Why do people care who Satoshi Nakamoto is/was? It's like wondering the name of the person that created the wheel. Sure, I suppose I would be curious about the name of the inventor of the wheel, if nothing else to raise a beer to them from time to time, but ultimately the wheel is the important part of the story.

Most of us don't.

However, there will always be some people in the world that are obsessed with celebrity.

Well, perhaps because of the curiosity and people trying to find dot that linked to the bitcoin creator since bitcoin now is on the mainstream and trending all over the world. Perhaps if there will be who found the real Satoshi, they are a part of bitcoin history, sound like ^{[A first man who discovered the bitcoin creator]}. And that is right, they are obsessed with bitcoin and until now they even don't solve the puzzle that Satoshi left on us and it has given us a better opportunity. However, why not they don't respect the decision of Satoshi, to remain anonymous, --nothing will change to bitcoin even Satoshi will come up.

Perhaps they wanted to hear more about the legendary creator of bitcoin. He was shrouded in mystery, and as such people was looking to unravel his mystery. But yeah, for those who have enjoyed his invention, we rather not see who Satoshi is/was. He chooses to go underground, remain anonymous, that's it.

There's only 2 type of people when it comes to issues or topic like this.

-People who do really care on who's the one is behind of all the things we are experiencing now or simply talks about bitcoin.

-People who dont mind about this matter just because he doesnt really care or he's tired on seeing to those countless people who have been claiming that theyre satoshi.  :D

Yes most of us dont want/need to know who Satoshi was, its more
the mystique behind the person or group which draws the attention.

For me its not who Satoshi was its the master stroke of being and
remaining anonymous.

Its such an extroardinary thing to be anonymous from the first public
communication right up to the last known communication through the
years to today to remain unknown, remarkable.

Only the creator(s) of Bitcoin could master that!

I liken it in a way to The Voynich manuscript (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Voynich_manuscript) for the mystique...

I'm believing that many of us still have more questions to ask to the founder of bitcoin when we see him but I don't allow that to become a worry to me. We know bitcoin has the most important feature which is decentralized. That means we are to be free to enjoy it and liberate ourselves from the control of fiat by the government.

People care about who is satoshi because that bitcoin user is holding a little more than 1 million bitcoins. Can you imagine what will happen if he decides to sell them all, for sure that will crash the markets hard and in that moment he will be in the top 10 millionaires in forbes. That's why people keep trying to find who is Satoshi Nakamoto.

Another user like me would like to know who is Satoshi to say thanks for this awesome technology.

Besides basic curiosity who's the brilliant mind behind the Bitcoin creation, I don't. I guess most people don't care so much too.

But mysteries always attracts a certain type of people :D

I personally am actually curious about who is Satoshi, but I am tired of finding out who is Satoshi, I only get a profile that is not real, now I am focused on achieving how I can collect financial coffers for bitcoin
and hope the bitcoin price continues to rise

As an investor of certain business it's very important to know who's the person running the system of a business you've part of. But with bitcoin's anonymous identity of its creator, there's no way for to determine that discreet information regarding that very significant matter towards confidentiality. People don't literally care in way that there's nobody reveals a certain things, they're just ignoring it by virtue of no choice.

Sometimes, when it is something big, everybody will always talk about it. And why about Satoshi, because he is the founder of something big right now, and he is anonymous and uncovered until now. And moreover, some people claim to be him.
Bitcoin is about high technology, influencing many people's life condition, and become the pioneer of cryptocurrency. So, everybody will remind who he/she/it is.

Basically, it is normal if there are some people curious about the identities of Satoshi. He is a creator of Bitcoin and founder of the Bitcointalk forum, a person who created two big things in crypto history. However, since Satoshi didn't want people to know his identity, we must respect him. Trying to find out his identity without an obvious reason, seems like a thankless person.

Some people will care who he was and what is his real identity and some are of course curious about the face of the creator of Bitcoin in the first place. That's why they were eager to pay or do some deep digging in order to cover out who's the real Satoshi but Satoshi himself knows this that's why he's carefully covering his tracks in order to hide his real identity and then disappear for good without saying when to come back.

Lots of speculation about what really happened to Satoshi, some thinks he's a single person while some thinks they are a group of people called Satoshi but we don't know what are they/him. Only he himself and/or his colleagues know his whereabouts.

Just probably out of curiosity, throughout mankind's history, there are a lot mysteries that we wanted to discover, what really happen, who he/she. Even up to this day, people are still looking for clues as to who or what Jesus looks like.

So it's but natural, however, the question is, will they found out the mystery here, or will it be lost to oblivion?

There is no doubt that the conclusion reached with the invention of the wheel is undeniable, the great detail is that the invention of the wheel would come sooner or later, common sense of the human being.

