I think it will be a government because
if not, they would have stopped Bitcoin. Do you think Satoshi will introduce us to some new concept?
There is no need. It's not about the concept but the ownership. Bitcoin is in good hands.

There is no need. It's not about the concept but the ownership. Bitcoin is in good hands. i really believe satoshi will never be back anymore. satoshi may have introduced or even pitched bitcoin and bockchain particularly to someone maybe to a person who are on top of the corporate banking person, this person stop this development because he already sees a threat to the world of banking and then forbid satoshi to go online. somehow satoshi finds a way to upload it and give it a way to the world. satoshi only said he is moving onto other things now but he is probably murdered already. ![Lips sealed](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/lipsrsealed.gif)

What do you think these other things could be?
I generally assume he was moving on to battle an illness, and that he lost the battle and died. Yup, that is pretty much the most common theory. After all, who among us can have billions in a wallet and not move a single coin for years and years? If he did not die along the way, the he certainly has the willpower of a god.

Satoshi started something revolutionary. Its too bad there isn't a face to his name and his work can be claimed by anybody. By moving to other things, I believe, he has moved on from bitcoin, maybe focused on life and family or maybe his health. He won't show up for a long time (or never) and that's for sure.

I prefer to assume that he is alive and well, obviously this presents the question of how can someone have so much money and not touch it? But there are several explanations, satoshi knows that if he moves his coins then the whole world will know about this in a matter of minutes and if he begins to cash out this will create incredible FUD as everyone will wonder why the founder of bitcoin is cashing out, and an even more important reason is that the authorities will probably want to find his real identity if tries to get to his coins and you can be sure every single intelligence agency will try to find him.

Satoshi knew that all. He tested all the blockchain with many computers before releasing the applications. He knew what can happen. He has mined other coins than https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=175996.0. He has enough coins, these addresses we don't know.

We like putting negativity in something, the fact that satoshi said he was moving on does not specifically mean that he was passing on, he never said he was passing on, the English is clear, maybe after releasing this, it could even be a prototype of the main thing which he has seen that it is getting response, he could be moving on to other bigger projects which may also shock us in the future. I so much believe that this satoshi hiding is face is purely a deliberate action, and he must surely come out one day the moment he sees what exactly he wants bitcoin to achieve. If he is not a super human being that was sent from the future, I know surely within me that satoshi is even watching many things we are doing, and maybe still even investing too to test things around.

My opinion: After 10 years of experience, he is now testing a new concept that has improved all old issues like speed, scalability https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bitcoin_scalability_problem. He will come back with Bitcoin 2.0 but not as Satoshi Nakamoto.

It would be a shocker if Satoshi started working on the next Bitcoin, because he saw that his invention was open for exploitation. He realized that the flaw in his invention was the fact that it can be duplicated by anyone, if he could not reveal his identity and then protect his intellectual property rights. So Bitcoin ( BTC) was just the test run for the next Bitcoin, where he would reveal his true identity. I think Satoshi Nakamoto is more than one person and this group are working on the "legal" version of Bitcoin.

exactly My opinion: Satoshi Nakamoto is one person and will come back with the improved Bitcoin and with another pseudonym. He will not try to advertise or sell the new concept because he knows that the Bitcoin and crypto community will use it as it will be good.

The next developed decentralized coin would use a different technology without these issues. Satoshi Nakamoto is one person and will come back with the improved Bitcoin and with another pseudonym. He will not try to advertise or sell the new concept because he knows that the Bitcoin and crypto community will use it as it will be good.
Bitcoin worked without advertising, selling. The new concept would make it the same way and would not work 10 years ago, as for the new concept a crypto community is needed, who will build a great stable network, what would be important for the new concept. Satoshi will definitely return for Bitcoin, even though he has now disappeared for quite a long time. And the return of Sathosi, will increase the value of Bitcoin at a high enough price.
The price today is not important, if the concept is good. The concept will make the future's price.

I also doubt the creation of Bitcoin 2.0. To do this, there is a huge amount of altcoins to develop the functionality of crypto, in turn, Bitcoin is the standard of P2P with maximum decentralization and security.

I consider this idea though which might be possible but its hard to believe that he would go for another creation yet Bitcoin is already an exceptional innovative thing that had been created. Maybe he thought that the Bitcoin developers will find a scalability solution and he also tried with the current blockchain - not reached - and developed the next decentralized coin. I also doubt the creation of Bitcoin 2.0. To do this, there is a huge amount of altcoins to develop the functionality of crypto, in turn, Bitcoin is the standard of P2P with maximum decentralization and security.
Not good enough. We can see the limitations of blockchain, it is a temporary solution. A new concept would be important.

Nope, it will not simply be a knockoff Alt coin like the rest of them, Satoshi is way too smart for that. It will be something groundbreaking and new and he/she or they will not use the Bitcoin code to develop this technology. Satoshi learnt a lesson from the first Bitcoin and he/she or they will not repeat the same mistakes. The code used will also not be the same style as was used by Satoshi in the original Bitcoin protocol. People will not be able to link the two together, when it will be released. ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

My guess is that him moving on to other things is probably another project or personal life. Maybe he knew how popular Bitcoin will become and don't want to be involved aftermath. Those words had me thinking that perhaps Satoshi might be one of those who recently came forward to claim the identity. Or perhaps not. Truth is, there will be a lot of 'maybes' till the issue of his identity is revealed.

Marvelous thing is that this doesn't matter aside from emotional reasons. BTC doesn't need even it's creator to work.

That could be the right time to distribute and run his new development.

In the book " Digital Gold: Bitcoin and the Inside Story of the Misfits and Millionaires Trying to Reinvent Money", its author ( Nathaniel Popper) quotes a couple of emails sent by Satoshi to other members of the early Bitcoin community. This was apparently right before his disappearance from the forum. Here is the excerpt: The author of the Bitcoin software hadn’t posted to the forums since December, but he had continued to e-mail with a select number of developers, including Gavin, Martti, and Mike Hearn, a Google programmer in Switzerland, who got drawn into the project after the WikiLeaks blockade. In late April Hearn politely asked how involved Satoshi intended to be moving forward.
“Are you planning on rejoining the community at some point (e.g. for code reviews), or is your plan to permanently step back from the limelight?” he asked.
“I’ve moved on to other things,” Satoshi wrote back. “It’s in good hands with Gavin and everyone.” [...] Satoshi’s final e-mails went to Martti, whom Satoshi asked to take full ownership of the Bitcoin.org website.
“I’ve moved on to other things and probably won’t be around in the future,” Satoshi wrote to Martti, in early May, before transferring the site to Martti and disappearing into the ether. [emphasis mine] Source: https://www.amazon.com/Digital-Gold-Bitcoin-Millionaires-Reinvent/dp/006236250X I couldn't help noticing that Satoshi announced that "he had moved on to other things" on two different occasions. What do you think these other things could be? From the context, it sounds these things are unrelated to Bitcoin. Maybe he was working on other projects where programming skills were needed. This can also be interpreted as Satoshi being more or less satisfied with the development of Bitcoin and confident in its intended future. I know that this is very speculative and impossible to know with certainty, but I would like to hear your opinion. There could be many possible reason/s for his decision to step back and all we can do is assume. He might have feared of the unstable or unsure state/future of Bitcoin. He could also be trying to conceal his identity so that once BTC community expand and grew, he could avoid people who are trying to use it for bad acts or he might have feared for his own life. He might be ill, however this is at a low percentage assurance. Or that, he is trying to take care of something huge that he need an ample amount of time.
