Satoshi Nakamoto's first post sale

[btcsmlcmnr]

I doubt elon will spend its money to such thing, never seen he made purchase to some existing NFTs.

It is a hype for NFT and people are losing minds with NFT. The technical world have solutions to archive and to prove ownerships before the NFT.

That NFT hype reminds me the crazy time with Crypto kitties in 2017 and people were over optimistic about what Ethereum, ERC-20, falls can change the world. They hope to see it in near future

Imagine that Satoshi Nakamoto reappears and wants to auction his first Bitcoin Talk post as an NFT

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5.msg28#msg28

At what price do you think it would be sold?

Of course, with a proof that it is him and he who sells it.

 

I know that you are talking about a hypothetical but hypothetical scenarios need to have some remote chance of happening, if satoshi appeared once again in the forum it is way more likely that he will make a statement like he securely deleted every single one of his private keys and he has no access to them anymore than to try to auction any of his posts or the whitepaper of bitcoin in order to raise some cash, and even that scenario is a stretch as he is not ever coming back.

[Lmaooo]

Well, the NFT world is getting crazier day by day, and no one knows exactly whether the NTFs have a future or not. Artists are now selling their arts for millions of dollars for just minting them on the Ethereum blockchain. Imagine, if Satoshi would return and mints his first post on the bitcoin blockchain? that would definitely be worth hundreds of millions $$$ no doubt.

Wouldn't pay for someone's farts, let alone a digital imprint. Why give something such pointless monetary value? What are we going to sell next? Finney's first Tweet about Bitcoin? Is his widow or family going to pop up online and sell that?

And you do realise selling an NFT on all these things don't mean the owners are going to have any rights to reproduction at all, yeah? Besides the point that they shouldn't, they actually can't.

That's an interesting question, and I actually think it's possible to make reasonable estimates. For instance, Jack Dorsey's first post on Twitter was recently sold for $2.9 million. Twitter is way more popular than Bitcointalk or Bitcoin, so I think the price for Satoshi's tweet would be definitely lower than that. Twitter has around 192 million users. According to these estimates, a number of people using Bitcoin is 106 million. The difference is actually not as big as I thought it would be, but I think that the amount of users can be taken to make an estimate of popularity and thus financial interest in the first post, so I'd say the post would be sold for around $1.5 million. But of course, the auction would be in BTC, so the amount in BTC would be around 27 bitcoins.

I read somewhere his account has been locked forever, he would not have the ability to access it even if he wants to. It depends on how much he places it for sell, depends on his buyers and I'm sure too many people don't even know about this forum. How would they be able to buy his post? Of what use would it be to them? These hypes from NFT are getting interesting already, hoping to see it for the next 1 year.

Satoshi Nakamoto did not appear when bitcoin reach a milestone of 50,000$ and you think he will come in front of public only to sell his NFT post ?
That's not going to happen in the first place but if by any chance he does come up with this idea, his NFT post will be sold beyond imagination as people will be willing to pay billions of dollar for this.

[Darker45]

It will definitely fetch millions, tens of millions probably. But it will also surely be heavily criticized. That's just to answer your what if question.

In reality, though, it will not happen. It is probably less likely to happen than the sun would rise in the west tomorrow evening. But, yeah, sometimes it is fun to just imagine things and create far-fetched scenarios.

[nelson4lov]

I gues satoshi post will worth more than a Billon's of dollar because people like Elon musk will lead in the bid and so and so many other top money bags will have a money power play to grab the post into they possession.

Just to be clear, why would satoshi ever want to auction out his post as an NFT? I also don't understand why people would be lining up to throw monies at things like that especially since it's already available to the general public.

I read somewhere his account has been locked forever, he would not have the ability to access it even if he wants to. It depends on how much he places it for sell, depends on his buyers and I'm sure too many people don't even know about this forum. How would they be able to buy his post?

NFTs are the new gold-mine for crypto enthusiasts. It seems to be the only thing about crypto that trends with each passing day. Despite the popularity of NFTs, it's very unlikely that we'll be seeing satosji stopping by after all this years to auction his post. Very, very unlikely.

Especially since we are using cryptocurrencies and bitcoin is the creator of this market if anything that he did was signed by him then we can be sure that whatever he did will be worth a fortune, the only problem is that I do not think he will use any other network other than bitcoin in order to sign his work, after all it would be incredibly ironic if he used anything other than the bitcoin network for that , do not you think the same as well?

It looks like you’ve already got it up for sale (as a tribute):

Actually, if we search around on the above site, and search for Bitcointalk, there are other curious instances of forum-related things up for sale ...

Only a minimum auction would reach 1 million dollars, although it would be a sensationalism of origin, it is that just the appearance of Satoshi Nakamoto is worth millions, it would be only an auction for those who want to talk to him.
