He deserves to win the Nobel prize, but can he remain anonymous and win it?

We haven't had a single communication from him for years that's definitely from him. There was a post on a different forum from his old account this year, but nobody can be sure it was really him. The account could have been hacked, or his email name he registered with could have expired. Someone could have registered a new email account using his name if vistomail recycles old expired email names. Then they could have asked for a forum password reset using his old email account's name.

Yes. He definitely does deserve it. He has revolutionised the world by bringing Bitcoin into it. But if he does win it, how will he receive it without people finding out his identity. Maybe he now wants to shoe the world who he really is and take credit for making this futuristic currency.

Everyone know about satoshi nakamoto. The founder of bitcoins. It's still not found out whether he was a person or a group of persons. But, their discovery was ultimate. They invented and discovered what is called the world's best cashless currency. The world has understood this and they have been nominated for the Nobel prize of 2016. It's a great mark of respect for everyone. They deserve it and they're getting it now

I don't think Satoshi Nakamoto care about this Nobel Prize, it's just a crap for him even he won that novelty prize.

This would probably be the most controversial nominee, if it will happen. See the list --> http://www.nobelprize.org/nobel_prizes/lists/all/

Joke

Albert Einstein, Nelson Mandela, Martin Luther King Jr is sitting in paradise... discussing the new nominees for the 2015 Nobel prize.

Albert Einstein : Who is this Satoshi Nakamoto?

Martin : Dunno, but he must be black.

Nelson : Yea, He fights against injustice and sounds very anti-establishment. He must be black.

Albert : You being racist now....

Martin : Says the white guy... Roll Eyes

Nelson : Anyone for more refreshments?

Albert : I will have another double Jack Daniels.

Martin : Give me a double Jim Beam with water.

Nelson : You guys talk a lot of shit, when you boozed up.

It is just a trap to make him reveal himself. They will assassinate him afterwards.

I don't know from where do you guys come up with those stories. How many altcoin developers have been assassinated till now?? Or why will something like that happen?

Ha ha! I dont know if you are serious. But yes, he deserved to win it. A lot of people would say he is a 'pioneer' in his field. and his idea has actually attracted millions of people worldwide. Me thinks he deserves a Nobel.

Okay, I'll admit it. Where do I have to go to pick up my prize?

If in fact Satoshi Nakamoto was nominated and actually won the award, how would he prove that he is the person he says he is if Satoshi Nakamoto was just a pseudonym? And, what's gonna stop every Tom, Dick, and Harry from stepping up to claim the award?

Geneva Switzerland.
That is where they get awarded the nobel peace prize, so this one should be the same venue.

The award ceremonies are not conducted in Switzerland.

The Nobel Peace prize is awarded in Oslo, Norway.

The Nobel prizes for Physics, Chemistry, Medicine, Literature, and the Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences are all awarded in Stockholm, Sweden.

Ah my mistake. I have to get my European geography sorted out with these current events.
So we might see a proxy to accept the award for Satoshi Nakamoto in Sweden.

Nominations are great!

Technically there is no Nobel Prize for Economics - so what category would Satoshi qualify for? E.g., Peace, Physics, Chemistry, Literature, Medicine?) There is a prize for Economic Sciences but it's not a Nobel Prize.

It would be cool if his contribution to economics were honored...perhaps it's a bit too soon. The impact of his work hasn't been fully realized by the world.

After reading this post I cannot withstand to say that the Nobel community now should add a criteria of awarding the prize for an idea specifically rather than to the person.

Who is Satoshi Nakamoto? We don't really know.
Where does he work and which country does he live in? We don't know.
Which scholarly journals in the field of Economics or Finance has he published his research in? Not in any of the reputed journals that one would look for.
if you excpect this question,just ask to someone or website who know everything about Nobel Prize.
thats not too important,just think easily,if nakamoto included to nobel candidate,so i'm sure they know anything about nakamoto,but if this just a fault,you can check again that website Grin

When I said Satoshi has got Nobel prize, a few eyebrows were raised and finally the topic was moved to off-topic. But, now it is real. Satoshi Nakamoto has been nominated to receive Nobel Prize in 2016.

www.huffingtonpost.com/bhagwan-chowdry/i-shall-happily-accept-th_b_8462028.html

Love me or Hate me... you can not ignore me Wink

Nakamoto getting a Nobel prize seems like an awesome idea. I don't think that he'll anymore remain anonymous if he gets nominated for the prize. Also, it doesn't seem like Satoshi owns the bitcoin address mentioned in the huffingtonpost anymore.

If sato naka going to get the award real than it is time to buy bitcoin in bulk. The price going to sky rocket soon as the committee announce sato naka won.

Don't speculate like that,
there's no guarantee that satoshi gonna win the nobel prize, he just got nominated to be Wink

And i don't think he's going to win anyway because he never revealed his face before, and i don't think he can win nobel prize with that condition
Unless he reveals his face which won't happen because satoshi don't want part of his privacy getting hit

im not sure about the credibility about that article, it seems like the person that wrote it just wants the money that satoshi would potentially win.
If satoshi actually wins the nobel prize of economics though, this would be great news for bitcoin, it would bring tons of publicity and awareness to bitcoin and attract new users.

So, it's finally possible for an anonymous person/group to receive Nobel Prize

But since he/she is anonymous, he/she can't pick the prize expect he/she tell his/her bitcoin address.

But, i think it's difficult to happen now, maybe it can happen in future.

Maybe we can have someone else step up to accept the prize on behalf of satoshi Grin

The closest one i can think of is dorian Roll Eyes

Or maybe the current maintainer of Bitcoin core itself