Bitcoin is different, it is a unique invention, it is not that the idea would come to many as perhaps it happened with the wheel.

That said, Satoshi left a historical legacy the size of the pyramids of Egypt by maintaining the historical distance and importance of the pyramids, another simile. But with the exception of anonymity as the main sphinx.

And as such, that causes curiosity in locals and strangers.

G.B.

That is what made our species survive and evolved, we are curious with the things that we don't understand so we try and satisfy our curiosity by doing everything we can to find the answer. I don't know why they want to find who the real satoshi is but I think that stopping them to look for satoshi is just suppressing what humans really are.

It's just like a adopted child in which when time comes of age , Surely will seek to find out who's His/Her Biological parents .
This is same scenario as We as Bitcoiner wanted to know who Satoshi really is/Was .

maybe to tribute or Thank the person/s for what he gave us and how this change the life and the world.

though sometimes it is exaggerated because obviously Satoshi don't really want to reveal Himself .

Maybe, they are being pushed by their curiosity and that made them to think knowing Satoshi is a big deal.

Yes, it is for some people because they want to know the history behind bitcoin but right now, we are not focusing on that but we are focusing on the market.

But knowing Satoshi doesn't make me interested no more. If Satoshi reveal himself then that's not a big deal anymore for us but we are still thankful about this bitcoin that he created.

At this point, some people start to "abuse" this lack of certainty by claiming that they are satoshi, so some people believe that if satoshi explains who he is in the beginning or dig something from his post/e-mail/etc they'll find something to verify the claims.

Fortunately, we arrive at the point where someone who claims that they're satoshi is welcomed by heavy criticism, mainly because their behavior is completely different from how satoshi was. But as always, some people will believe it and fight hard for it just for the sake of winning an argument.

Curiosity and nothing more.

I'm not curious of who Satoshi is TBH and I don't care if Satoshi is still alive or dead or anything that is related to him. Its enough for me that Satoshi created a currency that might change the financial industry as a whole :). Its good that Satoshi really hid his/her/their identity and lets respect it if Satoshi want it that way.

We've seen many people claiming that they are Satoshi but nobody believed into them and it came to the point where people doesn't believe anymore in whoever will claim that they are Satoshi. It also came to the point where nobody is interested in knowing Satoshi anymore.

you can't really blame them or call them out for being too curious. at one point when I was just found out about bitcoin and learning I did become curious about who satoshi was and search around the internet who satoshi was or if someone found out who was. it's just that there are people who became obsessed with the mystery of his Identity. sometimes I even think that these people looking for Satoshi isn't even really interested in his Identity but was just interested in solving the mystery of the creator of bitcoin.

Because Satoshi Nakamoto is a mystery and it's natural for the people to be curious.
I don't care who Satoshi is,but it would be nice if we knew at least something about the creator of Bitcoin.
The lack of information leaves room for many conspiracy theories,like the one that Bitcoin was created by a bunch of CIA programmers,who are hiding behind the name Satoshi Nakamoto,so BTC is basically a CIA financial experiment.Would you believe such conspiracy theory?

I think this is a normal interest. People are curious. We've always been attracted to mystery. The lack of information about the creator of bitcoin raises a lot of questions for many. And from here different assumptions follow. Someone wants to play it safe, as there is information that Satoshi may not be such a hero as he is portrayed. And he may have leverage that is still unknown. Conspiracy theories write that Bitcoin can serve to siphon money from people. Only Satoshi himself can shed light on all his plans, and refute all bad rumors.

Because it is Satoshi Nakamoto?

For sure, there are a lot of people that are curious who Satoshi Nakamoto is but there are those like that that don't care. I mean, yeah there are those movies that just interest you without you knowing who the director is. Each of us has a different point of view on this but since Satoshi is a mystery online, that makes people more curious.

Maybe I am and it is just because I would like to send regards for him and to say thank you for this wonderful creation? I don't think it is a big deal because it possible that the others will do the same.

But for now, it is hopeless. He can't help us either. We can't ask him anymore in order to make our own Bitcoin.
Anyways, I think the time has come that we have to forget about him. What we gonna do now is to enjoy his creation.

Hi there Joe_Bauers, I have 3 reasons why people are looking for Satoshi
First; in legal matters, any creator has the rights in their invention, thus there will be a huge lawsuit that could be triggered when Satoshi will be grabbed by a Single Corp.
Second; Business, there will be a lot of company that will use Satoshi to leverage their business by using him as a new member, a founder, or a partner
Lastly; Control, Satoshi holds 1.1 million bitcoin that is greater than any bitcoin whale, thus he could manipulate market price with such a huge amount of possession.

(I'll refer Satoshi as a "he" even if it may not be correct, to avoid adding more subject pronouns)

To me, the answer is simple:  They are afraid of his wealth. If he actually mined around 1 million bitcoins, then he owns 1/21 of all coins. Whether he still has access to them or not, it'd bring a lot of fear and panic if suddenly, there were one million additional bitcoins for sale.

