Who is Satoshi  (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=3)Nakamoto ?

Satoshi Nakamoto is a talented cipher and coder.
Wrote the whitepaper on bitcoin  (https://nakamotoinstitute.org/bitcoin/) "Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System" and published it on the cypherpunks mailing list (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4356808.0) in October 2008
Developed the code (https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/blob/master/src/chainparams.cpp) for bitcoin and founded https://bitcointalk.org
He used an e-mail address (https://www.gmx.com/mail/#.1559516-header-nav1-2) and a web site that is untraceable.
In 2009 and 2010, he wrote hundreds of posts in flawless English.
He invited other software developers to help him improve the code, and corresponded with them,
He never revealed any personal details.
 Stefan Thomas (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=37743.0), a Swiss coder and active community member, graphed the time stamps for each of Nakamoto's bitcoin forum posts and found:
He made almost no posts between the hours of 5 a.m. and 11 a.m. Greenwich Mean Time.
In April, 2011, he sent a note to a developer saying that he had “moved on to other things.” He has not been heard from since.

His birthday is said to be on April 5, 1975 according to this post. (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1427158.0)
(But it is likely that he didn't select his real birth-date)

His writing is clean, with few typos.
He shows a high proficiency in English. Making very few mistakes. (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4505532.msg41464924#msg41464924)
After his first post, in which he used American spelling, he switched to English spelling for all the rest.



Was Satoshi a good coder ?



Someone hacked Satoshis email account to try and discover who he is:

Lots of people have been suspected of being Satoshi:

People who corresponded with him have all been named as suspects:

‎Hal Finney, Martti Malmi,  Adam Back, Michael Marquardt, Gavin Andresen and Wei Dai.

But in doing so are we minimising those individuals own contribution to Bitcoin.
They may not be the founder but they are the apostles.

Bitcoin is a collaboration of efforts based on a combination of ideas all consolidated in this whitepaper (https://nakamotoinstitute.org/bitcoin/)
It was then executed by a group of individuals, both identified and anonymous.


Many threads with some compelling arguments have been made about it.

I'm not going to duplicate the theories but have instead provided the links to various theories on here:

If Satoshi Nakamoto wanted to be known by another identity it is up to him or her to make that move. It is clear from the writing that they were deeply concerned about privacy.

Here are the writings of the real Satoshi (https://nakamotoinstitute.org/)

This in combination to the claims made in the Dave Kleiman Estate  lawsuit  (https://www.scribd.com/document/372445546/Bitcoin-Lawsuit) against Craig Wright makes Dave Kleiman the current most plausible suspect.

Craig Wright filed a motion to dismiss (https://www.scribd.com/document/376723062/Motion#from_embed?campaign=SkimbitLtd&ad_group=100652X1574425X1678bab45d2ee3d0aeddda2a82e0b14b&keyword=660149026&source=hp_affiliate&medium=affiliate)

But I'm still skeptical of the claim because it is reliant on Craig Wrights testimony. In my opinion he has a $54 million reason to lie.

My conclusion:

I rather not know. I think the mystery makes it more intriguing. Some legends are better as legends. Like Merlin and Robin Hood.

thank you for such a detail post summary about him. i still imagine that he's asian and middle age now but who knows.

Some more less likely theories:

https://i.imgur.com/n4K6uGu.png

Satoshis missing posts:

I've also seen some documentary movie and some article regarding who's the real satoshi nakamoto but noone claim who he really was.

There many speculations and conspiracy who he really was but noone can ever see or konw who he really was even the fbi and cia don't know

who he was. Maybe the governemnt or those in power conceal who satoshi really was.

It doesn't matter who Satoshi is. :o :o
What's important is that he brings us blockchain technology and bitcoin, which is good for the whole world.

Er, why is Dave Kleiman not on this list? He was Satoshi with the highest probability.

Added to the list and added you as a source. Here is a good post that debunks that theory: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3032215.msg31194506#msg31194506

Has Craig Wright Committed Perjury? https://hackernoon.com/has-craig-wright-committed-perjury-new-information-in-the-kleiman-case-cbaaf2628e93

Thank to OP for putting such an enormous effort to put together this thread. However, I believe the community respects Mr. Nakamoto for his invention but they are not interested to know who the person really is! Because bitcoin is a revolution and for every revolution to take shape and to shake the world, the propagator must stay safe! Otherwise the revolution is bound to fail. If, by any chance his real identity is established, do you think the enforcement agencies will let him live his life peacefully?

Can we reach a consensus here to stop finding who the Satoshi Nakamoto is and let him live his life peacefully?? He needs respect and not the investigation on his real identity!

