Topic: Would Bitcoin be the same if Satoshi wasn't anonymous? - page 8. (Read 23307 times)
there is a lot of potential if satoshi nakamoto shows his identity. there is a positive impact, at least growing investor confidence in the crypto market, maybe there will be further development of bitcoin. but on the other hand, there will be risks that must be faced. a group of people who dislike this industry will continue to try to pressure satoshi to achieve their interests. this is very dangerous, satoshi's decision can be manipulated.
Whenever I talk to somebody who don't know bitcoin, I am asked that who is the owner? Which country is governing that?
The anonymity of the creator of bitcoin is one of the main features of it.

I think Satoshi Nakamoto would have many enemies if he was not anonymous. And maybe governments would find an excuse to arrest him and have some fake crime to stop him from upsetting the status quo.
I don't think that Satoshi's anonymity plays a big role in the Bitcoin community, after all his fundamental principles are sound and the main attraction of Bitcoin is the economics rather than the identity of Satoshi.
If satoshi wasn't anonymous bitcoin would have fulfilled the aim of cryptocurrency.Over time government and some institutions have been fighting cryptocurrencies directly and indirectly.In recent times,we have seen Some strategic instutions calling some coins security of which if you watch very well ,you will see that they are fighting to stop the CEO of that project.Sometimes, they sanction the CEO of that particular project ,and at the same time collect huge amount of money as a fine.To make the matter worse ,those strategic self centred institutions have never created condusive environment for crypto to thrive,yet in a bid to protect the traditional currency,they call crytocurrencies names.
So,if satoshi wasn't anonymous,bitcoin will face every big challenge, and they might even arrest him for questioning.

I'm more inclined to think that this will have a negative impact on bitcoin. But on the other hand, it can increase investor confidence in the technology. I would be very interested to know the real name of this brilliant man.
It's hard to say for sure, but it seems to me that if the real name of the bitcoin developer becomes known, it will not affect him for the better. Independence and decentralization are integral parts of this technology, and the disclosure of the name of the Creator can break this independence.
I think bitcoin would depend a lot more on his decisions, maybe btc wasn't completely decentralized, Satoshi, if He wasn't anonymous, would have a lot more weight in bitcoin's decisions, which was also happening with his alterego, so I guess that's why he decided to withdraw from the scene.
If the disclosure of the identity of Satoshi happens now, then nothing disastrous for bitcoin will happen. It has already developed and strengthened in the world, so this event will not greatly affect the technology.
In my own opinion, it will be the same because Satoshi nakamoto is anonymous does not means that he is not interested in bitcoin anymore.
If he was known then people start to invest, but in unknown company no one invest. he will never come here to show his face as per his plan.
I feel the anonymity of Satashi is actually the strong point of Bitcoin. The focus is actually on the technology it self, instead of the man behind it. Think about it, how would you feel if Satoshi was like Elon Musk 
It would be an entirely different community. If Satoshi were not anonymous, bitcoin wouldn’t be as decentralized as it is now. Furthermore, it is in the interest of Satoshi to keep anonymity. As long as bitcoin has no leader, the government has no rights to make it taxable, less transparent, etc. So I think Satoshi made a wise choice and shouldn’t reveal himself.
I don't think Bitcoin will be the same is Satoshi wasn't anonymous because many people will have the rear of him selling off all his bitcoins and also the governments that wants to stop cryptocurrency would have found him and tried to make him destroy Bitcoin
How would the crypto arena be different if everyone knew who Satoshi was?
I think,it's different scenario in crypto market if Satoshi was not anonymous. And for sure crypto will not become decentralized because government will arrest Satoshi for violating the centralized currency. Or maybe it will lead to a lot of people use crypto without fear but need to pay taxes
Perhaps this would speed up the adoption of bitcoin in many countries. Maybe it would increase trust. But for you and me, I don't think it matters much other than curiosity. We have already seen what bitcoin is capable of and this is enough to trust it.
I think the bitcoin creator's decision to remain anonymous was an important decision for the technology itself. So if his identity becomes known, this can significantly affect the cryptocurrency, and not in a positive way. That's why I want everything to stay the way it is.
One of the main distinguishing features of bitcoin, thanks to which it has gained such popularity - is decentralization. But the public identity of the bitcoin Creator contradicts this idea. Therefore, in this case, the popularity of bitcoin will decline.
I think the present of satoshi nakamoto would not really change any different in the bitcoin. Bitcoin would still be the same
I think that then the idea of decentralizing bitcoin takes on a completely different character. In addition, the authorities or any other influential organizations can put pressure on Satoshi, which also will not lead to anything good.
