Topic: Who is Satoshi Nakamoto? - page 56. (Read 143064 times)
I think Satoshi Nakamoto is a pseudonym of a group of large investors who just decided to turn the world economy around.
Although we do not know who is behind this name, we know what he (or she) did. Satoshi Nakamoto invented the Bitcoin protocol, publishing it via a mailing list in November 2008.
Since this thread is mostly just new users trying to bump up their post count, I thought I would post some useless thoughts on the matter of who Satoshi might be without sounding all tin-foil-hatish.
Apparently, most of the people that worked with Satoshi are pretty confident he was one person. His code was not written in a way that a team would have developed it. And he used reverse polish notation which seems more like something someone older with a math background would use. Save for the guy who comments on this post and says he uses it all the time in 2018. Pedantic.
Satoshi also said later in the Bitcoin project that Tor 0.2 alpha was coming out soon, and he would provide instructions on how to use it. He may have followed along with the TOR development and had some ideas on how to integrate it with Bitcoin. But I found it interesting that he knew how to use it before 0.2 alpha and was going to help people with it.
That got me to thinking. Perhaps Satoshi was one of the TOR guys. Maybe not one of the main guys, but an underling that worked on the math side. At the time Tor was funded by DARPA and development was going on pretty much at the same time. They have "some" similarities with the nodes, encryption, P2P concepts that Satoshi employed. So do many other P2P tools, I realize and true, there is no blockchain with Tor. So maybe not.
But if we stretch our imagination here, I don't think this was the work of the entire TOR team at DARPA because Satoshi didn't seem really concerned about privacy so much as just trying to free us from the banking system. Which makes me think he could have been one of the team members that was big into the math side of what was going on, but less on the privacy side. I can imagine while sitting in meeting rooms while discussing the best way to communicate with TOR nodes and share P2P information while making it encrypted, that ideas can spring to mind on how to leverage similar concepts to do something different and outside the scope of the current project. And Satoshi taught himself to do some coding and put together Bitcoin with the knowledge he had working on similar projects such as TOR.
As Satoshi eventually left the Bitcoin project with Gavin, he said had moved on to other things, and that the Bitcoin project was in good hands. I think given that TOR was still early, his "other things" were exactly that. TOR. Again, as a team member. Not the project lead or anything.
That would also explain why the coins haven't been touched. Whoever did it was on DARPA's dime at the time. Whatever knowledge or tools being used were funded by them, and Satoshi probably didn't want anyone to trace it back to him and the TOR project. Not to mention, there are a lot of hands in that pot. The Government, the Electronic Frontier Foundation, as well as the TOR organization as it exists now, and the various members that rotated through it. Whoever has the keys would probably not end up with the money, it would get owned by the Fed and a bunch of lawyers maybe. It would also create some public static if it was found out that it was DARPA funded. And/Or sanctioned by the Government to pay dissidents or spies, etc. Whatever conspiracy theorists want to imagine.
We'll never really know unless Satoshi himself comes out and proves it. But I do think it is interesting that these two projects were lining up at the same time Bitcoin and TOR and that Satoshi had a hand in one, and strong enough knowledge in the other to teach people how to use it at an early Alpha state.

Wow dude, that was an awesome post.
To be honest that was one of the few posts that was worth reading in this thread.
The majority is just speculations and opinions without some real data behind it.
there's been a lot of speculation who satoshi nakamoto is. what's for sure is that he or she they is the inventor of bitcoin etc. the person who published the original bitcoin paper and created the first blockchain of the bitcoin blockchain. if satoshi traded his bitcoin for cash, it would also be absurdly rich. i dont know who is satoshi is. but even the speculations about his identity are well worth reading. based on what i saw in the movie satoshi is the group or team created the bitcoin it cannot done by one person but who group will work success the bitcoin is now famous.
Satoshi actively participated in the bitcoin community and collaborated with them to change the underlying bitcoin Protocol. Two years later, the mysterious developer of the first cryptocurrency handed over the reins to Gavin Andresen and disappeared from the Bitcoin project. Then, in the spring of 2011, Nakamoto came back to leave a final message, saying that he was" working on other projects "and that Bitcoin is now"in the hands of Gavin and the entire community." This was the last thing the world heard from the secret creators of Bitcoin.
Glad to hear that at least he is fine and that he is just creating another project for us, I am really amaze what he is doing in the entire world, if there is one hero to be awarded right now I would really recommend him for doing such a big innovation in entire world.
perhaps the mystery behind his identity helps keep society curious about bitcoin.
To my knowledge he is the creator of bitcoin. That's what I hear from the bitcoin community. But I do not know for sure, obviously bitcoin has helped my financial problems. So I do not have to question who he is.
For a wise person in Satoshi Who created Bitcoin for that Also help people who are strong The need to live.
For me it's genious, who created the best currency ever! I really don't care who is Satoshi, i can be man, woman, group of people , the only one thing that matter is bitcoin that we already have.
i dont know who is he but i think he is relative in bitcoin.
CIA

Satoshi Nakamoto is the brain behind Bitcoin, though his identity is hidden which i feel is not necessary, he has done a great job by innovating Bitcoin
I believe he is Genius
Satoshi Nakamoto is the inventor of Bitcoin but nobody know him. His using name Satoshi Nakamoto is fake , he didn't use his original name for security purpose because there are many can ban bitcoin so here some issues pf security.
If that's even his name. Just read the bitcoin wiki on him and I'm amazed. Nobody knows him.
Long time passed since he last posted in here. Why? "Busy"? I don't think so. He was active when bitcoin needed support but since the slashdot...
Also, it seems has knowledge in many areas, especially economy. He doesn't act like the average human. Not taking advantage out of his creation, leaving without telling anything. Is he even a single person or a group?
How can someone create something so great and not stepping out to get the credit?

for me satoshi nakamoto he is the person who developed bitcoin and created and deployed bitcoin's original reference implementation. And as of he is still mystery and unknown person.
We know who is Satoshi Nakamoto the day he chooses to reveal himself (if he still alive) until that happens
Satoshi said to tell you all: I Am Negen