That is also my viewpoint. I rather not know. I think the mystery makes it more intriguing. Some legends are better as legends. Like Merlin and Robin Hood.
It is better to focus on his writing rather than his identity.  It is quite obvious that he was very concerned about privacy. His association with the cypherpunks proves he was deeply concerned about privacy.

There are also some other very smart people who were involved in the creation of bitcoin and some of them lurk on bitcointalk.

It is also quite possible and quite likely that he was involved in Government level work and divulging his identity might have caused serious issues for him.

Satoshi definitely deserves his privacy. He gifted us Bitcoin, and if he wants to remain anonymous, he should! Besides, I'm pretty sure a few governments would like to have a talk with him if he was identified...

https://youtu.be/NCRh6zzWnVY (https://youtu.be/NCRh6zzWnVY) Craig Wright interview.

Craig Wright is not Satoshi. He has a temper that would have shown at some stage of the writings.
I think he and Dave Kleiman have mined a lot of blocks but I think he has lied to the estate.
In my opinion his evasiveness, temper and broken promises are classic signs that he doesn't have the evidence to back up his claims and is not telling the full truth.

Even if Kleiman was Satoshi - I don't think Wright has got the private keys.

A lot of the claims made by Wright were made in 2011 before people were actively tracking bitcoin addresses and a lot of his claims are demonstratively false.

Technically it doesn't matter whether you defraud for $1 million or $1 billion - the punishment is the same. The notoriety is more if it is for $1 billion.

I'd love to see some more emails written by Kleiman. That Wizsec article also doesn't believe Craigs stories. https://blog.wizsec.jp/2018/02/kleiman-v-craig-wright-bitcoins.html

Even if I knew who he or she was I wouldn't out them publicly.  But speculation will never stop. But I'd hate it if a fraud is identified as the real Satoshi.

This thread is a consolidation of all the theories. Logical, imagined and just plain goofy.

While their identity may never be known, Satoshis writing is his real legacy.

Added extra details about Satoshis email being hacked and used to threaten theymos.

I opened this topic expecting one of those poorly repeated topics talking about Satoshi for the millionth time but I was surprised to see this nice compilation of all the theories so far. it was merit worthy.

I specifically like the "Samsung Toshiba Nakamichi Motorola" thing :D

Thank you for the compliment. I did try to consolidate as many theories as possible. The recent Kleiman developments are interesting.
If Kleiman was Satoshi then it will still take years to play out through the courts. A Satoshi million bitcoin selloff will mean cheap bitcoin for a while.

All I heard about SATOSHI NAKAMOTO is that he is the inventor of bitcoin, the largest crypto currency among all and now considered as a boon in today’s world. Though he is imaginary and hypothetical yet because no one has saw him ever . He has Twitter and other accounts where he use to communicate with bitcoin user and get their bitcoin experiences but no one has ever met him, I don’t think he is a fraud or something all I know is that he is the good father of bitcoin Nd I want to meet him once in my life.

I read a quite hilarious article on the possbility of Satoshi being an Artificial Intellgience robot.  apparently bitcoin was careated by this robot so it could eventually take over the entire world :)

This post is month late from birthday celebration last april 5 lol

But you have lots of intelligence work here to get this details,though not so truthful but theres some fact that this have some link and that samsung ,toshiba,nakamichi and motorola sounds interesting,ill go deep about some of your points here,google will be used again for this 😂

You might be referring to this one ?

I don't have strong opinions about it  - I really would like to reflect as many opinions and viewpoints as possible so readers can make their own conclusions.

The post is far from finished - I've got a lot of cleaning up and adding more links - to do on it.

I think if Satoshi wanted to be found he / she would have made it obvious or make it obvious in the future. Any good links and discussions will be linked to in the original post.

Satoshi transcended to the next step in the evolution of Bitcoin, which is ALL Bitcoin users becoming the NEW Satoshi Nakamoto. WE are now Satoshi Nakamoto. It is our duty to hide his identity, because his identity is protecting our investment. Once his identity is revealed, all HELL will break lose.

Criminals will try to get their hands on his coins and governments will prosecute him for whatever reason they might conjure up to throw him in jail. People might be disappointed, once they realized who he/she is and they will dump their coins.  ::)

I agree the government will try to get him for whatever they can so he could not reveal himself at any time.

http://bitcoinist.com/cia-doesnt-deny-files-bitcoin-creator-satoshi-nakamoto/

Just in the news today....

