Satoshi's IP address found

[xvids]

Do you really think that Satoshi wouldn't secure his own IP address?
Even if Satoshi really did use that IP address I am pretty sure that we wouldn't get anything from it,
He/she would be so smart to use his own IP address just to be traced after all I am sure that Satoshi really wants to stay anonymous right from the start so he/she already planned it all.

I am really curious as to why people are finding Satoshi any way they can. What happens if they do find out the IP address or whoever is the real Satoshi?

Just to get the attention, really, nothing else. And there's no assurance that an IP address is from from someone or not, even if its from satoshi, so what? You will get nothing even if someone traced the location of the IP address since VPN exists already that day.

[imstillthebest]

IP is not proof of identity. It could be a fake at 99.9%. I'm sure that you will know who Satoshi is only when he wants to. Cheer!

why someone got caught and traced by getting thier ip addreses only ? and why vpn , proxies and anonimity tools are invented    ? i suddenly come to think that it is really possible to expose someone by thier ip but if you are smart you can easily hide and spoof your ip and your current location to the other  .  satoshi is a smart guy and he was also concious with his ip or identity like most of us  , so obviously its not its ip  but it was only a made up ip and named with satoshi  .

Not is it just impossible, even if it was possible why would anyone want to?

Fame? Bragging rights?  That they are the ones to crack Satoshi's whereabouts..

The man obviously wants/wanted to be left alone, so people want to ignore his wishes and make him some sort of celebrity? I don't get this, I understand curiosity but this would be actively going against the wishes of someone most people admire and respect.

Just deal with it, people who have nothing important to do always love to put their nose where it shouldn't be.  Others ride just to get monetized especially, writers and bloggers.

The ip address of satoshi, the mastermind of all, have found? meh.

The guy is just trolling, it's just a waste of time for him and us.

Trolls are getting paid too.
Expect more like this on the internet, not all of the information you see is true. That's why we need always to validate all of the info before spreading.

There are many reasons why the identity of satoshi is important for many people, to begin with I am sure that most 3 letter security agencies will like to have a word with him, also many reporters would like to know his identity in order to make a name for themselves, but probably the most important reasons has to do with history, there are many inventions of which we do not know the name of the person behind it, however in most of those cases this is because those inventions were created hundreds  or even thousands of years ago, if bitcoin becomes as important as we believe it will then the identity of satoshi will become more important as time passes and most people would like to know the identity of the person behind it.

Move on. We can't really say it's his own IP add. Or even if he really  used that IP, then what now? Let Satoshi lead  his own life now, we can not get any gains from finding his IP address. And come to think of it, Satoshi wants to be anonymous. Don't you think he did not guaranteed to remain his identity a secret one? Digging his ip is useless.

[FanatMonet]

The administrators of this forum may possibly know Satoshi's IP address. Well, as well as people who were at the very beginning of the development of bitcoin.
And to give out this information, even if they have it, they have absolutely no reason.

68.57.205.126=tor
=satoshi not found
=moving on

Interesting to see that Satoshi obviously went to great lengths to protect his identity, and yet people are still trying to discover who he is.

There must be a rationale behind his wish to be anonymous, but surely he couldn't have known for sure how big Bitcoin would become?

Maybe he just wanted to create a legacy and a mystery, to show that an anonymous entity could shake up the system, and do what all the wars, rallies, and revolutions could not—dethrone the elite!

so, I see these last few very often for beginners to ask about satoshi and say something that doesn't make sense.

What's in it for all of them....!

And now the beginner comes again with IP Satoshi, what is this for, is this a joke.

Too strange for me every beginner who comes, satoshi is found, satoshi has been caught, satoshi etc, silly and boring.

Hi, beginners, why don't you think about investing in Bitcoin and buy as much as possible for your future.
Why are you looking for the uncertainty, satoshi has given you Bitcoin for your economic prosperity, use it well for your future all.

Let satoshi choose his own way that is best for himself and the people, stop bringing ip, gmail, photos, addresses etc. It does not help you to get something.

[Swordsoffreedom]

Based only on this is not a Tor exit node we can't be stressed it's a Satoshi's real IP. It doesn't prove that it's not a VPN.
It is also a matter of watching how long he has been using this IP. He has used this IP for a very short time, one or two times.
so, it is not his real permanent IP.

I am really curious as to why people are finding Satoshi any way they can. What happens if they do find out the IP address or whoever is the real Satoshi?
I prefer for Satoshi to be anonymous forever. It will somehow add spice in the crypto world if they keep looking for him and don't find him 

I don't think this is Satoshi's IP address. It could be anyone.

They think they will find gold afterwards. 

There is not much sense into looking for his IP.
Even if you find it then what is next?
He may be reading this now and making fun of whoever made the posts.  Hello there, satoshi.

Do you think Satoshi was someone who couldn't think of that? Guys, don't search for him anymore. Unless he shows up, you won't find him!

Exactly, this is getting really ridiculous. I can't imagine that someone might beleive Satoshi would let to be revealed through IP address. And if that was the case, what is the proof for that.
I really can't understand why are people so much interested to find Satoshi and how would that fact influence their lives. Just let him be and if he doesn't want to be revealed no one will manage to do that.

[costeljj]

How you find that IP, and how you know for sure is his IP, and what country is that IP?

[finaleshot2016]

It seems real, but still highly debateable. And given that the address is on Tor makes it difficult to trace, since the original request was jumped to multiple relays before reaching the receiver of the email. All the data sent and received in the network is protected with multiple layers of encryption, and cracking through all of them just to know which IP it originated seems impossible.

cracking all of it NOW will only reveal the relay peers of .. guess.. NOW
they dont hold logs of 11 years ago.. so it isnt 'seems impossible' .. but 'definetly impossible'

Not is it just impossible, even if it was possible why would anyone want to? The man obviously wants/wanted to be left alone, so people want to ignore his wishes and make him some sort of celebrity? I don't get this, I understand curiosity but this would be actively going against the wishes of someone most people admire and respect.

I wonder what is the real benefit of knowing this kind of information. As of now, this is nonsense and there's no gain here. Besides, it's easy for satoshi to change his IP address once it is bring exposed to the public, that's not a problem to him since he has a lot of money now. I hope that there's no newbie believe this guy.

[michellee]

So let say you finally found Satoshi by tracking his IP address, and you finally found where he/she/they lived. What do you want to do after you meet Satoshi? Let him/her/them do what they want to do, don't bother to find him/her/them because you will be difficult to do that. I am sure they are very smart to hide from the people because they have skills to undercover.

Satoshi was a visionary, even if he was not sure bitcoin will become a success he knew the possibility was there and as such he did not wanted to become a public figure if that was the case, it is obvious that he really thought about everything in a very detailed way, it does not seem as if he made any mistake not only when it came to trying to hide his identity but also in the way he suddenly left the scene and how he delegated the future of this project to some other people.

[Rengga Jati]

Is that true? If it is true, what will be done with that? Will anybody be curiosua and search for this?
Can't we just get on with the who, where, and how of Satoshi?
Yes, maybe a lot of people are very curious. But will this end well? In this case, we know that Satoshi's whereabouts have always been kept secret for some reason.
But it can't be helped, sometimes it is interesting for some people to continue exploring about him or them.

[Warkop]

In my opinion it's really not important to do research on satoshi IP addresses, because doing stupid things like this is just a waste of time finding it and I'm sure whatever you do won't be able to find the truth. So let it be a mystery from satoshi to everyone about Bitcoin, because in my opinion if satoshi really existed from then until now it wouldn't be a problem and wouldn't make the price of Bitcoin go down.
