Satoshi lives on the moon now. He's waiting for us to join him.

I really wouldn't read too much into when he last posted - I don't believe that there is anything symbolic or premeditated about it. He is gone because he is gone. Maybe he was spooked, maybe he felt that his work within the community was done - who knows?

While satoshi is a mystery, even to those that worked with him, everything he touched need not be interpreted as symbolic, or something with greater meaning.

Don't be sad that he is gone/not using that account, be glad that he brought Bitcoin to us! Tongue

He (or they) is definitely still around. I'm sure they are closely following the evolution and adaption of their creation, and likely still contributing ideas/suggestions/solutions to bitcoin, in one way or another.
The open source nature of Bitcoin would make this very well possible.

It's entirely possible that he's still working on bitcoin or amongst us. Maybe he just wanted to get away from being the creator of it.

Probably lurking somewhere lol, he may or may not be around here anymore but nevertheless, thanks alot satoshi.

Most likely.  Although most of the work was done before bitcoin was released

Hi,
I saw the last post of satoshi in 12.12.2010
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.29479

Strange date for last posting.
Is he gone from this forum, or he is acting with another name? Why is he hiding at all?
The date of the last posting of him is also strange 12 12 2010 ( triple 12)
This can be related somehow to BTC..Huh
Any suggestions of oldschool members who actually talked with him ?
Thanks!

My point is that if someone gets Satoshi's million coins then they could destroy Bitcoin valuation themselves and keep the valuation low for a long period of time as they released the coins on the market. If this were to happen, it clearly opens the door for other coins. Yes no other coin is close, but that is because Bitcoin is so valuable, you change that price and people are being foolish if they don't think another coin could take its place.

The problem with the thesis that driving down BTC's value would enable another to take its place is that all other crypto is basically tied to BTC pricing and 99% of the trades for altcoins are done via BTC. So driving down the price of BTC would just drive down the price of all other alts to almost the same degree.

I don't think it would work at any rate. There are enough people who would start buying up the million BTC as the price dropped that I expect, after the dust settled, that BTC would still be well above $100 and probably several times that. Only if the sell-off coincided with some seriously bad news of Mt. Gox magnitude would the buyers stay away.

I would argue that the value of most/all alt coins are based at least somewhat on the value of bitcoin. So if someone were to drive down the value of bitcoin, either by selling Satoshi's coins or otherwise the value of other coins would drop as well.

IMO the real reason that Satoshi left was because Bitcoin was successful enough so that it no longer needed him as well as the fact that if he were to continue to be involved in Bitcoin that the chances of him getting Doxed would be too high.

Did Satoshi disappear because of Wikileaks?

It would take much weaker balls than Satoshi's to disappear because of WikiLeaks

Satoshi is part of the design of Bitcoin. It is probably a pseudonym for a decentralised group of people. That way, they remain anonymous. Even the anonymity of the creator could look like a bad thing, it has more advantages than drawbacks. That way, nobody can attack the "head of the project" to discredit it. Look what happened with wikileaks. They attacked Assange to mess with everything.

So, Bitcoin is descentralised and under pseudonym to protect it and its creator too.
it seems what you say is true...

I wonder if he's working on something that can be bigger and better than bitcoin? That would unleash a shitstorm.
