It is intriguing and all of us is really curious about the real identity of Satoshi Nakamoto. This details and speculation about him is great. I am wondering why Satoshi had been inactive for a long time. Could it be that the creator of bitcoin is already dead?
He surely did a great job hiding his identity. I guess it is really best to let him be anonymous since he doesn't really intend to reveal himself.
for all we know this could be the NSA/CIA and FED`S exit strategy, let`s be real who would be thinking about money? BANKERS, I think it is best for them to reveal themselves. Although I truly believe it was a person who saw a problem with the system and attempted to fix it and they are the greatest whitehat of all time. Now there is new blood creating even better ideas, anyways Satoshi whether it is government or not is cool.

Even if it doesn’t sink Bitcoin, it’s just not fair. People complain about the US govt printing money. Why should these fools just get to print money and own bitcoin?
Check out my video, I have the solution to this, the post is (bitcoin/gold) Limited Supply Problem, so now we all make are own currency. Now everyone can print ^_^ Also bitcoin itself is another mans money supply, Sure there was mining but they got in early.

One interesting argument I've been following is by Peter Schiff who is permbull on gold and quite pessimistic on bitcoin is that you can fork bitcoin and therefore we can't talk about limited supply.
But it wouldn't be Bitcoin, I get it. It would be Bitcoin2 or whatever. However the properties would be the same the only thing it doesn't have is the trust and network right.

I wonder why they want to go back to gold standard, THEY OWN IT ALL. Guess what happens when we go back to gold, watch the video at the start of this post, not to mention using a resource we need to make computers and electronics and stuff to go to space as your currency is not the brightest. A year earlier, in 1933, Executive Order 6102 had made it a criminal offense for U.S. citizens to own or trade gold anywhere in the world, with exceptions for some jewelry and collector's coins. ... By 1975 Americans could again freely own and trade gold. Yah let`s go back to gold Peter Chiff!

This is great read, I also was trying to match his text to others in this forum, I think I got a hint of who his/her new smurf is, One thing is for sure, when the bitcoins move from the whale wallets and buy anything, We will all know for sure, or when he/she has the balls to stand up and not live in fear and explain to the people why they created this. The bankers live in fear not us. This person needs to get a nobel prize. I think everyone on this forum would die for Satoshi, Well I would that is for sure.

There has already been 44 forks https://thenextweb.com/hardfork/2018/05/22/bitcoin-hard-fork-useless/I got to say, people using or investing in anything like that is silly, It it pretty much like investing into counterfeit fiat. Trading your gold for fake gold. You want silver use litecoin(or another altcoin that actually has more tech features) not bitcoin cash or diamond or private. Infact the guy that created bitcoin cash, Satoshi should sue him for copyright and counterfeiting. Correct, but right now you are leaving 81% trust to the Chinese as that is where most of the hashing power is coming from, I do agree the Chinese miners are 1/3rd of the population and should have 33.3333 of the hashing power but not 81% in one country that is not a smart "decentralized" network, Instead each person on the network should have equal hashing power to provide equal distribution and a network not prone to 51% attacks. But yah, if the fork becomes the main chain that people use, then it does become "bitcoin" Example: (Eth classic is the real eth, but more people use ETH now and ETH is considered the main chain. If the network agrees to reset the chain and go back to before the fork then that would be the bitcoin. It is up to the censuses of the network, just keep in mind 81% of the users in the censuses are from China. That does not appeal to me as I am from Canada and unlike my country they seem to work together better, like a hive mind colony. So it is up to the network to decide what is Bitcoin or "Bitcoin2" From what I understand, maybe another member can give insight into this.