But, there are other people that admire him for his work, because he freed them. That man is the cause of the term "Blockchain", an innovative technology. It's pretty weird that no one will ever know who is the person who started it. But not just for the blockchain, he didn't just have the idea of a decentralized currency. He spent two years of his life, trying to implement the peer-to-peer timestamp network he was visioning combined with the proof of work. It was a work of art at its first release.

I wonder what was Satoshi's expression when he realized that it is possible to achieve it with the proof of work.

There are some reasons for which people are curious to know the real Indentity of Sathoshi Nakamoto the creator behind Bitcoin.

1) With growing adoption and popularity among the masses everyone is curious to know who was the brilliant minded programmer who has created Sathoshi as everyone like to solves the mysteries of world.

2)His pseudonym Indentity and leaving Bitcoin after 2011 has created more interest in people to find his Indentity

3)His Bitcoin holdings which are more than 1 million Bitcoins which are 5.24% of the total supply of 21 million valued at current price of $55k per coin making his net worth at $35 billion adding him in Forbes richest person list.Its really huge amount and this makes people more interested in him.

4) His creation has make him a celebrity every crypto enthusiast wants to meet with and know his more secret creation and development he has made in these years.

But still he does not want to reveal his Indentity and remain in closed doors until he wish to do so.

money is a sensitive thing. everyone needs clarity.
I know this is not a forum for conspiracy theory, but what if bitcoin was invented by a group that rules world economics all this time.
so there's a chance that we will be f*cked up "centraly" and "decentraly" ;D
people also care about satoshi, because some group might want to attack him, and intervene bitcoin.
if satoshi's identity finally reveals, I believe there's more chance for bad things to happen.

Maybe they just want to say thanks to satoshi and curious how smart he is and i actually doesn't care about that.

Most of us just curious about how satoshi looks like and want to know about the story how she creat Bitcoin.

I believe that the community wants to know who Satoshi is in order to understand who is behind the creation of crypto. And usually this information opens the door to understanding why and for what purpose all this was created. Let me give you an example. Do you believe in crypto and then you find out that its creator was an ordinary fraudster for the illegal appropriation of other people's money, what would you do after that? You would probably reconsider your attitude towards crypto and want to sell everything and return the funds as soon as possible. On the other hand, if the creator of crypto would be a person who developed a solution to the global financial problem and thanks to him the whole world will be able to use the new money, and those who are now among the first will receive a number of advantages.
Probably, this information would induce you to even more adoption of crypto and you would know 100% that you are in the right place at the right time. As the saying goes, power is in knowledge!

It natural for people to care about who Satoshi was and its something every crypto enthusiast once did when they were still newbies cause it something I have once done but after I read that left, I respect his decision and don't bother myself about it anymore.
In the situation where some people are obsessed with knowing his real identity in spite of knowing his decision, the reason behind can only two.
1) For fame. That's what happened with an investigative journalist with false claimed about knowing the real identity of Satoshi.
2) To destroy Bitcoin.

With all due respect to Satoshi, the brain of blockchain technology and the creator of bitcoin even i myself do curious who Satoshi was. I was also curious how he think of it, what made he think to create this on demand cryptocurrency, a much worth it and valuable crypto. It was such a brilliant mind like Satoshi that he come to this kind of cryptocurrency that i believe will be the solution to the diverse of fiat currency all over the world.

For every major invention in the world, we know the details of its founder. But when it comes to bitcoin, we only know the name of the founder of bitcoin ,Satoshi Nakamoto.  But we do not know any further details about him and no one has seen him physically that's why everyone is curious to know this mastermind who created bitcoin.

It's obvious that we want to know the real Satoshi Nakamoto despite of the use that he is the one who invented the most trending cryptocurrency right now which is the bitcoin and obviously it is really good yo know further details about the true identity of this inventor. Just like what the others say every great invention there is a great inventor in which we want to know why they invented it and what is the reason behind it. Everyone wants to know especially those person that becomes rich due to their invention.

A great idea of the times and an asset of high value but even as more people use it, people still don't know the author behind this curtain, it is really a funny thing and arouses everyone's curiosity, I also searched a lot about the founder of Bitcoin but only knew about the names Satoshi Nakamoto, it's not clear and specific then from time to time I give up this curiosity. The networks of countries are also unknown, we can not do anything except to accept, no matter the conspiracy behind, as long as bitcoin is still a gold mine, we will continue to participate.

It is really more of curiosity here. And I guess a lot of us really want to know the true identity of Satoshi. However, it seems that we don't know if he is still alive or not. And if he is still alive, it seems he prefers to have a quiet life. And in this regard, I will respect his preference. We don't know the real reason why he kept quiet throughout these years. Maybe in time, someone will uncover his identity. Til then, let us be contented for what we have right now and be grateful that he invented this technology.

