Bitcoin Forum

I’m just kind of curious how many people around here have been around long enough to have spoken to Satoshi, and what your experience was like. I am just fascinated about the whole thing. It’s beyond amazing Satoshi is still anonymous, so it makes me wonder what he was like when speaking with them. I’m guessing not too many people here were around for those days. This is one thing I’ve always wanted to hear Theymos talk about. Imagine having helped Satoshi build bitcoin, having private messages etc…what an experience!

Even Theymos doesn't know the identity. He have helped through the forum. Even now he might be around the forum with some other name going through different discussion taking place about the future of bitcoin. Some might've participated on random discussions, but never thought of Satoshi being this genius. More users of his time weren't active on the forum.

To the best of my knowledge, Theymos actually had closer contact with Satoshi. However, only in relation to this Forum and Bitcoin...

Satoshi is also the one who started this forum. His profile is the "User ID # 3".
The first real user profile on bitcointalk! Because "User ID # 2" does not exist and "User ID #1" is an admin account that is not used.

Whether Satoshi has ever met with someone properly, I can not imagine. I think this has always been through chats and forum posts.
There are also some other forum users who have been around since the beginning, and have actively helped Satoshi in the further development around Bitcoin.
But I don't think anyone really got to know him privately.

Satoshi saw himself only as a mean to an end....

Adam Back is Satoshi. I plan on doing a write-up about this.

I hate to post something like this without all the evidence, but Satoshi actually wasn't that good at keeping his identity a secret.

your wasting your time. he is not
he pretends to be and gets his friends to hint that he is. but he isnt
he is the parrellel of CSW.. a wanna satoshi.
adam back has not tried to go full CSW, but he has tried to lay out some hints via his friends that he could be, ultimately to pretend his blockstream company owns bitcoins

but ultimately the truth is, he is not satoshi.

the person that invented bitcoin took many idea's from many people. not in some active consultation group. but more of a patch work of idea's from different people from the 1990's to 2008. and the person that is satoshi patched them together into a unique and inventive and inspiring form.
one of these patches was adam backs idea, like many other peoples ideas. but adam back was not involved in bitcoin nor were the others.. adam didnt know his idea was being used until satoshi contacted him to inform him his idea was being referenced as a part of bitcoin after satoshi already put the pieces together

adams idea is not bitcoin. nor was it much unique. bitcoin could have still been invented if satoshi referenced another persons similar idea. (principles of hashcash were not unique to adam back)

I'm pretty sure like only 0.0001% of Bitcointalk's userbase has somewhat interacted with the Satoshi account, and they've probably already stopped using Bitcointalk as it's arguable that there are better places like Twitter to be talking about Bitcoin; or the fact that they're too rich now to actually care lol.

If we still have the users who were part of this community on its early stage, I'm sure 1 or 2 of them talk to Satoshi and didn't think that he will disappear and never be seen in the forum after 10 years because if they knew, they would have asked him so many things before he decided to stay in the unknown by disappearing. It would be added to history if someone here post some conversations between him and Satoshi.

I feel this person is just another Craig, does he have some solid proof to prove that he is definitely Satoshi? Because if not then you're wasting time doing an article about this person, I mean almost anyone can claim to be Satoshi, it's just a matter of how persistent and pathological of a liar you are to convince the world that you are what you claim you are. Regarding, talking to Satoshi though, I feel like there's not a lot of active users that have done some communication with Satoshi, I think it's a big honor if you've received a PM from him but the closest thing that I think has happened is the thread discussions.

The CEO of a parasitic centralized company and an advertiser of centralized shitcoins including scams can not be Satoshi Nakamoto on principle. Not to mention that it has already been debunked years ago despite some people still wanting to push this agenda.

Well if the original people who were talking to satoshi were all on mailing lists and on forums like this one (which I guess was modern for the time) then I highly doubt they are on Twitter where it looks rubbish and noisy.

In my imagination these guys are on other super deep web layers talking to each other on encrypted channels that look just like cypherpunk forums of the old days.