Not sure if they needed stylometry to identify SN. It would be easier to use XKeyScore and some 0-days I guess. They definitely could be interested in identifying SN at some point (maybe about this time: http://gawker.com/the-underground-website-where-you-can-buy-any-drug-imag-30818160 and https://www.nbcnewyork.com/news/local/Schumer-Calls-on-Feds-to-Shut-Down-Online-Drug-Marketplace-123187958.html )

In my own understanding why we are suspecting Satoshi Makamoto doing fraud and conspiracies hes invention helps the world economy to grow his not forcing the community to adopt and used it our own self presented to joined this network upon joining this technology we don't know his real identity that means  his privacy remain  whatever the outcome of his invention successful or down we should respect him because we have a little share of his legacy.

The true identity of Satoshi Nakamoto is the main mystery of Bitcoin. And not only because the creator of the most successful currency experiment in the world remains anonymous after almost six years. Another reason is that the growth of bitcoin's price made him extremely rich.

Have you reported this to CIA or the FBI already? That looks like very valuable information and it could help them find him. On the other hand, maybe you should try to delete all this information.

I think you are on the right path, but since Satoshi was the creator of bitcoin, and we all thank him for that so maybe we should try to not help in the discovery of his identity as a token of appreciation. If you don't let this one go, you will probably ruin bitcoin, Christmas and very important companies in our society. Some things are better left hidden.

I think Santa is safe for now. Just remember that Kris Kringle has used pseudo-names for decades and the elves at the bitcoin foundation will keep him safe.

There is a conspiracy on bitcointalk that Satoshis nakamoto was a member of this forum and set it up while going out of the forum. But I don't believe it.

More likely not a person due to the complexity of the code. AI makes sense complex computational power. Through deep learning AI controls financial resources feeds on broadness of blockchain to grow and expand.

More than a conspiracy. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=3

I think its a name behind which involve many people possibly a team of genius people . Whatever Mr. Satoshi is a Ghost lol and should remain so .

I disagree. Everything is complex if you don't understand it.

People like Wei Dai, Adam Beck, Hal Finney, Gavin Andresen, Martti Malmi, and many others are all capable of understanding and developing the complexities of bitcoin.

What a detailed topic that complies about all the inquiries and question in every cryptonians specially those bitcoiners that looking for concrete answers.

Though its very related in every issues still no perfect answer to the question that Who's Satoshi Nakamoto but i resepct the mans Privacy and besides theres no enough words to thank him for bringing blockchain to us all

I am very curious of Satoshi Nakamoto because of his briiliant ideas of creating bitcoin but I dont know if he really does exist or not.I am amazed because through his great minds he contributed much to everyone.But due to unknown identity until now there are lots of people who claimed as him because they wanted to be famous or to scammed people.

Just discovered an interesting Theymos thread about the removed Satoshi posts:

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=56272.msg669898#msg669898

I've also edited an earlier post in this thread and quoted Theymos.

SATOSHI NAKAMOTO the so called inventor and the owner of bitcoin , who so ever he is, first of all I like to thank him for his such a great invention because bitcoin in now a days is considered to be the boon for humanity and many has find Satoshi Nakamoto on many social networking sites like on Twitter or on Facebook where he use to interact with his users , though nobody has saw him yet but we all believe that he is there and once in my life I would like to meet him seriously.

The reason I made this thread was to consolidate the great information on the forum. Not by replicating it but by linking to it.
Another reason I made it was to stimulate some intelligent conversation and hopefully draw out some of the legends on here that were part of that history in the making.

I feel I have succeeded with all those objectives.

- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Digital_gold_currency

I think Satoshi Nakamoto is a group living in Japan. Before, when I first invested in the cryptocurrency market, there were many people who told me they had met Satoshi in real life. But I guess Satoshi Nakamoto is just a myth

I, BitcoinFX hereby state that when I started mining bitcoin in early 2010 I used the following windows program (Prio)
- https://www.prnwatch.com/prio/ - to watch all incoming and outgoing TCP/IP connections to the Bitcoin network from my home PC, which was fully port forwarded on 8333.

I distinctly recall resolving the website of said Dave Kleiman, as to this effect, the domain name was also acting as a bitcoin P2P node.

Either ... www. DigitalComputerForensicExpert .com or www. DaveKleiman .com or www. ComputerForensicExaminer .com

The website had a distinct design that stuck in my memory coupled with the fact that, as an individual who had recently discovered Bitcoin, this reassured myself that other IT professionals were interested in the project (if only from a research / testing standpoint).

Kindest Regards,

Here is a link to a thread regarding my old / original exchange service 'BitcoinFX' ...
- https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1822045.msg18151407#msg18151407

Now. Does anyone find it just a little bit odd that my website does not feature anywhere in any of the Bitcoin history time lines? Despite references to my service being originally made via the bitcointalk.org forum.