Some people are looking for him/her who is the real Satoshi but I'm sure he is watching us and he is happy of what he invented because millions of people right now around the world helping by the Bitcoin. It is really hard to find him because it is very secure his information and even the smart person are for sure are cannot find him so it means he is very intelligent.  They have different purposes and we do not what it is.

“I wish you wouldn’t keep talking about me as a mysterious shadowy figure, the press just turns that into a pirate currency angle.  Maybe instead make it about the open source project and give more credit to your dev contributors; it helps motivate them.” Satoshi Nakamoto

Satoshi will always be a hot topic to be disscussed especially when bitcoin price is increasing a lot then there will be many people especially new comers who will be curious about Satoshi Nakamoto.

They will be curious why he/they creates bitcoin using a mysterious identity and they will be curious whether he/
she is still around here and how many bitcoins it has.

But it will just for a while, after they know bitcoin and they have bitcoin they will be focus on how to make money in bitcoin. They will be focus on how to invest well and how to trade well. Because bitcoin can give them money in a few times if they able to predict.

Knowing who satoshi is will not be beneficial in crypto right now, I guess it will only put his security at risk. I guess it is enough that he had created crypto and let him be anonymous as he chose to be left with no trace. Some people are just curious who is behind the genius work.

It cant really be avoided on where there are people who do really want to know the origin of this bitcoin invention or innovation.It did really give out such impact not only on profit making
but also into the usage that it gives to the community this is why there are people whom  do really likes to know on whose behind on this one.It might not really be affecting the market as a whole
but can be denied that once he shows up himself onto public will really be creating that hype since the creator itself did make some revelation.This isnt something that
can easily to happen but who knows if he do make out that kind of decision.

All due to curiousity I think. On the first time I have got to know Bitcoin, I have also got curious upon knowing and hearing about Satoshi Nakamoto for it have gained my interest on knowing him but since identities here in cryptocurrency industry seems to be pseudo anonymous, then I did not bother anymore for it seem that there is no big impact if ever I do know him or not. It is just a matter of an information that one person wanted to know all due out of his curious mind that is why some are seeking about him. Probably for the newbies because the oldies do not bother anymore to know him. What is just the important thing is that no matter who he is, he have done a great thing that benefits us all up to this point of time and possible for the brighter future ahead of us.

You can stop people to know whos actually Satoshi, he is a celebrity now and they keep digging to find who is it and might take some pictures together. But that curiosity leads to nothing as this person leaves no traces to see, he is really anonymous.

A lot of rich people pretending he was the creator of Bitcoin (satoshi) but sorry, they failed to claim it and it is that because nobody could prove that he was the real creator. I'm not sure if this person was still alive because if that possible he's still around, he might be out now and tell his story just like other big and successful personality does.

There is no concrete date on when a wheel is created and it may be 4000 years ago and it is hard to determine who invented the wheel but bitcoin is a decade old and it is not a good comparison. Even if you wanted to know the inventor of wheel it is an impossible task but that is not the situation with Satoshi as he can always pop up right now and prove that he invented bitcoin by signing a signature digitally from one of his earlier wallets.

The confusion was always there since everyone confused about who is the real Satoshi and how this technology running behind this invention.
But the fact is that even we found the real Satoshi it will never change the Bitcoin price, we as the community and the crypto enthusiast who hold the price of Bitcoin including the institutional investors the recently adopting Bitcoin.

Why not we don't respect the decision of the Bitcoin creator hiding permanently?  Satoshi designed Bitcoin anonymously as a peer-to-peer payment method.  This is to make sure for Satoshi that Bitcoin will remain decentralized creation.

I truly salute Satoshi even I don't know, people now have benefited from what Satoshi's created.

I think Satoshi knew that Bitcoin had the potential to disempower some of the most powerful organizations on the planet so chose to remain anonymous. We should respect that

Not everyone cares about Satoshi Nakamoto's identity, because I don't think you will get anything by knowing Satoshi Nakamoto's identity.
Why don't we use our only 24 hours a day for something much more useful than focusing on finding traces of people who don't want to be found.
Maybe some people are really curious, so they never tire of searching for Satoshi Nakamoto's identity. Which maybe all the things he does end up
in vain, fortunately I'm not someone who is obsessed with that kind of thing.

It's just normal because again from the spread of the news and videos like mostly the top hidden person with a high earning also the bitcoin comes up into over 60k USD for sure there are a lot of people who got curious about the bitcoin the same with the creator of this coin.

Well is there something if we discover Satoshi? I guess it will change for something. Also, I think Satoshi does not want to handle too much responsibility.