No so many would come up with this that they have interaction with the original creator of the Bitcoin when he was active on the forum before completely vanishing and going off radar to becoming one of the most exciting mystery that has been unlocked for years.As said above @theymos or some high rank members who are early bitcoin contributors might have a word with him but not many on the forum got this opportunity.But still we know everything about his creation bitcoin.

Not every single person that somewhat interacted with Satoshi on Bitcointalk is anonymous, and the likes of Gavin Andresen, Jeff Garzik, Dan Larimer, and even the late Hal Finney himself are on Twitter.

Also, the quality of your Twitter feed highly depends on who you follow. So if you see rubbish, then you're probably following rubbish peeps.

yes, I indeed spoke to Satoshi many times and asked him about his plan to reveal his identity to the world!

In my dreams, obviously!  :D

On a serious note, I don't think anyone here knows his/her real identity. I know Hal Finney had a contact with him during the initial days of bitcoin, but I doubt he knows the identity of Satoshi to be honest! He had few email conversations with Satoshi but the real identity is not known. Satoshi is not a stupid man, whoever is in touch with him, is unaware of his real identity. The contact was through emails only!

I'm definitely following more rubbish people than good people, and a lot of it is also because I followed rubbish ICOs in the past. And also I haven't updated any of my social media for about 2 years because it gets noisy. Much more peaceful to read on this forum. I do check every now and then but twitter does show me the most popular posts and it can be hard to ignore that rubbish posts are the more popular ones at certain times.

It's just either you clean your following, or create a new Twitter account for you to have a clean slate.

Quick tip: Definitely don't follow the "influencers" if you don't want rubbish. Instead, follow the devs and the builders!

I do not think that by creating such a topic and question today, we will see many new faces.
Any newcomer who claims to have known Satoshi is perceived as a troll and a liar. If some old member of this forum tells about an acquaintance, then I am sure that he too will be subjected to massive mistrust and harsh interrogation. Therefore, it seems to me that everyone who knew and communicated with Satoshi told about this for a long time, and it is naive to think that today we will meet the "dinosaur" of the forum, about which no one knows anything yet.

For some reason I think that there's none people who actually had interaction with Satoshi left out here, I might be wrong though, but come on, they all should have probably have their own companies by now  :D

If we take for example this thread from 2010 - Proof-of-work difficulty increasing (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=43.0) ,only 4-5 people who then discussed with Satoshi are active today or were active this year.


It would have been a special experience for sure, but Satoshi was just a man, not some supernatural being with special powers. If Satoshi is still alive and reading this forum, I think he is amazed that people are still so obsessed with him, even more than with Bitcoin sometimes.

Satoshi is a very anonymous man on this planet wherien no one can find him if someone wants to give a rewards for creating bitcoin. And for sure only people who claim their self "the only one satoshi" were can be found in the internet even in public places.. Lol
For me it's very impossible now to locate that real creator, because if he has intention to display his real information probably it already happened at the first place that bitcoin become a very first successful decentralized asset around the world.. But that man wants a quite and peaceful life.  ;D

I doubt that you can come with a proper evidence.
However, you can ask nicely Adam Back to sign a message that, amongst other things contains the date of signing and his name. Of course, signed with one of known "Satoshi addresses".



Maybe not spoken, but discussed on the forum - there may be a few, but I doubt that they're still active here, they have their businesses now.
Hence, instead of asking here, maybe you can gather a list of users from the early topics.


Really? Most probably those who knew him as Satoshi have never spoken with him face-to-face, instead they've used forum(s) or e-mail(s).

I believe that very very few people have ever chatted with Satoshi in this forum.
I once watched a documentary from bitcoin entitled "The Rise Of Bitcoin". It's a perfect documentary  film to watch for those who are curious about who Satoshi had spoken to and why he disappeared, as well as various kinds of bitcoin history.

Thanks everyone for the responses.  I just thought it would be a fun experiment to see if anyone around here who actually reads through this main bitcoin discussion channel had ever spoken to Satoshi before.  I of course figured that Theymos is one of very few who had interacted with him that is still active on this forum today.  I just can't imagine having had such a unique experience such as Theymos has had.  Truly legendary stuff.


