Topic: Satoshi Identity Revealed LOL - page 9. (Read 4148 times)

There's a less popular candidate that possibly "could be Satoshi", and he died tragically because "he took his own life" during July, 2011 - Lens Sassaman.

A "theory" might be made by some users of the forum about that "suicide", then connect "that" with something that happened a mere month before the "suicide".

  👀

Yes, I also believe that this statement will be like all the previous statements, they will link and string everything together, and finally they will come up with a statement with 1 name based on their research. But at the end of the day, they will have no concrete or clear evidence to be sure that the person is Satoshi.

It really annoys me that every now and then someone wants to dig up news about him when he has decided to stay silent for over 15 years. After all, even if we do find out Satoshi's true identity, what do we do next? We can do nothing but satisfy our curiosity, which is not beneficial to him or us.

I do not know who they will claim is Satoshi, but I do know that various media outlets have made claims over the years that they know the identity of Satoshi, and all of these claims have been hilariously and completely wrong. I have no expectation that this time will be any different.

Potential list from ChatGPT searches that might HBO will turn into when the show started. But seriously as per

Dorian Nakamoto Satoshi
Nick Szabo
Hal Finney
Craig wright
Wei Dai
Adam Back
Paul Le Roux
Gavin Andresen
Neil King, Vladimir Oksman and Charles Bry
Elon Musk

Some executive or producer or even director who doesn't know much about bitcoin will find something that leads to nowhere but because they are ignorant about bitcoin they are going to consider this as real and not see why it is not real. This is what happens when you do something which you are so uneducated about, you have to only focus on what you know. Maybe they are aware how wrong they are, and they just want more people to watch it.

Probably a bait to get more viewers and free press from everybody talking about this now.

What is certain is that this documentary only attracts attention in crypto circles. We know that for 16 years since the bitcoin whitepaper was released, no one knows who Satoshi Nakamoto is. In fact, there have been so many confirmations made as if it were Satoshi Nakamoto but in the end they were also refuted. And in this HBO documentary, it is also rumored to reveal the identity of the person who created Bitcoin, I think this will end in a lie too because I don't think anyone will be able to reveal the identity of Satoshi Nakamoto forever.

Although this film will discuss the origins of Bitcoin, why Bitcoin is growing rapidly, and how Bitcoin can become a rival to the US dollar. There may be more speculation about Satoshi but what is clear is that Satoshi cannot be one person, but a group of people. What is clear is that this film will not reveal anything, this film is only to attract the attention of crypto enthusiasts.

I personally don't wanna know who Satoshi is and I hope his identity won't be revealed during my lifetime as I don't see what good can it bring.

I doubt that they are really able to reveal the identity of Satoshi. At most what they do is just create a narrative by visiting various sites and then interviewing people who actually have nothing to do with Satoshi. Maybe for the audience who are not familiar with Bitcoin, they will immediately believe what they say, but for us people who have been in this forum for a long time, we can only laugh at what they say, because usually it is only based on their assumptions and opinions, and in the end they cannot reveal who Satoshi is.

You know the saying "never meet your heroes",  as there is a decent chance to end up disappointed.

I personally don't wanna know who Satoshi is and I hope his identity won't be revealed during my lifetime as I don't see what good can it bring.

If ever I had one wish that is on the top of the line, to meet or knew the guy started all of great things on crypto industry.

Not sure though but since its a documentary they might clip some old videos that could be helpful with their "show".

- 35% chance it's Hal Finney. (Over time, I've moved more probability into this category.)

- 5% chance it's a group within the CIA

Eleven years ago today…
Eleven years ago today I had my last email exchange with Satoshi; here it is:

I wish you wouldn’t keep talking about me as a mysterious shadowy figure, the press just turns that into a pirate currency angle. Maybe
instead make it about the open source project and give more credit to your dev contributors; it helps motivate them.

I’ve moved on to other things and will probably be unavailable. Here’s the CAlert key and broadcast code in case you need it. You should probably give it to at least one or two other people. There are a few long time users who are always around all the time.

You must’ve read the Forbes article… yeah, I’m not happy with the ‘wacky pirate money’ tone, either.

More credit for the rest of the contributors is a very good idea.

RE: forwarding the key/code: fricking fracking… now I’ve gotta figure out a couple of people who I can trust to keep them safe…

On a completely different subject: I did something that I hope turns out to be smart, but might be stupid.

I was contacted by http://www.iqt.org/ – they’re a US-govt-funded ‘strategic investment’ company, and part of what they do is holding an annual conference on emerging technologies for US intelligence agencies. This year the theme is “Mobility of Money”.

They asked if I’d be willing to talk about Bitcoin, and I committed to
giving a 50-minute presentation and participating in a panel
discussion.

I hope that by talking directly to “them” and, more importantly, listening to their questions/concerns, they will think of Bitcoin the way I do– as a just-plain-better, more efficient, less-subject-to-political-whims money. Not as an all-powerful black-market tool that will be used by anarchists to overthrow The System.

It might be really stupid if it just raises Bitcoin’s visibility on their radar, but I think it is way too late for that; Bitcoin is already on their radar.

I plan on posting about this on the forums soon, because “Gavin secretly visits the CIA” would spin all sorts of conspiracy theories. “Gavin openly visits the CIA” will create enough conspiracy theories as it is.