Yes, you got it right i can smell something fishy that has to do with govt regulation(s). Presently, i donot how how this is going to affect us a part of btc communty but, for sure it will put most people a tight corner. Most trader's who has insight has started making plan in case if, this should take place in future. *Unfortunately, they fail to warn or alert other member's. The experience, i had today is not a good sign when i was trying to sell-off bitcoin in my wallet. Let's hope is not what most of us has been predicting over a period of year's now Because, if, it is, it will make trading unprofitable to most of us. For now, i'll like to keep this very brief without going into detail's NOTE : "i wise son see's danger and take heed but, i fool caught there-in !!"The person who kill's a prophet might likely kill the decendant of that prophet!!Thanks Btcseoahh, I know what this man is talking about, According to the horoscope Cancer and the alignment of the Orion's Belt belt we can triangulate the pattern using the fusion time continum transfunctioner, we can smell into the future and know a big bad spooky time. hes got 5 stars hero member though, he must know something *clicks profile -8 trust* Evil does not exist buddy.

We've heard exchange getting hacked and millions of dollar worth crypto being stolen. Last year, Myetherwallet was exposed and hacker penetrated and stole alot. Scam ICO made away with millions in recent years. Crypto traders and investors are taking precautions so as to not fall victim. This doesn't guarantee Scam free Crypto space coz right now someone is being scam.
What could be the biggest Crime in cryptocurrency
Mt.Gox was and will always be the biggest crime, in terms of number of bitcoins, but perhaps not usd$. That Mark Karpeles is laughing with everyone's coins still. He will come out of his 3 month prison sentence with billions. He should be hung, the amount of lives he ruined is as bad as the bankers. https://www.coindesk.com/mt-goxs-mark-karpeles-found-guilty-given-2-6-year-suspended-sentence

Bitcoin should be forked and Satoshi's 1 million Bitcoin destroyed completely, if he really owns that much. A sudden withdrawal of of 1 million (or large gradual withdrawals) should be regarded as an attack on Bitcoin.
Or it should be frozen for now until developers are sure no one is going to withdraw the whole thing and crash the market.
I mean the fed could just print a bunch of money and crash the price to 0 if they wanted to. they would buy it all up and just sell it at a loss... they don`t care. Leave satoshi`s coins alone, he or she earned them just like everyone else, sure he/she had mad advantage because of higher rewards but still it is the same with gold, whoever was there first collecting had a bigger advantage because scarcity was less common. Also in the future it will reveal who satoshi is when they move the coins.

What would be the top things you would advise on or suggest to someone who’s thinking of buying BTC?
Mine would probably be;
1 Before investing, spend time learning about cryptocurrencies and blockchain in general
2 Don’t look at it as get rich quick scheme, but as a long investment
3 Learn ways to keep your bitcoin safe and secure.
4. Don`t buy it, earn it. we should get used to earning bitcoin rather than buying them

Whether or not the electronic money through the future is easy is a difficult question. Firstly, in terms of economic integration, this is very difficult now because each country has its own face value and money, it is difficult to synchronize, another difficulty is that the legal is unclear because each country has one private law. Secondly, the political, military, and information technology are uneven, leading to access to electronic money is not virtual reality. So how to solve this problem?
the main problem is it forces the slavery system model again when supply is mined, there is a simulation called huntercoin youtube it, you can see the biggest threat is diminishing supply, with bitcoin it is dust, lost passwords. Even if people would never lose their keys, since it is all mined from nature, they will end killing each other, google "man robbed for bitcoin" and just read some of the headlines.

I would like to take up the points of an article published on Bitcoinist. (Even if some will say that this media is Pro-Bitcoin the points are the most important.) 1. Laws Can’t Be Written Against Bits and Bites 2. You Can’t Ban Open-Source Distributed Software 3. Bitcoin Can Be Broadcasted via Satellite 4. You can Send Bitcoin Via SMS 5. You Can’t Shut Down the Power Grid Any regulation can't prevent us from using Bitcoin. Despite their attempt to keep an eye on the system, it is simply impossible for them to ban people using it. So why giving a fuck to "I'm afraid my country will ban Bitcoin!" They have nothing to fully stop the ecosystem that is currently emerging. I mean they could shut down the power grid buddy, even mother nature or the sun or polar pole switch could do that without purposely trying to do it.... But people purposely trying to do it could. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_major_power_outages#Largest (no one is purposely trying to shut it down at the moment and there has been many already even Venezuela is still a lot offline)