This topic will always be periodically raised, since new people will come to the cryptocurrency for a long time to come, who will always be interested to know how bitcoin appeared and who created it. Satoshi Nakamoto did the right thing to want to remain anonymous. Thus, no one can monopolize the right to bitcoin and it will forever remain a creation of the people.
However, the mystery is always interesting. Therefore, we will hear many more various assumptions about the personality of Satoshi Nakamoto.

I agree that we should respect but does it answer the question about why do people care who satoshi is? I think it is a no-brainer that satoshi wants to be anonymous because satoshi knows that he/she is going to be attacking conglomerates and the established financial institutions. I think the reason that people care about satoshi's identity being revealed is because of plain curiosity, they want the mystery to be unraveled like how you want to know the trick behind the magic.

There are several reasons :

1. Speculators know Satoshi has more than 1 000 000 coins and he/she or they can dump those coins on the market to crash the Bitcoin price.

2. Governments (Puppet masters) wants to know, because they want to prosecute Satoshi for creating a currency and going up against them.

3. People want to know, because they fear Satoshi might be some Pedophile or mass murderer and they do not want to support that.  ::)

4. Natural curiosity (If you see a cave, you want to know what is in there)

5. The media wants to know, because they can sensationalize the whole thing.

6. Criminals want to know, because they want to get their hands on Satoshi's coins.  >:(

These are just some of the reasons, but I think it will explain why some people are so obsessed with Satoshi Nakamoto  ::)

Nowadays, we used to know every single detail about everything. So if we do not know who is the real person who created Bitcoin it makes us uncomfortable. If we did not know who established Tesla we might think that maybe some aliens, as we think great pyramids were created by aliens. So it will be always a topic of curiosity among Bitcoiners and others.
At the same time, if something bad happens we should find a scapegoat. In this case, there is not anyone that we can blame on.

Maybe he was but it was not the reason for this creation and he's probably not thinking that Bitcoin will have this current value and market demand.
He never comes out to the public and talks about himself to the camera as he wasn't able to make this appreciation that could bring himself to a higher risk. If he is still alive or anyone knows about him, he might be on the hunt now as some government leaders and businessmen hated Bitcoin.

That much better to keep anonymous all the time and to make himself safe.

What a way to put it as to why it doesn't seem important to know, @ "at least, raising a beer to them". Well, its really of no importance as to whom these persons are but there immerse contribution to humanity will forever be a memory of them and thats the best they can ever have. A name at times if often better than a face. In the days of odd before the advent of camera and perfected art, a name Is all they had.

Just that, most people are still scared of bitcoin and as such, knowing the pioneer or creator of bitcoin would give them some sort of a reassurance towards the currency. In times of chaos, a word or two from him or her is all the people need to be hopeful on the best once more but no, it wouldn't be for the best. The best is in what we have now, each other, each crypto enthusiast strengthening ourselves based on how we perceive and recognise the threats to the system. Its all we need.

Just think of Elon Musk, even now there are people who doesn't know about Elon Musk and the leading personalities. When some interesting news comes out relative to leading personalities and innovators, everyone have wish to know about them. This is the reason why people care about the personality Satoshi.

Curiosity actually. It's like solving a mystery but this one is pointless.
Others could be pursuing questions like why does the price of Bitcoin become too unstable.

For me, I don't. Just like what DannyHamilton said, most don't care. Let the person/s be because they're not gonna go here just to say something.

I know right, i'm pretty confused as well, seeing the topic of satoshi will appear from one time to another, people just don't seem to get tired of it. And most of the time, the guess are ridiculous and have no basis at all.
i mean, yeah sure it might be nice to know who satoshi is. But i guess he has his own reason why he doesn't come out even after all the fuss, maybe he want his privacy to be kept or other things? who knows? I guess if that's the case, then we just have to respect his decision and move on, don't try too hard to find out about his identity anymore.

I think it will be taught in some universities, if we research a cryptocurrency we should know who their team is. As well as bitcoin, some people do research on satosi nakamoto to be taught to the next generation.

people care about satoshi nakamoto because his discovery was very controversial against bitcoin. this is a good discovery right now, he creates something virtual but it is very valuable, I think he is someone who is very extraordinary

I guess maybe some of them sees it as a fun thing to do, it’s like a puzzle to them so they keep playing it for the fun lol, and also they would like to be the ones that discovered the secret of who the creator of Bitcoin is. I just don’t really know whatever the reason is that is pushing them to keep digging for who Satoshi Nakamoto is. Well there are still some of us who don’t care about all that.

Satoshi Nakamoto has decided to stay private and not even touching the huge amount of coins stored on his address, so it’s best they let him be. He’s not like other developers that will always dump their bags once the coins they created has started growing in price.

People care about what the media tells them to care about.

