Title: Bitcoin Predicted During Pokemon in 1999
Post by: hondapond on July 03, 2019, 04:54:19 AM
Bitcoin was already predicted back in 1999 with many signs being in the Pokemon trading game.  "Satoshi" aka creator of bitcoin has ties with people that were in charge of Pokemon at the time.  I have researched this deeply and found many clues in the cards and anime.

Pretty clever and this rabbit hole goes deep, this has been in development and testing before we even knew it.

I probably wasted a good 5-10 minutes trying to lookup the definitions and the designs and find any connections with Bitcoin. Yea.. it'd be great if you'd actually tell us the "clues" you're seeing.

Only thing I see is the mentioning of "flipping a coin" on the images that was provided, so that could be his conclusion that it mentioned a coin.  ::) I know people who have played that before and they never mentioned anything about coins being traded in the game.  ::)

The other possibility is the Asian connection with Satoshi Nakamoto's name, but that would simply be stupid to make that connection.  ::) OP, mind giving us some indication or detail on where you see the connection?

The closest thing I've found was this:

Whatever "clues" OP has found, I'm 95% sure it's totally irrelevant. Next thing you know, OP will say that Brad Garlinghouse(Ripple CEO) also has ties to this milk brand:

I have to check twice to see if there is any connection. But so far I can't find anything here, lol.

And I don't think there will be one, if there is, it's just a coincidence. Unless the OP believed in the "Time Traveller" as well.  ;D

I didn't waste more than 5 seconds and went straight to the comment below :P
But I do remember another topic when somebody else claimed that one of the guys working for Pokemon was the inventor of bitcoin.

Actually, I've found more threads where that assumption pops-up.

Though I knew the chances for an actually connection between Satoshi/Bitcoin and Pokemon were very low, as a person who's been an avid Pokemon addict and fan when I was a kid(and that's a huge understatement), I really wanted to see clues.  :'(

Yesterday I said that the crypto world is becoming a big joke and today we have this:
Bitcoin was already predicted back in 1999 with many signs being in the Pokemon trading game.

As you like to investigate about satoshi, here is something for you to continue your investigation:

Satoshi Nakamoto Apparent Author of Two Upcoming Books on Amazon (https://cointelegraph.com/news/satoshi-nakamoto-apparent-author-of-two-upcoming-books-on-amazon)

And you can buy the books here.

https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1945652012/ref=dbs_a_def_rwt_hsch_vapi_taft_p1_i1

read the books, who knows you will be able to discover the identity of satoshi  ;D

If OP is talking about the creator of Pokemon Satoshi Tajiri, Just because they have the same name it is not always like that, But maybe OP was right about thinking something weird as this, Hey we don't simply know Who's Satoshi Nakamoto really is, And there might be a chance that he was really the creator or a member of Gamefreak and just used Tajiri's name as a code,

And there are some that have shared pictures and funny speculation about Ethereum's prediction, Ripple's Prediction was Ripple a protein drink I suppose, Well maybe there is some foreshadowing of well-known coins on the internet that we might have some funny conclusion about, And I don't think if OP is just serious or not about this thread but it is one speculation I might laugh at in a good way,

I don't remember it perfectly and can't find it in my history but I remember reading an article that said there are more than 50 000 (5000 sounds too low and 500k to high) persons named Satoshi in Japan.

I'm checking all the pictures for five minutes and when I can't find anything I checked all the other post and observation, and we all do have the same observation, those pictures don't tell anything about Satoshi Nakamoto and you have not returned to give more light on those Pokemon cards.

That is I think was funny about it, And why would OP would conclude something like this, April Fool had already past and maybe he still isn't recovered from it, But let's look at it as a comedic act of OP and he is not that serious about all this, That is why I conclude my own version of silly theory about Satoshi, And another thing is Pokemon Version's every given year would sure expand and so does Its Monsters in the game the Pokemon was clearly increasing in numbers and lump it with bitcoin that is every year increasing its price value, OP can really think of silly ways to make his theory, which is I find it silly but entertaining at the same time.

Andrew O'Hagan: why Craig Wright's Satoshi Nakamoto proof failed
- https://youtu.be/zxMU4C6bGKw

Excerpt from The Satoshi Affair - Andrew O’Hagan on the many lives of Satoshi Nakamoto , for the topic ...

Page 9
"... Weeks later, I was in the kitchen of the house Wright was renting in London drinking
tea with him when I noticed a book on the worktop called Visions of Virtue in
Tokugawa Japan. I’d done some mugging up by then and was keen to nail the name
thing.
‘So that’s where you say you got the Nakamoto part?’ I asked. ‘From the 18th-century
iconoclast who criticised all the beliefs of his time?’
‘Yes.’
‘What about Satoshi?’
‘It means “ash”,’ he said. ‘The philosophy of Nakamoto is the neutral central path in
trade. Our current system needs to be burned down and remade. That is what
cryptocurrency does – it is the phoenix ...’
‘So satoshi is the ash from which the phoenix ...’
‘Yes. And Ash is also the name of a silly Pokémon character. The guy with Pikachu.’
Wright smiled. ‘In Japan the name of Ash is Satoshi,’ he said.
‘So, basically, you named the father of bitcoin after Pikachu’s chum?’
‘Yes,’ he said. ‘That’ll annoy the buggery out of a few people.’ This was something he
often said, as if annoying people was an art...."

