Nobody knows. But here's my guess: Satoshi was a worker at either the CIA or the NSA.

Why is this plausible? Here are the factors:

1. Both of these organizations have workers who would have the technical expertise that Satoshi demonstrated.

2. They both would have workers who would also know tradecraft well enough to remain anonymous (which is not easy when so many are looking for you).

3. A project like Bitcoin could have been started as an experiment to create a honeypot for money traffickers, etc., and the experiment "got out of hand" and became very popular. And what would you do if you were this worker? Basically what Satoshi did: bail out and let the public sector take over the project.

4. Only the CIA/NSA could walk away from $60 billion, chalking it up to the cost of doing business (e.g. keeping their secret capabilities secret).

5. The only other plausible explanation is that Satoshi was just some individual who died and left no trace of who he was--which has all kinds of practical problems with it (e.g. why wouldn't somebody around him figure it out).

I realize this is just a theory, but I think my theory is better than all of the other theories Smiley.

Today I was thinking about the articles on exposing Satoshi. But you know what - I think we will never know who he was. The thing is that only a person who thinks very big and at the same time outside the box could have come up with the blockchain.
Such an idea could have come from someone whose priority is not making money, but an attempt to launch a mechanism for changing the world order by creating new economic rules. And he succeeded. And we are used to those who reveal their identity at the end, but I am sure that the person whose qualities I described above will never come out of the shadows.
He simply does not need it.

Blackberry?? Satoshi being a Canadian cybersecurity expert working for RIM would make a lot of sense imo.
1. Those are just some ads, added by SourceForge. Nothing special. Free e-mail boxes just contained ads in the past, and it is normal. To remove them, you need to use some paid version.
2. Satoshi used Japanese version of Windows XP, it is very unlikely, that he was "a Canadian cybersecurity expert".

Satoshi Nakamoto is clearly a time-traveling alien who invented Bitcoin to fund his intergalactic pizza cravings!
Damn, and so the thread was bumped and reborn  Roll Eyes
@around78, whoa, that's a brilliant one, alien indeed, but this must be a good alien that put the interest of the earth first, he/they/it deserves the best respect... Cool

@FortuneFollower, this thread is even one of those threads that shouldn't go extinct if I were a moderator, topics like this should always be the first to see for people's consumption and avoid repetition. You hardly see the thread with that huge number of pages, not to mention that it's linked to the main Bitcoin man.

I was reading through the Satoshi-Sirius emails and this signature from Satoshi caught my attention.

From email #41:

Satoshi Nakamoto is the pseudonymous creator of Bitcoin, and their true identity remains unknown. Despite speculation, no one has definitively proven to be Nakamoto, making it one of the most significant mysteries in the cryptocurrency world.

I’m Satoshi Nakamoto. I need help now. If you like me, just give me some money in this account:3CuvqzbuYbYGPAGAhaeFZaZeKZcThmqraK.
You need money and you are Satoshi Nakamoto?
This is a funny excuse because Satoshi is rich enough to feed everyone in this community so I don't understand why you claimed to be him and still begging for funds. This is unusual and I think you need to use another approach that is different from this to ask for support rather than claiming to be who you are not. This is one of the funniest joke but I understand when you aspire to be Satoshi.

That's Satoshi's original email concerning Bitcoin. Notice the two spaces after each full stop.

Code:
If you can keep a node running that accepts incoming connections,
you'll really be helping the network a lot.  Port 8333 on your
firewall needs to be open to receive incoming connections. The software is still alpha and experimental.  There's no guarantee
the system's state won't have to be restarted at some point if it
becomes necessary, although I've done everything I can to build in
extensibility and versioning.


No one knows because Satoshi Nakamoto is an anonymous Contributor as Bitcoin chose to remain anonymous, only that what he has attempted is another way to build a decentralized money and fund system without a central unit. No one knows @Vampobit.

In my opinion as we all know Satoshi Nakamoto is the pseudonymous person or group of people who created Bitcoin and authored its white paper. The true identity of Satoshi Nakamoto remains unknown, and it has been a subject of much speculation and curiosity in the cryptocurrency community. The name is widely believed to be a pseudonym, and the individual or group behind it has chosen to remain anonymous. And I think it is going to remain this way for as long as.

Whoever he is, I think he is a great man or someone great
Intelligent community. Cool

And it is good for the world not to know his or her identity.
In fact Satoshi Nakamoto or the original Bitcoin founder will never reveal his identity.

Although some people and large number of Bitcoin owners want to identify or reveal themselves as Satoshi Nakamoto which is completely false and in my opinion this is a trap to find the real Satoshi. Huh

I don't think that will ever be possible!!!!

I'd argue it wouldn't necessarily even mean that.  I habitually use two spaces after each sentence and PCs were relatively common in my youth.  Moreso than typewriters in any case.  I've certainly never used a typewriter for anything other than screwing around for the sheer novelty of it.

It may imply, as happened with me, that their English teacher may have been of an age where they were taught to type in that fashion and that's simply the habit they passed on to all their pupils.  Never underestimate the power of indoctrination.  

Two spaces is not strong evidence.

It indicates that Satoshi probably trained on a physical type-writer prior to digital processing, where double-spacing was common. But we could already guess that Satoshi isn't young any more. https://www.cultofpedagogy.com/two-spaces-after-period/

I personally think that his double-spaces means that he resided in the American West, where double spaces held on culturally for longer than in other parts of the world, and which matches several of his other behaviors.

I agree with both of you! If "It indicates that Satoshi probably trained on a physical type-writer prior to digital processing" is true, then how come all of the people in the mailing list used 2 spaces ?

What are we (or am I) missing here?
a. Could they be using a typing software that automatically adds two spaces after each full stop ?
b. Could this be a sign that they all belong to the same team that invented bitcoin ? I doubt it, since I can't be the one to point that out. I am too silly.
