Topic: Satoshi Nakamoto - The Creator of BTC - page 5. (Read 6080 times)

They likely don't get time off to work on sometimes as awesome as bitcoin. Probably have to work in a boring office software or something  
I mean, even Tim Berners Lee had to  ask special time off to create the World Wide Web, his employer didn't think it was so important.

I disagree! all roads lead to Finny in my little research. But whatever, you are entitled to your opinion. We can never be sure until he comes out.

the dorian saga started on this forum and for days no bitcoin creator announcement. but it wasnt until it hit primetime news media, that the announcement post on the other forum came about.

if he was to be watching this forum, he would announce it here. but the theory is that he does not follow this forum and instead simply seen it on the TV and went back to the forum he specialises in and follows more often.


hal finney is hal finney satoshi is satoshi, two separate entities with 2 separate skill sets, 2 separate writing styles.

he claimed to be japanese but his posting time in this forum looked to be from Usa timezone
who knows..

If i had to put BTC on it, i would say Satoshi is Hal Finny. God bless him ( fig of speech.. agnostic here)

she will return

Satoshi is still around. Watching enough that when S. Dorian Nakamoto was accused of being Satoshi, he posted to an old and dormant coding account that He was not Dorian. We don't want to know who he is. He holds too much btc. Nothing good would come of that.

Yes, mhm, not trollish one bit.

What about the rest 1%?

It would be too obvious for the US government to pick a Japanese name. Besides, 99% of the people in the US government do not have the skills to create something like bitcoin.
Also keep in mind that multiple people worked on Bitcoin   It's a successful open source project, something that would be impossible in the closed source world.

Some relate Satoshi with Andreas.

I have my thoughts on the pseudonym being a cover for the US government, but no one is sure. It's a digital currency that's global and the most prominent digital currency. It's going to take out the fiat currencies and some companies only accept Bitcoin for payment. If Bitcoin eventually becomes the only currency in existence, then perhaps it's the "one world currency" the Illuminati are trying to create.

noobs stop speculating

here is some clarification
1. the bitcoin protocol was made from different elements, such as peer-to-peer concepts, encryption, decentralised database,block creation. these are all small little projects that can be researched way back into the mid 1990's from many sources of white papers. but the end result of the actual bitcoin protocol that brought all of these different concepts into one perfect and seamless design under the white paper, was done by a single guy under the pseudonym 'satoshi nakamoto'

2. this single pseudonym was a single person, not multiple people logging in under that same name.

3. although that single pseudonym was a single guy. he did have other people (using their own pseudonyms) help him brain storm and code before and after thewhite paper, yet it is his signature concept for putting all the pieces together. so yes people like hal finney, gavin andressen, etc helped him out but the single entity known only as satoshi nakamoto was the brain child of the main concept.

4. it was theymos who made this forum, and was one of the other people interested in helping out in the early days. theymos is not satoshi and satoshi is not theymos.

5. no one knows satoshis true DNA ancestry, or his current location. all we can determine is that by his literary style, he has had a british based education as oppose to a asian or american education.

From what I read(I am new as well)

It sounds like he is a group of people but no one really knows for sure.  I wish I had still had the article but they pointed out his comments often made it sound like he was from Europe sometimes and America the others. 

Anyway, I hope one day we actually get to know who/what they are and dive into his mind to see how he came up with this!

It is not certain if Satoshi Nakamoto is a single person, or a fake name used for a whole team of people. Nobody admits to knowing who Satoshi Nakamoto is.


Probably not, but nobody knows for certain (or at least if anyone does know, they refuse to say so).


Probably not.  If they do, they refuse to say so.

He is CIA/KGB/MI6

I don't think there is any reason will make him show up :p BTC is working just fine

Interesting to think about Satoshi lurking this site. I can't imagine it's much fun most of the time, being as he/she/they probably isn't that interested in petty things such as the price, or the topics that come up again and again. Technical discussion or possibly even altcoins could provide some stimulation.

He/she could be from ancient South America.
They are possibly Mayanaise.

wow , thank you for the precious informations guys