The thread is totally clueless, and now little by little more things have been found relative to the the images. As the founder of Pokémon and Bitcoin carries the same name Satoshi there is some contradiction. Just with the name Satoshi we cannot relate one person with the other. Even if the real Satoshi is found it is not possible to see someone confirming the same.

Op, I don't mind the whole idea of something predicting Bitcoin, but you gotta level-up your arguments. The images without any explanations are inconceivable. And that 'argument' about Evangelion made by vladimirhf looks way more solid, just like Ripple by mjglqw.
And since that reminded me of a thing that the Simpsons are known for predicting a lot, because they mention a lot. And you know what? I've found Simpsons predicting crypto as well:https://cointelegraph.com/news/moment-of-truth-for-eos-whats-next-for-4-bln-eosio-following-launch-of-v10.

I only see pokemons and nothing else, although I would be deeply interested if there really is something to be had in here. I doubt that the creator of Pokemons himself have ties to anarchist, let alone cypherpunks, knowing that at that time capitalism is what made the series a hit on all parts of the world. I would rather believe the Simpsons predicting bitcoin's inception because that show predicted a lot of things before it even happened, way more than Nostradamus' predictions lol.

Simpsons predicted 9/11, it looks too coincidental when Bart holds up a magazine of the twin towers with 9 11 printed in huge text.

I've heard Satoshi's connection to pokemon before, I'm not saying it is absurd but I'm not totally buying into it just yet.

Well, "It's you and me, I know it's my destiny!". I think that is what you are aiming for, or maybe that is your clue that means Satoshi really is destined to be a Pokemon Trai-, I mean the creator of Bitcoin.

All of the images I see in OP's message are not even directly related to the prediction he is envisaging here. Even if a relationship can be established, it does not necessarily means it was bitcoin that was predicted in the said image. I have seen an image of the Simpsons in which the cartoon there depicted a scene related to President Trump but its just mere coincidence. Lets us focus on issues that are important rather than trying to pick connections where there is absolutely none.

It's not clueless but just and attempt to be funny. If you imagine much, your imagination are going to be reality in some way in the future. The larger the merchandise and episodes of Pokemon the more thing they could be related to. The same thing does happen to the Simpsons. The show predicts every possible circumstances and some of them are going to be true in the future.

I feel so very stupid reading OP conspiracy theory but I'm glad that you brother posted this. I laughed so hard when I see the app logos forced to be related in satanic symbols. Especially the one who made the Libra mocking image is a genius. But back to the original post, it should have detailed explanation instead of saying that he did 'deep' research to find that out.

Exactly, nothing could be found. Maybe this is just someone's imagination. For some reason people try to find the "signs" of Bitcoin that announced it in the past but I don't think this is actually relevant. This might be just for fun but it isn't significant for anything.

This entire Satoshi mystery will stay unsolved like some of the greatest unsolved mysteries(Bermuda triangle etc). Everyone are trying to crack it in their own way and are coming up with insane theories like this Pokemon one.

However, I would not mind a connection between Pokemon and Bitcoin which would be freaking awesome. Just imagine a new game called Bitcoin Go where you roam around the world trying to collect Satoshis. Hilarious!

Expecting people to really level up on their arguments on this forum, buddy? Hope springs eternal I guess;) But you're right of course, although I actually prefer those with a sense of humour and who don't take their own explanations too seriously.

Now regarding the Simpsons, I've got to agree, and I think they're even controlling the destiny of Bitcoin market too. Bart's head patterns emerging several times now, and the upside down Bart's head. Rumour is, a Marge head pattern might emerge any time soon this week. Just because.

The funny thing with connections is that there are always there to be made, just like this concept of 7 degrees of separation or 6 degrees or whatever. Anyone can make a connection if they are willing to spend enough time to find the links and build some kind of familiarity. That's always how it works with patterns too, people see what they want to see.

We interpret those images based upon what we know about them not knowingly that they are created because there is a specific purpose. It was not named because of cryptocurrency. It was not coincidence. So, don`t make any interpretations to them.

Don't even look, don't waste your time because there is nothing in common between Pokemon and cryptocurrencies. The author of the post and the idea just trolls us.

Well I love pokemon and seeing those boxes brings me back to middle school. Yes there is a Satoshi lol dude Satoshi Tajiri made pokemon.

and.....

サトシ Satoshi) is the main character of the Pokémon Zensho manga

The only thing I can think of is pickachu is the lightning network and charizard burns tokens. It could be anything though. Why don't you come back and explain this to us?


