Please stop these useless conspiracy theories. It does not matter if Satoshi was just a regular man, CIA or NSA agent.
Bitcoin is open source; Bitcoin works and currently has no flaws. It does not matter who created it.
End of story.

It recently occurred to me that all this speculation about "who" Satoshi is might be a red herring, and that the name does not stand for an individual person but for a top secret gov't operation. Then I started to wonder how to crack the enigma of that elusive name, and it soon became clear that it had to be an anagram for something. As I researched further into this I became convinced that this has to be the answer to "who" Satoshi is. After some exhaustive work I arrived at what seems to me the most likely decipherment of the code and I now present it in these forums for the review of the bitcoin community. You may not agree with the specific anagram I came up with as there are many other possibilities. But it seems undeniable that the name "Satoshi Nakamoto" is some kind of code. Solving the code could be the key to the survival of bitcoin. Here's the anagram I came up with:

A NSA Soma hit to KO

KO is of course a term from the sport of boxing which means "knockout." Soma is a fictional drug from the Aldous Huxley novel "Brave New World," which is used to keep the masses docile and controllable. I don't think the term "NSA" requires any explanation in these forums.

And with this it becomes clear what's really going on with bitcoin. I'm not saying to avoid bitcoin and never use it. It's possible that the people will be able to re-direct bitcoin from its original purposes of governmental control, or even to create a new crypto with different aims. But an awareness of these hidden realities is advisable as we move into an unknown future.



No.
Not because I think that NSA had nothing to do with it, because it might, nobody knows.
I am saying no because your anagram is not convincing.
In fact it sounds like gibberish.

I don't think, if it was/is the NSA, they would be using an anagram.

I think they would have chosen a poor guy, and dump everything on him. a real person to act as a puppet....

I don't think they would have presented anyone as Satoshi.
If nobody knows who Satoshi is Bitcoin lives.
Once Satoshi comes forward, Bitcoin is dead.
At least that is what I think.

But an awareness of these hidden realities is advisable as we move into an unknown future.

First of all, government secret operations do not usually name a program (or "code name") that actually corresponds in a meaningful way to the actual purpose of the program. It is more likely that if it was a secret op, that the creator would be associated with an actual person in society, for credibility and mass adoption.

Second of all, if you really think about Bitcoin/bitcoin, and all its possibilities and how it can truly change many systems that exist today (ex. tech, banking, government, social), then I personally do not believe a secret op would want to create and release this upon the world. If you and your group liked the status quo and were attempting to maintain it, I do not believe Bitcoin/bitcoin in the long run, will help your objectives. It could potentially erode it.

Even though I enjoy reading the Satoshi conspiracy theories, I do not believe he created Bitcoin/bitcoin to control people, but to free them.

Open your eyes bro, that's just what they want you to think. They depend on codes built into their public names, sorta like how private key encryption derives public keys from private keys through the use of passwords. How else will allied agencies and operations communicate with each-other without risking the interception of their signals. They build secret info into names so that various deep-cover agents and groups can retrieve the information without the use of radio signals.

I just broke their code and instead of thanking me you guys are attacking me. Fine suit yourselves, go on living in the dark until they decide it's time to bring down the gauntlet.

You're just going to get responses from bashers in a thread like this

I'm not sure if this is serious or not, but I'd like to hope that it's not. It reminds me of those pitiful attempts that try to convince people that the Illuminati is behind everything and present an image of a triangle as evidence. An anagram doesn't serve as appropriate proof of such bold claims in any way.

Well don't blame me, the NSA came up with it I just deciphered it. There are, howerver, other possibilities:

oh i am nsa task too

I mask nsa oath too



There is a lot of anagrams with "satoshi nakamoto" words.
Also I think that you can find some good phrases also with "SS" (Schutz-staffeln),
And  so on... but i think that your good analysis is not scientific :D but is more "a monte carlo" solution to a problem that you decide where to fit (convergence).
Attention!
I am not able to say that "NSA CIA FBI" or whatelse are not implicated, by the way if there is a fog of anonymity, who is behind the creation of the protocol could be "everyone".
No I am not ...  :P

You mention this was a single, isolated secret ops program but I disagree. I think the NSA made over 100,000 smaller ops programs all under the "Satoshi Nakamoto" umbrella.

