Bitcoin Forum

Imagine one day, we see Satoshi connect to the forum and open a topic to say Hello I'm back. And that he gives us irrefutable proof that it is him. What would happen?

Would satoshi go to work for Blockstream?
Would Roger Ver start crying like a child and return to his cave?
All the media will talk about it and so with the snowball effect, the Bitcoin would go not to the moon but to another galaxy?
Do you think he will continue the Bitcoin project, or lets others taking care of it?

I hope he'll at least give me a bitcoin t-shirt with his autograph, I'll put it next to Messi's.
He will get 1 Merit point from me, I swear

It would be funny news and I certainly laughed very much.
Humor is always better than unilateralism and discord.
P.S. I would write - Hi Satoshi, are you back? disappear again, please!

Love & peace shall be upon the universe.

It would be an honor to see him back, we don't know maybe he is still around observing this forum right? Or that he is making ready to invent more cryptocurrency for us, it is really a great honor that we have someone just like Satoshi who invest time here.

I guess we would see a bunch of BTC bloggers and vloggers heads explode.

Then there would be the battle of FUD and MOON discussions. The worse part about it is, no matter what Satoshi says in this hypothetical the NEWS machines would trun out there own narrative, because News has become more of an opinion piece than anything. I imagine it would go something like " Satoshi says he just wanted to check back in with the community and engage in the debate, but we here at chanel 496 belive BTC is dying and he is trying to dump his coins to save his fortune... Take it away Bob"

Takes of Negative hat.

As for the forum I think if that day came, he would be interested in some technical discussions and talking to some of the members here who delve into the behind the scenes stuff. Maybe even have a chat about some of the old days with any of the members who can remember back then.

Your questions are impossible to answer without any additional assumptions - if he will just say something generic like "Hi, I'm back", then we don't know what will he say regarding the current Bitcoin protocol, developers, community, rival forks, etc. What I think is most likely happen immediately is the market panic, BTC will probably drop 2-5% percent as speculators will be scared that the biggest rumored whale might sell his coins. If Satoshi will be positive regarding Bitcoin, it might experience a small boost, if he will be critical, the price will somewhat drop, but I'm sure it won't crash too much, as a lot of people now have their own opinions regarding cryptocurrency protocols. If Satoshi would stand against Bcash, it will crash to the ground, because it is based on the premise that its the "original Satoshi's vision" and that Craig Wright is Satoshi.

Do you know that Satoshi was actually a member of this forum? Please check the below account and check his posts as well.

I don't expect him to come back online again because if it happens, the enforcement agencies will try to track him down for innovating the most important technology of this decade. Let him live in peace.

How would you know if he comes back. Recently many self claiming they are Satoshi Nakamoto and no one believes that. If he dont want to present himself as Satoshi then there would be no came back of satoshi.   

He may be interested to participate in bounties/airdrop :D :D

I don't think it would be good. I think a lot of people would freak out, because Satoshi holds a lot of coins and if those coins started moving again, even the idea that they could would cause a lot of panic.

If Satoshi really came back, I think Satoshi would not know that he is the most famous and successful in the world. "Satoshi turn around" will be great news for Bitcoin

As far as I know, Satoshi Nakamoto is just a name, not a human. Many articles say Satoshi Nakamoto is an organization and many people are involved in creating Bitcoin

I agree with your opinion. It is possible that Satoshi is a whale and Satoshi that can cause market prices to rise or fall as Satoshi wishes. I think this hypothesis is true

Do you think Satoshi owns a lot of Bitcoin? I think Satoshi will not appear because if they (the group) seems to threaten.
If I were Satoshi, I would not appear if I wanted to live on. They will not see the stupid appearance.

speaking in satoshi, you saw this:

July 4, 2018:

Is Satoshi Nakamoto Writing a Book, or Is It Just Another Publicity Stunt? (https://nulltx.com/is-satoshi-nakamoto-writing-a-book-or-is-it-just-another-publicity-stunt/)

apparently has someone who claims to be satoshi and will launch your book, you can see more information about it here:

Nakamoto Family Foundation (http://nakamotofamilyfoundation.org/l)

This will be the topic of conversation in the next days.

I think this can not happen. Or if this happens, I'm sure that someone who claims to be Satoshi is a scammer. Everyone knows that Satoshi will never come back

It's a big honor for us if he back now. Maybe he study now on what happened on bitcoin and thinking the best solution to solve the problem in bitcoin. I will thank him if I met personally for giving me this kind of opportunity.

