You will never find the answer to the question of who Satoshi Nakamoto is. The direction and intent of this question proves that Satoshi Nakamoto once lived in this world, as proof that he has left something valuable to humans in various parts of the world, especially those who believe Bitcoin is a profitable asset. Anyone can claim to be Satoshi Nakamoto because Satoshi's real identity is still anonymous. Even though the Real Satoshi revealed his true identity, it is very difficult for Bitcoiners or the general public to believe this claim without real evidence such as showing the original Whitpaper Bitcoin document and its private key.

Are there still people who ask this kind of question ? like don't you have Google in your devices? google is your friend and if what you read about him isn't enough you can go find him yourself and when you do so help me say hi!
Google is very powerful search engine but it can not answer all questions. Because they only have power to collect available information and even a stronger engine like ChatGPT, AI only can summarize information they have.If Satoshi Nakamoto joined and left without trace, there is no available trace for Google, ChatGPT to give us an answer about identity of Satoshi Nakamoto.

I keep wondering why people still wants to know who Satoshi is when they have heard that he disappeared for over a decade now and yet governments can't find him. Is it just an individual that is supposed to know him? Well I don't really care to know him but since I'm using his invention I only got to appreciate his work than ask questions that don't have answers.
I am quite sure that every beginner in Bitcoin market will be very curious who is/ are Satoshi Nakamoto. It is very normal curiosity because if they are responsible with their capital, they will have that reasonable question.This question is only abnormal for people who were already in this market for some years and still need to know identity of Satoshi Nakamoto or they only try to bring this question back to the world, to fud the market.

I've been watching and reading a great deal about the individual who started the whole Bitcoin network. It seems that Satoshi Nakamoto vanished shortly after Gavin Andresen replied with an email to Satoshi that he (Gavin) was going to visit with the CIA. Almost like something out of a Hollywood movie and Satoshi disappeared just after the email? BTC
I have not heard of this part about why Satoshi Nakamoto disappeared from the face of the earth unnoticed. This could be true but I don’t think so either. The decentralised nature of bitcoin will be at cost if Satoshi Nakamoto will still be known today. Many people think his disappearance was the best for bitcoin to thrive till today. With the way bitcoin has moved from inception till now, if he never went offline and left an untraceable clue to himself, he would have been clamped down by now and this technology will not survive till today. Satoshi Nakamoto still remain unknown and that is amongst what is making this technology to maintain its decentralised nature and still alive today. In as much as I want to know the face behind this great technology, if it will cost bitcoin to stop existing or expanding, I would wish to now know him and he should remain anonymous forever.
Did anyone try to reach out to Satoshi via this forum or by email? I mean I get it, he deletes his emails vanishes yada yada yada, but he's already a public person in this forum at least and in the BTC community so why not reach out to Satoshi and send him a public letter? Where is Gavin Andresen? Do you care to chime in as to the reasoning behind not trying to contact him? Or any of you that were here during that particular time period. Or did all of you OG guys end up like the character Smeagol from LOTR? lol What's the reasoning behind not trying to contact him in the earlier days of him vanishing?
Tell me please, why would anyone from the forum contact Satoshi Nakamoto after he went missing? What do you think they should have written to him? Hi, how are you, where did you disappear to? Like this? And you think he'd just reply right away? That's naive.
it matters to know Satoshi because Bitcoin ETF is just the start. if the world shifts to the Bitcoin standard because the big banks are already accepting BTC i think Satoshi coming out and claiming his millions of BTC makes his country the largest shareholder.
BTC is too big to not talk about who Satoshi is. it's like we are being shut up. now compare this to the CBDC which has never been talked about on TV while more than 100 countries are developing them.

