Why Satoshi’s disappearance was the most important thing to happen to Bitcoin

[virtuexru_shibe]

Pretty interesting article although I do not agree that Satoshi is Japanese or if at all it is one person. To me it's more likely someone British. Anyway, fellow newbs what are your thoughts?

I read an article suggesting Satoshi is Nick Szabo. Because the article was dumb I dismissed it, then found a better article claiming the same thing. From memory Satoshi never said he was Japanese but rather LIVED in Japan, so yes, he could possibly any nationality, including British.

I don't know if the Satoshi that founded this forum is the same Satoshi, or why they left. And yeah, of course the name a pseudonym, I suspect my dog knows that. And it's quite possible that it is more than one person, but you know all this already though right?

He probably lost his wallet in a hard drive crash and quit.

Interesting article. 
Thanks.

I actually would have to agree. Once the developer left, it seems that the community may have become more driven to take up the development on their own.

What makes you think he's British?

I've read all his posts/quotes.. it seems to be the general consensus that one of/the Satoshi had a knack for tea & crumpets.

Hah. Was just kidding, in all honesty I've read all the articles trying to pin down who Satoshi was but there's just not enough evidence one way or the either. It does make for a really interesting topic though.