Yep, instant market reaction would be uncertainty about what Satoshi's reasons for coming back might be, including whether he intends to sell some coins or carry on developing etc.


But let's not forget: Satoshi wasn't infallible, he made many early mistakes which early Bitcoin devs discovered. His opinions are to be respected, but that doesn't mean he won't get things wrong.

Also, I would speculate that if Satoshi ever returns, it will not be until when Bitcoin is either totally changing the world or until after that change has finished. And that's assuming a return; if you asked me to bet, I would bet on Satoshi never returning, anonymous forever

I think I and a lot of people like it and if it is true then I would be happy to take it and watch it.

Surely that was the day when everyone knew the true face of Satoshi. Surely Satoshi will be the most mentioned name on television and newspapers

Cryptocurrencies and Blockchain technology is already flourishing  and expanding, even without the presence of Satoshi Nakamoto. So even if he just pops up and go public, I do not think he can make a huge change in the current cryptocurrency landscape. I do not think that Satoshi Nakamoto is just one individual so something like that happening is almost impossible according to my understanding. The point to take home is that, Satoshi (or the group by that name) gave the world a game-changing concept and we are currently capitalizing on that, rest is history, even if Satoshi goes public now, he would be old story.

" Many article says" does not make it a fact, I did go threw Satoshi posts early in this forum and I am 100% believe that Satoshi is a person and not an organization, but this is my own opinion and I  can not force it on anyone .



I believe that Satoshi is either dead OR he is already with us but under fake identity . So the statement of him coming back can not be correct as he is either never left ( have fake identity) or already gone ( dead  :'( ) can not comeback anymore .

Anyway if ever that happened I think it might have negative impact on BTC price since there will be a chance that Satoshi might sell his holdings 1 million BTC is more than enough to make huge impact on market if got dumped .

The anonymously of Satashi is probably 100 times better for BTC than his appearance and he knows it  ;) . Because I believe he is here with us under different identity .

Honestly, I also need a T-shirt with his autograph Anyways The first thing that will happen is all the governments will immediately Get him off and take him to jail. Really no one wants that but there is no other choice He has broken Like 1000 laws by Making his own cryptocurrency concept. Even if he has revolutionized the world then also Governments are going to take strict action upon him. And BTW he is never coming back.

Yeah, and this is why I hope that his identity will never be 100% confirmed. I know there's been a few reputable sources such as Gavin Andersen claim that he might know who it is, but honestly I don't want it confirmed for the exact reason that you specified. He isn't perfect, and any flaw will be pinpointed by the media, and undoubtedly used for malicious purposes.

For example, if we ever found out the identity of Satoshi, and he was linked to crime we would likely never hear the end of it in the news, and there would be extra leverage for countries to ban/regulate it.

Yes, satoshi nakamoto make himself anonymuous to protect himself from different violation that he didnt follow. And I dont think he would going to spill who he really is. I believe satoshi was happy of what he did and if he was seeing whats happening his invention. He might break many laws but we still it gives us so many opportunity and hope to recover from our financial problem.

It's impossible for satoshi to prove that he is actually satoshi. I totally wouldn't be surprised if the first ever block was mined by someone else. But for the sake of the question, I don't see why he should be allowed back -- the current Core developers are the best in what they do, and we certainly don't need and shouldn't want to distract them with this. I just hope that whoever holds the first 500,000 to 1,000,000 Bitcoins will unload all that BCash and totally demolish that market. At current BCash prices he or they won't ever have to cash out their legacy Bitcoins, which is great....

I think that this simply can not be. Satoshi Nakmoto is unlikely to return, if he has not shown himself before, this he will not do in the future. And it was clear that during the activity on the crypto currency he had already taken certain measures to remain unidentified. This means that he does not want to publicize himself and declare himself. Yes, and he will not be able to produce strong evidence that it was he who created the crypto currency. In any case, a person with such data in Japan has never been.

That will be the greatest news the forum and bitcoins users will ever heard if anyone can prove that he is satoshi nakamot and has resurface, then I believe he will work more on expanding bitcoin purpose.

Satoshi nakamoto is not missing hes at the vacataion somewhere laying with her bed of 100 dollar bill drinking expensive wine with girls around him while watching the bitcoin chart to fall lol.