The media tells people to care about this because they can churn out an endless stream of poorly researched speculative articles.

Of course, it's irrelevant-- same goes for a lot of thing that get attention.

The only interesting thing about the subject is the thoroughly epic scam being perpetrated by wright, -- but "journalists" won't touch it because he'll sue them too and defending the truth isn't all that compatible with the cheap and mindless writing to click stream business model.

Well, for sure they are just curious about the one who created the very successful bitcoin, they just curious about the looks and how smart he is, the same thing with others, I also curious about Satoshi Nakamoto because of what we have made with the community, just want to thank him for everything because he made a lot of people earn money and make our life convenient in some circumstances.

Let them be curious and confused by a genius and mysterious person named Satoshi Nakamoto whose truth has not been accurately revealed so far, and they just want to know about how bitcoin is made and so on.
we can only enjoy the benefits that are very useful for our lives and can help in everything from that mysterious and great person, like the Angel only knows names and stories which are not necessarily accurate but what he creates is very useful for everyone.

Satoshi Nakamoto has long been sought after by many people and they want to meet and chat with Satoshi Nakamoto. He (Satoshi Nakamoto) is a very genius. If his identity is known, many companies want to work with him and even become a person protected by the state.

Somehow it is getting that domino effect to people.
More and more are now getting curious to who Satoshi is/was.
I am gonna be honest, I tried to look up in Wikipedia on how many people claimed to be him/her, but now it seems like I shouldn't care too much anymore to the real identity of Satoshi.

At first, very few people recognized Bitcoin, so no one cared about Satoshi Nakamoto who developed Bitcoin. Later, as Bitcoin was held by more and more people, everyone was shocked by the upward trend of Bitcoin. Only when I think of Satoshi Nakamoto, who created Bitcoin in the first place.

before we play inside the wheel, isn't it better if we know who created the wheel, why the wheel was created, what is the reason for the wheel there, and how to play it, so that playing safer, it would be nice if we have to know the reasons for that reason, right?

That is why people who play bitcoin inevitably have to know who Satoshi Nakamoto is and the purpose of creating bitcoin, but unfortunately for now the information about Satoshi Nakamoto is still very limited.

why do people care Yes, because the genius of Satoshi Nakamoto created bitcoin made many people profitable, and this is a step of appreciation from many people for caring about Satoshi Nakamoto. besides that, the factor of Satoshi Nakamoto's steps is always awaited by many people about what things will be carried out and this makes many people wait because it affects the price of bitcoin.

You answered it already in your OP which is curiosity, this is a normal human instinct when something they don't know or unfamiliar appears in front of them, they want to know what it is or become familiar with it, in this case, the identity of satoshi which is still a mystery, people want to know who is the person behind it because they want to know everything there is to know about bitcoin so they will go lengths to find the identity of satoshi. My advice to those people, stop doing it and always remember to not meet your heroes.

Well, sometimes it's just an obsession and there are still many who can't control it...
I don't really care about who 'satoshi' is, I just care about Bitcoin. I'm not ungrateful to Satoshi, it's just that finding out who is a satoshi will only be a waste of time, the limited information about him is really difficult.

But the difference is that happened thousands of years ago so it is a given that such information has been lost to history as there are many great inventions of the past which have been lost completely or that survived but we have no idea who made them, however this is the 21st century and we do not know who created bitcoin, not only that we know that satoshi has a fortune in bitcoins and he has not touched them, what kind of person does that? Without a doubt the mystery of the identity of satoshi is probably going to be one of the biggest unsolved mysteries of humanity.

I think it is just curiousity for most of us we just want to know who is the real creator.

I believe people just want to know out of curiosity. Personally I do not see a reason as to why I should give myself sleepiness nights and stressful days trying to find out who Satoshi is. This is even funnier judging by the fact that Satoshi has determined to remain anonymous. It begs the question, 'why look for someone that doesn't want to be found?'
When people get worked up about who Satoshi is, what I tell them is that they don't need it. Let's remain grateful for the gift of bitcoin that Satoshi gave but let's move on. Let's just try to utilize the gift to its full potential

The reason could be that people know the creators of other cryptocurrencies in the market but they don't know the creator of the top cryptocurrency. And I think people are really right about thinking like that. The curiosity is increasing as time goes on.

It's no doubt the biggest mystery of 21st century and many are surprised that why satoshi remain anonymous. Why he didn't show up? I sometime think that satoshi is seeing this all happening and has the authority to manipulate bitcoin blockchain code.

Quoting gmaxwell, IMHO knowing who satoshi was would be definitely irrelevant.
I do not care about his gender, I do not care if he was a bloody brit or crazy yankee as the only thing I care about is the actual idea of bitcoin he gifted us and the fact that he was able to unite 30+ yrs of developments into one sigle brilliant thing.
That is what I care about.

