Topic: I'm gathering all theories about Satoshi Nakamoto (Read 3587 times)

I think it is more than 1 person and idea is from 1999

I subscribe to the Lama theory actually..
You see there is some people who actually have Animal-Symbols on their Keyboard.. like Giraffes & shit.
So some guys "fake it" online..
They simply just hit random keys then hit the spacebar "the Monkey-Key" when it looks like it should be a word.
That is how Szabo did it i think.. http://www.coindesk.com/linguistic-researchers-name-nick-szabo-author-bitcoin-whitepaper/

Satoshi does not exists the entire bitcoin idea whitepaper everything was just an accident.
my cat was hitting random keys every day because she slept on my keyboard.
and it all just sort of happened

Ah it feels good to be on, again!  BLOODYHURRAY!!!  This is not the real story!  Short Version:  My name is Jim Spellman.  I am a average joe. I have other inventions out in the world today disrupting old ways by the biggest in Silicon Valley.  I did research in 2006 and discovered the Blockchain.  I researched federal currency laws for another year and found virtual tokens legal.  I theorized a virtual token during 2007.  I spent a year in Phoenix as a cab driver meeting customers to find a coder to build my Bitcoin. Out of all the programmers i met, no one knew crptography language, until i met Satoshi Nakamoto.  Satoshi was shocked that a taxi driver would even know anything about Blockchain.  We talked more, we theorized,  we planned the building of the Bitcoin platform. We got to work in March 2008! We presented a white paper to the crypto world in November 2008. In Jan. 2009, We presented to the world a working model ready. Some of Satoshi's friends helped in beginning platform processes. In 2011, Satoshi, got bored acting like me a flaming brit, and with some health concerns and my deteriorating eyesight, we decided to ask Gavin Andreissen to run bitcoin and follow our protocols of rules.  Now after the fiasco of journalists in March 2014, Satoshi sent me a copy of all paperwork and 24,636 mined 50 Satoshi PGP keys.  I have since locked everything up in a special blockchain vault on a new invention. Can't spend until Bitcoin is a complete success.  I will know when that is when.  To clear up some notions:  Satoshi built the Bitcoin for Jim Spellman's project on NDA procedures. I have a 2nd part to Bitcoin still to come along with videos and writings, diagrams soon to make it mainstream proof.  More technologies to add to Blockchain and Sidechains. Satoshi Nakamoto is a great mathematician, coder,father and a honorable warrior!  Satoshi is American Japanese.  BITCOIN was built in Arizona and California. We fuck with you with "Brit" humuor. He is very much alive and i talked to him a few months ago.  Bitcoin has not worked completely by plan and Satoshi is a little upset with me today.  Also do not sell our writings, as someone has recently done.  They're our writings!! Unethical!  I will not pull 1 PGP key to prove, until correct time to spend them. Satoshi is everywhere!  He just does not want to deal with the press, gov., or anyone else.  That is my job as it is my project. The keys severely locked up, so we won't be donating any.  You can donate to me, SotoshiWizz if you would like, as we are living on very little to keep the integrity of the platform in check. I am a American with a clean background check. I wouldn't ruin my reputation for looking like a troll, but i did build BITCOIN!!

You are not far off, according to South Park.

My theory is Satoshi is an alien connected into our internet remotely from his home planet, and likely not an individual but an alien societal project. Their objective is to create enormous wealth on earth without having to confirm their existence or create further suspicion of it. With this wealth they will buy up massive amounts of gold which they will ionize and use to terraform their atmosphere.

Dorian is a government plant as, retired CIA, and once they establish adequate credibility they will use him in an attempt to cast aspersions against bitcoin as its a threat to fiat, and the financial services industry that lines the politicians wallets.

Associated Press claims he denies it.
http://hosted.ap.org/dynamic/stories/U/US_BITCOIN_FOUNDER_DENIAL

Newsweek claims to have found him.

Google Newsweek & Satoshi for more info...

So you think he isn't cashing out any money and he is not actively participating in the community

Maybe he is participating under an other name and he is only using btc from unknown addresses and keeping his main stack for whatever

The thing is we don't even know if he is still alive. Recent article obviously was just abuse of some random dude with same name. Actually it wasn't even same name, we don't know Satoshi real name. We can be only sure it is his nickname. His not ordinary silence might be explained rather simple. He could be dead (i hope not, but many people are hit by a car every day, he were anonymous so no friend could tell it to the world). He could just start different project. Or maybe he just stay low to slowly cash his money without taxation and leave rest of his days on Palau (I'm betting on that).

those are just common Japanese syllables.  like er, ah, and something else in American   

Looks like we actually found him. http://mag.newsweek.com/2014/03/14/bitcoin-satoshi-nakamoto.html

I didn't think this would really happen.

interesting theory and an interesting response, we should gather informations about deaths in Japan 3 months before the tsunami and make a new super-theory

It's an A.I. gone rogue that escaped from a military lab.

I do feel he may be a mathematician

His last activity on this forum is three months prior to that.

I would say the last one is more likely

Satoshi Nakamoto is a robot from the Future. 

He's a manufactured product of the NSA to fool libertarians into believing they are making a difference in society while at the same time integrating the cashless society proposed by NWO organizations like Tri Lateral Commission, UN , IMF and such.  There ya go!!!

Satoshi Nakamoto aka Kanye West

well .. it is...I will not any more post something that I had not checked... but this theory sounds fun...

isn't samsung korean?  lol

LOL

#AHA

The white paper is written with academic polish.

We're all part of an epic experiment.

