What if Satoshi was revealed to be Charles Manson

[celestio]

Everyone on OP's list is either; dead, incarcerated, fiction, or too idiotic to actually have developed Bitcoin(Of course the OP is just sarcastic). But, to answer the question, no it wouldn't matter the person(s) behind the name, what matters is that the product at a protocol level is decentralized, so Satoshi could be {insert name(s)} and it wouldn't matter as he/she/they have no control over Bitcoin.

I think, we need an explicit board only to discuss Satoshi.

Yes please this. Save me from another Satoshi thread.

[BlindMayorBitcorn]

I think Satoshi is still an active member of this forum and just changed his name. That means I'd still use Bitcoin even if Satoshi was a scammer or a lunatic because you're all scammers and lunatics. I say that with lots of love though. lol

Not unless he's a lurker; there are only a handful of reasonable posters left. It would be a short list.

Szatoshi threads. Szatoshi threads everywhere!!

Would I be pissed off... Yes. Would I stop using it?... No.

There are many people or groups of people, who did things, which we did not agree with and they still caused a ripple in the pond.

You took Hitler as a example. {I am not saying what he did was right in any way} In the 2cnd world war, Coca cola could not be distributed to many countries, who were at war, so they created their own popular
alternative fizzy drink.... It is now known as "Fanta" or Orange flavored soda. {This is a bad example, but it's something, that has come from something evil}

It is also rumoured that many groundbreaking medical procedures and medicine, has been developed through experiments that has been done on people in concentration camps. {This is in NO way justified, but we still knowingly or unknowingly use these medicine and procedures}

Yeah, that's a pretty bad example but if you want a WWII example I'll hook you up. Josef Mengele, also known as the Angel of Death, performed a multitude of savage experiments on men, women and lots of children. There is no way any civilized society would have allowed his brand of savagery; however, his experiments quite possibly advanced modern medicine by 50 years. Following is a list of the things he experimented on.

Experiments on twins
Bone, muscle, and nerve transplantation experiments
Head injury experiments
Freezing experiments
Malaria experiments
Immunization experiments
Mustard gas experiments
Sulfonamide experiments
Sea water experiments
Sterilization experiments
Experiments with poison
Incendiary bomb experiments
High altitude experiments

If it is proven that Charles Manson is the creator of Bitcoin, then for me it will not make any difference. But it will be quite an achievement for him, to create a crypto-currency while being imprisoned at the California State Prison in Corcoran. 

his experiments quite possibly advanced modern medicine by 50 years.

Josef Mengele was a monster and devil incarnate. His experiments had no medical value at all. He was more interested in torturing his victims, than finding any medicinal cure to any of the diseases or syndromes which are effecting the human kind.

If Charles Manson is bitcoin creator, maybe he will be a hero for us. But, I'm not sure about him and still want to know who the real is .

go read about what the japanese done to the chinese and these don't seem that bad. Yet they got away with it completely by giving the data to the US. With all the chinese victims, I don't think China got any of the experiment data.

Say what? lol

I wouldn't call Manson a hero if he made bitcoin, I'd still support it even if he did but it would make convincing my friends and family to invest in it just a little bit harder (not much more though...). Think we've already got enough loons and psychos on this forum

What if Satoshi was revealed to be Jibbers Crabst, our barnacled Lord and Savior?



Mmm, I hope he comes with butter.

[ajareselde]

If bitcoin is created by something evil the it's the government, not a single individual. Would make sense also, first the get you hooked on TOR, then the spice it up with bitcoin..
But what would be the agenda behind this, you don't put bullets in your opponents gun ..

[bryant.coleman]

There is hardly any chance for that. Right now, Bitcoin is one of the most powerful tools which can be used against the centralized governemnt. And why should the government create something which can be used against it? I am not sure whether Bitcoin was created by a single individual or a group of them. But definitely, it was not the government.

Or it's one of the best tools the governments ever had. What if the government put a microchip on money that created a ledger showing every exchange of every penny between individuals. That would be a pretty amazing tool wouldn't it?

Read this, it's actually pretty cool how far Bitcoin Forensics has come is such a short time: http://fc14.ifca.ai/papers/fc14_submission_11.pdf

This makes me think of the <Pinky and the Brain> animated series, where the brain wanted to rule the world.
We would never know, but some underground organization might be behind it.
The http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Illuminati had a hand in the fiat system, and they are brilliant and very clever people. Why not Crypto currencies? Where is the Kill SWITCH?

[jacktheking]

Voted for No. Well, I dont know who is Charles Manson. So I take it as it is Hitler. If it is revealed that Satoshi Nakamoto was Hitler (say.. he is still alive), I dont think the public will change their option toward Bitcoin. Unless Hitler came back to develop Bitcoin, that is another story.

It's okay if you don't call him a hero, even you had bitcoins from him. Anyways, it's just a speculation and no chance to him as a creator. I think the creator looks like Bill Gates, Zuckerberg, or other genius men maybe
