say they would reveal it tho.

No way, everyone deserves privacy, and I wouldn't reveal anyone's identity, unless they are a criminal. The search for Satoshi or some of the infamous reddit's doxxing campaigns clearly show how harmful these things can be when innocent third parties get very negatively affected by the actions of careless people who don't respect anyone's privacy. It's especially bad in America, where evil people can call swat of just about anyone and potentially get them killed.

It would be great to finally see him, it would be an honor to meet Satoshi but if he is going to be exposed, something might happen to him after it. And I might be blamed by the people above who voted NO.  I'd rather not tell anyone about my finding. I wonder though how I'm going to be 99.9% sure he is Satoshi. He wouldn't be wearing an ID with the name Satoshi Nakamoto on it. There is no real data about him too.

Bitcoin needs you!
It’s definitely a NO from me too. Like other members have said - if someone has gone to so much effort to protect their identity , them they deserve to remain anonymous . But, if I knew who he was I would certainly want to meet him , just not reveal his identity to anyone else  Smiley

Could be, if the price is right  Cheesy lol just joking. You know if I was that super curious about him, tried to get close to him and finally found him, that will be the greatest achievement to the cryptocurrency history, more epic that bitcoin reacing 20 grand. And knowing him just by yourself is priceless, no need to let the others know especially the government for some reason. And I'm sure if anyone in here was Satoshi, he also don't want his identity to be disclosed, unless he's an idiot.

No because that would give him/her an incentive to spend some of those unspent bitcoins mined and tank the price.    Wink
Amazingly his bitcoin baby, after launching it and getting it properly bootstrapped is doing just fine.  Grin
The *only* upside I can think of with him being revealed is that (s)he would shut up CSW once and for all!

Definitely not! Why would I reveal the identity of a person who himself wants to stay hidden and gifted us such an wonderful idea like bitcoin. There's no good reason for us to evade his personal space and make his life miserable. Do you think the enforcement agencies will let him live in peace if by any chance his true identity is identified?

Satoshi is a reason behind the financial success of a lot of people in the world, including me! So we wouldn't even try to find his true identity because we respect his decisions. If he himself wants to be identified, he would do that himself!