I dont think so because satoshi break thousand of law about making a new currency. And I think I he will not going to expose himself to public. He was happy now of what he saw to the effect of his invention which is bitcoin. Satoshi surely greatful that it helps lot of people in the world who uses it.

Maybe those people who thinks they are so professional about bitcoin like they are the ones who made it will be embarrassed since the very creator of bitcoin reappeared suddenly.  If that ever happens it would be nice if the bitcoin stability could somehow become good

Exactly. Satoshi's anonymity protects both the person/s and the Bitcoin concept: any personal details about who was behind Bitcoin will be amplified or exaggerated to be used by Bitcoin's competition. So it's best for everyone that Satoshi left, and never returns

Satoshi I think is now exist, because satoshi is the main reason why bitcoin also exist. And satoshi is the original creator of bitcoin as what people knows. But if we think deeply satoshi is only a generic that used by a group of people who originally created by a cryprocurrency business, and I don't think that name satoshi is only a one person, and I personally speculates that name satoshi are group of people who created cryptocurrency business. And until now no one knows where that name satoshi living because it is only a name used by the group of cryptocurrency creator.

Well, if he'd mention that he might sell a few Bitcoins of his bag (he is supposed to own 1 million BTC or so), the price would probably collapse back to 10$ :)

If he comes back. many people will be happy and I will ask for autograph.

i think it's not going to happen. he's been hiding for 9 years. why would he even expose himself

these will happen in chronological order:
1. a lot of FUD about how Satoshi would dump so a big price fall  due to panic
2. some old wounds discussions would start up again including the block size debate and all the drama with SegWit/BCash
3. more FUD thanks to #2 and more drop due to the panic induced by it.
4. eventually people would realize that bitcoin is not some shitaltcoin that is controlled by one person who snaps his finger and the coin changes, it is a proper decentralized network which is working based on consensus of the whole network not just one person.
5. after the whales and knowledgeable people bought cheap bitcoins things go back to normal and price rises back up again.

result? only a period of drama which slows everything down and postpones adoption for a couple of months.
I also believe it depends on the time of the possible "come back" in this scenario. for example if it were today then the effects will be a lot bigger than if it were in 5-10 years from now, by then people may not give a damn about it since we would have a lot more people who truly understand bitcoin not just some speculators wanting to milk it for money.

The price will react immediately. It will go down hard. <Well, depends what he says on the forum and what his plans are with his 1 000 000 bitcoins>

If he mentions that he is going to "burn" it, then the price will skyrocket, but if he says that the coins will be dumped back into circulation, then the price will go down.

His communication will be key to the events that would follow.  ;)

hahaha
Yes we all want to see him back to take Bitcoin not to the moon but to another GALAXY ....hahaha nice i like it.

This will be really an interesting incident if he really appears someday. I am eager to see what happens then. I think he will answer the questions about bitcoin that every one wanted to him. Besides all those who has claimed themselves to be Satoshi will get exposed, I badly want him to come.   

Waw..... Waw will be very extreme if the satoshi is back, imagine by you if satoshi back and sell all its bitcoin assets. everyone will panic and sell all of his Bitcoin and what happens is the destruction of Bitcoin.

if Satoshi back its make value of bitcoin increase.

Satoshi is not coming back. But if it happens, it's not gonna be good for the bitcoin.

The market will obviously react, but I personally think that there is less room for concern.

We can't stop the fud that will be flowing through the market, but we can think without jumping on every bit of news that we read nowadays. I honestly believe that Satoshi's ancient coins are no threat to Bitcoin in any way. I strongly believe that the coins people are afraid of, are burned due to the ethical fact that Satoshi wouldn't want to abuse his economical advantage over the rest of the market, and the fact that no one will ever be able to identify himself as Satoshi. No private keys = no possible way to prove anything = best outcome for everyone here.

Imagine, it happened years and years ago, all with the knowledge to let Bitcoin grow to what it is today. And it did. Without Satoshi we wouldn't be here and we would still be subject to governments and banks terrorizing our lives. This is also the first ever time that a normal person can generate a tremendous amount of wealth which else wouldn't be possible.

If it will happens, I wish he will shower us with bitcoins as a reward of patronizing his creation. But seriously, I am hopeful that when he appears here, I want to thank him for there are lots of us here savouring his great creation.

If it comes back, it is likely unlikely to work for Blockstream. I think Satoshi Nakamoto will just Express his opinion about everything that is happening now in Bitcoin, but no more. Of course, this will provoke an increased interest in Bitcoin and perhaps even a rise in the price Bitcoin.  But I think that this will all end.