Realize that I myself lost a lot of totally legally earned money (via retail forex trading and some advertising revenues) when LR was shut down and users funds were confiscated by the US government - personal / business account funds which I myself also intended to move back into BTC ...

Something really stinks here folks! Obviously!

either way, we won't know the truth. at least for us it will remain a mystery, as it concerns the personal safety of Satoshi Nakomoto. Just imagine, if the world knew the identity of the founder, he would be put on international wanted list in many countries, all because our world is full of greedy and evil people.
but I still hold the view that our administrator theymos knows the identity of this person, and perhaps he is part of the Satoshi team. Despite this, I think that this person will be a long time to thank, as many users have already done. :)
Satoshi Nakamoto (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=3)

This is completely irrelevant in this instance as;

Dave Kleiman is now deceased.

Craig Wright has already asserted himself to be Satoshi Nakamoto and is re-asserting BCH as the main BTC chain.

I, myself have nothing to lose in this regard, if I can help seek truth and justice then I will. TBH I would quite like to get some of my hard earned 'money' back myself! Grand larceny is a crime.

They want the bitcoin blockchain gone because it holds the evidence of the liberty reserve scandal

Why they all looking at Bcashers as Satoshi (obvious these punks want bitcoin dead, not defeated, not replaced, GONE!!!)


It is and always has been since 2008 a Currency War

Whether he was created by the government or not, people loved bitcoin, and this is a bad sign for those who are engaged in money laundering and crime. All we can do is relax and enjoy the way the commission rates for transactions and payments are reduced.

Most importantly, there are people like you who are willing to fight for justice and truth. After all, we all know that the power is in the truth. I'm certainly powerless to help you, but I would be very happy if you could get justice in this matter.

Yes, I know that the war of currencies is a very long time, and many want the power in the crypto-currency market, but I sincerely believe that these people are wasting their labor and they should not succeed.

Here, here! Thank you.

For the record, logs I have are stored in multiple locations and I have also made sure that people who I can assume to trust in the Bitcoin space know my identity.

this is very interesting, especially some names of companies that match with the name satoshi nakamoto, samsung, toshiba, nakamichi, motorola. is this just a coincidence?

or a name that is conceptualized and planned? if all those companies belong to satoshi, I think that's impossible.

all that companies have older age than bitcoin.

My assumption, that is speculation without foundation and accidental speculation.

Not a fact! Such coincidences even my child can lead a lot.
Everyone needs facts, not coincidences.
No facts yet. There are only persons who are still silent and I think that they will be silent for a very long time.

   Satoshi Nakamoto is still a living  legend that always keep a secrets and always wants privacy,respect and anonimity. So,i think it is enough that we know who is Sotoshi Nakamoto and just be thankful that through that person bitcoin was created and give hope,help and future for everyone. Let us continue support and patronize bitcoin as a symbol of a person with great mind a big heart for every one of us here in cryptocurrency.

I'm not seeking Satoshi.
I'm seeking who is not Satoshi.

:-X   8)

I agree. There will be many charlatans claiming to be Satoshi.

It is the only hindrance of not knowing his identity.

One big red flag is when someone utters "I am Satoshi" as I don't believe the real Satoshi would say that.

Wow, this is one of the best posts I've ever seen on the theme of Satoshi's identity. I would merit it but I'm quite poor in zMerits.
Still, nobody has theorized that Satoshi Nakamoto could in fact be the name of the hamster of the real creator of Bitcoin. Or perhaps his snake instead :)

The book might still be interesting fiction. ;D

I think I would rather read a non fiction book by someone like you bitcoinFX. That way I know the the story is real. There are so many people that are part of this whole story that I much rather hear it from. Whether it is Enzo Ferrari, one of his trusted engineers or one of the team drivers. The story will be great.

We are satoshi?

;D

We as in Me, Myself and I ?

I think everyone participates in Satoshis vision. Some positively and some not...


I'm quite excited that someone like you, bitcoinFX (user number 30 !) is here on the forum able to relay some of his experiences. Without these very early adopters bitcoin would not be where it is now. There are contributors all along the way in different roles but it is something very unique if you can take part in something like this right at the start.

What would make an awesome book to read is if most of the people involved early on in bitcoin all wrote one page or one chapter each.

Satoshi Nakamoto is still alive and I believe the conspiracy theory that he is still active on this bitcointalk forum and part of the administrator of the forum. But my problem is how will anyone with the skills to invent such a great technology will be hiding.

