I personally think he died.

Realistically, nobody has the willpower to not dump their 1 million bitcoins when BTC reaches $20,000 each.

He would have had a net worth of $20 billion.

I don't care if you want to reshape the world or whatnot, $20 billion buys out the morals of almost anybody. He must be dead.

He wouldn't be able to cash out more than a fraction of his purported stash without crashing the markets, and I can't imagine the markets reacting positively if it was clear the creator of Bitcoin himself wants to sell as much as possible at ATH. If he's alive and still has the private keys he's probably financially comfortable enough not to care about having more money.

Satoshi theory? I don't really care at all if he/she's still alive or dead.

To be honest, I am proud of him because I really like his idea, which is the BTC, and it makes me admire him for inventing something that will change the lives of others. And I don't know if he's dead, people are still using his own invention, and with that, the advancement of our technologies will continue and won't meet an end.

What's my reason? I respect his decision for being anonymous from the start so obviously he wants to hide his identity or other personal things to the public, therefore, we shouldn't be bothered at all about him.

He's probably still alive since Bitcoin is not that old. This topic would make more sense 15 years from now. He's probably still doing whatever he can to keep his identity hidden.
Almost 10 years? Even at the 1st anniversary of bitcoin, there's a possibility that he might die. No one's immortal here.

I think satoshi is still alive, maybe he was hiding himself for his safety, he might be worry for his family that is why he was hiding. Or maybe he dont wanted to be celebrity and he maybe wanted to live a life in a normal way of living this is only my opinion because i dont really know where satoshi is.
No one really knows on where satoshi is, neither he's still alive or dead.Its just normal to think that he would definitely hide himself in the public yet we know on how his creation been a threat specially into the government.

We cant really remove on our mind the possibility of or risking his life and his loved one if he do tend to go out in public and it wont be a surprise if he do just roaming around anonymously even into this forum which he had created. No one knows.

Important thing here is that we are thankful that he do create up this tech which do benefit the many not only on actual usage but also on money making oportunity.

It doesn't really matter, there's nothing good that could happen to him if he's alive. Who except for the biggest of extroverts would enjoy the attention Satoshi would undoubtedly be showered with? If he cared about being anonymous back then, he must not care less about it now.

As to why he never touched the dormant coins (assuming they were actually mined by him and he still retains access to the relevant private keys), it might be that he's well-off enough not to care too much about their value. He had the time and perseverance to work on Bitcoin before and during the financial crisis, not the case for many people in much of the world back then.

What is your Satoshi theory?

Just wondering what everyone's thoughts are on Satoshi Nakamoto.

If he's not with us today, I'm sure he'd be appalled with the amount of money being printed by governments/central banks.

One of his legendary quotes are:

"If you don’t believe it or don’t get it, I don’t have the time to try to convince you, sorry."

Is he deceased? Did he pass away from Cancer or some other grave illness?
The theory that he died is a popular one because it is a way to explain his sudden disappearance, there are also those that believe that satoshi was not a single person and in fact was composed of a team of experts since they cannot imagine how a person could create something like bitcoin on their own unless he was a genius, however I personally believe that he is alive and well and that satoshi was not composed of a team of people and was a single individual, otherwise it would have been really difficult for the identity of all of those people to still remain hidden 10 years after the creation of bitcoin with that many people.

Everyone knows Craig is Satoshi.
Everyone?

Stop joking man.
rofl. Craig? really? isn't he the one who is taking shit with bitcoin? Although he is Computer Scientist never I imagine that he is going to be the creator of it. Most of people here disregarded his claims coz no one is really believing to him, but why? simply because if he does then he should be promoting it and not spreading negativity about it. Basic logic will analyze.
I don't want to think that he's already dead. Just like the opinion of others, he left bitcoin and probably moving on to another project with the same vision.
Yeah me too, I want to think that he is alive and is smiling because of what he created but man he is not having a glimpse on the media even a anonymous message for us all. I think what Satoshi's message is the bitcoin itself.

Satoshi, whoever or whatever is had a clear intent to disappear even when it all started. Satoshi placed every of it's move very carefully remaining anonymous and clearing any track it would lead to him/her/it. There could be a few old bitcoin developers that may have some faint idea about what satoshi is or where is it from but most of them clearly don't know about satoshi.

Satoshi can be alive or dead, no one knows the reason to this question but what matters the most is the value that he gave us in life. He created a thing that separates us from the rest of the world as they are currently bound under the system and bitcoin is the freedom which they are looking for.

I believe that he is enjoying his life and watching the world grow his brain child and hoping for a better future.

The legendary creator of the bitcoin today has a useful life because his creation becomes one of the most successful into the world of technology and innovation and this is quite good because there is a legacy he leaves before does not take too much responsibility to his creation but now it is a massive problem because the identity still does not concrete and also he has the most profitable coin because he has a lot of bitcoin hold and this is a good thing too to manipulate the market proce even he does not control the whole bitcoin.w

Its not a person but a collective of people who all worked on the project. They used Satoshi Nakamoto as a pseudonym due to the perceived threat of govt retaliation


or its just your neighbor  Wink

Who said that to you? Where is your proof?
There is a saying in my culture: There is no secret that two people know. If Satoshi were pseudonym used for a community, as you said, definitely one or a few people would have disclosed this secret so far. However, I cannot tell you exactly about Satoshi's identity. Perhaps as you really say, a community can be a group.

I am starting to have a feeling that Satoshi is no longer alive. His stash is worth a few billion USD now. If he was alive, then he could have claimed it. Even if he has lost his private key, there are multiple alternate options available for him to prove that he is the creator of Bitcoin. It has been 11 years since he first mined Bitcoin. For almost 10 years now, we haven't heard anything from him. I guess he is no longer alive.. but that said, I don't think that either Craig Wright, or Dave Kleiman has anything to do with Satoshi.

We can't actually tell but there is a possibility that Satoshi is still alive and waiting for the right time to reveal his or their real identity. He or their group is still hiding without any trace, but if he or they doesn't want to actually reveal their identity, we can just let them enjoy their precious life.


We can't really know, I'll stick with what I think his current state right now, he is dead, coz if he really ain't then he should have sold his bitcoin way back 2017. There is a high chance that Hal is Satoshi since he was the first ever to receive a bitcoin after it was created, and I can't contain to myself that if you are the creator of one thing then you should test it on your own, so there's Hal. And I don't think Satoshi would be too clever if he does not know this guy. Perhaps, we don't need that much information for the creator of bitcoin.

It’s that time of the year where someone has to raise this question, and after all the debates that will take place no one will know for sure what happened to him and neither will we agree on one common answer. Furthermore i don’t have much of a theory because each time I read they have found him, it only leads to disappointment as was the case when I believed that Dorian Nakamoto was satoshi but it turned out to be a false positive.

Now, learn something from me too.
My saying - "Good Souls Never Die!"
I would never believe that Satoshi has left us all in vain. One who loves anonymity should never reveal and keep up the good work being done by his end without shouting out for trying to take credits for the success of their project and I bet Satoshi is calm enough to stay away from all this drama and remain silent forever while doing his job that he started with the invention of BTC.

There's a high possibility of the said Satoshi to be with us here on the forum and not otherwise. Many thought of Satoshi to be dead after the launched of the project Bitcoin, although these individuals still exist among us and not just drawing a conclusion that they're not with us. So, my theory still stand that, these group still live with us even right in this forum, they always read comments about this issue of Satoshi alive or dead.
