He/She is actually a smart guy, the best he did was disappear in the shadows, there will be a lot of criticism on his figure and a lot of pressure, also remain bitcoin decentralized requieres that its founder remain silent, he did great.
sure he is enjoying a great life, maybe his relatives and friends doesnt even known how much he is involved in bitcoin. Maybe he doesnt even owns a Lambo. Maybe he talks in this forum, hidding, smiling.

While at work today, I've been thinking about who Satoshi Nakamoto could be and why would he keep his identity a secret?

I've thought of three possibilities for keeping his name secret.

1) He is someone who doesn't want to be in the spotlight, because he enjoys his anonymity.
2) His actual identity could ruin the reputation of Bitcoin.
3) Satoshi is a showman and did this to build up suspense for his grand entrance.



By revealing his identity he puts himself at a great risk, the US government may bring money laundering charges and even finance of terrorism to his backdoor,i think its a very wise move by him hiding under the shadow and not revealing his identity.
Exactly it's embêter for him/her to remain anonymous because as bien coin gains more and more influence he/she would become more and more of a target by autorithies.

Have you seen the vitriolic trolling that Vitalik Buterin receives?

There's your answer.

To be fair, that would apply to developers in the "limelight" too.

I think he does not want everyone to know him and protect himself from possible attacks from ill-wishers. This is an anonymous currency and the creator also wants to remain anonymous.

It's of less important to know who invented cell phone rather than appreciating the benefits we receive from such invention and that's true for bitcoin and satoshi nakamoto too. Even if he's alive and if he could come up with the solution to the crisis or problems bitcoin is undergoing right now that would be much desirable and appreciated than just knowing who he is, where he is, whether he's alive or not etc so better enjoy the benefits of bitcoin and not waste your time in trying to find out who satoshi nakamoto is.

In my own opinion I think Satoshi Nakamoto is

1. Doesn't really exist at all and developers of Bitcoin just make up 'Satoshi Nakamoto' as the mastermind of it.
2. If he really does exist maybe he just really patronizing the essence of anonymity same for his invention and his presence.

That is the best only idea that I can think of.
sure, Satoshi Nakamoto is a completely anonymous person, no one knows how many Bitcoins he is and where he lives. What people in the world will not have the answer as this is just the name of the impostor and the familiar name when entering the Bitcoin market.

He hides because he have a great amount of bitcoin and he do not want to give some to you. Grin  Well to be serious he is really kind of mysterious and just like any one here we want to see how he looks like.  Well based on his name he is a Japanese, but the question is, is he really a japanese or it is his pseudonym.  But one thing is for sure, he is such brilliant and very intellect.  He must be the master of the programmers as he was able to come out with a great invention of all time.  I want to know also how much bitcoin does he have.

I can't sure Satoshi Nakamoto have exist or not, but in history when Bitcointalk Forum still new and begin to become a biggest forum cryptocurrency as now, Satoshi had support and developing Bitcoin in a period of time on Bitcointalk

Satoshi Nakamoto is the creator of bitcoin and he really enjoys his anonymity. I have read one article stating that he sometimes appears on the contributors name in some website. Like this

No body know about who is Satoshi Nakamoto, there are information that Craig Wright is Satoshi Nakamoto but many people don't believe in him, too many speculation about who is Satoshi Nakamoto, he hide in the shadows in my opinions is for protect his life and of course his whealty in bitcoins, if he show his identity will be dangerous for his bitcoins and the whealty in bitcoins.

Lets say Im satoshi  then i would definitely do the same thing too which i would really not let myself to go on public or reveal my true identity knowing that you are really on a great danger there are lots of people,institutions would really come after you because of your invention. I would hide for some time and watching my creation to be more succesful that can able to help humankind regarding on payment innovation and earning opportunities.

Never knew that there were other cryptocurrencies before bitcoin. I will have to take a closer look into that. Bitcoin was the first successful one it seems.

Satoshi being AI seems doubtful, but it is an interesting idea and fun to think about.

I didn't know he had posted on the forum either. I'll have to check it out.


For those wondering why I care, it is simply curiosity. I don't consider wonder a bad thing. Also, I am very good at my job. It is very mundane at times and thought is great for my entertainment. Is it really a waste of time to question things we will never know the answer to? With that logic we'd never wonder about religion, the meaning of life, if aliens exist, how far the universe goes, or why I view life from my perspective and not somebody else's. I feel it is in my human nature to dwell on such things. Some of you may not be curious, but I think a lot of people, like me, do.

Believe it or not, bitcoin wasn't the first cryptocurrency. Not even a second. If you did some research about previous echash systems creators you would notice a correlation between a real person and a lawsuit against him. That would be a one more reason.
