We’ve published our list of the 15 people most responsible for turning this world haywire. But 15 dangerous folks weren’t nearly enough, you told us in your comments, your tweets and your Facebook mentions. So here’s a second helping of dangerousness, all thanks to you.

Satoshi Nakamoto. The pseudonymous creator of the Bitcoin digital cryptocurrency has seemingly disappeared into the shadows, but his invention lives on with potential to disrupt the powers-that-be. What happens when crooks can move money effortlessly online, without ever being traced? We might soon find out.

They're targetting the miners first. Maybe it's why ASIC miners will never ship, since they're going after the producers, not small time dealers or users.

Precisely.  Terminology is used with an agenda.  Satoshi & Bitcoin make the world a less dangerous place.

Does that mean Satoshi Nakamoto (http://www.wired.com/dangerroom/2012/12/more-dangerous/) is more dangerous than Max Keiser & Stacy Herbert (http://www.huffingtonpost.com/joshua-m-brown/best-financial-journalists_b_1605584.html#slide=1092093)?  ;)


No way. Stacy is a tiger.