Nick Szabo & Hal

How about Gavin Andreson and Adam Back? I am sure they were in touch with him...as a matter of fact Satoshi reached out to Back before the publication of the white paper.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=101601

I am new to this forum and if you look at the existing DT ranks, I see satoshi who was active in this forum several years ago.
I personally only know about his name and his extraordinary stories without being able to know or have ever chatted with him.
lucky people who have been on this forum for a long time and have chatted with him

If Adam Back was satoshi it would have been confirmed all over the world. Satoshi's identity still remains anonymous till date, I would say even Theymos still haven't meet with satoshi  except on the forum and the day satoshi becomes public bitcoin would lose its decentralized nature because many world power would likely force him into centralizing bitcoin. His anonymous identity is the power bitcoin has

  Totally agree!

Perhaps only a few people remaining here in the forum have spoken, or at least commented and replied to Satoshi's forum posts, one of them being theymos, of course. Only a few at the time had the privilege to exchange insights and comments with the guy, and satoshi left too soon and has not been seen or heard ever again. A quick look at satoshi's forum posts and you can see that most people whom he interacted with aren't really active on the forum anymore, but it's really interesting to see that there are still some guys that are around and still posting every now and then, like the core devs and other guys who were more interested in the code rather than the idea of bitcoin back then.

There's a lot of people who keep digging and searching for who is Satoshi and there's a few of them claiming the real Satoshi even though they can't able sign message the first Bitcoin wallet which a proof of evidence that they are the one.  Why not we didn't respect Satoshi's decision to become anonymous, and comment above was right, being anonymous is the power of Bitcoin to maintain the decentralized nature of Bitcoin.

Who knows maybe there is, but not publically posted it here those who spoken with Satoshi before and having an interaction with Satoshi.  I believed this user Hal (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=2436), was spoken to Satoshi before because he is knowledgeable about Bitcoin and Blockchain networks.

I though the same too. At least they have conversations just around the forum comments, private messages, and things like that. Beyond that nothing else or a physical contact to be precise.
Though there were actually a few forum members who has been here since the beginning who made an exchange of comments with Satoshi, but it's really amazing to hear stories from people who actually made a conversation with Satoshi through private messages.

I've read that themos had a chat with satoshi but they only talked about the bitcointalk forum or they've talked about other things about bitcoin only the two of them know the truth but for sure themos had an amazing experience being able to discuss with satoshi.

Probably some might encounter seeing Satoshi and i think those set of group of people that started this platform in 2009 when bitcoin is first introduce might be in any other way come contact to Satoshi during that period, but i think many of have left the community and maybe the remaining once is not that active, but believe before he Left the community he heard conversation or interaction with many people, which theymos is one of them, shall all these is assumptions.

it's really hard to know who the satoshi is, as some sources say if they don't know who the satoshi really is, what their background is. I don't think satoshi will have an impact, because it is very influential with the security and safety of the bitcoin coin itself. many hackers who decide to destroy the creators of bitcoin, because behind the background there will be a force that can bring down the bitcoin market in the future.

Meh. Surely this forum is the only way that people had "direct contact" with satoshi though I can recall some thread I read couple months back that there was an AMA of founder of this forum and s/he has direct contact with satoshi through email.
I would just leave it as that, since either way there is no point of it anyway.

Satoshi Nakamoto's identity and whereabouts are unknown, because Satoshi himself is good at covering up tracks, so that they are not easily
tracked. Satoshi realized it was very dangerous if he revealed his identity, there must be some who want Bitcoin dead. So for the sake of Bitcoin's
safety, it's exactly what Satoshi has done all this time by disappearing without a trace, Bitcoin's future is much safer if Satoshi's identity is unknown.
It's better if we just focus on Bitcoin, instead of spending our time figuring out Satoshi's identity. Then I also believe that people who have been on
this forum for a long time don't seem to know Satoshi's identity, that's why Satoshi's identity is difficult to reveal, and Satoshi can keep his identity
secret for years without being exposed.

