It's very interesting to see this research and what you underwent to go through this remarkable discovery. I do think though that I like the mystery behind Satoshi's anonymity and it takes it for a great story to tell our kids and grandkids as the years go by, that we were all involved in this mysterious event called the birth of Bitcoin, or Genesis as it were. If Satoshi wants to remain anonymous and not found, I think it's best to keep it that way, in respect of his desire to remain anonymous, but if ever he was to go public, then your findings would be a great testament to that.
This is an interesting post and totally agree that there is no need for the wider public to know the identity; and this is the main reason why we did not reveal the ultimate person we found. Since publication we have been approached by multiple parties that offered monetary offers for the info which we turned down. However there is one part that we disagree with, which includes a lot of whats posted publicly - where people state that it does not matter.
Once the pieces were put together it becomes clear that a big part of the crypto-sphere do not want Satoshi/Satoshi knowledge to be found for selfish monetary reasons. This is the main reason for the crypto civil-war of the last 5 years. Not only do we think we have found Satoshi, but the place Satoshi did his development, research and mining using an organisations PCs (surprisingly most wont believe Satoshi was not rich and only owned an average spec PC himself, but had access to resources!). So we have come up with a 2020 manifesto to take crypto to the next level; as its clear no-one received Satoshis full codebase, research and notes when (including dev code for scalability and other info)!. This will only help end the Crypto civil-war and complete the original whitepaper. This will be our contribution.
#1. Discover the real Satoshi Nakamoto ✅
#2. Find location of mining computer(s) ✅
#3. Contract with source organisation(s)
#4. Restore IT backups from 2008/2009
#5. Recover unpublished code + research
#6. Create new IP and scale beyond VISA
Your OP is fascinating. I (like everyone I guess) am too very intrigued by Satoshi's figure. Not just knowing the name (maybe that can be skipped at all), but learning all the historical stuff is really interesting. Not only seeing how Satoshi tried to (and managed to) convince people to use a revolutionary system like Bitcoin... the back and forth it all generated, all questions Satoshi was asked (and how Satoshi managed to answer them) is really educational to read.
Having said that, I'm skeptical on how you would manage to restore offline backups Satoshi might had. Legally talking, obviously. I guess you would need to go there physically (or somehow get Satoshi to share you things never shared before). If we are talking about someone who paid a domain in an untraceable way back in then, I'm 100% positive everything was wiped from any machines Satoshi ever worked in.
We created a Discord server (