Whether alive or not. There are very good reasons to be hiding.

Some people do not seek fame, Government attention, Media attention or wealth. Some people do things because it is the right thing to do and prefer to hide from the limelight.

Privacy - a common saying is if you have nothing to hide then you have nothing to worry about.

Cool - I'm happy to take away your curtains and your toilet door ! Others will be happy to steal your identity and possessions.

No as in Satoshi is a team of cypherpunks  ;D

Timelines of 2 prominent founders within this group coexist in a strange twist of political intrigue, intelligence agencies, disappearance and asylum

I like conspiracy theories, make it up as you go along so much easier

Samsung, Toshiba, Nakamichi, Motorolla.

Has anyone tried contacting them to see if they know whereabouts of Satoshi Nakamoto? Perhaps he was one individual working with them or four individuals working as one. who knows.

Make it up as you go.

That is what politicians, intelligence agencies and people stuck in asylums often do too.  ;D

No reason to reinvent the wheel, follow the crazies

So as the theory continues...
Disappearance and Asylum

6 months apart, founders, cypherpunk group - who and who (disappeared and requested to be crazy [asylum])?  ;D

Can you elaborate ?

There are many reasons why Satoshi's identity is left hidden. We should respect his privacy and appreciate the work he had developed for the use of humanity which is really overwhelming.

Let it be a mystery, there must be a good weld why it is hidden. The most important thing now is the result of his work that has changed the world, its impact is greatly felt by the community. His dedication has helped many people in financial terms, thanks Satoshi

well, we must not focus about the creator of bitcoin. we must focus on what is good about it. focus on your investments, earnings and many more. We believe that Satoshi Nakamoto is a great creator of Bitcoin, his/her dedication on pushing Bitcoin to be legalized in many countries is very good, I believe that Many investors are now thankful on Satoshi Nakamoto because of his legacy unto us.

Sometimes its ok to be curious on whats happening. For us humans, its normal that we seek for the truth and all the things about something. Satoshi nakamoto is a alias used by a person or group that created bitcoin. Its real identity is not known, but there people that claiming they're satoshi nakamoto but they dont have valid reason. I think the real satoshi just wanted to help the people but dont want to be known its real identity.

More than his coding skills, I like how he has kept his identity hidden. He though about long term.

People like misteries and conspiracy theories more than everything, they enjoy it so much. So the same it's with Satoshi too.
I believe that Satoshi whoever he/she/it is will not reveal the true identity, this will remain the secret. And besides to feed the curiosity there is no reason to know the actual identity.

Nobody would really know for sure. Let's just respect his privacy and let him be. We will know eventually who he is if he do reveal himself.

This was a very interesting read, OP. You have truly gone above and beyond to gather this list of findings, you might consider changing your career to be a detective  :P

I think this was an important piece of the puzzle. Considering every human needs sleep, I would say this is his night time, thus putting him on a US timezone for sure.

Some people were saying he was UK based but I don't think that's accurate. So, we could exclude that.

I think we will not find out the truth. Contact will not do anything. With kis to contact? these are huge companies. I can see that working people are not facts.

Privacy - a common saying is that if you have nothing to hide then you have nothing to worry about. Others will be happy to steal your identity and property. The schedules of two prominent founders in this group coexist in a strange transformation of political conspiracy, intelligence, disappearance and refugees.

Has anyone tried to contact them to see if they know where Satoshi Nakamoto is? There are many reasons why the identity of Satoshi is hidden. Let it be a mystery, there must be a good solder why it hidden. His dedication helped many people in financial terms, thanks, Satoshi

I think that the faces will appear only when the cryptocurrency will be useless. or when the cryptocurrency will deanonymization thanks to the power of a computer at the end of the money in Fiat

Bitcoin was introduced in 2009 , a decade ago and now it has been considered as the finest invention to the mankind and SATOSHI NAKAMOTO, is the first who is considered behind the invention of bitcoin, though nobody has met him yet and his presence is even doubtful as nobody has seen him yet but there are gossip that he used to talk and interact with people on social networking sites like Twitter and Facebook, though, I haven’t chat with him yet but once I got chance, I would like to meet him once in my life.

Satoshi Nakamoto is a term used by someone who is unknown and is a designer of bitcoin and the results of its original application refers to Bitcoin Core. Through its application in Bitcoin Core, the base of the blockchain database has also been planned with careful thought for the first time. In a series of actions taken, the problem of double-spending payments for digital currencies can be found by Satoshi Nakamoto for the first time. Satoshi Nakamoto is an active follower in relation to the development of bitcoin until 2010.

