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.
There is no concrete date on when a wheel is created and it may be 4000 years ago and it is hard to determine who invented the wheel but bitcoin is a decade old and it is not a good comparison. Even if you wanted to know the inventor of wheel it is an impossible task but that is not the situation with Satoshi as he can always pop up right now and prove that he invented bitcoin by signing a signature digitally from one of his earlier wallets.

You can stop people to know whos actually Satoshi, he is a celebrity now and they keep digging to find who is it and might take some pictures together. But that curiosity leads to nothing as this person leaves no traces to see, he is really anonymous.

A lot of rich people pretending he was the creator of Bitcoin (satoshi) but sorry, they failed to claim it and it is that because nobody could prove that he was the real creator. I'm not sure if this person was still alive because if that possible he's still around, he might be out now and tell his story just like other big and successful personality does.

All due to curiousity I think. On the first time I have got to know Bitcoin, I have also got curious upon knowing and hearing about Satoshi Nakamoto for it have gained my interest on knowing him but since identities here in cryptocurrency industry seems to be pseudo anonymous, then I did not bother anymore for it seem that there is no big impact if ever I do know him or not. It is just a matter of an information that one person wanted to know all due out of his curious mind that is why some are seeking about him. Probably for the newbies because the oldies do not bother anymore to know him. What is just the important thing is that no matter who he is, he have done a great thing that benefits us all up to this point of time and possible for the brighter future ahead of us.

Knowing who satoshi is will not be beneficial in crypto right now, I guess it will only put his security at risk. I guess it is enough that he had created crypto and let him be anonymous as he chose to be left with no trace. Some people are just curious who is behind the genius work.
It cant really be avoided on where there are people who do really want to know the origin of this bitcoin invention or innovation.It did really give out such impact not only on profit making
but also into the usage that it gives to the community this is why there are people whom  do really likes to know on whose behind on this one.It might not really be affecting the market as a whole
but can be denied that once he shows up himself onto public will really be creating that hype since the creator itself did make some revelation.This isnt something that
can easily to happen but who knows if he do make out that kind of decision.

Satoshi will always be a hot topic to be disscussed especially when bitcoin price is increasing a lot then there will be many people especially new comers who will be curious about Satoshi Nakamoto.

They will be curious why he/they creates bitcoin using a mysterious identity and they will be curious whether he/
she is still around here and how many bitcoins it has.

But it will just for a while, after they know bitcoin and they have bitcoin they will be focus on how to make money in bitcoin. They will be focus on how to invest well and how to trade well. Because bitcoin can give them money in a few times if they able to predict.

“I wish you wouldn’t keep talking about me as a mysterious shadowy figure, the press just turns that into a pirate currency angle.  Maybe instead make it about the open source project and give more credit to your dev contributors; it helps motivate them.” Satoshi Nakamoto

Some people are looking for him/her who is the real Satoshi but I'm sure he is watching us and he is happy of what he invented because millions of people right now around the world helping by the Bitcoin. It is really hard to find him because it is very secure his information and even the smart person are for sure are cannot find him so it means he is very intelligent.  They have different purposes and we do not what it is.

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.

For every major invention in the world, we know the details of its founder. But when it comes to bitcoin, we only know the name of the founder of bitcoin ,Satoshi Nakamoto.  But we do not know any further details about him and no one has seen him physically that's why everyone is curious to know this mastermind who created bitcoin.
A great idea of the times and an asset of high value but even as more people use it, people still don't know the author behind this curtain, it is really a funny thing and arouses everyone's curiosity, I also searched a lot about the founder of Bitcoin but only knew about the names Satoshi Nakamoto, it's not clear and specific then from time to time I give up this curiosity. The networks of countries are also unknown, we can not do anything except to accept, no matter the conspiracy behind, as long as bitcoin is still a gold mine, we will continue to participate.

It is really more of curiosity here. And I guess a lot of us really want to know the true identity of Satoshi. However, it seems that we don't know if he is still alive or not. And if he is still alive, it seems he prefers to have a quiet life. And in this regard, I will respect his preference. We don't know the real reason why he kept quiet throughout these years. Maybe in time, someone will uncover his identity. Til then, let us be contented for what we have right now and be grateful that he invented this technology.

It's obvious that we want to know the real Satoshi Nakamoto despite of the use that he is the one who invented the most trending cryptocurrency right now which is the bitcoin and obviously it is really good yo know further details about the true identity of this inventor. Just like what the others say every great invention there is a great inventor in which we want to know why they invented it and what is the reason behind it. Everyone wants to know especially those person that becomes rich due to their invention.