Proof?

Nope. It was a few students [initially] + entire bitcoin community.

probably because the US govermant would think that Bitcoin is bad for the USD and have him arrested under false charges just like they did with Julian Assange but if it was the case with 4 well established companies as mentioned above, it would be a harder job

What would be interesting is knowing why Satoshi Nakamoto wants to remain anonymous, one can only guess that it is for legal reasons and/or because he wants Bitcoin to be decentralised and free of his creator
I wonder what he is doing now and where he lives. If I have to guess he is still living in the same country where he was when he created Bitcoin, probably the same city as well and he is still doing mathematics, cryptography and informatic, trying to get Bitcoin adopted for the greater good

Thanks Nakamoto, my adress : 1247stFukbVxL8c6bYf5NWvaCR8p68EtTg I will give back 10% of what you send me in 10years, that would be worth way more than what you sent so it is a great deal for everyone

isn't he a fictional charachter?


you sound like your name is Jesse

It's possible but I don't think it's him that would be....strange that no one else has mentioned this.

Keyser Söze bitch.

welll i can ask you: what's the creator of BTC having from that'
anonymous... if you are anonymous you have more manipulation with users...

interesting theory but what's it in for them?
and why would they choose to be anonymous?

Well i have one more theory:
Samsung, Toshiba, Nakamichi & Motorola:
 Four technology companies
 All based in Japan
 The four companies would definitely have enough knowledgable people working for them to create such a concept, and cover their tracks well

satoshi will never be found. it would ruin bitcoin. besides, he wouldn't want that kind of attention. the fame wouldn't be worth the trouble.  stay stealthy my friend.

Satoshi is dead, he died in the tsunami in 2011 in Japan. End of story.

Since Nakamoto Satoshi is a Japanese name, shouldn't that be Japanese Central Intelligence?  Unless you want to say it's romanji then it might be Gaigin Central Intelligence or perhaps, CIA in Japan. However, I haven't seen a single instance where the last name came first so it must instead mean, intelligence central, which suggests Satoshi is not American.

If Nakamoto means central origin or "Source" and Satoshi means "Wisdom", Shouldn't the name mean "Source of Wisdom" or simply "Source Code?"

The CIA
Japanese names are presented with the surname first, this would make it Nakamoto Satoshi
In Japanese , Nakamoto means "central origin", while Satoshi means "clear thinking, quick witted,, wise", i.e intelligent. The name can therefore be translated to mean "Central Inteligent"

Satoshi Nakamoto: 哲史 中本 (traditionally this would be written as Nakamoto Satoshi, but never was; probably for a good reason)
Due to the way that character based languages work, it is possible to look at each individual character to try and better understand the meaning of the name 'Satoshi Nakamoto'. In this case, since the language is Japanese, we will look at the individual Kanji, and try and find the message hidden in their meanings.
哲 - Philosophic (prefix)
史 - History
中 - Inside
本 - Origin
So if we try and turn this into some sort of phrase, we might be able to get this:
[The] philosophic history [of Bitcoin is] inside [the] origin.
But what does that mean?
The phrase "philosophic history" is a tricky one, but if a "philosophic person" (哲人 - philosopher) is one who thinks about problems and existence, then maybe philosophic history refers to history that highlights problems and shows need for existence of something.
Then there is the phrase "inside the origin". This might refer to the origin of Bitcoin, which could be the genesis block.
As is turns out, there is a well known message encoded in the genesis block, which you can see for yourself by decoding the coinbase value in the raw block data:
"coinbase":"04ffff001d0104455468652054696d65732030332f4a616e2f32303039204368616e63656c6c6f7 2206f6e206272696e6b206f66207365636f6e64206261696c6f757420666f722062616e6b73"
The Times 03/Jan/2009 Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banksthe date serves a secondary purpose of proving Bitcoin was not premined
So if we put this all together, I think that the name Satoshi Nakamoto means "the reason for the existence of Bitcoin is in the genesis block".
What do you think?

Max Keiser´s father.

I think Gavin Andresen could possibly be satoshi. Nobody would expect him to be hiding in plain sight.

very possible. that explains his outstanding ability to maintain his incognito for so long and his fear of getting exposed.

He invented a game, SatoshiDICE. But he lacked a suitable online currency. So he came up with one.

Why him?

On a serious note I though the leading theory was Grigori Perelman. The Russian mathematician.

He's thebatman.

Satoshi is el chupacabra

Would make for a great documentary, along the lines of the brilliant "Searching for the Sugarman" ... (insert better title here) .... "Searching for the bitcoinman"

Go get yourself an OSCAR!!

He is a gifted 13 years old kid, who spent all his childhood reading encyclopedias and academic papers for fun in his teens.
He wanted to keep his identity secret to avoid ad-hominem attacks of his idea.

Paul Krugman

Barack Obama.

He's Hiro from Heroes.

Unlike most people I believe Satoshi was an individual, not a group.  I believe he is / was a GCHQ employee.

"Satoshi" is more than one person. It's a whole group of people working in unisen to acquire as much BTC as they can while raising the price and making money in the process, and then they will drop all the BTC and re-do the process.

2) A group of people behind all the massive BTC sites that are driving BTC higher and higher

Man you beat me to it lol

Max Keiser.

How much do you pay?

Hello guys,

I'm gathering a list of theories on who Satoshi Nakamoto really is.
I intend to mix funny "theories" (or alleged theories) as well as more probable, serious ones.

The address is https://sites.google.com/site/whoissatoshi/

So far I only have one item in the list, please help me expand it!
