Passed the baton for his pet project onto Gavin Andresen then moved onto different pastures, so to speak.

He periodically reappears on mcxNOW (http://mcxnow.com/) and doles out expensive 6h 40min-long paybans. ;D

This is epic, brilliant retort.

Anybody think there's a connection between Satoshi and Mt Gox? One sounds Japanese whereas one is Japanese.

It is the year 3030. Bitcoin is dominated by few hands: The Rockefellers, the Rothschilds, the Carnegies, Warburg’s & Nakamoto, according to YouTube.

Bitcoin had been an experiment in decentralized currency. But, by 3030, it had been adopted by the banking system which had reigned before it, and forever been changed.
Before this, an intermediate dynasty, the “old guard,” had reigned for approximately 100 years: The dynasties of Andresen, Garzik, Ver & Mayer.

The abovementioned dynasty “Nakamoto” was created by splicing the genes of the so-called “old-guard.”

No, Satoshi is way better than Mt Gox.

plotting, doing something, I don't know what, but it's probably pretty mundane.

He wants to be anonymous so we should respect that.  I wouldn't want him to be found.

He's really shy, so he doesn't want to be involved in Bitcoin now that so many people are involved (and very interested in him). He's probably working (alone) on some other interesting project now.

So you think he's singular and male? ;) If you made me guess I'd guess the same.

It's kinda fun to say he's watching us :)

Good god, the poor guy. He'd probably be facepalming so hard and fast, if you figured out how to extract energy from that you could power a half-ton of ASICs.

This. Better for him / them to remain un-found.

Which would mean he was following this ...

I mean, if I created a world changing paradigm I'd follow it.

He is planning next superior cryptocurrency and once it's released he will dump all the bitcoins he holds ;D

He's back on his home planet. He came here just to introduce bitcoin to earthlings.

It's fun to speculate on this.  Maybe he started a family and has no time for this.  Working on software can be time consuming.

Satoshi's actual purpose was not to invent a world-changing p2p currency but to make people use two spaces after periods.  Seems like he has had an impact.

It is possible he perished, or was severely incapacitated, in the 11:3:11 Japanese earthquake and tsunami that killed or mia ~20,000 people. The timeline fits ...

... but then I also kinda like the conspiracy theory that Nakamoto was a secret group of free market monetarist technocrats from deep inside the Communist Party of China, who used heavily NSA-centric crypto-techniques and an integral part of the plot was to enlist libertarian anarcho-capitalists Westerners as the early-adopters.

Ya, anything's possible.