Curiosity and nothing more.

I'm not curious of who Satoshi is TBH and I don't care if Satoshi is still alive or dead or anything that is related to him. Its enough for me that Satoshi created a currency that might change the financial industry as a whole Smiley. Its good that Satoshi really hid his/her/their identity and lets respect it if Satoshi want it that way.

We've seen many people claiming that they are Satoshi but nobody believed into them and it came to the point where people doesn't believe anymore in whoever will claim that they are Satoshi. It also came to the point where nobody is interested in knowing Satoshi anymore.

With all due respect to Satoshi, the brain of blockchain technology and the creator of bitcoin even i myself do curious who Satoshi was. I was also curious how he think of it, what made he think to create this on demand cryptocurrency, a much worth it and valuable crypto. It was such a brilliant mind like Satoshi that he come to this kind of cryptocurrency that i believe will be the solution to the diverse of fiat currency all over the world.

It natural for people to care about who Satoshi was and its something every crypto enthusiast once did when they were still newbies cause it something I have once done but after I read that left, I respect his decision and don't bother myself about it anymore.
In the situation where some people are obsessed with knowing his real identity in spite of knowing his decision, the reason behind can only two.
1) For fame. That's what happened with an investigative journalist with false claimed about knowing the real identity of Satoshi.
2) To destroy Bitcoin.

I believe that the community wants to know who Satoshi is in order to understand who is behind the creation of crypto. And usually this information opens the door to understanding why and for what purpose all this was created. Let me give you an example. Do you believe in crypto and then you find out that its creator was an ordinary fraudster for the illegal appropriation of other people's money, what would you do after that? You would probably reconsider your attitude towards crypto and want to sell everything and return the funds as soon as possible. On the other hand, if the creator of crypto would be a person who developed a solution to the global financial problem and thanks to him the whole world will be able to use the new money, and those who are now among the first will receive a number of advantages.
Probably, this information would induce you to even more adoption of crypto and you would know 100% that you are in the right place at the right time. As the saying goes, power is in knowledge!

money is a sensitive thing. everyone needs clarity.
I know this is not a forum for conspiracy theory, but what if bitcoin was invented by a group that rules world economics all this time.
so there's a chance that we will be f*cked up "centraly" and "decentraly" Grin
people also care about satoshi, because some group might want to attack him, and intervene bitcoin.
if satoshi's identity finally reveals, I believe there's more chance for bad things to happen.

There are some reasons for which people are curious to know the real Indentity of Sathoshi Nakamoto the creator behind Bitcoin.

1) With growing adoption and popularity among the masses everyone is curious to know who was the brilliant minded programmer who has created Sathoshi as everyone like to solves the mysteries of world.

2)His pseudonym Indentity and leaving Bitcoin after 2011 has created more interest in people to find his Indentity

3)His Bitcoin holdings which are more than 1 million Bitcoins which are 5.24% of the total supply of 21 million valued at current price of $55k per coin making his net worth at $35 billion adding him in Forbes richest person list.Its really huge amount and this makes people more interested in him.

4) His creation has make him a celebrity every crypto enthusiast wants to meet with and know his more secret creation and development he has made in these years.

But still he does not want to reveal his Indentity and remain in closed doors until he wish to do so.

Why do people care who Satoshi Nakamoto is/was?
(I'll refer Satoshi as a "he" even if it may not be correct, to avoid adding more subject pronouns)

To me, the answer is simple:  They are afraid of his wealth. If he actually mined around 1 million bitcoins, then he owns 1/21 of all coins. Whether he still has access to them or not, it'd bring a lot of fear and panic if suddenly, there were one million additional bitcoins for sale.

But, there are other people that admire him for his work, because he freed them. That man is the cause of the term "Blockchain", an innovative technology. It's pretty weird that no one will ever know who is the person who started it. But not just for the blockchain, he didn't just have the idea of a decentralized currency. He spent two years of his life, trying to implement the peer-to-peer timestamp network he was visioning combined with the proof of work. It was a work of art at its first release.

I wonder what was Satoshi's expression when he realized that it is possible to achieve it with the proof of work.

Hi there Joe_Bauers, I have 3 reasons why people are looking for Satoshi
First; in legal matters, any creator has the rights in their invention, thus there will be a huge lawsuit that could be triggered when Satoshi will be grabbed by a Single Corp.
Second; Business, there will be a lot of company that will use Satoshi to leverage their business by using him as a new member, a founder, or a partner
Lastly; Control, Satoshi holds 1.1 million bitcoin that is greater than any bitcoin whale, thus he could manipulate market price with such a huge amount of possession.
