http://6abc.com/news/angus-deaton-wins-nobel-prize-in-economics/1019212/Who won? Angus Deaton
What did he do? Deaton's work has helped redefine how poverty is measured around the world.
Why is it important? Deaton's work has helped governments better understand individual consumption choices and how they impact broader economies. The Nobel committee says the award revolved around Deaton's study of three central questions: "How do consumers distribute their spending among different goods?" "How much of society's income is spent and how much is saved?" and "How do we best measure and analyze welfare and poverty?" Satoshi Nakamoto is overqualified.

Lol Economists.
Remember these two? Myron Scholes and Robert Merto. They won a Nobel price on 1994 based on some derivatives model idea they had then started a hedge fund based on that model. They failed miserably and lost billions.

Satoshi doesn't need to win it. Nobel prize has completely lost its values and has become just an instrument of the rich to justify their doings and to mislead the masses. I mean Obama has won it, what else we need to say.

And "helped redefine how poverty is measured"?? Did he make an economic model on how the elite take from the poor? Because that would be really interesting.

These Nobel Prizes have become a joke like Obama and that Malala girl getting them. I think most of us here would agree the creator of bitcoin should deserve one but doubt he would ever be considered.

ofc, what do you expect? nobody remember that now... Nobel Prize is like a circus, only think that really matter is the ammount of $ that it generates... I think most of us here would agree the creator of bitcoin should deserve one but doubt he would ever be considered.
if people are honest, bitcoin is by far the best innovative technology in the last years, but people have his own interest and vanity....

I think the idea of having blockchain means more than that. And if that doesn't fulfill the criteria of having something that could be solving all the world economic issues and imbalances, then I'm not sure what else would. He's over qualified and that's for sure. Perhaps the biggest obstacle here is the anonymity part.

I think this is an interesting question. I think it's very likely that he will get the Nobel Prize in Economics one day. Although I'm sure it is against the current policies to give the price to anonymous people, I am confident they will make an exception in this case. In a generation's time, very likely almost everyone alive will have heard his name. And as many have pointed out, his contribution towards economics has been many orders of magnitudes greater than your average prize recipient.
It is even possible that he will get the Peace prize.

Who knows? Maybe one day this can be possible. Important to have the Nobel is who proposes the person who pretend the prize. And the age. Rarely is given to new peoples. Satoshi Nakamoto is (must or can be) yet young or middle-aged man. If bitcoin will become important in the future there can be to many Authorities which can take this initiative. And he will become important. Even is an hidden person. But yet there are people which has received the Nobel prize even after their death. So it will be not a surprise if it will be given at an person which is hidden. But there is yet to much time ahead for him in which he can have this prize. But I repeat: important is the destiny of bitcoin as a currency.

There is no Nobel Prize in economics, just a prize founded by the Swedish central bank who successfully piggybanked on Nobel's name.

There is no Nobel Prize in economics, just a prize founded by the Swedish central bank who successfully piggybanked on Nobel's name.
It is true but is true even the fact that is treated and awarded in the same way like the other Nobel prizes. From the Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nobel_Memorial_Prize_in_Economic_Sciences" The Nobel Memorial Prize in Economic Sciences (officially Swedish: Sveriges riksbanks pris i ekonomisk vetenskap till Alfred Nobels minne, or the Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel), commonly referred to as the Nobel Prize in Economics, and as a " category of the Nobel Prize" by the Nobel Foundation itself, which owns the name Nobel Prize, is an award for outstanding contributions to the field of economics, and generally regarded as the most prestigious award for that field. It is not one of the prizes that Alfred Nobel established in his will in 1895, but instead was established 73 years later by a donation to the foundation from Sweden's central bank, the Sveriges Riksbank, on the bank's 300th anniversary. Winners are announced with the Nobel Prize winners, and receive the award at the same ceremony."

I don't want to sound like a conspiracy guy but im pretty sure the Nobel Prize has an agenda behind it just like everything that has that "officialism" halo around it, so I wouldn't count into Satoshi being given such a recognition by mainstream media, or at least not anytime soon. Maybe in decades. Right now im sure no one of the judges even know what Bitcoin is or understand it.