In my opinion not all people care too much who really Satoshi is. But of course in most cases people are interested in the invention mostly, and in the personality may be they are just curious and that is all. Banal curiosity. Those who are interested mostly in the Bitcoin and its nature and future destiny they do not care about the real or fake personality of Satoshi. And in case using a wheel every day a person do not even remember the name of its creator. The same is with Bitcoin and Nakamoto.

That is the natural behavior of humans regards the invention of something very important that has a special meaning for many.
At least for me it's common to wonder who invented things that I enjoy doing very much, like games I play, music I listen to, architecture style I contemplate, etc... I ask myself, who had such a brilliant inspiration to be able to realize that? The same goes with bitcoin.

All care to the point that why he or they gone without tracks for over the years also people are so interested to know on whats current life status of bitcoin creator. Maybe there are other who just like the technology but majority is seeking the information about him/her thats why there are so many scattered fake information about him and its always posted on the news because whenever someone says they are Satoshi many people will get curious to see if he is the creator.

just out of curiosity only. people are curious who is satoshi. that's all. human beings like to know some personal stuffs of another person esp those who are living mysteriously and left a very vital mark to humanity. people will not stop to look for satoshi. more conspiracy theories on the table.  ;D ;D ;D
remember last year, even McAfee said he is 99% certain who Satoshi is  (https://cointelegraph.com/news/john-mcafee-knows-who-satoshi-nakamoto-is)... lol

And these things will continue to pile up because people's curiosity would really be continuous until it would really be resolved or known out which we had even some new satoshi related topics once again on this forum but what are the common reaction we do get from the community? This is mostly been ignored.

We might be interested but its better to leave if he decided to be anonymous until this very time and just watching anonymously on how his creation did really
succeed in terms of financial system.

Every discovery is somewhat interesting excluding with those bullshit McAfee claims.  :D

People are just curious, that's intrinsic to all humans. Satoshi is also the first to have come up with crypto via Bitcoin generation so I suppose there will be some token of personal gratitude if we ever find out who he/them are. Nothing more than that. We just like knowing things  ;D

The answer is simple because Satoshi Nakamoto is the creator of Bitcoin, therefore a lot of people are curious about who is the person who
was so smart at creating Bitcoin. Moreover, Bitcoin made a new breakthrough in the world of finance by providing alternative financial transactions
without involving Banks. Not to mention Bitcoin whose price is getting higher, for all these reasons, it is very natural that many people are curious
about the identity of Satoshi Nakamoto.

Being curious is not really caring who he is.

Like I want to know who he is out of pure curiosity but he could be whoever he wants and It would not change my mind about bitcoin. You must be curious how much money your neighbors have but do you care? Probably not because it doesn't really matter. It doesn't change your life or anything. Knowing Satoshi's identity also wouldn't.

We're both bitcoin users and that the reason why many of us ask who satoshi nakamoto is, maybe because they are curious about who is the bitcoin inventors, maybe want to give thanks to them/ him for his invention because it's very helpful for us who use it to make our life better, and that might the reason why they are curious to know who satoshi is/ are.

I like your analogy, because knowing Satoshi Nakamoto's identity does not change our lives or our view of Bitcoin. The most important thing is
how we must use Bitcoin as well as possible, in order to change our lives for the better. Rather than wasting time trying to find out Satoshi
Nakamoto's identity, it was a waste of time. Because many people have tried to find clues to find Satoshi Nakamoto's identity, but all of them
ended up failing.

Indeed. In addition, it would be great to make a picture in our mind whenever someone is talking about him.
Right now it's still blank or if they are talking about him I would see the Bitcoin logo. BTC
Just that and it's kind of awkward.

I doubt we will ever find that out. We don't even know if he is dead now or he is hiding using another name.
He made Bitcoin and he is a genius. He knows what will be the consequences once the government gets a slightest hint about him.

It is characteristic of all mankind as a whole - to know. Therefore, this is not surprising. Crypto traders want to know who their hero is.

I don't really care about it. Yeah, sure it'll be interesting to find out who he is but it's not a big deal.

Do you think that we are not curious about it ? Infect ,every one want to know the real satoshi nakamoto who has idea about bitcoin as satoshi give us this cool crypto currency which changed  this current worlds and it will keep change near future ..  But i am confuse still why should he hidden from us ? Is there has some hidden code available to him which can vanish the bitcoin existence or what ? Do you have any explanation about it ?

