Title: Is the Bitcoin community 100 percent certain that the early big names from 2009 Post by: anzel2002 on July 09, 2016, 03:05:37 AM Is the Bitcoin community 100 percent certain that the early adopters and big names from 2009 are not Satoshi Nakamoto simply hiding in plain sight?

Of course not -- all of them have been accused of being Satoshi at some point.

The media, and the people in our communities would just be speculating as to who she is (or they are) as there is no conclusive evidence in that aspect. Additionally, as some people say it doesn't even matter who she is and I actually think that it is better that we don't know. Bitcoin does not need central figures such as that, it is better that they remain anonymous.

If i discover bitcoin in 2009 i'm very glad and relaxing now because for sure i'm now rich af.

I agree with you. Satoshi can be man, woman, group of people or even organization or company, we don't know. It's obvious that they choose anonymity because of legal and other reasons and we should respect it. After all, they are not so important in this story. We should be more interesting in idea and vision behind Bitcoin and enjoy the ride :) Title: Re: Is the Bitcoin community 100 percent certain that the early big names from 2009 Post by: groll on July 09, 2016, 01:15:46 PM Is the Bitcoin community 100 percent certain that the early adopters and big names from 2009 are not Satoshi Nakamoto simply hiding in plain sight? It is a possibility that nakamoto satoshi is not a single individual but a group of experts. They are maybe the bitcoin early adopters and big names from 2009. But everything are just opinion and a theory since bitcoin is done in secret and even if they exposed themselves today it is hard to convince the bitcoin populace that they are the legitimate group that was known to be satoshi the creator of bitcoin. So until today everything remains a mystery since its creation.

Yeah, that does make sense Title: Re: Is the Bitcoin community 100 percent certain that the early big names from 2009 Post by: gmaxwell on July 11, 2016, 09:36:53 AM We can be sure, however, that this question is really boring and a waste of time.
Bitcoin was specifically designed so that it's creator-- and ideally, any other person-- their actions or motivations, doesn't matter. Worrying about Bitcoin's creator is mostly just showing that you don't get the point.

For thousand years people have been taught and got habituated in following a leader. Hence, for the non-libertarians, it is and it always will matter - Who is Satoshi Nakamoto?Bitcoin was specifically designed so that it's creator-- and ideally, any other person-- their actions or motivations, doesn't matter. Worrying about Bitcoin's creator is mostly just showing that you don't get the point. Also, u must note that, there is a certain group having vested interest in the bitcoin economy, who wants someone to portray as Satoshi Nakamoto and then make him spell out their vision. The two reasons stated above create the demand for Satoshi Nakamoto. And when there is a demand, free market will always supply... REAL or FAKE. ;) Title: Re: Is the Bitcoin community 100 percent certain that the early big names from 2009 Post by: pereira4 on July 11, 2016, 12:23:24 PM The entire core dev team has been accused to being satoshi nakamoto. Adam back is credited on the whitepaper for example, then we have szabo, hal finney... all those guys that were there pretty much since day 1. It's a very strange and fascinating story. Any of the early names could be Satoshi.