Bitcoin has made its unique identification in the market of investment and it is its users that has made so successful and popular and the bitcoin is on the top of on ranking of crypto currencies and the credit for all goes to SATOSHI Nakamoto, the so called inventor of bitcoin, though nobody has seen him yet but he used to talk to his investors through social networking sites but when in my life I would like to meet him and want to thank him for his invention.

This is actually a good speculation on who is he. Because of his japanese name, the only thing I can think of is he maybe is a japanese guy. But your speculation actually is really good and you were able to make your speculation well.

Thank you for so much detailed and interesting analysis.A lot of different options and there is no one single and true.The text has the words Satoshi Nakamoto where he tells his colleague that ,,he will do other things,.I wonder what this man is doing now?Most likely developing a super powerful quantum computer. ;) 8)

I agree that OP created very good and detailed topic here. Structure and design makes you wanna read all of it. Everything written in very smooth way, i like reading this kind of things on Bitcointalk.
Many people wants to know who Satoshi really is. Almost all Bitcoin supporters wanna know every detail about his life. Honestly i think it’s just better not to know the real story behind Satoshi Nakamoto. Sometimes little secrets make everything better. On the other hand some people really believe that he is dead already..

o much bullshit in this post did you know that journlist that was get info from underground people which behind wiki leaks and others always receive the inforamtion under one weird name .


you so uneducated in simple things that done over the web and its shows on very low logic and the ability to trace on the web

do you think wiki leaks run by one person ?????

bitcoin operation its done by global team , if you uneducated its dosent change this facts....

after bitcoin explode suddnely from no where cicada 3301 pop up and search people in the same area and other with sharp skills

sad to see so much people like you with so much starts and dont know shit about the web and what goes underground really

heyyyyyyyyyyyyy

bitcoin was nothing but nothing without top marketers which make it viral with ze0 salary

shame on you simple things like this you didnt know...

even more few people hint that peer to peer file sharing will make finical freedom one of them edoward snowden which was leak huge info amount to wiki leaks website and journlist from around the w0rld.

you just uneducated and dont know how things operate underground very simple and the bullshit you say dosent change the facts...

in other words wiki leaks run by one person because the journalist that was receiving info was get it under one name yet wiki leaks is rung by gloabl team....

and wiki leaks operation much more big then bitcoin relative * the biggest leaks dont in the entire history

educate your self littel bit and you have 5 shitty stars , so sad to this bullshit spread.

Daphne Caruana Galizia was get info from group of people which was under one name and they part of big global team, she was killed in very short time because she exposed to much ...

edoward snowdan was escaped from usa to china under different name and there part of the team waited him to hide him

some of them behind bitcoin and some hint that peer to peer going to make finical freedom which i dont going put names here its hint some where on the web who know to trace will get to them the other in this also huge operation called bitcoin we will never will get to them.

last point top marketers from around the world was making bitcoin viral,,,,who know if they part of them or not....marketing this is the brains which without them nothing happen...

soory for my english but i dont give a damn shit :)

in reality it interesting when you get it right.

who want go more deep the rabbit hole and all what said here was said by people like kevin mitnick the legend and others legends,

i will put links to videos if people here to much uneducated to trace this simple things...

deep the rabbit hole...

**


this kind of people dont have salaries like fucky agents which backed by army of people/country and shitty salaries, they know to do bunch of money and be free and in the same time to do operations on a global scale like bitcoin and wiki leaks, and other cool stuff which agents only will dream to do and be aprt of this kind of people which challenge them self to make the imposiible over and over again without salaries and nothing.

you know the operation like wiki leaks its never ever done in the entire history the same with bitcoin, cicada 3301 which was pop short after bitcoin explode and search people in the same field* and skills and people with huge sharp logic.

another point is that this kind of info need to be exposed by agents from all countries around the world because they are the LAST HOPE FOR US...

yet they are the same shit like governmnets and in the end who did it underground people without salaries and without any protection, like

edoward snowdan and kevin mitnick , Chelsea E. Manning,  and Daphne Caruana Galizia which was killed in very short time and great honest women for great kids...killed.

there are bunch others some expose them self and dont give a damn shit and some hide because they know to much and other reasons.

for agents that backed by army of people and shitty salaries , to bring down someone, which mean to kill its dosent show on any intelligence or smart people they are fucking army of people that backed by shitty salaries hhhhhhh and still cannot get to the info that wiki leaks leaked by this huge team.

compare to wiki leaks operation which show on high intelligence and done by people which dont have shitty salaries and know to do huge amount of money,
and expose info which top agents from any country cannot do its fact and kevin mitnik the legend also said this i can put video here hhhhh!

