I don't think we need to find out who the guy behind bitcoin is really. It is better off people don't know who satoshi is so he doesn't get prosecuted by federal authorities. If we had a bitcoin leader, it would really contradict the open nature of the technology.

Signatures? How about learning a skill... I don't care either way. Everybody has to make a living somehow.

What I find very interesting is that it requires a centralized entity in order to direct consensus. in all seriousness, Chuck Norris aside, I think you guys may be missing the bigger picture here.

At this moment many of the things Nick Szabo is saying, is the truth. Some people here would gladly dismiss him as being Satoshi, because it does not fit their agenda if he was Satoshi. It is true that we currently have a kind of Civil war going on. Gavin was the previous leader, and now he wants back in. Mike Hearn created the revolution to take over control from the Core guys and Gavin is supporting this.
Nick Szabo might not be Satoshi, but his views and the technology he created <Bit Gold> is the closest to what Satoshi had in mind, when he or they created Bitcoin.
We do not want another PayPal. Thanks.
The same argument can be used the other way round. Szabo is quoted Satoshi because he made his position clear and this position fits their view. Nobody here want a new paypal, then what? Well I guess we give the people a viable and working alternative to PayPal. Something not governed by a single person or a group, who will censor or ban users with lower fees and no charge backs. How does that sound? Let people decide who they want their Satoshi to be, if that gives them comfort. We do not need to steer them in a direction we want them to follow. ^hmmm^

Satoshi is anon developer who abandoned his project just like all the other devs who make pump and dumps. Bitcoin is the biggest pump and dump in the history of PnDs,

Good to me. Paypal is around 100 transaction/sec so that would be at least a 15MB block as a start . This sound more like Satoshi's view than Szabo to me.

The cost of mediation increases transaction costs, limiting the minimum practical transaction size and cutting off the possibility for small casual transactionsSatoshi Nakamoto : https://bitcoin.org/bitcoin.pdf

Bitcoin is the biggest pump and dump in the history of PnDs, bitcoin is nothing compared to stock pump and dumps. beside that, bitcoin is still here while not many expected that at the very beginning of bitcoin. satoshi most likely left as his side of the job was finished.

Like how bitcoin works, satoshi should be left anonymous to everyone. There is an advantage in it and some people don't understand this.

Forever thankful to Satoshi, s/he is a genius for putting this experiment together, but when you look at it s/he basically just put together a bunch of pieces that were already around and possible only now at the time we live in. We all stand on the shoulders of giants.

There's a reason Satoshi decided to remain anonymous. He didn't want to become a 'Steve Jobs' - He wanted Bitcoin to develop from the efforts of a community, rather than from the mouth of a dictator...

They're just inside jokes of sorts I'm sure. It doesn't matter who Satoshi is, as he is gone and wants to be alone. It is what it is.

I think Satoshi has said everything that needed to be said in the protocol.

Not to the scoop-hungry bloggers and reporters who make a desperate attempt at getting the big hit. You should look around and there will probably be a "Satoshi FOUND!" blog/news article claiming some random guy is Satoshi. I have long past begun to ignore such articles.

To be honest, I still feel like Satoshi is all of us. He lives within all of us, therefore we all are Satoshi.
