I'm gathering all theories about Satoshi Nakamoto

[coinerjoe]

He's a manufactured product of the NSA to fool libertarians into believing they are making a difference in society while at the same time integrating the cashless society proposed by NWO organizations like Tri Lateral Commission, UN , IMF and such.  There ya go!!!

Satoshi Nakamoto is a robot from the Future.

I would say the last one is more likely

Satoshi is dead, he died in the tsunami in 2011 in Japan. End of story.

His last activity on this forum is three months prior to that.

[coinnewbit]

I do feel he may be a mathematician

[DanielVG]

It's an A.I. gone rogue that escaped from a military lab.

interesting theory and an interesting response, we should gather informations about deaths in Japan 3 months before the tsunami and make a new super-theory

[BIGMERVE]

Looks like we actually found him. http://mag.newsweek.com/2014/03/14/bitcoin-satoshi-nakamoto.html

I didn't think this would really happen.

The CIA
Japanese names are presented with the surname first, this would make it Nakamoto Satoshi
In Japanese , Nakamoto means "central origin", while Satoshi means "clear thinking, quick witted,, wise", i.e intelligent. The name can therefore be translated to mean "Central Inteligent"

Since Nakamoto Satoshi is a Japanese name, shouldn't that be Japanese Central Intelligence?  Unless you want to say it's romanji then it might be Gaigin Central Intelligence or perhaps, CIA in Japan. However, I haven't seen a single instance where the last name came first so it must instead mean, intelligence central, which suggests Satoshi is not American.

If Nakamoto means central origin or "Source" and Satoshi means "Wisdom", Shouldn't the name mean "Source of Wisdom" or simply "Source Code?"

Well i have one more theory:
Samsung, Toshiba, Nakamichi & Motorola:
 Four technology companies
 All based in Japan
 The four companies would definitely have enough knowledgable people working for them to create such a concept, and cover their tracks well

isn't samsung korean?  lol

well .. it is...I will not any more post something that I had not checked... but this theory sounds fun...

those are just common Japanese syllables.  like er, ah, and something else in American

The thing is we don't even know if he is still alive. Recent article obviously was just abuse of some random dude with same name. Actually it wasn't even same name, we don't know Satoshi real name. We can be only sure it is his nickname. His not ordinary silence might be explained rather simple. He could be dead (i hope not, but many people are hit by a car every day, he were anonymous so no friend could tell it to the world). He could just start different project. Or maybe he just stay low to slowly cash his money without taxation and leave rest of his days on Palau (I'm betting on that).

So you think he isn't cashing out any money and he is not actively participating in the community

Maybe he is participating under an other name and he is only using btc from unknown addresses and keeping his main stack for whatever

Newsweek claims to have found him.

My theory is Satoshi is an alien connected into our internet remotely from his home planet, and likely not an individual but an alien societal project. Their objective is to create enormous wealth on earth without having to confirm their existence or create further suspicion of it. With this wealth they will buy up massive amounts of gold which they will ionize and use to terraform their atmosphere.

Dorian is a government plant as, retired CIA, and once they establish adequate credibility they will use him in an attempt to cast aspersions against bitcoin as its a threat to fiat, and the financial services industry that lines the politicians wallets.

My theory is Satoshi is an alien

You are not far off, according to South Park.

Ah it feels good to be on, again!  BLOODYHURRAY!!!  This is not the real story!  Short Version:  My name is Jim Spellman.  I am a average joe. I have other inventions out in the world today disrupting old ways by the biggest in Silicon Valley.  I did research in 2006 and discovered the Blockchain.  I researched federal currency laws for another year and found virtual tokens legal.  I theorized a virtual token during 2007.  I spent a year in Phoenix as a cab driver meeting customers to find a coder to build my Bitcoin. Out of all the programmers i met, no one knew crptography language, until i met Satoshi Nakamoto.  Satoshi was shocked that a taxi driver would even know anything about Blockchain.  We talked more, we theorized,  we planned the building of the Bitcoin platform. We got to work in March 2008! We presented a white paper to the crypto world in November 2008. In Jan. 2009, We presented to the world a working model ready. Some of Satoshi's friends helped in beginning platform processes. In 2011, Satoshi, got bored acting like me a flaming brit, and with some health concerns and my deteriorating eyesight, we decided to ask Gavin Andreissen to run bitcoin and follow our protocols of rules.  Now after the fiasco of journalists in March 2014, Satoshi sent me a copy of all paperwork and 24,636 mined 50 Satoshi PGP keys.  I have since locked everything up in a special blockchain vault on a new invention. Can't spend until Bitcoin is a complete success.  I will know when that is when.  To clear up some notions:  Satoshi built the Bitcoin for Jim Spellman's project on NDA procedures. I have a 2nd part to Bitcoin still to come along with videos and writings, diagrams soon to make it mainstream proof.  More technologies to add to Blockchain and Sidechains. Satoshi Nakamoto is a great mathematician, coder,father and a honorable warrior!  Satoshi is American Japanese.  BITCOIN was built in Arizona and California. We fuck with you with "Brit" humuor. He is very much alive and i talked to him a few months ago.  Bitcoin has not worked completely by plan and Satoshi is a little upset with me today.  Also do not sell our writings, as someone has recently done.  They're our writings!! Unethical!  I will not pull 1 PGP key to prove, until correct time to spend them. Satoshi is everywhere!  He just does not want to deal with the press, gov., or anyone else.  That is my job as it is my project. The keys severely locked up, so we won't be donating any.  You can donate to me, SotoshiWizz if you would like, as we are living on very little to keep the integrity of the platform in check. I am a American with a clean background check. I wouldn't ruin my reputation for looking like a troll, but i did build BITCOIN!!

Satoshi does not exists the entire bitcoin idea whitepaper everything was just an accident.
my cat was hitting random keys every day because she slept on my keyboard.
and it all just sort of happened

I subscribe to the Lama theory actually..
You see there is some people who actually have Animal-Symbols on their Keyboard.. like Giraffes & shit.
So some guys "fake it" online..
They simply just hit random keys then hit the spacebar "the Monkey-Key" when it looks like it should be a word.
That is how Szabo did it i think.. http://www.coindesk.com/linguistic-researchers-name-nick-szabo-author-bitcoin-whitepaper/