Ya know I always wished I was good at code breaking. It is interesting, but I'm also not good at math or other related things. It is also interesting to me that math and code breaking is best done by young people. In math you are washed up at 30.

Why would NSA go to all the trouble creating this huge sprawling secret organization then drop the simplest easiest to figure out clue right in the open? It makes no sense that an entity who could build a virtually uncrackable code would try and hide something in a puzzle so simple that a child could see through it.

At the end of the day, consider this: Even if Satoshi Nakamoto was a team of NSA geniuses at work, it wouldn't even matter. First of all, the project is open source and does everything we expect. Second of all, other technology created by the gov, in this case TOR, ended up as useful for the common folk. Hell even the internet was some secret army shit.

And the predictable cover-up attempts begin! Just more proof that I'm onto something they don't want people to know about.
More proof you're nothing but a loon, LaudaM makes points and you say it is proof that you're right without acknowledging the information just given to you.


Valence your name is an anagram of Enclave, such as could you be an NSA spy surrounded by members? No, it's just a damn anagram.

Well I certainly don't agree with Laudam's point that bitcoin has no flaws. I also think it matters a lot who created bitcoin, but that's besides the point. Not sure what you mean by "NSA spy surrounded by members," so can't respond to that particular accusation.

These ad hominim attacks are telling, the truth hurts i guess.   :'(
Your first reply to me implies that I'm actually part of the cover up. Which is a useless assumption because I would say that I'm not in either case.
I said that Bitcoin currently has no flaws. This means that tomorrow someone could come up with a way to break SHA256 and such.
If you say this is false, please provide me with the evidence of those alleged flaws. Anyone is free to verify the code for themselves to check if anything is broken.
In this case: minor bug =/= flaw; weakness =/= flaw.

It's funny how much conspiracy theories we had about real Satoshi's identity on this forum.
At least Satoshi proved to be smart until now and stay anonymous and obviously there is no reason for him to show up his face in the public.
Probably Satoshi is not just one single man but whole organization but it doesn't matter really.
Enjoy your bitcoin, spread the great news and enjoy the ride!
Don't bother yourself with the questions to which there is no answer.

Sorry but I find that very narrow minded and dumb to say the least.
People are the No. 1 species on this planet due to one reason.
Curiosity.

Curiosity is what made us the most intelligent animal on earth.
So saying: Don't bother finding out who Satoshi was or his motives, is just not going to happen.
Especially since he insists on keeping his 1M+ coins.
Why?

I just want to say that Satoshi is smart enough not to  reveal his true identity and that he certainly have enough reasons and do so, and that is why we should focus on the issues that we have more info (in more productive ways). if such an opinion is stupid to you, it's okay, I can live with that.
Of course, you can do whatever you want and still research about Satoshi, but please be polite to others who don't think like you.

I didn't say stupid, I said dumb - it's a much lighter/friendlier version  ;)
That being said, I apologize if I offended you.  :)

Now, are you not the least bit curious as to who Satoshi is and more importantly why do they insist on keeping all the coins they mined?
If the answer is No, then you are lying.
You know how I know that?
Because if you didn't then you wouldn't even bother with this thread  ;)

I just want to say that Satoshi is smart enough not to  reveal his true identity and that he certainly have enough reasons and do so ........

The upcoming Bitlicense contains a clause that says this.

Quote
Decentralized Currency Issuers May Still Require License - The first draft of the BitLicense stated that, “controlling, administering, or issuing a Virtual Currency” qualifies as Virtual Currency Business Activity subject to licensing. This remains unchanged in the new draft, and that’s unfortunate.
https://coincenter.org/2015/02/our-initial-thoughts-on-new-yorks-revised-bitlicense-proposal/

If Satoshi was still the active Bitcoin dev that would mean he would be controlling and administering a Virtual Currency. That would qualify as performing a Virtual Currency Business Activity and be subject to licensing. I'm not sure what the license would cost or involve, but it doesn't sound fun to me.

Whether he's a person, or a secret government project, he/it would still require a license.