That period i believe Satoshi did not show himself until he quit from the community and handle it over to the theymos, while some people interactes with him like the same approach we interactes with old members we know that is ahead of us.

That is exactly what i explained here initially, that many people might heard conversation directly to Satoshi through private message, but  are not privileged to see him in person, it assumed like the way some us communicate with loyceV and The pharmacist and other  numerous members to be mention, but we don't have the privilege to see them, but we can ask them question and if them wish they can respond to you. No one have testify that he or her have seen Satoshi even theymos.

I'm not sure if they are still here in the forum after a long time, for sure early investors who are already successful have quit using the forum and enjoy life just like Satoshi did. Being anonymous is the best solution to enjoy it, if they'll speak about satoshi, then we might get interested in them and people think that they have bitcoin holdings as 10 dollars would but a lot of bitcoins that time.

I guess we can only ask for Theymos statement, as he is the most reliable person to share his experience.  :)

maybe they are old enough right now, just like what happened to Phinnaeus Gage which already dead, or maybe too old enough and can't able to read words on a computer screen. I don't think theymos was there at the time sotoshi was active on the forum if you will check the old post from satoshi to a welcome forum message. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5, up to topic number 10 it's all about satoshi writing on this forum but no one has replied in the same year which is 2009, and satoshi stop posting on the forum 1 year later in 2010. I don't think there is someone who contacted him personally.

I think you are mistaken. If you check in their post history, you will see that the two of them had a good deal of interaction. Like, for example, in this thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1347.0

Am I the only one who finds amussing the idea of satoshi using a Newbie account to participate in a discreet way and lurk to see if his beloved community is behaving and has evolved the way he wanted it to?

Yes, you are the only one. That would never happen. LOL!

I also wondered who really Satoshi is, does the persona we should address is appropriate as he or her, I was quite late joining here in forum and I haven't seen any thread that Satoshi have had replied or posted so all I have knew about Satoshi is through other person's statement but most of them saying that they are not also sure about the information that they know about Satoshi. So, I would also glad to read a reply from Theymos here in this thread since he/she was the most reliable person the information may came from.

we don't even Know theymos identity so who knows if he really know or not Satoshi?  ;D but of course no one will admit nor reveal if they truly knows the Great creator , this is the reason why those who pretend to be satoshi is obviously known as faker.
I have this same thought ever since , as i have also mentioned this in the past that He might be here pretending to be another account just to communicate in forum.

whats your idea about when hes going to reveal his identity? like what should happen that make him do that? or maybe never?

Hopefully, that can happen but I am not sure if Theymos will do that since that is about the privacy of Satoshi, although Theymos himself does not know the real Satoshi (or he did).

But I guess Satoshi is still watching on here from somewhere or he/she/they ask some people to guard this forum and still working on bitcoin and blockchain without us knowing who they are. There is not much information about Satoshi himself, so we cannot find him, his real name or else. So it will still be a mystery buried until he shows himself to us, which I doubt.

I want to talk to Satoshi Nakomoto but it's impossible considering that Satoshi is like a ghost. He disappeared without a trace. We all only heard his name but didn't know his real identity. Currently, people around the world are asking who is Satoshi Nakomoto? and it has no answer until now.

Nice example. I was reading through the posts to see if someone has referenced it way back to the 2010's threads. It makes whole lot of sense since at the time only way to interact was through this forum. I am not sure whats the history here about "how the take-over took placed for the forum", but that might have been one of the instances when Satoshi had to speak with many qualified candidates so that they can run this ahead. Theymos obviously is one of those who might have been pretty close to them. Idk, may be staff members might have great deal of idea.

Who knows they might be partying every weekend with Satoshi and discussing how peeps are crazy about him and how they go nuts about him. Lolz.