Been curious about the identity of Satoshi should be normal. It brings clearer picture of blockchain technology and  enlighten others who would love to know how the whole technology came about. For me I love to buy knowledge. If I can deep deeper to find out his original identity I would do that. Not just for knowledge sake, but so as to approach the appreciate the technology behind the digital currency which has dominated the entire world

I think mostly the ones that care about the idea of cryptocurrency don't care much about the identity and rumors going around it.
The main reasons why people express interest in Satoshi's identity are that Bitcoin is a revolutionary invention, much more than the wheel, I think, and it's not something as common or something we use in everyday life, it's still relatively new and the more there's talk about it on media - the more people want to know.
Also, the fact that Satoshi conceals his identity makes it more desirable, wouldn't you agree? Imagine if no one knew who invented Facebook, people would certainly wonder.

Until now, Satoshi Nakamoto true identity is still a big mystery, Many parties want to reveal who Satoshi Nakamoto really is, but true identity can be said to be highly speculative.  There has been much debate as to who this very mysterious figure actually was.  There are those who assume that Satoshi can be one person or a group of people, He could still be alive or is dead.  But without solid evidence, we will never know who the real Satoshi Nakamoto is.

Most of us here don't care who Satoshi Nakamoto is, even though satoshi didn't invent the blockchain, we have to thank this one person, because he was the first to create a decentralized currency on top of the blockchain technology that has benefited  us to this day.

Actually you've made a point. Who knows how many things there are out there that we still don't know the inventors of them. But people are still getting curious about it anyway. For example, we know who invented Ethereum or many other well-known cryptocurrencies. But we have no idea about Bitcoin. Actually we have some ideas but we can't still prove anything.

I am just curious on who is the creator nothing more than it,
I just want to know but not to the point that I would really spend so much time finding who is behind the name.
I would rather spend my time on something that would be useful to me.
If the creator doesn't want to reveal itself then we should just accept it and respect it.

I think it's a form of respect and admiration for the person behind the success of BTC and there's nothing wrong with it. It's like how did he come up with the idea of BTC and Cryptocurrency? Is there any story behind it? just like how Newton comes up with the idea of gravity. He's truly a genius after all and without him BTC/Cryptocurrency is just a possibility.

There are two main reasons for that;

1. Good reason - you know, like meet and greet, asking questions about his personal life, where did he went, how did he make Bitcoin, etc...

2. Bad reason - Like they will threaten him and force him to give all of his Bitcoin (if he's holding some), and they might want also to control Bitcoin if it possible, so they are going to ask Satoshi Nakamoto about it, or any worst possible scenarios.

it might just be impossible to see him though.  if you have been in this forum for a while, you'd see countless times a thread about users trying to find him and analyzes his posts just to have clues. he seems to have covered all his tracks and not even trying to withdraw any of his coins to keep his privacy. he is an important person in the history of finance. it's interesting to know the person behind Bitcoin creation but i hope he won't be found. 

Hello everybody. A person is always worried about something - this is a creature that is sometimes interested in such things that will never be useful in life. It is no coincidence that the demand for tabloids is several times higher than the demand for even the most conscientious newspaper. Admit it to yourself - one of the first things that came to mind when you heard about Bitcoin is who created such a miracle that instantly rises in value. Bitcoin is a hero of our time, when somewhere they report about a hero, I want to know everything about him.

For one I want to know who is the man behind the technology that made many people millionaires, including himself. He made a revolutionary way for people to send digital assets around the world in a blink of an eye, in a push of a button. Without any third party regulator that maintains some kind of system. You can do this anonymously and without anything that would identify you as a person. That alone is an achievement and I want to thank Satoshi for that.

I'm sure everyone who is new to Bitcoin will be curious about the figure of Satoshi Nakamoto, because maybe many people are amazed
by Bitcoin, therefore curiosity arises to know its creator. But after starting for a long time in the crypto world, this curiosity will diminish by itself.
Since they would have realized that there were very few leads left by Satoshi Nakamoto, so finally they will understand that Satoshi
Nakamoto's whereabouts are not known and looking for him will only be a waste of time.

You already said it 'curiosity' making people  want to know the genius mind behind the great technology right in front of them, btc is not just your average invention (appreciate other inventions as well) it is way beyond that, many people have come to realise the uniqueness of it and are giving their support on a daily basis,
It is very natural for people to want to know, I wouldn't mind to know too, I mean it is the same thing most investors would do before supporting any project right?. 
But in this case, btc has gain such huge amount of trust that nearly everyone don't bother about the person/people behind the masterpiece.

It is all about curiosity, that is what I want to fulfill on myself why I want to know who Satoshi is, some also want to thank him and congratulate him for the things he has made for the world of crypto. Whenever there is someone who amazed us with something, just like the curiosity we have when someone did something we cant. I don't even surprise if there is a group of people who keeps on researching the story of Satoshi Nakamoto and keeps on finding him. Everyone or most of us want to know the image or the physical character of Satoshi.

Don't you wanna Know the Name of Your Employer in case? Because Satoshi created the Thing that made us all having our freedom in financial aspect and also Gives us chance to make Money.
Which are those evidences?