If you have spent a little time in the forum, at least in the profile of Satoshi, you will notice that from the beginning he started with covering his tracks; he left no trace or personal contact information that he could be reached with, and that's fine. Whoever he was in communication with for whatever reason in his time here on the forum was via PM, and those messages might have already been wiped out by both parties, which is the best thing to do.
Talking about teaching him in this forum, we can all see that his account has been inactive since his departure, which means even if you send him a PM, he won't get to read them because he won't risk coming online here to get those PMs as his IP might be traced back to him. I will advise you to just pull all these questions popping out of your head aside because the puzzles were correctly calculated right from the beginning to make sure that no one can uncover anything in the future that will lead back to him.
Whoever Satoshi is is not my business, and it's not even something I should be worried about. As long as his creation doesn't have any central control, I will need his identity in case anything goes wrong in the network.
We are all making use of bitcoin, and bitcoin is serving its purpose in the little way that it can, and that's enough for me. Creating that mindset of wondering who Satoshi is and who he could be will just end up keeping me in a dilemma state, which is what I don't need right now.
Many people have tried to solve this mystery, and it all leads to a dead end. Most of us have read countless stories, some of which even lead to a court case, and at the end of the day, there is always no positive result for what or who claims to be him.
Maybe the OP is referring to Gavin will visit the CIA and this Gavin will visit the Council on Foreign Relations

What email exactly?
Maybe the OP is referring to Gavin will visit the CIA and this Gavin will visit the Council on Foreign Relations
We know one thing for sure, he believed in sharing information and that information should be free. He left BTC open source.
Sharing information is one thing, right to privacy another. Don't mix them up. If Satoshi wanted their identity known, they wouldn't have gone to such great lengths to hide it and even with everything available, no one's turned up a solid lead yet.
Sure Bitcoins open-source. Had to be for people to trust it. Without this transparency, it's unlikely that people would have accepted it.
Do I have to believe that was a threat from Gavin to Satoshi @ OP? Indeed I would love to read that mail article and I would appreciate if you can serve us link to it.
Meanwhile with the benefits of doubts, Does it then mean the said Satoshi has been on a run away from the CIAs? Or could it be that after much consultations as investigations from the CIAs, could they may have insisted that he (Satoshi) should remain anonymous maybe the intelligences may have foresighted the potentials and influences of Bitcoin to the societies and how it could expose him to insecurities?
If yes, could it may have been the reason why we also the Bitcoin Brokers have adopted the system of anonymities?
Maybe could be and anyone in relative to Bitcoin whether to buy or sell could also be a one firmed Blockchain relative circles.
What a marvelous analysis. Wow!

Perhaps the wrong perspective makes arguing about issues that really don't make much sense, many funny problems in life are also discussed with the logic of curiosity. To put it simply, we are all part of Satoshi, and Satoshi is us.
Maybe that yes and that could be why @bluebit25 logically in a structuring union uttered that We are all Satoshi and so Satoshi is also us.What a marvelous analysis. Wow!

Satoshi Nakamoto is the man behind Bitcoin. The master minder of financial crisis solution. A tech guru, the financial saviour. The man that made millions of poor people to be rich. And also an anonymous or abstract like air. You can feel his presence but can't see see or touch him.