Or even now he's laughing watching us talk about it every day on this forum. Maybe he could disguise himself as who he wanted to be without worrying about his identity being exposed. If I were him, perhaps revealing who he really was would be dangerous for the FBI to target. Lol

On the contrary, I speak with Satoshi every day because I make use of Bitcoin and also participate in Bitcoin conversation  ;D

On a serious note. There are only two people that I am sure have had an in-depth conversation with Satoshi before his/her disappearance and they are Theymos and Sirius because they have both worked with him and from Theymos's statement this forum was created by Satoshi and Sirius (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=455867.msg5069851#msg5069851). However, some people that can still explain how it was like when speaking with Satoshi are 2double0, Lucius, pooya87, etc because they are members of this forum before Satoshi disappeared.

it's not about being obsessed with him, he made a something that helped me and helped a lot of people and he is one of the reasons this this technology people are using in crypto started and it is developing constantly, so i wouldn't call it an obsession for me it's just me being a fan of what he did, and if i had the chance i would love to talk to him or even just take a quick picture with him, and that's about it.

If you have no evidence, why are you brave to write this post?
You are so funny, this is just like another fake satoshi joke.  :D
Anyway, you have stated that remaining anonymous is important for Satoshi: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5349129.0. Why do you try to reveal him now?  ???

Yeah, mate nobody but a fool  or those who want that negative fame like Craig Wright would step forward to admit that they spoke to Satoshi knowingly.

There is no way that guy or group of guys spent their early days on here just for the sake of conversation. Satoshi seems like the type of person/s that is driven and seeking to share knowledge rather than a person/s chatting on places like this.

The way I see it, despite the question being intriguing, from a realistic standpoint there is no point in even discussing such topic, but hey everyone loves to voice their opinion...

I was also one of those people who wanted to talk to Satoshi Nakamoto, but I knew that would be impossible. Because as we all know, Satoshi
Nakamoto disappeared without a trace until now, and looks like he will never appear again. At first I was curious, and tried to find out the identity
and whereabouts of Satoshi Nakamoto. But after my attempts failed, I started to stop finding out Satoshi Nakamoto's identity. Since I'm starting
to realize that finding out Satoshi Nakamoto's identity isn't important, I'd rather just focus on Bitcoin. Which Bitcoin can give me profit and can change
my economy for the better. Just let Satoshi Nakamoto live his life in peace, because if his identity is exposed, he will lose his privacy. Perhaps it was
for the best that Satoshi Nakamoto remained anonymous forever.

You don't know for real mate , like what OP said Satoshi might be someone hiding in Newbie or low ranking account and making conversation to us simply without noticing .
i have this thought everytime specially when time that there are a very good posts i come across this forum? i come to conclude that maybe this is Satoshi and pretending to be another account  ;D

but no matter what We all wanted or looking for opportunity to Know  him in reality and not for all speculative .

It is possible that Satoshi Nakamoto used another account to communicate with all of us. Sometimes I also have thoughts like you, every time
I find a newbie account or low rank members but make a good quality posts, I think it's Satoshi Nakamoto. But as long as there is no solid
evidence that can prove the existence of Satoshi Nakamoto, I chose not to expect much to communicate with Satoshi Nakamoto. As I said,
I'm more focused on Bitcoin, which can clearly provide benefits. However, whenever there is a topic on this forum that talks about Satoshi
Nakamoto, I am always interested in joining the discussion. Because honestly it's always interesting to talk about Satoshi Nakamoto, even
though sometimes the results of the discussions don't bring out anything new.

If I were him, I wouldn't necessarily show myself either. For various reasons. On the one hand, because of security, since there is quite a lot to get from him. And secondly, because I wouldn't want everyone to know how rich I am. The behavior is somehow understandable.

I only heard his name so far. As many other crypto traders, it is my dream to get in touch with him at least once in my lifetime.

