Who is Satoshi Nakamoto? Is he worth over $10 Billion USD today?

[Yakamoto]

Damn, now that's a name I haven't seen in a long time. Did you ever stop posting in politics Tom?

Anyone trying hard to find the real Satoshi or who is pushing in favor of something like finding him are wasting their time for the most part, if no-one has found him after the solid 6 years since 2011, or 4 years since the leap to $1.2k, chances are it'll be harder and harder to find him as time drags on. As for who or what he may be, he could be an individual or a group. Right now we have no definitive idea. Someone going and analyzing the writing styles of all know works of Satoshi could give us an idea as to whether or not one person had to write everything, or if it varied. Even that doesn't prove much.

What if Satoshi was already a billionaire who didn't care how much he had 

Mi just finished glancing through the list of first fifty billionaires and there was none called Satoshi Nakamoto, unless he's disguised his name. I don't think he doesn't care and he's not money conscious observing his conduct of not coming to seek fame attention so i think he knows what he's doing and we all need to respect that.

Satoshi nakamoto is not even yet identified if he is a person or a group of person  No one really know who that is so determining if he is a billionaire now and who he is is not possible. People always assume that this satoshi maybe a guy who wants to remain anonymous. Maybe he doesn't want to get involve with all these dramas.

People could really make assumptions that hes already a billionaire because hes the creator of bitcoin and assuming he stores or mine lots of bitcoin when it was just starting then people could really make those rumors which theres a possibility that it would be true..

It's absolutely impossible that he's worth that much because that would be well over half of Bitcoin's market cap.

[mastermold]

Sergio Demian Lerner did an analysis back in 2013 and estimated Satoshi has 1M Bitcoins. Means he has more than $1B if we go by his research. Else nobody has record of it.

Who is Satoshi Nakamoto?
Where are his Bitcoins?
What is  his Bitcoin address?
Is he worth over $10 Billion USD today?

This is like the billion dollar question. And it has been discussed over and over.

But to me, the question should be rephrased like this:

Suppose someone comes along claiming to be Satoshi Nakamoto. What kind of proof could he/she/they give to backup that claim? And would that proof be 100%? Likely not.

If it would be certain that he would be the owner of one of the earliest bitcoin addresses, all that needs to be done to proof that is make some valid transaction from that adress.
The recipient of that transfer could then confirm that the claimed owner is the owner.

But we don't know with certainty what bitcoin adress belongs to this Sakoshi Nakamoto figure, it would only proof that the person owns one of the first bitcoin adresses.

How can he be worth 10 billion USD today if he supposedly "only" holds 1 million coins? That would put him closer 1 billion by my calculations.

[andrew24p]

Why the fuck would he be worth 10Billion ? The whole market cap is only 14B

[Sadlife]

Some say that satoshi nakamoto is not actually an individual but a group of people that created bitcoin.
I guess satoshi nakomoto wherever him/they maybe are already billionaires with millions of bitcoins in their sleeves.

[Amph]

he can't be worth that much even accounting the 1M coins he mined, which was then discovered to be only 200k, but need further notice on this i can't believe anymore the crap anyone is shooting here too much nosense by paid shill...

he can only reach 1B+ with 1 million coins, maybe they are giving a value to what satoshi was and what he have done with bitcoin and all, which is a different story and can e seen as an award

[majeed]

Satoshi is worthless. He is the one who start a revolution about new currency on this planet which is called cryptocurrency. He is the father of Bitcoin and grandfather of all other altcoins. I respect what he did even though I do not know who he is

[Sled]

Satoshi nakamoto is one of the greatest person that i know and he is the creator of the bitcoin but i believe that satoshi nakamoto is just a screen name and maybe he is not a japanese and just want to protect his identity so he just use that screen name.

Of course, he worth at least $10 Billion USD today because he got millions of bitcoin and if he want some money he just need to sell some of his stocks and gather the profit.

Fictional character or not, facts remain facts.

I invite you to check this article : https://bitslog.wordpress.com/2013/04/17/the-well-deserved-fortune-of-satoshi-nakamoto/

(TL;DR : There is one entity that mined from block 1 and for quite some time that ows ~1M unspent BTC since the beginning of bitcoin. The ultimate bitcoin holder/believer  )
You can check all this out in the blockchain.

Who mined that block ? https://blockchain.info/block/00000000839a8e6886ab5951d76f411475428afc90947ee320161bbf18eb6048
See, the 50 BTC are unspent.

This is "Satoshi Nakamoto".
Now, either he/they hold the private keys and haven't spend the BTC yet, or the coins are burnt because privkey were lost/deleted on purpose.
So far, we can't know that..

Many people seems to be terrified that Satoshi Nakamoto identity is not known, which is kind of understandable- having so many bitcoins causes that some part of BTC community is simply afraid of him.
Actually, they are not afraid of him: they are afraid of how many BTC Nakamoto owns.
However i don't expect him to cash them yet, i would sit calm and wait for better price.
And make small sell orders, not many big ones.

There is a lot of information about Nakamoto Satoshi, however, we can not be sure that it is accurate, none of us knows about it, he can be a person or an organization working together and Developed, what we can be sure is that he is the one who created the bitcoin, he is a very talented person. I admire him. He knows very well what he has created, so I believe he is a billionaire, with his talent, money is too easy to get. I look forward to seeing him once.

I remember once Gavin saying that the initial code on was looking like a "one man" job ... not a team 
anyways I like his 'plausible deniable' crypto karate style

Oh no, not going to suggest for him to come back


My suggestion to know who is satoshi nakamoto

Hire many detectives, create a name organization (find satoshi nakamoto); Join all hakers, successful programmers, bitcoin experts, join bitcoin core, all forum members knock from door to door of their neighbors in search of satoshi nakamoto.

Dig all the earth, find this guy and your house.

Nobody have any information regarding him so he is still anonymous.

Bitcoins in his known addresses are still untouched.

There is no exact list of all addresses that he own.

May be more than that but it looks like he is not willing to be billionaire.

Correct. Let's just leave him and if he is after the money then absolutely he should have surface by now and claimed it. However, he wants to remain anonymous and worked hard for it so I doubt he shows up. He has his reasons, maybe because he was afraid of his life. And as time goes by, its proven that he should hide himself. Because bitcoin has change how the economics of on-line payment is and maybe the government will hunt him down for introducing a pseudo-anonymous currency, which is the bitcoin.

[addicto]

Satoshi would remain mysterious character in the history of bitcoin always people trying to find the fact but couldn't get succeed to know what is behind the scene. If Satoshi is a person than he has more than that what is hold of these addresses.
