Almost every day a new person comes up with the claim that he/she is the real Satoshi. The real satoshi surely does not want any kind of fame. If he/she/they want fame he could have disclosed his identity earlier. But what could be the possible reason that Satoshi still hides his identity? Does he have a big plan for the future?

Maybe your right OP. satoshi is not want that fame and he want a private life and btc is already helping him what he want so it is okay for him not to reveal herself to everyone and maybe soon that he want to came back and bring more improvement to btc in perfect time. for now we should respect her way and don't immediately believe those who say they are satoshi.

If satoshi did not hide his/her identity he will be targeted easily by the government or other parties who would like to get his idea about cryptocurrency. Also, include security, cryptocurrency and blockchain tech is revolutionary, it is one of the best innovation that was created in terms of financial and data storage. It changed how people transact and secure information, funds while remaining anonymous.

surely he would be more preoccupied by several institutions that wanted to know this technology more deeply, this could lead to an assumption why Satoshi Nakamoto did not want to display his identity. So far I have read many answers and I am sure that only Satoshi knows the real answers

.........., so he would want to remain anonymous.
Wrong, you dont copyright things if you intend to remain anonymous, illogical.

It is not possible to pay with credit card anonymously for Bitcoin.org domain in 2008.
org as in organization is more likely an organization would choose not a individual.
 

"The existing Visa credit card network processes about 15 million Internet purchases per day worldwide. Bitcoin can already scale much larger than that with existing hardware for a fraction of the cost. It never really hits a scale ceiling."  Satoshi Nakamoto, April 2009          Avoiding taxes is totally legal if you consider and respect the law.

It's simple,
When Satoshi Nakamoto reveals his true identity many people will take interest and find her and use his knowledge to control bitcoin secretly.

We do not even know if satoshi nakamoto is still alive or not.

yes i agree with you if satoshi nakamoto introduces himself to the public. then bitcoin will not be a decentralized coin because there will definitely be people who will buy or master bitcoin and may even threaten satoshi to give up bitcoin.
Unknown to Satoshi, until the end of Bitcoin will remain a decentralized coin and move freely.

I think he do not want to be famous and for security reasons. I'm sure now he is happy of what he'd accomplished. We all know that bitcoin and cryptocurrency had a really big impact to world. Maybe he didn't even expect about it. And hiding himself is a very smart decision.

I believe Stoshi has developed Bitcoin purely with the concept of decentralization where noone in particular have control over Bitcoin. By revealing his identity Bitcoin may not be worth it is today as user around the globe may consider it something controlled by a particular company or a group of people.Stoshi may have some secret plan for the future of Bitcoin. There may be other reasons as well like he/she does not want fame or does not want anyone or any govt or private organization to interfere in his life. Real reasons only Satoshi can reveal.

It's not about the fame that he does not want. Fame is just a plus I think, what Satoshi really want I think is a change literally a major change in the financial system and it contradicts the government. What Satoshi is really protecting I think is his security, imagine your work started getting into government official nerves because most of them are against bitcoin plus all the bad people online, you think he'll be safe considering he is holding a ton of bitcoins.

I think he knew that his creation would shake the world. especially in the financial world. other than that. he has proven that bitcoin is decentralized, by hiding his identity and giving up everything about fame. this is bitcoin, real decentralization without control from satoshi. and nobody knows about satoshi.

I have to agree with this, being famous has an expense to his/her security and everyone on this field does not want that. Satoshi could've introduced what he has created to the mainstream media with cameras, press and all to credit all of his work but he didn't. He knows the value of his creation, Government could've done wrong if they know who he is. There is something valuable to him that he does not want to gamble for fame and that is the security and safety.

He owns the biggest percentage of the total supply if I am not mistaken, so maybe he prefer to be anonymous to be safe and live a normal life.
Owning a lot of BTC will not do good for you if that would risk your life, maybe that's in his mind, he ain't stupid because he is a Genius so surely he already anticipated all the possibilities that may endanger his life and just did the right thing.

Now, let me ask, what would it do to the market if satoshi will reveal his real identity?

Will it help this market to pump again?

the concept of bitcoin is to become anonymous  maybe satoshi really want to hide his own identity that why he creates bitcoin
there is also some possibility that he's dead because the coin that he owns is not even moving.

Maybe that is the first reason as he wanted to do this concept of anonymity, but I do understand that we all wanted to know him well as we wanted to thank him for what he did and we know that it's not an easy job for him to do this kind of creation, for sure it took him years before he finally developed it and he sacrifice a lot of things for this to finally happen.

I'm sure Satoshi will feel more secure and comfortable while still hiding his identity to the public. Just as Satoshi created Bitcoin with the principle of anonymity, that's how Satoshi applied it to himself. Whoever Satoshi Nakamoto is, I always pray for his health and safety.

Many reasons,
And whatever it is, only Satoshi Nakamoto knows it. You may be right that he has a future plan or you may be wrong. All of us are just speculations to say and this is no proof that it exists.

Therefore, it is not worthy that we do not ask this question over and over again because this conversation has no purpose, since only Satoshi can answer all the questions.

Given the popularity that Bitcoin has already gained and the popularity that will be in the future, it is simply not safe to remain a public person, personally for Satoshi as well as for the entire Bitcoin ecosystem.

If someone really knew him in real life, its just this someone that knew him he is somebody. This someone who knew him can't even provide a prove if he really is satoshi.

Almost every day a new person comes up with the claim that he/she is the real Satoshi. The real satoshi surely does not want any kind of fame. If he/she/they want fame he could have disclosed his identity earlier. But what could be the possible reason that Satoshi still hides his identity? Does he have a big plan for the future?

He probably had developed BTC long before the 2008 financial crash. And since he knew its going to happen once again over and over like a pattern it did in the past bubble. He spread out blockchain to prevent it from happening again and again.

safety and comfort is not the right reason because some large cryptocurrency creators, for example, Vitalik Buterin showed himself and he remains safe

so I think Satoshi's reason is he really wants to be invisible (anonymous)

Many reasons,
And whatever it is, only Satoshi Nakamoto knows it. You may be right that he has a future plan or you may be wrong. All of us are just speculations to say and this is no proof that it exists.
from the start, the aim of the questions raised by the OP was to speculate and share opinions about what exactly caused Satoshi to hide himself, there is nothing wrong with that

In my own point of view, the reaaon why satoshi hides his identity because there will be cases of kidnapping and hacking his wallet and personal informations, that is why it will be much better to hide his true identity as a creator of bitcoin for his own safety.



BIG WINNER!
