Satoshi is the one who laid the foundation for such a technology. For a long he was found active in the forum, and in a short he was missing and only very few knew his identity. Several years has passed and as none is sure of the identity, people used to mention top developers as Satoshi.

I am sure that nobody knew his identity not even Gavin Andresen.There is thing called privacy and he really wanted that and so is the reason he hid his identity and he really wanted the focus to be on the coin rather than speculating about the genious of the inventor and he might have thought that mystery would certainly hype his invention .

Heres a few interesting things about Gavin Andresen. Born Gavin Bell. Started the first BTC faucet. Worked closly with Satoshi, maybe the closest Wink

. Without warning his name and contact information replaces Satoshis' on the Bitcoin.org website.

I think he is the person who wants everyone to be equal, but he hides his identity so that he is not found and punished.

Some people says its one person others say it were a group of people, but the identity remain unknow were best to crypto world, at this stage our creator would be into the jail since several people does use bitcoin for black market. Bitcoin has growed a lot since borned, in fact its changing the world concept about management, decentralized currencie without countries manipulation has proven already its value.

I'm guessing that this thread was created and periodically bumped by a user having sockpuppets who maintain sig campaigns. How close am I?

Back on-topic, my best guess is that James Simons is behind the SN nym.

Why did Satoshi hide his identity? Has anyone seen Satoshi in real life?
Is Satoshi one person? Or is it a community?

My best guess is he hid his identity for security purposes. Governments, banks or even common criminal thieves could try to attack his life, steal his money or even kill him. It would be too dangerous to reveal his identity.

Another good reason, maybe, is that he didn't want to be under the spotlight. He liked to create a "stand-alone" currency, without the need of a leader, in the true spirit of decentralization. This way all the people's attention is on Bitcoin and not on its creator.

Bitcoin is an anonymous currency and I think that its creator also wanted to remain anonymous in order to avoid possible negative from competitors and those who do not like bitcoin.

Yes it could be possible but to your claim that he hides his identity to avoid possible negative from people who does not like bitcoin. It is impossible that someone will hate it without any good reason. Those who hate bitcoin are those who did not understand it and were not able to earn any income from it.

Maybe satoshi just wanted to hide his identity for security purposes and that he just wanted to be anonymous while seeing the success of bitcoin. Maybe after it become super successful or before he die, he will show himself to the public.

For me he hide his true identity he wants a normal life because if he expose her true identity many people will have interest in her life like terrorism and criminals. Her life and his family will prone in death.
I have a question to.
Is he true lived in japan or speculation only ?

We have a similar point. In addition, maybe because Satoshi doesn't want to be famous. Not all millionaires are flaunting how rich they are in the society. Maybe Satoshi is one of those millionaires who are very humble in dealing with money. Also, he wants to extend his or her help to others on how to have a better living despite how difficult to handle life everyday. Commonly, money is the main source for basic commodities or maybe he has experienced how to be poor in the past that's why he created bitcoin.

Trust me, Bitcoin is succeeding just because Satoshi is not coming in front of everyone. He is supporting the properties of his invention by anonymously working for the whole community and taking nothing in return. Many good doers like to do their deeds behind the scenes and Satoshi is one of them. Even we all are interested in hiding our identities to remain anonymous, so we should consider ourselves as Satoshi too.

You n me, we all are Satoshi!

It is still a mystery no one knows who Satoshi Nakamoto is? Even some people believe that Satoshi Nakamoto is not a single person a team worked as and given a fake name as Satoshi Nakamoto. Don't think that mystery will be solved ever.

Why are you guys even interested in satoshi anyway? Yeah he invented bitcoins but he isn't god. He made something really innovative and something that could be the future of money, but that is it. Just take for example Thomas Edison. He invented light bulbs, but would you ask help from him if you wanted to improve your LED flashlight? I don't think so.

And come on! The guy disappeared for a reason. That reason is unknown to everyone, let him have his peace. For all we know he's dead. He didn't leave a good bye note, or anything that would say he left for a reason, we can also check his bitcoin address. If he was alive he sure would have move some funds from there.

No one really knows who Satoshi is and maybe we will never find out. I completely understand why he or She doesn't want to reveal the identity, that would bring nothing but troubles. Enjoying anonimity and richess it has was probably the best decision made. And for the users realy matters only Bitcoin, not his inventor.

IMO, everyone using Bitcoins is Satoshi, I would never trust anyone coming up and saying that they are "Satoshi Nakamoto" because Satoshi would never show his face publicly as the concept behind the invention of Bitcoins is anonymity, and if the maker themselves break the rules, how could he expect his innovation to keep their words?

That makes some great sense and I appreciate your articulation. We should just quit trying to find satoshi because if he existed or perhaps wants to be known he would have shown himself a long time ago. He is defending his concept of anonymity and leading by example.

I don't even believe Satoshi was a real person. The developers of bitcoin probably called themselves as Satoshi to stay anonymus. I don't think nobody in Japan called Satoshi.

The reason why don't espose their identity is that they never want to be known by the governments not to get killed. And this ensured people to use bitcoin to stay anonymus.

Firstly, there are many people in Japan and elsewhere named Satoshi.

Secondly, how was it that SN had the foresight in opting to remain anonymous when his worked was based on KNOWN giants before him having all their research readily available, Satoshi only solving one aspect of the problem?