Following some of the devs can also result in getting some weird off topic conspiracy theories

satoshi = anonymous
so we don't know who sathoshi is, I'm sure among the users of this forum is a genuine sathosi, who monitors the opinions of his fans to find out who he really is
 only opinion and imagination talk to satoshi

Satoshi Nakamoto is unknown for nearly all of the people in the world now. Maybe there are some people who really know who Satoshi is. But maybe we will even never find out about it. We don't know Satoshi's identity and it is not even known whether Satoshi is a person or some sort of a group. I bet that most people in the world think that Satoshi is a person, not anything else.  ;D

there must be someone who talks to satoshi, and knows about satoshi, but those who have met and talked to satoshi also keep their identity secret, because they also don't want the public to know about satoshi, bitcoin developers, and those who own this forum are most likely familiar with satoshi They don't want to tell us about his whereabouts, maybe they already have a deal with Satoshi, to keep Satoshi's identity a secret.

if asked if i have ever talked to satoshi, my answer is, don't talk to satoshi, i have never seen his face, i have read many articles, and there are many articles that i study i always find different answers, there are articles that say satoshi is the name of the group, there is also an article that says satoshi is one person, he developed his own bitcoin till now, so i stopped investigating about satoshi, now i just focus on the bitcoin he created..

So far most of the people that I have seen who were said to have worked with Satoshi Nakamoto back then when he was still active, none of them have said to know who he is. They only got to chat with him, shared mails and never got to see who it was that they were chatting with.

Moreover, it also amazes me that in a time like this, Satoshi Nakamoto was able to maintain his privacy, even till today and nobody has really found out who he is. It seems like he really took his time and drew a proper plan on how he was going to cover his tracks and maintain privacy until he has finished his work. And that’s really cool. The way I see it, if he revealed his identity back then at the earlier time, then bitcoin might not have been a success.

Even if all btc adopters wonna reward Satoshi for giving them BTC, he has went anonymous ever since and nobody knows him or know where he is talk less of talking to him. I will say, anybody saying that they're Satoshi are not Satoshi because nobody is Satoshi.

Over the years, I have had countless Satoshi impersonators try to con me into something or other. Almost always, they are immediately recognizable just because they act like they imagine a demigod would act. The Satoshi everyone has in their heads is a symbol, a character in a story where a superhuman mysteriously appears, does magic, and then mysteriously disappears. This symbol is not reflective of any real person who has ever existed, so impersonators' attempts are usually laughably bad.

Before and after Satoshi uploaded code or posted or sent PMs, he ate, drank, slept, worried, paid bills, etc. I'm sure at some point he got sick and puked his guts out. I'm sure he had fears and regrets. He was the same sort of flesh as you and I. But the Satoshi people know is not this real person, and is instead a "historical figure", which is to say that a small handful of things that the real person did and said have been diluted into the cultural milieu to produce an imaginary character whose existence aligns with what we want or expect of such a character in the context of the broader narrative. If someone condensed a few of your most notable quotes and accomplishments into a few paragraphs in a history book, selected and worded to align with the overall themes of that book, how much of "you" would that represent?

I didn't know Satoshi on any sort of personal level, so I'm not particularly saying that people "have him all wrong": I'm just generally very dismissive of the idea that anyone is superhuman. See my Satoshi's Lesson (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5092492.0) article, which has the same theme. It's important to recognize that there is no wall separating people like you and "notable" people. If you believe that there is, then you create that wall, and thereby imprison yourself.

I liked dealing with Satoshi when I did (which wasn't all that often), and I respected him a great deal. He had an incredible amount of "arrogance" in the sense that he saw seemingly-impossible challenges and believed (correctly) that he could conquer them, but yet he had zero arrogance in the commonly-understood sense. He was willing to give help to and accept help from people who knew and accomplished far less than him on the whole. He treated even me with respect, even though I was a 19-year-old excessively-individualistic idiot in 2010. I tend to remember Satoshi as a person who figured out what needed to be done, used all of his aptitude to get it done, and rarely got distracted by human failings like pride or fear. (Of course, this perception may well be more of a symbol in my head than an accurate image of a real person.)