Of course, it would be better if Satoshi doesn't come back, it keeps something magical about the Bitcoin story. It's better to let the myth of the Bitcoin creator and also give a shot to the conspiracy theories. But at the same time, it would be fun, the crypto world is like a soap opera. I can imagine the mainstream media publishing all kind of articles if he returns. I wonder which Bitcoin is would support, the original or Bitcoin Core.

I think he's not interested in doing this. Most likely, the team of Satoshi will be much more interesting to see the price of bitcoin at$1000 000. If he wanted to, he would have done it long ago.

i will honor him and i will thank you him so much in rumors many people says satoshi is not a person it is group who creating the bitcoin then they name the group into satoshi nakamoto if he is the true that he is the person i really really thank you him that because he give me a new life if the crypto woud not change my life i wish i could see satoshi i want to take a picture with me.

I believe he will be honoured by all forum members and even if he decides not to continue the bitcoin project by him, Bitcoin must take a new dimension just like you  said  not just to the moon but to another galaxy. And the whole world will be excited to hear the breaking news most especially the cryptocurrency holders because market will boom for sure.

I think many people will be happier than ever, well because its nice to know the real identity of the creator of bitcoin. Whole world will be excited to know him and he will be honoured. I will thank him for creating bitcoin , because bitcoin is very useful to us.

Or she...? We live in year 2018 already, people said we don't assume gender anymore.
Or they...? 

still we don't know the outcome of the future, maybe bitcoin will grow bigger if this will happen or maybe there is a new coin would be introduce to us, but however still we do not know what will be the outcome of tomorrow.

Satoshi work for Blockstream (or any other Crypto company for that matter )? I don't think so. Recognizing Adams Beck in his Whitepaper doesn't mean he believes in his way of thinking or doing thing.
  Blockstream is Centralized entity compared to Satoshi's important invention. It'll be kind of weird for him to work for the Company. 

He will probably accept an advisory role.

I think there 2 scenarios happening with him right now. He is definitely a person who really loves crypto.
If he is old, he has probaly been watching us nd seing how his son, bitcoin, is doing.
If he is young, he probably participated in making other coins or platforms with some people or on his own.
But it would be great to at least know who he is.

I think if he comes back then bitcoin price might go to moon or $0 because if he likes the development of bitcoin then he might contribute more the better of bitcoin or he will ran off with money by selling bitcoin he kept.

Yeah I know, but let's be honest. Better to work for Blockstream than working for Roger ver and his Btrash. ;D Imagine seeing him going to work for Roger Ver? Man, I leave the crypto world forever without any question


Seeing how people are using Bitcoin as an investment rather than a digital currency I don't think so
I doubt he is young, it needs a lot of knowledge to create such project, I guess he is at least 40 years old by now

It will be awesome and amazing to have satashi nakamoto back to the crypto world. There will be an unprecedented revolution when we get the ideas of nakamoto in this crypto journey.

If the rumors are true that Satoshi holds one million bitcoin and sold this after coming back then there will be a big impact on the market. what I think is Satoshi is just lurking around with a big smile after having billions of dollars thru bitcoin  8)

Satoshi should just remain where he is and continue enjoying, he should not appear because it will cause more panic.

it will be really exciting day for me if satoshi come today .what a genius person he is .he invested most amazing thing in this era bitcoin and blockchain.
i think whole world will watch him if he come

Satoshi made a real gift for the whole bitcoin community by disappearing. For that reason bitcoin is not associated with a signle person and therefore doesn't depend on his statements or well-being. If Satoshi returned, bitcoin would become more vulnerable and dependent as Ethereum is on Vitalik.

It would be bad for him with so many people trying to track him down. He could be using the forums under a different name right now and remain safe.
Also for those who think that he should move his money at some point, he doesn't have to and probably never will. You know his officially mined coins and he could be solo mining in 2010 and make millions.

Satoshi Nakamoto resurfacing again will help put all the negativity and doubt about bitcoins and I think new development will be added to the bitcoin blockchain.

