Title: Poll: Did we found the real identity of the creator of Bitcoin?
Post by: porcupine87 on March 06, 2014, 10:16:43 PM
Sorry for another thread, I am just curious. Do you think the creator of Bitcoin does like trains?

Good poll.

I think it is him.  Though their are legit questions, for sure.  Biggest two for me:

1) Why he'd go to such lengths to hide his identity and then be using his real name ? Doesn't make a lot of sense to be so paranoid and then...use your real name. But is conceivable if you consider he never expected bitcoin to be so big that people would try to track down every Satoshi N in the world.

2) Why he seems to have financial and health problems yet never tapped into his bitcoins.

I think it is him though... people are complicated. And often, the more intelligent the person, the more.... complicated their personality is. People are not fully logical and the contradictions seem to be consistent, so ya, I think it is him. I'd say I'm 70% sure if I had to put a number on it.

glendall,

yeah those are the two most glaring contradictions in this whole story. People are complex creatures though.

Don't think it's him. Even if it was one person, he wouldn't be that easy to find.

It's him.

He's a flawed human being, but who amongst us is perfect.  His personal life is complex and he's probably hated by several people in his family, namely his brothers.

His one perfect idea though....brilliant and groundbreaking!

His story reminds me of the movie "A Beautiful Mind", the story of John Nash.  Genius yet very flawed.  No, Satoshi doesn't have schizoprenia, but he does seem to have social illness, paranoia, and very real heart conditions.  Doesn't seem like he'll get to enjoy his prized idea for too long.

My 2 BTC

I think I can answer the first question.  He never expected Bitcoin to gain this much popularity.  If you look at his last posts before he disappeared, he was against using Bitcoins to fund Wikileaks because of the publicity it might bring. I actually now think that might have been the reason why he vanished in the first place.
