Why do people care who Satoshi Nakamoto is/was? It's like wondering the name of the person that created the wheel. Sure, I suppose I would be curious about the name of the inventor of the wheel, if nothing else to raise a beer to them from time to time, but ultimately the wheel is the important part of the story.

Don't you wanna Know the Name of Your Employer in case? Because Satoshi created the Thing that made us all having our freedom in financial aspect and also Gives us chance to make Money.

There is a lot of evidence to suggest the NSA was involved in the creation of bitcoin. As a thought experiment, if the crypto anarchy principles of bitcoin are genuine, why would they unleash cryptocurrencies on the world?

Which are those evidences?

It is all about curiosity, that is what I want to fulfill on myself why I want to know who Satoshi is, some also want to thank him and congratulate him for the things he has made for the world of crypto. Whenever there is someone who amazed us with something, just like the curiosity we have when someone did something we cant. I don't even surprise if there is a group of people who keeps on researching the story of Satoshi Nakamoto and keeps on finding him. Everyone or most of us want to know the image or the physical character of Satoshi.

You already said it 'curiosity' making people want to know the genius mind behind the great technology right in front of them, btc is not just your average invention (appreciate other inventions as well) it is way beyond that, many people have come to realise the uniqueness of it and are giving their support on a daily basis,
It is very natural for people to want to know, I wouldn't mind to know too, I mean it is the same thing most investors would do before supporting any project right?.
But in this case, btc has gain such huge amount of trust that nearly everyone don't bother about the person/people behind the masterpiece.

I'm sure everyone who is new to Bitcoin will be curious about the figure of Satoshi Nakamoto, because maybe many people are amazed
by Bitcoin, therefore curiosity arises to know its creator. But after starting for a long time in the crypto world, this curiosity will diminish by itself.
Since they would have realized that there were very few leads left by Satoshi Nakamoto, so finally they will understand that Satoshi
Nakamoto's whereabouts are not known and looking for him will only be a waste of time.

For one I want to know who is the man behind the technology that made many people millionaires, including himself. He made a revolutionary way for people to send digital assets around the world in a blink of an eye, in a push of a button. Without any third party regulator that maintains some kind of system. You can do this anonymously and without anything that would identify you as a person. That alone is an achievement and I want to thank Satoshi for that.

Hello everybody. A person is always worried about something - this is a creature that is sometimes interested in such things that will never be useful in life. It is no coincidence that the demand for tabloids is several times higher than the demand for even the most conscientious newspaper. Admit it to yourself - one of the first things that came to mind when you heard about Bitcoin is who created such a miracle that instantly rises in value. Bitcoin is a hero of our time, when somewhere they report about a hero, I want to know everything about him.

There are two main reasons for that;

1. Good reason - you know, like meet and greet, asking questions about his personal life, where did he went, how did he make Bitcoin, etc...

2. Bad reason - Like they will threaten him and force him to give all of his Bitcoin (if he's holding some), and they might want also to control Bitcoin if it possible, so they are going to ask Satoshi Nakamoto about it, or any worst possible scenarios.

it might just be impossible to see him though. if you have been in this forum for a while, you'd see countless times a thread about users trying to find him and analyzes his posts just to have clues. he seems to have covered all his tracks and not even trying to withdraw any of his coins to keep his privacy. he is an important person in the history of finance. it's interesting to know the person behind Bitcoin creation but i hope he won't be found.

I think it's a form of respect and admiration for the person behind the success of BTC and there's nothing wrong with it. It's like how did he come up with the idea of BTC and Cryptocurrency? Is there any story behind it? just like how Newton comes up with the idea of gravity. He's truly a genius after all and without him BTC/Cryptocurrency is just a possibility.

I am just curious on who is the creator nothing more than it,
I just want to know but not to the point that I would really spend so much time finding who is behind the name.
I would rather spend my time on something that would be useful to me.
If the creator doesn't want to reveal itself then we should just accept it and respect it.

Actually you've made a point. Who knows how many things there are out there that we still don't know the inventors of them. But people are still getting curious about it anyway. For example, we know who invented Ethereum or many other well-known cryptocurrencies. But we have no idea about Bitcoin. Actually we have some ideas but we can't still prove anything.

Until now, Satoshi Nakamoto true identity is still a big mystery, Many parties want to reveal who Satoshi Nakamoto really is, but true identity can be said to be highly speculative. There has been much debate as to who this very mysterious figure actually was. There are those who assume that Satoshi can be one person or a group of people, He could still be alive or is dead. But without solid evidence, we will never know who the real Satoshi Nakamoto is.

Most of us here don't care who Satoshi Nakamoto is, even though satoshi didn't invent the blockchain, we have to thank this one person, because he was the first to create a decentralized currency on top of the blockchain technology that has benefited us to this day.

I think mostly the ones that care about the idea of cryptocurrency don't care much about the identity and rumors going around it.
The main reasons why people express interest in Satoshi's identity are that Bitcoin is a revolutionary invention, much more than the wheel, I think, and it's not something as common or something we use in everyday life, it's still relatively new and the more there's talk about it on media - the more people want to know.
Also, the fact that Satoshi conceals his identity makes it more desirable, wouldn't you agree? Imagine if no one knew who invented Facebook, people would certainly wonder.

Why do people care who Satoshi Nakamoto

Been curious about the identity of Satoshi should be normal. It brings clearer picture of blockchain technology and enlighten others who would love to know how the whole technology came about. For me I love to buy knowledge. If I can deep deeper to find out his original identity I would do that. Not just for knowledge sake, but so as to approach the appreciate the technology behind the digital currency which has dominated the entire world

I don't really care about it. Yeah, sure it'll be interesting to find out who he is but it's not a big deal.

It is characteristic of all mankind as a whole - to know. Therefore, this is not surprising. Crypto traders want to know who their hero is.

The answer is simple because Satoshi Nakamoto is the creator of Bitcoin, therefore a lot of people are curious about who is the person who
was so smart at creating Bitcoin. Moreover, Bitcoin made a new breakthrough in the world of finance by providing alternative financial transactions
without involving Banks. Not to mention Bitcoin whose price is getting higher, for all these reasons, it is very natural that many people are curious
about the identity of Satoshi Nakamoto.

Being curious is not really caring who he is.

Like I want to know who he is out of pure curiosity but he could be whoever he wants and It would not change my mind about bitcoin. You must be curious how much money your neighbors have but do you care? Probably not because it doesn't really matter. It doesn't change your life or anything. Knowing Satoshi's identity also wouldn't.

Indeed. In addition, it would be great to make a picture in our mind whenever someone is talking about him.
Right now it's still blank or if they are talking about him I would see the Bitcoin logo. BTC
Just that and it's kind of awkward.

I doubt we will ever find that out. We don't even know if he is dead now or he is hiding using another name.
He made Bitcoin and he is a genius. He knows what will be the consequences once the government gets a slightest hint about him.

I like your analogy, because knowing Satoshi Nakamoto's identity does not change our lives or our view of Bitcoin. The most important thing is
how we must use Bitcoin as well as possible, in order to change our lives for the better. Rather than wasting time trying to find out Satoshi
Nakamoto's identity, it was a waste of time. Because many people have tried to find clues to find Satoshi Nakamoto's identity, but all of them
ended up failing.

We're both bitcoin users and that the reason why many of us ask who satoshi nakamoto is, maybe because they are curious about who is the bitcoin inventors, maybe want to give thanks to them/ him for his invention because it's very helpful for us who use it to make our life better, and that might the reason why they are curious to know who satoshi is/ are.
