What is the benefit of being Satoshi Nakamoto?

[Anegg]

Till now, I have read many news from different people claiming they are Satoshi Nakamato.
We all know all of them are lying. But, What is the benefit of being Satoshi Nakamato? If there was any benefit the real Satoshi Nakamato would have appeared by now.
I think even if Satoshi Nakamoto is found, he/she will have trouble with governments and there will be no benefit.

The main benefit would be the pride and fame that goes along with creating a currency that one day may revolutionize the the way transactions are made across the globe. Even now he/she would be viewed upon as one of the greatest minds in history and go down in the history books with the greats such as Einstein, for creating a currency that is valued so highly in today's society. However, obviously with this benefit, there are many disadvantages, with the main one being the safety of the individual/group due to the fact that they are known to be holding a huge amount of bitcoin, as well as facing persecution from governments around the world who dislike this type of digital currency.

There's only one benefit I can think off of why they are claiming that they are Satoshi Nakamoto. Maybe because of the locked wallet of Satoshi Nakamoto which has almost 1million bitcoin in it. Other than that I can't see why they are pushing to claim that they are Nakamoto, all that will bring to them is doom and tons of risk im sure there are many people who are hunting Nakamoto because of what he created.

Maybe Mr Craig can give a better answer to this topic, i mean he has fought so hard to be recognize as the real satoshi nakamoto without success, i assume he knows the benefit of being regarded as Satoshi more better ,

in any case, there will be both good and not so good benefit of been satoshi, the good benefit will be the person will go down in history and be known as the man/woman who created a revolutionary technology,
the not so good benefit will be your life will not be the same again, you will loss your privacy = no more anonymous, good and bad people will hunts you down, people will need answers to their zillion questions and the list goes on....
