Well I can't really tell if the above assumptions are true or false but one thing I know for sure is that with the current happenings in the world, I think it is better to stay anonymous if you are doing something worthwhile, it seems people don't like good revolution.

This is no big secret. Gavin was working with Satoshi at the time and then Gavin visited a government agency and reported this to Satoshi and he freaked out, because it is illegal for someone to create their own private currency. Satoshi might even have thought that Gavin was an agent for the government, so he just quickly exited the scene, before he got caught. Satoshi's technology was going against big corporations like Banks that are working with governments, so he got spooked. I remember an interview with Gavin Andresen on video, and he jokingly said "maybe my visit to CIA had something to do with satoshi disappearing" and smiled. I never liked this guy, he is the type of guy that hides something. Maybe im being judgemental but given what we know I would bet on him being at an agent of sorts. What a coincidence that he ended up with the keys after convincing satoshi that he was a good guy enough to access to them (by keys I mean, alarm keys or message keys, I forgot how that was called). Then he went on supporting fork after fork, then he went out supporting Craig Wright... what can I do but to think that he is dodgy? Too many ticks on all those boxes.

Satoshi and Bitcoin are a part -- not a "small part", but still only a part -- of a much larger project. Satoshi is only one paw of an unseen cat. A cat with many, many paws.

It is surprising really. It's baffling how an inventor who should be proud of his work would hide his identity. unless he knew Bitcoin was going to be a success and provoke the authority. So called incredible amounts of Bitcoin owned by him worth little then. He deserves it. Saving takes a lot sacrifice and discipline.

There are a lot of reasons, it is cooler than being a president, this man made a smart revolution in the economy. For personal safety, it is better to hide, ve those who support and those who are against.

I think this is closely related to the issue of security. If the hidden identity of the bitcoin developer, then no one can affect him or cause any harm. Therefore, Satoshi (whoever he was) made a very correct decision, hiding his real identity.

Of course, the exact reasons we can only guess. But I think the main reason is that the hidden identity of the bitcoin creator has a positive effect on the decentralization of the currency he invented. Otherwise, bitcoin could be tied to the country of which the creator is a citizen.

you shouldn't compare Satoshi with people such as Buterin because while Satoshi created bitcoin to change the world, they created their altcoins to make money (change their own life by getting rich). that is why they keep advertising their coin.
You are correct bro, there is a huge difference between a person that wanted to change the world with their creations and ideas to a person that wanted to gain fame and money with a copied technology(added some few innovations). I do really give huge respect to the guy who started this all "Satoshi Nakamoto" ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif) Let's think together why Satoshi so zealously guards his anonymity for a large number of years.
are YOU a zealot? or maybe a scammer? because that is my conclusion of your post, anybody who is not revealing his or her identity must have an evil intention and you didn't reveal your identity here either! to answer your question about why Satoshi has never revealed his identity, it is because it wouldn't make a difference. why would you want to know it anyways? why do you care? bitcoin is a decentralized system that doesn't have an "owner" unlike all these centralized shitcoins. knowing who Satoshi is, can lead to that mentality of centralizing it to one person and looking up to him for every decision. There is a reason why the legendary Satoshi Nakamoto never revealed his identity and he is the one who knows about it. I think Satoshi Nakamoto is really a humble and down to earth person that doesn't want to brag about his creation and ideas that changed the world and maybe he doesn't want any kind of fame like a lot of people likes. Not all anonymous people are evil people with hidden agendas and it can be compared it to those people who donate their money for a cause without revealing their identity. But today anonymity in the crypto space is being abused by evildoers especially on ICO's just like what happened in 2017 where a lot of anonymous ICO teams turn out to be purely scam projects.

I think that Satoshi wanted to remain anonymous because he did not want anyone to influence Bitcoin by influencing him. I also think that Satoshi was much calmer to remain anonymous. Satoshi got fame even while remaining anonymous.
Yeah of course there will be a lot of drama if Satoshi is really exposed, what he does will make the bitcoin market affected. I think it's good if he stays anonymous. it will keep the market stable and not to shake

Why hide Satoshi,
Only common sense thing to do really. Buterin is single power of ETH that can do rollback. Single point of failure i dont want that. He could be sued because someone lost money with his "invention". I wouldnt want that as Satoshi. Bitcoin is better because satoshi did that. Good enough already i could write about it for weeks.

If Satoshi is a person then has to be humble person because who would not like to have the fame and recognize by the world for blockchain technology. Inspite of several years now Satoshi still remain anonymous proves that just do your work and let it remain secret and world get the benefits from it.

I think it is also for the sake of their security as satoshi, I also think maybe for them it would not be safe to claim to be satoshi, we all know there are many people who claim to be satoshi even many who claim to be prophets, well all of that back to security for satoshi

I think being anonymous is satoshi best play card. Someone focused on changing the world but not his personal gain. Satoshi could have literally claimed plaudits for the success of blockchain technology as a whole but the change the technology brings is more important.

Big Brother, as you say, created MK Ultra, the Hippy Movement, and dosed the Beatles and the Grateful Dead in university experiments. Read The Electric Kool-Aid Test. They were trying to come up with a chemical attack on Russians. Be that as it may, Big Brother often creates Frankensteins that leave his control. Even if Big Brother created it, it would just be another one of those things they did accidentally that got out of their control. It wouldn't have any bearing on how you would relate to bitcoin. Even though Big Brother created the Hippy Movement of the 60s, that wouldn't mean some 20 year old in the sixties shouldn't go to Woodstock to see Jimmy Hendrix play. Same thing.

I think Satoshi thought it through from the beginning. Perhaps he was not sure that bitcoin could become so popular, but the idea to keep anonymity came to his mind for a reason, I believe. Moreover, we don't even know it is one person or group. And maybe even Satoshi is already dead. In fact, it is very interesting, but apparently we will never know the secret of who is Satoshi Nakamoto.

I am very sure that had Satoshi made himself known by now His soul would have been resting in peace, either by government forces,criminals or out of jealousy, tanks for his sense of anonymity.

In any case, there are consequences, for example, he could not know for sure how people will react to his new invention, someone got rich, and someone, on the contrary, I think he did a very reasonable thing that hid his identity, for someone the decentralized world is destructive.

You forgot to add another possibility for his anonymity and that is him being dead or murdered or whatever it is. What if he turned sick and wanted to spend his last days in solitary or with his family ? What if someone big and dangerous came to know about his creation and murdered him so that he could not proceed with his plan ? May be there might be another reason for him being dead ![Cry](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cry.gif)
