What email exactly? It would have count if there is a link to back up this claim, I don't want to know who Satoshi Nakamoto really is, what he build can only work if he vanished like he did, creating something decentralized is like making enemy with the Government, you want to stay around if you build something like this OP?

Many people don't care either, not even the investors, as you can see many people use Centralized exchange to store their Bitcoin up till today, they just don't care about what Decentralization is all about, they only want to make money from holding Bitcoin and they are holding it wrongly, even after all the crashes of popular crypto exchanges, they still don't care.

JP Morgan is a big idiot for saying that Satoshi can come back some day and increase the max supply if Bitcoin, this shows how stupid these people are, judging something they have no clue about.

Not so sure;

Nobody knows who Satoshi is and this means nobody knows about any plans Satoshi might have. As far as I understand there are likely about 1 million bitcoins undrr Satoshi control.

If Satoshi is dead and the private keys to the 1 millions bitcoins are gone - fine

If Satoshi is alive and has the private keys - that could cause some issues, just for example if Satoshi starts to suffer from mental health issues and gets funny ideas...

Just saying...

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.

Why do I feel that those who are sitting in the top position of a financial institution are the biggest morons? After reading what the CEO of JP Morgan I am certain that they are one of the biggest clueless morons. I am surprised by how they handle their software development department, I mean with such mentality and understanding they would destroy the developers. This is the reason why these institutions are getting bashed by the normal public or users of that institution.

Bitcoin network runs by Bitcoin miners and Bitcoin full nodes. Satoshi Nakamoto can not shut it down and no single government can shut it down because Bitcoin network is decentralized. To shut it down, it must be a massive global effort from many governments or all governments to shut down the Bitcoin network.

They have to block access to download Bitcoin Core and other Bitcoin wallet softwares too.

What if all the countries block access to the internet or decide to block Bitcoin? If only one country allows Bitcoin and there are a couple of running nodes, Bitcoin will survive. I don't think all the countries will agree to ban or block Bitcoin. Some countries are working on adopting Bitcoin and companies adopting Bitcoin as well. If only El Salvador does not agree to ban Bitcoin, it's enough for Bitcoin to be active. We don't need 15K active nodes. Indeed more blocks make the network stronger. But that does not mean we need them to keep running Bitcoin. The government can't shut down Bitcoin. Or else, they could have done this a decade ago when Bitcoin was slowly growing. They were unable to shut it down back then, now it's not possible anymore.

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.

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

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

And what's the connection between the question in the title and the opening post?

This question has been asked countless of times. It will probably be asked in the next googol years, but it will end up just the same, a pointless guessing game.

The more you raise this question, the more the answer will be irrelevant. At this point, after all those years of investigating who Satoshi Nakamoto is, nobody will take guesses seriously anymore. People would casually guess that Satoshi is Hal Finney, Nick Szabo, Dorian Nakamoto, Elon Musk, Steve Jobs, Jim Carrey, Jo Koy, and so on and so forth. But all this won't matter anymore.

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.

The human curiosity will never be satisfied and for that reason I believe that we'll never get rid of this questions that asks the identity of the founder of the ever glorious bitcoin, come to think of it, what if the reason behind the full anonymity of Satoshi is because he/she/they want it to look like the story of Christianity, we don't really know who's the creator and we just call him God and we are also in doubt if he's in existence to some degree, and while I'm typing this, it does look like Christianity maybe even religion itself because we're trying to prove or discover who's behind the pseudonym but unlike religion, we have a full certainty that Satoshi does exist.

Nobody knows who is or are Satoshi Nakamoto.

The first on chain peer-to-peer transaction is between Satoshi Nakamoto and Hal Finney so there is a conspiracy theory that Hal Finney is Satoshi Nakamoto. However, Hal Finney denied it and he already passed away years ago.

I think after 13 years of speculation about Nakamoto, it's time for all of us to just appreciate Bitcoin for what it is today.

I used to really wonder who was hiding behind that pseudonym, but at this point does it really matter? Bitcoin has taken on a life of its own and impacted so many people regardless of who invented it. The creator was brilliant, no doubt, but Bitcoin has become bigger than any one person now.

No one knows and there has been no new developments in this case, so it's pointless to discuss it. Satoshi is an anonymous individual or even a group of people and there's no strong clues to their identity, and the weak clues like posting schedule or writing style don't mean much. For now assume that we'll never learn Satoshi's true identity.

It’s something you ain’t going to find out today or ever even in cryptospace. You can’t even tell if it’s an individual or some organization but, you could as well keep calm about the pseudo nature of Satoshi Nakamoto and learn about;

what is Bitcoin,
how it’s utilized,
how to remain private about running your wallet and all, and
how not to get scammed as well.

These are of the most importance to you than looking out for;
What could be the real nature of Satoshi.
You would be waiting precious time that could serve you better.
While I would be so bold to tell you that I don’t know whom or what nature Satoshi might be, I would like you to know that, it sure ain’t Craig S. Wright.

Op you would.have backup your story with some kind materials {sources} and as it is just plain saying without links. But that is not withstanding. Bitcoin was created as decentralized digital currency and it was meant nto be as anonymous to everyone and if it is in this nature then the creators of it should also be anonymous. Gavin Andresen is not different from other fabricated stories. Did Satoshi Nakamoto offended anyone when he was creating Bitcoin? No. So why Gavin Andresen would visit him with CIA. Well since the creation of Bitcoin, there different stories around it so this is one of them.

No one knows about the real situation or reason why he's gone and no experts or people still figure out his identity since until know his identity still a mystery. Also no closest proof can point out his identity and if you try to search it here you can read all purr speculation but nothing leads on his real foot tracks.

Searching his identity is really intriguing so if you are still interested to know some of details about it much better if you search more information in google and watch some documentary videos on youtube to have fun searching some leads and interesting informations happened before that you can discover for little back tracking of past activities happened before.

The endless questions of people who are curious with bigotry.

- Who created bitcoin ?- yep, Satoshi

- Who created Satoshi ?- Satoshi's father and mother

- Who created Satoshi's parents - ...

- Who created "earth" - ...

I don't think Gavin really have met with the CIA, It all lies in my humble opinion as there must be some other reason for Satoshi to fly away from the public eye, He might have died, or he might have been under some pressure from authorities that's why he is not coming in front of public, sometimes I wonder, the admins of this forum might be near to Satoshi so they must have know who satoshi is but if the Gavin who worked closely with Satoshi for a period of time did not knew him well then how the admins of this forum would be aware of him.

Well, what's the source of your statement, please provide that for further analysis of it.

Well, to be honest, hehe seems like you've encountered this whole scenario with your eye haha just kidding well, I don't know if all these are rumors or anything else with a bitter reality touch but it doesn't matter at all at least on the current level where Bitcoin is standing in the top assets. Sotoshi is alive or not can be a mystery and will be always a mystery.

From the main o you mean the current admin theymos. I don't know really does he knows or not.