wiki leaks this operation is the biggest one that was in the entire history and this is why great honest people killed fast!

bitcoin come from the same international team or some of them, and also the biggest startup that was ever created because the last startup in this area was paper money, after this no body try to compete usd,euro,shekel, what ever shit out there...

in 11 years market which almost half trillion created any agents from any counrty in the world only will dream be part of this kind of teams,

edoward snowden after exposing very important info about fbi shit clowns and other agents around the world which was on wiki leaks escaped to china there people waited him to hide him,,,,he escaped under different name and there are bunch like of him that move from country to country under different names for meetings and other important stuff . far away from illusion you think wiki leaks can run without organazied people over the web which know to communicate in way which is impossible to crack because if not this type of communication that was traced fast as light its fucking FACT!

edoward snowdan and other few which i will not name them was said before bitcoin came even that peer to peer file sharing will do financial freedom!!

cicada 3301 which shortly after bitcoin explode pop from no where and start to search for people in the same area hhhhhh and people with huge sharp logic, and went viral forever* which mean the topest marketers in the world was behind this project , its the same people behind wiki leaks and bitcoin....

...

so inspiring to see that underground people do shit which agents from all countries will only dream to do and be part, time changes and internet interconnect the smartest people on the globe.

after all they dont depend on shitty salaries and backed by army of people like agents yet they can learn them how to make huge amount of money and do projects on a global scale and communicate in some sort of way which impossible to crack it, how know maybe few people in this forum communicte secretly with others and give the illusion that there are no sender and  receiver who knows and other places??

Daphne Caruana Galizia which was killed in very short time  fucking great honest women for great kids,
what do you think this team need all this money to buy cool cars and show everyone they are the richest hell NO , for sure they drive in cool cars and live good yet they need to protect them self.

which mean if something will happen to kevin mitnick or edoward snowdan or others they have the power and MONEY to solve it once for all.

But u might ask a few P2P about

https://twitter.com/iang_fc/status/1148268836782780418

There are so dump people out there there is no words to explain there dumbness , like saying the founder of Bitcoin sv is Satoshi when ironaclly he clam that Bitcoin is not real crypto and in the same type say he the founder hhhhhhh , and there are more dumber people then this which think Satoshi is one person ,

Did you know that wiki leaks operation million times bigger then Bitcoin operation , do you know how much people all around the globe try to trace the oragnized group of people behind wiki leaks, hell it's facts not the dumb posts which overload this fourm,

All this hint from where Bitcoin come and by which people on the web,

So simple...
And when journalist receive information from this team they receive always under one name..

So heck and simple to know this and it's all facts not stupid concpiricy theories which come from super dumb people

almost everything can be traced ... you wrong and yes some people from bitcoin operation we will never get to them this is true.

Samsung Toshiba Nakamichi Motorola and Santa?
How high do you have to be?

Now for the real conspiracy

Satoshi showed up once again on April 23, 2011, when he emailed a software developer, Mike Hearn, with “I’ve moved on to other things. It’s in good hands with Gavin and everyone.” From then no one knows what Satoshi is up to.

Gavin self admits to being a CIA INFORMANT
https://youtu.be/6pWblf8COH4?t=335

Bitcoin in the hands of the CIA, Created by the IMF and FED? probably I would say 90% chance bitcoin was created by people thinking about money and who was thinking about money other than the banks that were starting to get exposed around 2000-today on the internet?  and that entire genesis block pointing out the banker bailouts is all reverse social engineering to dupe you to think it is anti banker. It is their Trojan horse out of the fiat system as they know the collapse is inevitable as there is no way to pay back the debts.  

Both the first two ip`s came from the same area code that Hal Finney lived in. Could Hal just been remote viewing a office computer? Could Hal of been Satoshi playing around on two accounts like most people on this forum do? Could it explain why none of the coins have moved?

Anyways, serious talk, I am pretty sure they killed Satoshi and if you read the first sentence of the whitepaper you will understand bitcoin was not suppose to be a stock or investment. It was meant to be a non shit money supply and you fucks piss all over Satoshi`s grave every time you use fiat or sell bitcoin for fiat. Just use the fucking currency as a currency. I earned 4 bitcoins and spent 0 fiat, I got a computer, laptop, chair, clothes and meds and used no fiat. For real read the first sentence of the whitepaper, U$D is a financial institution you dumb fucks.

This first naming


clearly hints for it's legit purpose.  Not just a store of value - with high fees...