Decentralization is one of the greatest dreams of Satoshi looking at the how the blockchain technology and its immutable distributed ledger has been designed. Well it saddens my heart that the greed of men has led to the abusing of this freedom and liberty that Satoshi wanted us to have in the financial industry. Look at the way people are being scammed and robbed in broad day light just because crypto is embedded in anonymity and decentralization. I think we've all had it to the peak, how about we have some level of regulation with the activities in the crypto industry. Share your thoughts commrades.
No, keep everything decentralized as much as you can, if you google that word it`s description is not so good, so a better term is censuses of entire network. decentralize: transfer (authority) from central to local government. "Canada has one of the most decentralized governments in the world" move departments of (a large organization) away from a single administrative center to other locations, usually granting them some degree of autonomy. Infact it should be a consensus of the entire network, a true democracy, not a representation of one like we have in Canada. 100 people in a gym and we elect Joe and Sally to be representatives for us. Joe wants to play hockey in the gym Sally wants to play basket ball in the gym 98 others want to play soccer in the gym but can`t because they voted people to vote for them Why not just vote on the issues at hand? then 98% of the people will be happy playing soccer. https://imgur.com/haz02ll

Your statement about China controlling majority of the hash power currently could change since they might effectively ban crypto mining in their country pretty soon which could help improve the decentralization aspect of Bitcoin.
Even though Bitcoin is centralized to an extent, it is still leaps and bounds better than traditional FIAT, gold etc which are almost completely centralized.
Hopefully, that decision of the Chinese government to stop Bitcoin mining activities within its boundaries can actually be doing good for the whole industry so that there will be no more concentration of has power in a single country going forward with the ideal decentralized state. Even though I am sure that many Chinese are still into Bitcoin, we should not allow a single country to be a major clout with this industry especially with a government with a closed mind. Well they should own 1/3rd of the hashing power, if we are going by populations and that is how hashing power should be divided between governments in the new system. but 81% is a little nutty. Imagine if they united into one pool. In fact hashing power should be equal from all people using the network, that is how you make fair distribution and fair rewards. Now if everyone is earning time tokens at the same duration, 1 second a second or 1 token a second, it is the same thing, kind of like this www.bitswift.cash , anyone can claim every time that bar fills up. as showing at this time stamp in the video https://youtu.be/Y7TLFyK_3Pk?t=846

Wait I figured it out, This may interest you, Whether it is compound interest or not interest makes it so you have to create more money supply which is more debt, Why not make reverse interest That is how we do it in this $ystem. I know I should get a noble nobel prize or something, no need to thank me. I am just using the gifts the creator of creators gave me.

Last weekend I spend some time with some of my relatives and one of them were playing a online game called, Forge of Empires. This is a browser-based strategy game with more than 10 million registered users The main goal of the game is to expand and develop a city beginning from the Stone Age and ending in the Virtual Future. (They even have Crypto currencies as a tradable commodity within the game) <Well, not actual Crypto currencies, just a in-game commodity> So after watching my nephew playing for 1 hour and talking to him, he revealed to me that he spend over $1000 on buying virtual diamonds in the game. <in 6 months> We started talking about real Crypto currencies and he immediately started the argument that Crypto currencies are "fake" money and that it was not real money or even a commodity. My counter argument floored him, because I asked him if the diamonds that he bought in the game was real or if the items that he bought in the game was real.? His whole perspective on Crypto currencies changed, when he realized that digital items can have a value and that the virtual items that he bought within the game had less value than the bitcoins that can be bought and sold. He asked me to help him buy some bitcoins and he was very happy after a week, when he saw his investment in the supposed "fake" money, going up in value when the price increased. Should we confront more people with the argument that most of the digital items that are bought online, might have less value than Crypto currencies. Ps. I emailed the developers of the game <InnoGames> and asked them if they might consider accepting Bitcoin as a payment option, but they gave the generic answer that they are open to new payment options, but they cannot give a timeframe for when this might happen. <I think more people should ask them> did you ask him if bitcoin is fake money what is usd,cad,euro and the yen?

Caveman Economics https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U_SVexaSMwk This is a pretty good system because at the end when we all go to collect our clams the bankers will not have any balls left to reproduce their genes into the pool.