Satoshi Nakamoto made the best decision by going anonymous and disappearing into the thin air. If not for those decisions, the events of SEC and Feds generally will have targeted him and made him to shut down the network he built. We have to admit that he remains a legend in his choice of approach towards achieving Bitcoin network and currency even though he has to be gone forever
Can Satoshi shut down bitcoin? Although he is its creator, I think he does not have enough authority to shut down bitcoin. Bitcoin is owned by the entire community and shutting it down requires consensus from everyone. So even if Satoshi existed, the government, FBI, and CIA would not be able to change bitcoin. It's good for him that he's anonymous, otherwise he'd be accused of creating bitcoin, a decentralized currency that makes it very difficult for governments to control it.
Nobody seems to have a good understanding of who Satoshi is. The CEO of JP Morgan basically says that Satoshi might come back and increase the supply of bitcoin. Basically he doesn’t understand that even if he did come back, he wouldn’t be able to increase the supply.
Only way to do that would be to rewrite the code and have a hard fork which no one would run since it would cause chaos pretty much. This happened in the past with the other bitcoin fork coins but the original is the one with the most work and valid chain.
There are somethings that there are never going to be an answer to it. And one of those things is Satoshi Nakamoto, even if someone comes up today and say I'm Satoshi Nakamoto nobody is going to believe him. Bitcoin is now bigger than whoever created it and it has now become a world wide something which no one can lay a claim to it. The best answer to who is Satoshi Nakamoto will be Bitcoin!! Whenever anyone ask who is Satoshi Nakamoto people should answer Bitcoin. Only way to do that would be to rewrite the code and have a hard fork which no one would run since it would cause chaos pretty much. This happened in the past with the other bitcoin fork coins but the original is the one with the most work and valid chain.
I think it's the mystery that will stay unsolved forever. He did everything to hide himself.
But indeed he has gift us with the biggest digital asset of the time. we all seeing many rumours like many are pretended that they have met stoshi nakomata i was watching such kind of video on social media a person was pretended to be stoshi nakomata.
Thus, this is the fact this mystery remain mystery but before going away he have gifted world with the biggest digital asset.
It seems that Satoshi Nakamoto vanished shortly after Gavin Andresen replied with an email to Satoshi that he (Gavin) was going to visit with the CIA.
He surely didn't appreciate the invitation to the NSA, but I doubt that was the reason of his departure. In case you didn't know, that was their last conversation: http://gavinandresen.ninja/eleven-years-ago-today. Only way to do that would be to rewrite the code and have a hard fork which no one would run since it would cause chaos pretty much.
Hardforking creates an altcoin. Even if the overwhelming majority of the Bitcoin userbase switched to that hypothetical hardfork, it wouldn't really be Bitcoin. 
We all know that Satoshi is the founder of bitcoin and since when bitcoin was created Satoshi have been anonymous that nobody can even give details about his whereabout. Some people who have tried to know who Satoshi is, the more they the more they confuse and ended up meeting people who are disguising to be Satoshi. Their is no need to even know who Satoshi is, Satoshi has given us bitcoin which we can tell the goodness of bitcoin, we just need to focus on bitcoin to enjoy the profit in it than trying to figure out who Satoshi is and at the end we will not still know who Satoshi is.

No one really knows who Satoshi Nakamoto is and I can even bet that his own parents never knew that Satoshi Nakamoto had the great work he had created. This has been asked thousands of times on forums and perhaps there is always no accurate answer regarding who is he with? If today someone with a name like that still existed, perhaps he would be the most sought after man in the whole world and what's even more amazing is that his identity has never been spread to the public under a pseudonym or his real name. Regarding the email that Gavin Andresen sent, there is no representation that Satoshi Nakamoto disappeared because he talked about visiting the CIA.In fact if you look at the sophistication of technology, it is not impossible that the name could be revealed because the CIA has quite sophisticated tools in investigating cases that have occurred. But in fact it can never be proven who the owner of the Bitcoin work is and for me that's a little strange if you understand what I want to convey.
I think it's the mystery that will stay unsolved forever. He did everything to hide himself.
We know that Satoshi was the founder of Bitcoins. He didn’t want the credits later on and still no one has known the real identity of him. He willingly not revealing it or unable to prove if he/she is Satoshi or not still not known to many of us. We should not complain I would say about his identity, rather we should enjoy his amazing creation and make profits from it.

That made me laugh a little, JP Morgan is a true believer of Satoshi Nakamoto, like Jesus Christ, he will rise again. I don't know how will Satoshi even do that kind of thing, there's no way that you can sneak past the validators and create a new batch of bitcoins to be mined and forks have happened before as you've said and what happened to those forks, they're pretty much abandoned. I do believe that Satoshi is someone that's read about the financial institutions and saw that there's a lot of things that's needed to be done to dismantle the exploitative system and he's probably someone that won't back down and so he created bitcoin. @Keawe said it best, it wouldn't matter if he would sell his bitcoins, whatever's going to happen when Satoshi dumps that millions of bitcoin is something that the market can bounce back, this project of Satoshi already has it's own life and he's not going to be able to terminate it no matter. Only way to do that would be to rewrite the code and have a hard fork which no one would run since it would cause chaos pretty much. This happened in the past with the other bitcoin fork coins but the original is the one with the most work and valid chain.
