(though I doubt we'd have any new sort of "proof" of who Satoshi is in the first place lol so the thread might just be dead to start with)

That's precisely the problem.  With the absence of any fresh, legitimate, substantiated information, just about every topic on the subject is baseless speculation.  Hardly worthy of discussion.  And yet, queue the dozens of tedious, repetitive nonsense threads about it anyway.  And now people asking for an entire subforum dedicated to more of the same?  I despair.  

//EDIT:

Prime example.  Just look at this shit.  Mindless, low-quality crap.

I'd rather see most new topics about satoshi's identity marked as 'low quality' and either locked or nuked, because they are completely redundant.  A new subforum would only encourage more posting of sub-par topics and shitposts.  The majority of them don't contain any worthwhile insights.


A Self-moderated thread by a mod/admin or by a reputable forum participant is probably the way to go here. Just so we have an active non-trash thread that filters out all the old redundant stuff. (though I doubt we'd have any new sort of "proof" of who Satoshi is in the first place lol so the thread might just be dead to start with)

We should have a "who is satoshi" subforum, since it comes up so often.
According to me, "should" a word that contains emphasis. It's the same as the word "need".

Example:
Code:
you should to leave the house.
you need to leave the house.
or
Code:
you should to call the police.
you need to call the police.

You better find another idea that is more useful.

What we really need is more forum members who will report such threads to the moderators and prevent pointless discussions, at least in the Bitcoin discussion. As for those who claim to be Satoshi, I already wrote that I would give them 24 hours to prove it, and if they fail to do so, they would be permanently banned. Freedom of speech has nothing to do with misleading someone into thinking you are someone you are not.

If you are really into it that kind, just make a subreddit in Reddit. You're just going to fill in the blanks on the fields needed to start such subs.
It is at least the thing that could meet your needs if you're really into it. Invite your friends to it so you could discuss 'who is satoshi' and all those conspiracy theories you could think of.

Otherwise, there's not much option you have since that is simply just a megathread topic like mk4 mentioned.

Unofficially, we have this one: I gathered every Satoshi Nakamoto thread.

If you see any new topics about this, please leave a link to that topic, the OP might consider to update it.

I don't see reason to have another collective topic about that or a new sub-forum / child-board (more accurately) for that.


My suggestion, if you want, you can classify collective topics into different categories such as real identity, satoshi's bitcoins, satoshi's opinion, etc.

Look at Beginners & Help Encyclopedia for more ideas. By the approach, you can rename the topic of BlackHatCoiner to "Satoshi Nakamoto-related Encylopedia"

Unnecessary. A single megathread would do.

Also, there are far better ways of spending time than hunting for Satoshi. Finding who he/she/they is/are won't do us any good in the first place (assuming we actually find out in the end).

OP, I can probably take the liberty and speak for Theymos here and tell you to just forget it, there's not going to be any new section for that question.  It's a thread topic, not something that deserves a whole section devoted to it, which would most likely turn into an offshoot of Politics & Society with conspiracy theories running rampant.

Weren't the last two sections added to the forum Serious Discussion and Ivory Tower (not including new local boards)?  That was years ago, and last I checked those weren't even very popular with the group that they were intended for.  My point is that I don't think Theymos is planning on adding any more new sections unless some topic is so hot that it absolutely cries out for its own.

Many people keep creating thread about Satoshi while Satoshi himself doesn't want to expose his own personal information to public, so there's no reason for theymos to create sub forum about Satoshi. This is similar like many newbie keep creating merit fishing thread about merit or forum rule on Beginner & Help section, do we need to create sub forum specific for useless discussion? Nope, it's will lead become a spam festival.

Why do you think such a subforum would be beneficial? It would be a bad idea in my opinion. There are already some good threads that you can check out if you want to read a bit more about Satoshi. Just follow the white rabbit.

A "who is Satoshi"?
Look, the beauty of cryptography is decentralization. Satoshi himself, themselves, herself, itself didn't wanna be known; this reasons are partly know to deep Bitcoin researchers. .....and I said 'PARTLY'. AFAIK, there are some personal reasons to which he choosed setting up the system like what we have now; for sure, it's primarily -- the most important aspect in ensuring utmost security and surveillance -- Pseudonymity.
So I'll say a NO to that appraisal. I would really love that in place but, we'll have other peeps coming down here just to acquire a knowledge behind the whole, BIG MYSTERY -- pseudonymity. That ofcourse would need Satoshi himself to be present which, is somewhat impossible.

It is just human nature to have a healthy curiosity about the things around us, and while this curiosity is often satisfied, sometimes it is not. That is just the way life works, and speculating on Satoshi Nakamoto isn't any different in that regard. It is true, there are a lot of threads like this. So why do you think such a sub-forum is needed? You see, there is no point in beating around the bush, Satoshi can prove who he is by signing an arbitrary message with his private key. But no one will be able to do it, and our conversation will be fruitless. Issues like this serve only to divide the community, and are not really relevant to development or issues of bitcoin at large. If you want to discuss Satoshi, just do so in general discussion. There are also some good threads you can check out if you want to read a bit more.

You want theymos to create a subforum where spammers who are claiming to be Satoshi will concentrate and continue their spam and troll. People like bitcoinmosses and digital monk will be happy with your suggestions.

But thinking about your idea. Will Satoshi be happy with theymos if he finds out that theymos is the one championing the movement to unanonymize him in the forum he also created. Discovering who Satoshi is is not what we do here. We are all Satoshis.

Just like this one, right? The number of kinda threads you are talking isn't that huge in compare to other topics (e.g. NFT subforum topic that has been suggested more often before, but that's not the case now) that needs to have its subforum. But for this one? Nope. It's better to stick on bitcoin discussion.

Why do you think that such subforum is needed? We all know that Craig Wright is Satoshi. Ok, now seriously, this question appears on Bitcointalk sometimes, but such board isn't needed at all. You think that's Robert Tappan Morris, other people have different predictions. But what's the point of it when nobody won't be able to prove that they're right. It's just pointless speculation.

what for? Didn't you know, Craig Wright is the real Satoshi Nakamoto and everyone who claims that they are Satoshi is nothing but an impostor? I've seen a lot of Satoshi Nakamoto wannabes who have come here in the forum, but I know CSW is the one and only Satoshi Nakamoto.

anyway, joking aside, I know wanting to find out who Satoshi is can be exciting but the dude wants to be left alone/stay anonymous and we should give him that as a form of respect for what he created.
