What if?

I wonder what would have happened to bitcoin if satoshi nakamoto was an American and come to think of it will all what we've been denied of in cryptocurrency world come to past already? I'm talking about ETF ,bakkt ,regulations ? If America was bitcoin birth home what would have happened by now? Just a thought

[jossiel]

Nothing.

Bitcoin market is independent and it doesn't depending if satoshi really comes from Japan, America or any country. It depends on supply and demand so it won't really give that effect that you are thinking right now.

Are you thinking that each citizen of America will start investing to bitcoin if they find out that Satoshi Nakamoto's citizenship is US'? no. It won't do anything different.

[Tamrlan]

Additional.

Although satoshi nakamoto found have citizenship America, if we talk about regulation, I think nothing will change. This of supposing.
Regulations that have been issued, to revoke them need a long discussion and mutual agreement. While the government has agreed to regulation it for the sake of keep sovereignty of the country's currency. So, I think, what for waste of time to long discussions just for the same thing.

I talk about supposing the bitcoin is use as a legitimate currency as a currency of exchange.

Look, the US is the dominating country in the world, many countries respect and follow what the US does, so if satoshi appeared and say that it is American, some countries would look at it as something good, but countries like Russia, China and others would see this is something created to destroy their countries. Maybe that's why satoshi is anonymous and nobody knows your nationality

[Kakmakr]

The US and their friends wil support it 100% and their enemies will ban it, because they will fear some sinister plot from the US to rule the world. <He who controls the wealth, control the people>    

The SEC would have probably approved the first Bitcoin ETF already and the US government would have tried to control Satoshi and all the additions to the code. <They want full control over every aspect of protocol>

I am glad Satoshi left, because we would have had a government controlled experiment.  

[FedorIzmailov]

It seems to me that Bitcoin would officially be equal to the dollar, and thus it would have affected the fact that the dollar would become even more powerful as a currency

Bitcoin is not going to shut down until the last node is running so it does not matter who created bitcoin. It could be an american or a japaneses or an aliens all are same.

It's the miners who is keeping the bitcoin alive.

Even bitcoin will birth in America it will still the same where it is decentralized and anonymity. But, until now we do not know who is Satoshi Nakamoto and we also do not know where he live. If ever bitcoin will birth in America there is nothing to do with ETF, bakkt and regulations.

[messito]

I think that Bitcoin would simply be destroyed if the Americans were at the helm because it is extremely unprofitable for them

[cabron]

It it comes from America, all of the countries using crypto might have been invaded already.  Not really. But if the creator of blockchain and bitcoin had been known, it would have been patented and it may not be the king of crypto but other else. Exchanges might be government sponsored and we may be using other distributed ledger technology for our altcoins.

Bitcoin is global, every country acts differently to it. Regardless of where
bitcoin was created we would still be where we are now.

And also we would be in this position even if Satoshi was known. Bitcoin
is much bigger than 1 single person.

[Reid]

It will not surface in the world.
They love secrets, so they will use it on their own benefit.

It will never be introduced to other countries nor advertised. They will first learn on how to benefit on it rather than others digging into what they have discovered. Yeah, that is America.
Check out "i love you virus" and what happened to the people behind it. You will learn what America does when they see a genius.

I don't think if there's some changes happent about bitcoin if satoshi nakamoto was an american, maybe american people will be proud about that, but the decisions of ETF will be remind.

[elloco4ever]

Its Just a hype regarding satoshi nakamoto like who is he where he's from? This development doesn't require anyone it requires only supply and demand no one has control for this even the founder well that's the beauty of this technology.

of course, but in the legality it might not be there and in my opinion when talking about prices it will have an impact on prices, where this news will be a fundamental increase for bitcoin

The United States already has its own policy with bitcoin.
Try explain to me, where does it come from bitcoin will destroyed if satoshi nakamoto found to have citizenship United States?
I need a more detail explain to understand your logic.

You should know, satoshi nakamoto not a leader bitcoin. Please distinguished the leader with the inventor.
The leader is someone who lead his army / control his army.
Bitcoin is independent, not controlled by any party, even satoshi nakamoto can't control it.

A big "NO"!

First, America wont really create such thing like "Bitcoin". They love on anything to be controlled and creating a thing would be fully contrary on what they do like and with that alone even just presuming
on this matter is already making impossible situations.

Bitcoin can't have a nation. Is like trying to give a nation to internet. These kinds of global technologies get adopted by countries and each country decides what rules apply to it. As you can see internet have different rules and laws in each country (North Korea only allow a local network internet), and the same applies with bitcoin, some countries will allow it, others will block it, and others will try to take advantage from it.

America may be the birthplace of Bitcoin, but it will not be able to control it. Currently, the ETF votes depend on SEC, but I realize that this is not really desperate. We can see this is an opportunity for all of us because Bitcoin really has a huge impact.

You are hinting that the nationality of Satoshi has an influence in their adoption
I see that it is otherwise
It's more complicated, we're talking about a real revolution in the financial system
And the economy as a whole
My dear,the table will turn over all the old systems.