And sure Satoshi was the creator of a new eCash - so he knew that he might Need highest privacy - and still ppl do not reall know who he is. - So he was good to manage that bit.

Bitcoin protocol is NOT that private - at will, for a purpose.  It lacks a lot of 'anonymity features' - thogh for a purpose - it's was designed that way.

> To get accepted by the globe (incl financial institutes, gov, mearchants, ...) for honest business.

Satoshi Nakamoto is a fictional character to whom we can't suspect as one because he is not only an inventor of Bitcoin but also a father/mother of an astonishing technology i.e. Blockchain which makes him a never-dying fictional character.

What if Satosi Nakamoto is just a fictional character behind whom there is a whole group of developers. I think that Bitcoin created a government of one of the countries (USA, China) to use this new industry further in its favor  :-\ :-\

Satoshi Nakamoto is a team.  Hal Finney, Dave Kleiman, Craig Steven Wright should be the members.

https://github.com/Time02/SatoshiTimeLine

This is a great post. It is fun to follow the updates on who's Satoshi, it has became like Area 51 everyone want to know what is happening inside :D 

Satoshi is not dead and I'm back they tried to let me forget about everything I did and they deleted my post here on bitcoin talk today and yesterday..
Governement is here and watching.
We need protect bitcoin network and explain what other government project are doing like XRP RSR AND DAPS , they are hiding they are working with governement.. and trying to do what they did already for years inside blockchain

That's what I thought too, that they are group of people but they are hiding their identity, what's the scariest thing that will happen is that if they are group of people and that is why they are hiding their selves identity is that the are planning something bigger that will shock the whole world and that is when the price of Bitcoin became $50k or more that they will sell it.

Hello you are back ?

Welcome back, nice try.

And in General, if in fact there is a group of people behind bitcoin, it is not clear what the purpose of their invention is?If the goals are clear-why then hide?It's a dilemma that makes me worry.

you need to explain me in wich software and for what to begin if you realy want to help me i'm late for 10 years man.

Thank you for your understanding.

Satoshi was highly dedicated to keep his identity anonymous. He planned the exit from bitcoin even before he started working on it. He maintained anonymity with (almost) everyone he interacted to. He has a flawless American English and (intentionally) uses British spellings and phrases occasionally. This makes the theory of Satoshi being a famous person or a famous organization more valid than any other.

Yes a real Genius  ;)

You are losing control and are realy non-professional guy, i stole nothing you probably need a break in what you are doing.

"you should be dead at your twenty" you mean.

In your dream maybe its happening like this.

I can understand your frustration.

Wow, this is a really interesting story. It's been long I took a long time in reading a story or post in this forum. I would usually just skim through them, but this one, lol, I got my eyes fixed on the screen scrolling slowly down and read everything. This is really interesting and you should keep it up, if there's still more you can be updating it here in case.

I would really love to know who is this Satoshi Nakamoto and why he has decided to stay in hiding. Such a person really deserves a prize, this is a really big work he did here and I'm surprised you said he's not really a programmer, but likely someone that recently learnt programming at the time he developed Bitcoin. Damn!. How has he been able to keep his identity secret to this day? I guess this wasn't planned in a day.

The individual in question is not in the OP.   ;D

So my hints:
Dan Fabulich - specialized in biomedical engineering and philosophy, Satoshi Nakamoto is japan scientist in biology, Nakamoto is also a japan philosopher. Additionally there is a lot of papers about cryptography and similar where papers of David Chaum are nearby papers of S.N. also Satoshi is popular word and I've found few times that such articles like "Impact of Artificial "Gummy" Fingers on Fingerprint Systems" are next to cryptocurrency and decentralized economy papers. Also there are multiple references to "she" - IMO: Sarah Flannery.

So in my opinion, people related at least in philosophy to David Chaum created this person in some very private mailing list, took almost random name, like Satoshi Nakamoto cause someone had his paper opened to read (in addition Tominaga Nakamoto philosophy is related to BTC).
It is especially interesting that David Chaum didn't liked the idea that one person - initiator - can become rich, like become lord of the world with unlimited resources.
In the end all of them decided that they will never use first bitcoins.

pro hint: if you are searching mailing list archives for such things like interpunction, double spaces etc, dont check emails - most are altered, check those emails how they looks like in replies quotations.

...

Whilst not being the same candidate I've found in my own research ...

I guess when even Escobar Inc. is asserting that Craig S. Wright is NOT satoshi, one kind of has to agree!

I read this earlier and I think the crucial word is Fantastical ! But as you also said they are also discrediting CSW - so not all nonsense  :)

Research papers likely written by the real Satoshi Nakamoto ...
