What do you think happened with Satoshi Nakamoto?

[funchiestz]

He better be enjoying his Bitcoins right now. He has a very serious number of BTCs. Even I think a talk with him right now, he can re-animate Bitcoin. Bitcoin price can be revived immediately. I wish a sound would come.

I think no one knows whats happen to Mr. Satoshi Nakamoto.. He is legend for me but why he got away? Did he scared of something? Did someone threated him? As far as i know that he has billions of dollar of worth of bitcoin and he is one of the richest man on the earth. But i wpuşdn't say he is come out again.. He will stay silence i believe..

[Mayoreetre]

It's all pure speculation because I think nobody really knows what happened, or at least they haven't revealed it so far, but I think it was because bitcoin was becoming too centralized, many developers didn't make any move without Satoshi's approval, which was against their own philosophy.

He was kidnapped by the cia and is now held in guantanamo bay detention centre unless he gives up his private keys 

Seriously though, i think he wanted to step away and watch it grow without a central figure

[Conasse]

Wherever he is, I hope he is going fine with great health and family, etc but I don't think it matters and it's better to not know, let's the Bitcoin myth survive For the conspiracy theories fans, I suppose they will say he is still working for the NSA,

[pavka]

It seems to me that he is further engaged in communicating on this and other forums under various names. The name or pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto is too well known and carries a certain information load so that you can continue to use it freely to communicate.

[amorfuse]

There is an opinion that Satoshi is a group of people. At a certain point in the history of bitcoin, this group was no longer needed.

[M4NDELL]

Probably Satoshi just coped with the task of popularizing Bitcoin and now somewhere in warm lands is reaping the fruits of his labors or is engaged in some other project that does not require communication with the public.

[rodalutor]

Some people think he just left so that bitcoin wasn't under his control/guidance and it could left to be truly decentralized. Personally I think he died.. I don't see how any human could leave their wallets untouched if they had that many bitcoin in. Unless he/she was already wealthy 

[gentlemand]

I don't believe he's dead. He came along to fulfill a job. When it looked like the rest of the world was taking the job on, his job was done and he disengaged for good.

I'm unsure about the group theory. Every extra person is another weak link in keeping silent and with that amount of wealth available I don't see how every single person of what might be a large number would be that altruistic.

[soy]

Nothing, imo he's just a brilliant guy who faded away with the expansion of btc. He wanted a decentralized system, without leader. He went to the end of his philosophy, even if it meant giving up several billion $. I would rather have a name to admire than a person in himself with all his potential flaws. Everyone is free to create their own satoshi myth !

[Glutius]

I think he purposely hid his identity to make his currency as independent and decentralized as possible. Hardly with him happened that the bad. The whole task around his personality is carefully thought out.

if he/they was already wealthy?
after death someone inherits something. it is as a rule.

How many businesses and corporations were built on the wave of Bitcoin development? perhaps it’s not just altruism, but the quality and ways of enrichment.

[rtm125]

This is a brilliant decision by Satoshi (or whatever his real name) - to conceal his identity. Thus, he gave independence to his currency and protected himself from excessive attention and even pressure from the government.

[felicita]

Noone knows what now happens to him but it was very important that he was always just a anonymous person.
So no one can bind the bitcoin on any person .

[Dexion]

I don't know the reason why he left Bitcoin, but, today he is always in our midst. although Satoshi left bitcoin, but today, we see that bitcoin has a very good growth every day.

my speculation is that Satoshi wants to protect his privacy to protect his security.

[aoluain]

What happened to him or her or the group known as satoshi?
Maybe nothing of note, maybe he has many many alt accounts on the forum?
Maybe satoshi is Franky1? Maybe I am satoshi?
All these answers remain unanswered because satoshi remains anonymous.

So we caught you, Satoshi!

[bloodyvio]

i thought, he didn't want his identity to be discovered so he became anonymous
and at this time even though he became anonymous, i think he still helped build the development of bitcoin/blockchain as anonymous of course