theymos, did Satoshi tell you, why he chose secp256k1 and not secp256r1? Obviously, he told Laszlo Hanyecz 'I had a bunch of people look at it and they told me this was good.' Did you know this?
https://medium.com/@cryptosgifts/satoshi-nakamoto-had-outside-cryptography-help-says-early-bitcoin-dev-d9c90728de5 (https://medium.com/@cryptosgifts/satoshi-nakamoto-had-outside-cryptography-help-says-early-bitcoin-dev-d9c90728de5)

I ma only speaking to Satoshi in my daydreaming, even I  don't know who is Satoshi.
But that was past time ago, I really want to say, Hi Satoshi, give me more Bitcoins freely. That was funny and stupid daydreaming happened when I really needed money at that time.  :D ;D
And of course, this is only a daydreaming and will not happen. And for what we are talking to?
Old members here could only speak with Satoshi by the user here, not from mouth by mouth, face to face, because we don't know who the real Satoshi, and what is it.
And is  that important to think about?  ;D
Focus only in what we are doing right now and inn the future.

Fortunately Satoshi still have an account here in bitcointalk so if you earnestly want to talk to him you can send him message though He may not reply you because the last time He was active was December 13, 2010, 04:45:41 PM.

unfortunately, nobody dont know who is satoshi, why he live in shadow. if you ask Have you spoken to Satoshi ? i think some people already talk to him, but they didn't know that he is satoshi. hahaha
i hope maybe someday, we can know who is satoshi. so we can fix the history about bitcoin  ;D ;D

I always wanted to hear more about Satoshi but directly from those who have dealt with Satoshi directly and you are one of those. Thank you for sharing your thoughts.

"He was the same sort of flesh as you and I"  hahaha so that's another proof he was a real person not a team not a group but actually human being made out of flesh, a good flesh because he's been sitting on this big thrown of +1 million BTC (worth ~$73 billion) and he did not try to visit space and he did not try to build a colony on MARS.

Let it be anonymous, let it be a superhero, let it be a perception a symbol for the future.

No, not you Mr. Craig Wright not you .

He created this Forum , He created the best cryptocurrency Bitcoin so how come the Satoshi will Lose time for this?

you are speculating wrongly.

for long time now, i am always thinking that one of us here is Satoshi specially those mining and TA experts? i sometimes try to think that this account or that account is satoshi alt account.

Satoshi nakamoto can be human or spirit because since i follow the forum no body have said with assurance that he has spoken to Satoshi before, i support you is unknown to every body who are here, it is when the forum started in 2009 and 2010 when Satoshi usually discuss in bitcoin discussion and project development section but for long time no body have seen he to the forum again, i believe people that is position to talk about Satoshi is the head's of the forum global moderators and staffs

I don’t think he’s got time for this but I can imagine how great it would be if one day we realise he’s one of our forum members, and we’ve been interacting with him all this while.

Im Satoshi

what are you seriously ? A true genius and hero ,an identity that will always remain anonymous ,won't admit to being a satoshi like you so I doubt if I have to believe that you are a satoshi ,because since the first up in internet satoshi never showed his identity ! claiming to be a satoshi like the people in the news was just a fad who wants to be famous in this world because satoshi has made or technology inventor crypto world ,I think so real of satoshi never show on public ! like theymos said in above " mysteriously disappeared "

I wonder if anyone here has ever done that and knows his identity, as we know that his identity is very secret, it's better that way to avoid unwanted things. I've read the news that there are some people claiming to be Satoshi and I find that funny. how could it not, Satoshi had been missing for a long time and he easily revealed himself, this doesn't make sense. although most likely Satoshi still following the development of Bitcoin and other cryptos. It's not an easy thing to find Satoshi and I don't think we need to interfere in that matter.

Satoshi has done well to the world economy by eliminating unemployment and poverty from the societies. I have seen many articles about Satoshi and how many people where laughing at him based on the decision he took to create bitcoin for humanity purpose, so that there will not be errors in transactions or delay in transaction.
I have never spoke to Satoshi but am really enjoying his good work he has created for young people like me to enjoy and to become somebody in the future. I love Satoshi

Very few people actually interact with the owner of id number 3 on this forum, I never had a chance to do so as he has only been active for more than 1 year since registration. Theymos described him as arrogant, but not arrogant in the general sense. I really believe that he exists, but he wants better privacy as someone who offers privacy for his intellectual work "bitcoin".