Yeah, but that applies for the United States right?
From what we know Satoshi was in the UK (which will probably follow U.S example but anyway).
I am saying that based on the coinbase message he put in the genesis block.

I'm not sure but doesn't the BitLicense require anyone doing any kind of business with New York residents to get a license, even if they are located in a foreign country? I know some exchanges were considering refusing to do business with anyone from New York, but I don't know if things have changed since they released the second draft of the license.

Yes, I'm curious who Satoshi is, like every bitcoin user in the world, but just don't think that we will find answer to this question.
Maybe I'm wrong but I always try to focus my energy and time on something more productive, where I have enough info and resources etc.
This endless saga about Satoshi will probably never end and can be interesting for some people but if no concrete answers over long period of time I choose to move on to other things.
It's jsat my opinion.

What evidence?
All we have are his posts in this forum.

Which brings me to this question:
Why didn't he delete them before he disappeared?

Probably because there is nothing to identify him, but still.....

I wasn't referring to publicly available posts and such. The NSA, supposedly has access to private information like emails, chats and such. That's why people get mad about it. However, for several reasons, I don't think that any kind of private conversations of Satoshi held by the NSA are going to reveal anything to anybody. Firstly, I can't imagine the NSA searching and successfully finding information about Satoshi in the huge stash of information they have collected. I don't think it would even be of their interest to be honest. And even if all this is not true, wouldn't someone else already have revealed such evidence? Satoshi seemed to be extremely careful when it came to revealing his identity, which makes me think that even private conversation wouldn't be useful for that matter.

Please stop these useless conspiracy theories. It does not matter if Satoshi was just a regular man, CIA or NSA agent.
Bitcoin is open source; Bitcoin works and currently has no flaws. It does not matter who created it.

bitcoin has not flaws, if you are thinking the contrary .... then please explain or better illustrate these flaws ;). Remember that bitcoin was created only few years ago and it can surpass and 'destroy' the actual economic system (because it is better and more easier to use).

Obviously I agree with your later point, you're preaching to the choir.

A terrifying and apocalyptic scenario could be that NSA ( or some other "big brother" ) created Bitcoin to set up a new global currency in order to associate every address to every person in the world, just to easily control every single transaction of every single user in the world ( 'cause we all know Bitcoin transaction are public ).


In my opinion everything is possible, but this scenario is highly unrealistic. This for 3 main reasons:

1. Bitcoin is open source.
2. Thanks to the aspect above, many developers are able to create new coins, based on Bitcoin algo. Yes, in some cases they made some changes, but the important thing is that they based their coins on BTC. In other words, if Bitcoin never existed, altcoins never existed too, no doubt 'bout it.
A relevant aspect is that Satoshi Nakamoto is still an anonymous, while several altcoins devs are well-know in the community ( like Evan Duffield for example ). So if we have some doubt on Bitcoin cause we don't know who found it, we could simply move to another cryptocoin, which ensure us more privacy are more reliance.
3. If Bitcoin had been created by a so powerful organization ( like NSA ) , at this point, after 6 years, it would be much more popular and adopted all over the world. They would set up a majestic media campaign or even force people to use Bitcoin. Nothing of it happens so I think your theory is quite improbable.

Tin-Foil Hat Alert: Bitcoin certainly would make the perfect currency solution for global governance, to create a cashless society where every transaction could be traced and exist forever in a database that can be looked at later - if all the worlds government would work together (or be taken over). All you would need to do is control every major ISP, which would control what miners would be allowed to access the network, then only the miners who follow the "rules" would be allowed network access. Those "rules" could include registering of addresses, regulation of the protocol, ability to seize coins by court order or bureaucratic mandate, etc... I mean the USA already passed laws and executive orders giving the government control of all communications and the internet for our national security, privacy and our "protection". We call that Net Neutrality, and it spreading all over the world to keep "a free and open internet".... controlled by your favorite dictators in chief... just sayin'.

I think point 1 is enough to discredit the Bitcoin is NSA conspiracy theory. They would never do this under open source software, it's self defeating. Im sure they want to get rid of physical cash in the future, and they will release their own "coin" but of course closed source and ingrained within the electronic fiat scam. Hopefully people doesn't fall for it and adopts Bitcoin instead.
