many people talking about it

[Mr.right85]

I've heard many rumors that Satoshi Nakamoto is of Russian origin and that Bitcoin was created in Russia. Many online forums discuss this topic. What do you think?

I think without any proof, rumors would always be welcomed to spread and would easily be seen to be true by feeble minds (I don’t mean you OP, let me get that point clear), that see any importance in this kind of claims.

The origin of Satoshi Nakamoto wasn’t meant to be traced or known. Even up to this moment, no one can clearly phantom on if, Satoshi Nakamoto is a single individual or a group of developers who go by that unanimous name.
How then do you get to attach an origin to such a character.

The anonymous nature of the character is good and has actually served Bitcoin well, instead of being interested in the origin of Satoshi Nakamoto, we should rather focus on the technology about Bitcoin and how to see it last in our world.

it's probably just another "shot in the dark" theory. but out of curiosity, can you share the thread where they talked about this rumor? I am curious to read as to what they are basing their theory on. I mean, was there any indication that Satoshi was of Russian decent or something?

Reddit is a social platform and anybody with a username there can amke any post they feel to make with unfounded claims just to arouse unnecessary discussions. And don't be surprised, for the moderator there to have deleted the thread it's a clear indication that it's all shits they probably be talking about with no forensic evidence attached. Try to pay less attention to rumors about who Satoshi is or where he/they are from and rather channel that enthusiasm to developing your knowledge about bitcoin and how you can succeed financially with it. My two cents!

I don't even care where Satoshi comes from, and where the Bitcoin was created. I only care about how to collect as many as possible for my future.

You took the thought right off my head. I don't care about his origins or where he disappeared to. The man is a legend and I doff my heart for him. And right now what I really care and think about are- how to accumulate more Bitcoin and help the community grow and make the world a better place through Bitcoin and it's technologies. It matters more than what I think.

If you want to know about the origin of Satoshi I think you have to do a lot of research and it will be different, as long as Bitcoin remains Bitcoin I don’t care about the origin of Satoshi or take it important to know about Satoshi, the only thing I can say every individual is care about is how the bitcoin will grow to another and help those who believe in it, although you must know much about it knowing about bitcoin and who created it but it is not that important to know about Satoshi before you invest, the main thing is to understand the technology and understand the bitcoin itself, I know some people might want to know more about it but trust is the main thing you need before engaging in any concerning cryptocurrency.

The name Satoshi Nakamoto sounds like a Japanese names but the creation of Bitcoin till now there is no real identity of Satoshi Nakamoto and where he is from, he made Bitcoin looks anonymously. If not that he made Bitcoin anonymous, the government would have used their power and their position to manipulate him.

I can also make a clamp that Satoshi Nakamoto is from my country of residence but don't ask me to prove it. The discussion about where Satoshi Nakamoto lives or is from has become a big mystery that no one has been able to solve because he understood the impact when identities are spread so that it makes the security system much more complicated to find him. His work has been known worldwide and many people have benefited from what he created so that we start to forget which country he came from.

At first I knew bitcoin and really wanted to know who Satoshi Nakamoto was but after I studied it further it seemed that Satoshi Nakamoto's identity was not needed because bitcoin was created so perfectly for us to use now. So it's better like now and his identity doesn't need to be known by anyone for his security.

Okay , if we dont know the identity of the creator how can we know the true purpose of creating BTC in the first place?

i know there plenty many many good reasons for creating it but there always in the shadows hiding the true intention of making it

There are so many people discussing this that I have never even heard of it.

What online forums are you talking about? This is the main forum in the BTC-community, but I haven't seen any discussions like this here (except yours).

What are these assumptions based on? There must be direct or indirect facts that suggest that the creator of bitcoin Satoshi Nakamoto is from Russia.

A bit of speculation.
Even if this is true, does it really matter? What matters is what benefits bitcoin provides, not who created it and in what country.

Personally, I don't care about the origin of the creator of bitcoin. I appreciate his contribution that changed the world.

Of what importance will this rumor be to us if it was true and not just speculations. Does it matter where Satoshi is from? He has removed himself from Bitcoin and Bitcoin has grown this popular and stronger without him so his origins doesn't matter to the community anymore. He has done his part and it's left for us to continue his legacy from where he stopped. Bitcoin is more of the people's project and everybody is contributing to the success of the currency so even though Satoshi is from North Korea, I don't think anybody cares.

It shouldn't come as a shock that this rumors are from people that don't want to see Bitcoin progressing and looking for lies to spread. Beside how are we to believe you when there's no links to your claims or are we just to believe you when you say many online forum are discussing the matter? Well even though they do, we don't have to discuss it because nobody gives a fuck where Satoshi is from. He give us one of the most incredible inventions mankind will ever create and that's a decentralized currency that is independent and not regulated by the governments.

...

Why would you need to know the identity of a creator to assess the "true purpose" of its creation or ideas? I don't care who invents something good or interesting, unless those creators have proven to be deeply evil in the past.


Have you even taken the time to read and understand(!) the Bitcoin Whitepaper? What do you think was the reason for the cited headline from The Times newspaper in the Bitcoin genesis block (besides proving a timestamp)?

Satoshi Nakamoto likely didn't like what common crooked financial systems and their supporting crooked politicians and governments were doing. He had the idea to create something which is trustless, safe, point-to-point, decentralized and governed by math and energy (proof-of-work) solving crucial problems that digital currencies prior had. Good enough reasons for me.

Oh and btw Bitcoin is still safe after more than 15 and a half years and with a total market cap of around 1.26 trillion $$$ at present.
