Who is Satoshi?

[fuckcrypto]

you guys know that the whole thing is called cryptocurrency and it comes from cryptography in a sense

so if someone that creates crypto software- what makes you think he uses his real name to sign something

i mean has anyone ever tried to decrypt the name Satoshi Nakamoto?

also another fact is - the 2 persons that did the pizza transaction are virtually nonexistent aswell, or has anyone ever met those 2 guys, just asking

So that leaves you with cryptocurrency invented by a name that might be encrypted aswell and the first transaction has been done by 2 persons that don't even exist

why dont you keep diggin folks?

[Ailmand]

I think digging too much about Satoshi wouldn't make sense anymore. If he wants to expose himself then it would be just easy but it's his choice to keep things in private so we must respect that. We don't know the reason why he has to hide his identity but it might be for his own safety. There are people who are trying to steal Satoshi's identity but everything won't surely work.

I don't see any reason to try and guess who Satoshi is

Many tried before

Some things are better when they remain secret

also another fact is - the 2 persons that did the pizza transaction are virtually nonexistent aswell, or has anyone ever met those 2 guys, just asking

I think that "pizza guy" definitely exists. I don't know him personally but you could probably found out who he really is. By reading this full post https://bitcointalk.org/?topic=137.0 and do a little bit of research.

Anyway, I don't mind who Satoshi is. I can just say thanks to him for the thing he started.

[markstivn98]

Whatever the truth, there may be an important reason for hiding his real name, but after all he is a special man

[Genemind]

A lot of people have attempted to guess who's the real Satoshi is but no one succeed. Some names are taking advantage of this case and they're trying to pretend that they're Satoshi for their own good and for their coin to attract more investors.
Satoshi has contributed a lot in crypto world and he deserves to be honoured instead of ruining his name.

Yes he is true and alive you could watch his interview too.
And besides why are people still into finding the person behind the pseudonym Satoshi?
Isn't 10 years not enough proof that the person behind it have cleared everything to track him?

[sunsilk]

The pizza guy's name is Laszlo Hanyecz if you dont know.

And the other guy is Jeremy Sturdivant

There are few hints actually satoshi left for his confirmation at somewhere. Here on this forum you can find the replies of satoshi what he said at the time of this coin has been introduced. Then his un-named email from some places and his whitepaper.

The person who owns these three things should be SATOSHI but still he is masking his face for everyone and for his invention BTC.

[Slow death]

i mean has anyone ever tried to decrypt the name Satoshi Nakamoto?

So far we have some guys who are a big joke for the crypto world:

Wei Liu

In the filing, Liu claims to have published the bitcoin white paper on Jan. 11, 2008, under the pseudonym of Satoshi Nakamoto

and

Faketoshi

In short cryptocurrency can be termed as a digital asset and it use cryptography to secure it.

so if someone that creates crypto software- what makes you think he uses his real name to sign something

There is no point in decrypting the name Satoshi Nakamoto, it is just a alias like you use in this forum where you want to have some form of pseudonymous power. 

also another fact is - the 2 persons that did the pizza transaction are virtually nonexistent aswell, or has anyone ever met those 2 guys, just asking

The million dollar pizza is ordered by Laszlo Hanyecz and Jeremy Sturdivant is the one who ordered the pizza, it is not a big secret and that tells that you have no idea about anything that is going around here, you think debunked a big conspiracy here with this. 

So that leaves you with cryptocurrency invented by a name that might be encrypted aswell and the first transaction has been done by 2 persons that don't even exist

Who ever created bitcoin sent the first coins to Hal Finney.

[Roukawa]

The real Satoshi Nakamoto will never show his face, that's the main reason why he create bitcoin or the blockchain, it's the privacy of the sender and the receiver that matters.

[Pumared]

particularly, for me to seek satoshi will not change our times in anything. And if it is "Discovered" there will probably be more bad things going on than good ones, since the satoshi image may come to centralize the BTC.

[eagle10]

I won't try digging about it. I am already satisfied where Satoshi Nakamoto is, not hiding but not disclosing his identity anymore. So that every attempt to copy him will make them shame themselves. Everybody can be Satoshi and that's the problem he can encounter if he goes out now. Cryptocurrency is better off without the person but the name only is enough anyway, and he was acknowledged by everybody as the creator of bitcoin.

[Astvile]

No one knows who really Satoshi Nakamoto is.Why do some still care on who nakamoto is?Yes him revealing himself will make an hype but im sure this will be close to impossible.Theres no need to know who is Satoshi Nakamoto isnt it obvious he even hide his identity then why would you still dig in to history and find clues on who he is?Knowing one thing is enough,knowing that Satoshi Nakamoto is the one created the bitcoin network.

[vit05]

Doesn't matter. The code he left is great. And people build a great code after he left. Bitcoin is better today without we know who he is.

All the other coins could fail if their inventor die or become crazy. Image if cw is the real Satoshi. He is just a crazy person that wants some money. We are better without know who he is.

[acroman08]

how can they be non existent when the one who bought the pizza made an interview on the TV. a lot of people trying to find who satoshi is with no avail and a lot more still do and why does it matter so much that we find out who made bitcoin he left the community long time ago and probably with a good reason and he already did his job to the masterpiece he made for the people who is interested in it. I think it's just self fulfillment and self gratification is left why people want to know who satoshi nakamoto is.

[anehh]

Had you heard the news that Craig Wright was Satoshi Nakamoto? so far I have not received further news about satoshi nakamoto. I do not want to continue to bring this curiosity continuously, but whoever he is (satoshi) is a hero who is credited with cryptocurrency, especially BITCOIN. I hope that someday Satoshi will show himself and make the bitcoin fans applaud with great fanfare. Thank you Satoshi nakamoto, you are a very great person.

[mandor]

Satoshi is a Bitcoin maker and of course many people are curious or want to know who he really is. I think Satoshi Nakamoto will always be sought after by many people but they don't know that the effort they are doing is in will vain because Satoshi will never be able to be found. we must respect Satoshi Nakamoto's decision to disappear or do not want his identity is known because it might be that's for his own good.

Even if you keep digging you will never know now who is Satoshi.
Now, everyone can claim that this is Satoshi, but noone can trust him. For example Craig Wright says that he is the inventor but he just do this for marketing purposes and in order to make profits.