I don't think it's a good idea going online again just to say " Hi I'm back " it'll just attract a lot of people and will try to track him down or cause commotion

If this guy registers on the forum and opens the topic with discussion, then it will at least be the hope that bitcoin will not die in the near future. In my opinion, it would be very interesting to create a topic, like answers to questions, where one could ask questions directly from the guru himself. Good topic)

If that happen, then price of Bitcoin will reduce because not everybody can take risk, and trust me News paper and television would say negative thing about satoshi and that would cause more panic to investors. Let Satoshi stay anonymous because coming out may even treating his life

IT WOULD BE A FRAMEWORK FOR OUR ECOSYSTEM FOR I WOULD TRUST TRUST AND INCREASE ITS VALUE BUT I THINK HE WILL RETURN AND BRING A GLOBAL SOLUTION AGAIN AND FOR SURE HE DIFFICULTLY THE CURRENT RESPONSIBLE PEOPLE WOULD GET IN FEAR OF HIM AS HE WOULD SIMPLY DID NOT APPRECIATE HOW THE THINGS HAPPENED FROM HIS OUTPUT

I don't think it will happen he made himself anonymous to protect himself because he has a lot of bitcoin and a lot of violations too

 :) :) It will be very interesting and trust me many will not believe him but he does come then he truly deserves 0.5 BTC  as a form appreciation from all it holders. He will definitely become crypto idol 

I only have two things in mind. It is either he is going to help towards adoption and boost the value to shocking all time highs or the banks will  never let it happen and assassinate him as soon as possible. There is no better way to slow us down but to kill the person that we admire so much here in the cryptocommunity.

If that happens that will be written in golden letters, government agencies will try hard to track him down and there will be biography of him couple decades later.

i dont know news about satoshi nakamoto the founder of bitcoin, until right now i have some bitcoin and do some transaction in bitocin i dont know about satoshi nakamoto, if he comeback in this forum i think there are many issues in this forum, and people in this forum will find who is the real satoshi nakamoto from the internet

I think he is running the bitcoin daily but he does not want to discuss it. It seems he is trying to make something special for the public.
Thanks to him we have had a great job and a high salary. If one day he appears in public, I will thank him very much.

He made himself anonymous to protect BitCoin not himself because he worked for Google and Google would have taken the project, made it proprietary, and used it for their own benefit.

I think Satoshi is not really out of bitcoin, but actually he's in this forum with a different nickname, commenting and watching bitcoin holders, or maybe he's laughing when other people talk about him, LOL who knows?
The most important thing is we are already on the bitcoin track and we have to keep developing it, according to the goal that Satoshi makes.

I do not think you are right. If Satoshi comes back and he claims that he is holding 1 million BTC. I think the market will quickly collapse if satoshi sells Bitcoin cheap. But maybe Satoshi died because no one knew the exact information about him

I don't think that satoshi nakamoto will be back to this forum in the future, but it is possible. I think he still online on here, but he doesn't declare that he is the real satoshi nakamoto because, for him, it is better to stay in the dark so he can do whatever he wants. but if he is come back and say "hi" to this forum, then I will ask for just three btc to him ;D

I think many people will ask many questions to satoshi related with bitcoin and the governments too so they can get the right answer about what is the idea behind the bitcoin and blockchain technology. but for the price, I don't have any idea what will happen with the price because if satoshi comes back, then we all know that he has the most bitcoin amount and he can easily to sell all of his bitcoin.

If Satoshi suddenly turns around, I think the Mafia will catch him. Because when he created Bitcoin the world's largest Mafia organizations poured money into it, but at some point, the money poured in billions of dollars that led gangs to lose money. main. It is possible that Satoshi did not leave the bitcoin market he was trying to hide in order to continue to develop some kind of coin for the future when the bitcoin price was not as high as it is today.

Yeah i have seen the owner of the account satoshi nakamoto with silver coin on the bottom of it. Thus, offering to send him a bitcoin and in return he will double it to you. Some had gain on it already and some did not believe on it. HOwever, that was really the owner showing his account and using it. If he will come back and made some post on the thread then definitely this will increase the morale of the system and even the power of the people to invest more on it will increase also.

I don't think there is a person to find a person. If someone says that he is a Satoshi, most people just think it's a joke, because everyone says he is Satoshi every year.

It will create a huge hype in the market of bitcoin because the creator finally showed up and that means that the trust of the other people will just go up because they will be feeling more comfortable than before because they know that there is the creator where they can depend or rely on making bitcoin a better cryptocurrency.

If this happens, it's a lot of surprise and it can have a big impact on the price of bitcoin. Because Satoshi Nakamoto will continue his project and will surely increase the bitcoin supporters again. I hope this will happen and I can not wait to thank him for the great help he has given me.
