Dead or not, still bitcoin is the best and I really appreciate his work in the technology. Blockchain is one of the greatest thing he did in the modern technology and we can innovate more through that chain network.

Satoshi is quiet now because he wants a happy life, that's the reason why he's not showing up.

well anything can be true, and yes BTC is best, not for technology but for the simple fact of being the 1st and widely expected !

i would rate NANO & ETH over BTC, but we can't den the fact that BTC has 60% dominance

[Palider]

No one knows,
He could be alive and dead.

It is also possible that he is keeping people informed that he is still alive because we know that he may have a threat to his life or that he may be used by influential people.

Whatever the reason, I can say that he is smart because he created a coin that has the potential to change the global financial trend.

what if satoshi is currently watching and stalking us, so that when he comes suddenly and sells out all of his bitcoin, I think everything will panic mess, I'm not sure he's dead, I believe he is still there and watching everyone in the This forum includes laughing at your thread

[darkangel11]

Maybe he is, maybe he isn't. I bet we aren't going to find out.

As for the mercy of blockstream, even if Satoshi is alive he won't suddenly come out to impose his vision on us, like Craig is doing. He wants the project to go its own way and be driven by the people, not a frontman.

Blockstream isn't running Bitcoin! If you want to become a bitcoin dev you can do it, just like people who proposed LN and Schnorr.

We really don't know this, but if he's really dead it will be a big heart break for all of us, for sure that we will all be sad for this thing. For sure there is a group of people who really know who's the real Satoshi is, I know that one day we will be able to find out, maybe they are just waiting for the perfect moment for this to happen, let's chill a bit and let us stay tuned.

Maybe Satoshi is dead, maybe Satoshi isn't dead. In the end, this is once again a very pointless conversation that's not going to really get anywhere nor achieve anything either.

No one lives immortally here in this physical world, and I thanked for this name Satoshi regardless if he's dead or alive right now. For sure nobody know where he have been these days, he'd opened the word of crypto for me for there's an opportunity beyond the reality of physical money unto virtual form which becomes worth of our spending.
If ever this man is not a real person or used anonymously by whales who controlled the world of crypto, I guess one of them who created Satoshi was already dead according to my personal opinion.

If that Satoshi birthday appeared in Google is real, I think his too young to be dead by now. He might just simply want to hide himself and lives a normal life. There is no point on discussing as there are not much personal datas provided about him, all are just speculations and claims of being him and them not.

[Lucius]

Maybe Satoshi is really dead, accidents happen on a daily basis and perhaps Satoshi was hit by a car, perhaps he was killed by a gunman or some three-letter agency keeps him trapped somewhere. But even if he is alive and completely free, I do not believe he would appear on the Internet, because it would cause more harm than good.

Bitcoin is strong precisely because it does not have one person behind it, and I think Satoshi himself was aware of that. Bitcoin is on its way, Satoshi launched it and went into the legend. For all those in need of great leaders, I suggest some another coin.

[FlightyPouch]

I don't know, some of the people here knows but most of us do not know who he is or where he is right now. All we know is that he left us a brilliant invention that we should keep on going since this technology will be revolutionized in the upcoming future. Also, there are a lot of ways to get information about Satoshi and my idea was surrounding the first members of this forum, I think that is a bad idea though since even though some of them talked to him, they do not know who he is.

We could never know if it's true but it could be it has been 10 years already,
What if Satoshi was already old when he created Bitcoin and there are so many things that could happen in 10 years,
So many natural disaster or could be an accident or due to illness or being old.
But no matter what we should be thankful for Satoshi, For this great gift that he gave us.

OP got tired of figuring out who satoshi is.

Unless someone is proven to be satoshi, we can never tell his health conditions as well.

And unless he is making a comeback, it is not important if he is dead or not. A lot has improve in bitcoin since satoshi left the scene. Even if he won't come back, I think we are in good hands.

[lionheart78]

As you are saying, Satoshi being dead is a possibility, I read a thread here in the forum about a theory that Satoshi died on an accident, thus the reason for the unmoved Bitcoin on his wallet address (can't find the thread though).  But there is also a possibility that he can be alive and just saving himself from lots of controversy and hard decision since the Bitcoin economy somehow became politics.  No matter what it is, I respect the decision of Satoshi wanting to be kept hidden, and thankful to him for creating this great financial innovation.

[airdnasxela]

We can't tell because Satoshi can be a group. But there's always a possibility. A decade passed already and it's been too long yet we still have no idea about who Satoshi is. Maybe he's still alive and just watching us while having his own freedom. If he's actually dead, then there would be lesser possibility of knowing the real Satoshi...

I'm just curious if his family does actually know that he is Satoshi, the one who created bitcoin...

It's already proven because the chain network of the others are just copycat from bitcoin. Blockchain was originally made for bitcoin, the other assets just improve and develop it to make it more interesting than bitcoin but still people are trying to invest more in bitcoin rather than the other assets.

eth's chain are not also made from the scratch, it is developed from bitcoin's chain network.

[ChrisPop]

Even if that's the case, Bitcoin has been created as open-source code so anybody can contribute to it or fork it, but in order for the main Bitcoin blockchain to change its parameters we need consensus of the miners and that is the beauty of decentralization, but we need to maintain it, otherwise we will be exposed to some central entities who control the majority of the network.

I think maybe yes. Even I thought of this for a while but isn't it just an excuse because we haven't been able to find him until now. But the main thing is that if he is dead all the addresses that he had with tons of btc would go into completely frozen stage as that supply would be lost forever in emptiness. Now this can be both good and bad as decreased supply would mean increase in price but the currency would deflate much more.

10 years in the making and i would guess he's probably dead due to some health problems because i know he's too old to be staying here in this complicated world. Some great people will always going to perish with a great work left for us to use and be amazed at the same time. And Satoshi now is one of the legend in our history.