I don't see how this is linked to bitcoin and I don't see the fascination with this anyway.

I am clueless about the relevance of the picture to Bitcoin.  FYI, I loved playing pokemon when I was younger, if ever there is a relationship between pokemon and Bitcoin, I could have been a pioneer in Bitcoin but alas, I only have known Bitcoin way back 2014.

The only thing I can think of is pickachu is the lightning network and charizard burns tokens.

what about Zapdos and Rapidash?  They both have lightning affinity and fire affinity such as those given pokemons.



Well, I guess OP have a wild imagination that none of us can see through.

Don't even look, don't waste your time because there is nothing in common between Pokemon and cryptocurrencies. The author of the post and the idea just trolls us.

Sadly, I just did :'( .

I, to be honest, also did not notice any similarity with bitcoin. I think you're looking for meaning where there isn't. Perhaps it was some kind of coincidence, and you mistakenly attribute it to the crypto currency.

A 100% coincidence, there is not even a clear clue in the card just ambiguous words, if pokemon really does predicted bitcoin during 1999 then it is certain that the satoshi nakamoto is the pokemon creater itself but not, it is just a delusion and baseless conclusion.

Hold up guys, the OP forgot to attach the most important thing, LOL

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=br-6BKGEPZE

The original singer of Pokemon, Jason Paige posted a Bitcoin Parody song above, "Gotta Cash 'em All"  ;D and it went viral. So for all Pokemon fans out there, I'm sure you are familiar with the voice, thus you can connect Pokemon to Bitcoin.  ;)

Ok, so this is the only connection we have so far, love Jason Paige and it's cool to see him doing this parody song. So I guess there's not much from Pokemon-Bitcoin connection here, unless you conspiracy guys can dig and find another link.

The tokens from pokemon look like crypto tokens. That is all I can see in relation to crypto. Maybe the lightning and fore pokemon but come on what a stretch.
Where is this OP anyway? I want an explanation to this weird post. Who is with me?

I feel so very stupid reading OP conspiracy theory but I'm glad that you brother posted this. I laughed so hard when I see the app logos forced to be related in satanic symbols. Especially the one who made the Libra mocking image is a genius. But back to the original post, it should have detailed explanation instead of saying that he did 'deep' research to find that out.

I would not call "conspiracy"... many logos have occult references. you don't call them "satanic" when you know what you are talking about. it's true that most designers don't have such symbology repertoire but at least branding designers should... ethereum is explicit, e-t-h-e-r-e-u-m. The ether of the greek. it's up to you to study or not and stay at common sense levels ;D zuck studies for sure, who saw the chaos magick sigil inside his jacket? libra's symbol is actually the astrological symbol of aquarius, a keyword for this sign is "freedom". zuck is still getting his inspirations from those poor twins (gemini) they are obviously soulmates :P

it is the easiest, make your own theory that something is developed based on something else, even that all the said is right, what is the conclusion of this? digital money existed before pokemon as well

Not only about bitcoin.Most of the recent activities predicted in comics,movies.Their imaginations will become into reality one day.Do you know 2002 Simpsons episode predicted Trump orb encounter? Things happening.Most of the new inventions predicted in past.Another example is Leonardo da Vinci . We can see  many things that he predicted in past.

Why is everyone believing this stuff 😂, even if there were something like *flipping a coin* , it could actually mean hell lot of things .
Therefore associating it with Bitcoins is pretty over the top since it's just how we want to see it ... Infact predictions and all are just filed by human mind trying to see what it wants to see in everything , there is no such thing because it would defy the laws of physics itself .
If it was actually brought out in the market before 2000, how would you justify the technology it took them ?
We didn't have anything well above 2005 , it was all too small to account for such big phenomenon.

I probably wasted a good 5-10 minutes trying to lookup the definitions and the designs and find any connections with Bitcoin. Yea.. it'd be great if you'd actually tell us the "clues" you're seeing.
I thought I am the only user manage to look for few minutes and think of finding the clue for the said prediction from pokemon. OP has said that he even made a deep research and does not provide any article regarding to the matter. Anyway, if it really is then hoping that OP emphasizes the image on where does bitcoin connects to pokemon. It is easier than looking and figuring it out without a clue.

I think in the year 1999, is not that year we think I recognize bitcoin way back 2010 and it was advertise in a small box and the price is very cheap and I did not believe that the price someday will get high. Also the year 1999 the technology in our country is not taht good enough. And being busy watching playing pokemons at that time.

I have actually read a conspiracy before about the pokemon creator, named Satoshi, is somehow connected to the creation of bitcoin in some way.  I'm not sure about secret meanings hidden in the cards and anime but it is possible.

The only the thing the picture reminds me of is cartoon movie called Pokemon. I don't see anything relating to bitcoin prediction through Pokemon cartoon. Explaining better will help than uploading picture without evidence