Satoshi had 526 posts during his time, 55% of which were on Development & Technical Discussion boards while 26% were on bitcoin discussion. You can see the distribution of satoshi's posts in the image below is more complete, he's more likely to be a developer than a miner even though he's capable of it.

I agree with what you said. no one can explain who he really is until now and indeed when I saw several articles and other news I only found a few different speculations so far.
and until now I really don't really think about who he is because even if I meet people or groups who are really satoshi I might not even be able to speak.
but indeed I just want to say thank you for what he made and his discovery is the best in my opinion

Satoshi's identity will remain a secret that will never be solved. If there is someone who continues to claim to be the inventor of bitcoin or as a satoshi, perhaps he is too fascinated with bitcoin technology, even claiming to have the private key of a satoshi private wallet.
no one can reveal who satoshi is, let it remain a secret behind bitcoin.

I am also very impressed with satoshi, he/she is truly anonymous and not even tempted by the recognition of this world if he/she shows his/her true self to the world. people who claim to be satoshi are just those who chase their names recorded in world history, but satoshi is not tempted by that, if i can chat with satoshi then i will have no more regrets in this life lol.

Why not, he is probably very rich, rich enough not to worry about money for the rest of their live, probably they would be bored eventually and take a look on their old beloved community.


He/she is being ironic.

Theymos just don't know about Satoshi's identity and will never be revealed. Talking directly to satoshi is certainly a great thing, but if satoshi had never spoken directly to other people as an inventor of bitcoin, of course no one would know.
Satoshi's identity will remain a mystery and no one will be able to uncover it. Even people claiming to be satoshi can be confirmed as fakes.

Has Satoshi ever made any public statetements? Do we even know whether it is just one person or a whole group of people? Their identity remains a mystery to this day and I have doubts whether that will ever change.

Nobody knows his identity, and none of us would know until the day he decides to reveal it himself. If anyone would have been able to tell who he is, then they would have done that since. It seems like before he went about creating Bitcoin, he took his time to lay down the plans on how he would get his identity to remain a secret without anybody knowing about who he is.

Although I am quite surprised on how he was able to go about this, because at a time like this when it is very easy to find out the identity of people, but he was able to do this and seal it off completely.

Sometimes I do wonder if those who were around and helps to build this platform, whether they are still around with us till date. Most of these people has gotten really big now, and they wouldn’t be having that kind of time to be chatting with people as regularly as they would have been doing back then.

And I also believe that a lot of them might have even stopped being part of the cryptocurrency community, maybe after they have gained from it in one way or the other, and they then decide maybe they should focus on something else. And there can be those who might have also created their own platforms on cryptocurrency.

Well, I have doubt that perhaps those co-developers who has friend of Satoshi know who really they are but they are remain keep silent just for anonymity.
Still question in our mind if Satoshi is he/they because it is impossible if only a single person who has created a code which is perfectly created and until now it becomes useful to anyone. However, whoever it is, we should be thankful to him/them for their invention because we are both benefited from it and help our life becomes free from financial problem.

Point of other, Satoshi is not a group of person, is a single person, and i believe he has team members that brought Bitcoin to light during the time of bitcoin initiation to the global world, secondly, are you expecting Satoshi to make public announcement so that government will come after him after has made himself known to the public, like before Satoshi make announcement for the platform he created bitcointalk forum, he has made so many references of bitcoin in 2009 and 2010 when he left the forum

No, i have never spoken to Satoshi. But he is the most genius person for the creation of the Bitcoin. I think some might not have participated in forum at the time his activeness.

many people want to talk to satoshi but i'm sure that won't happen because satoshi didn't show himself satoshi until now it is still a mystery if satoshi appeared then now satoshi will be the richest person in the world and all the eyes of the world will be on him.
