What is your Satoshi theory? Deceased or alive & well

[joinfree]

Does it matter? That dude wants to stay off the public stream. I think we can all do him a favour and stop bringing up topics about him. At least he has left us a legacy we should be proud of and also be more focused on developing and building for the world to use. i don't know how talks about his whereabouts is going to do us any good or the development of blockchain technology in the near future.

Ehh, my uneducated guess he's just a dude that's currently just enjoying life in a beach somewhere, but whatever it doesn't really matter. There's no way for us to validate how true our theories and guesses are anyway. Well, unless Satoshi himself/herself/themselves unmasks himself/herself/themselves in public(with proof, of course); which I hugely doubt will happen.

I hope that it's true and he's alive. I wish him well and I hope he's never found. This is making him look more like a legend than a normal man. I wish him all the best and long life without reporters and crazy fans hiding behind every tree and every bush along his path.

I think he might be dead. I hope I'm wrong but millions die every year of cancer and when he disappeared there was that tsunami in Asia.

I will also theorized that if Satoshi is a single person, he is still living with us and obviously alive. Or probably having a job or something but just chooses to remain anonymous after all this years and venturing on other projects or maybe just living a simply life and just watching on the sideline. But as we have seen in recent years, we call everyone who is a bitcoin supporter, "We are all Satoshi". So much better to move on with our lives and just enjoy his creation and thank the legendary man.

I agree, at this point?? it really doesn't matter if he is alive or deceased. What's important is that his invention had flourished with or without him. Heck, there are speculations that there is a probability that it is a group of person so any theory that he is deceased doesn't hold any weight. And the good thing is that there are people who are willing to continue his legacy so that we all can enjoy bitcoin for the next years to come regardless if he is dead or not.

What is your Satoshi theory?

Just wondering what everyone's thoughts are on Satoshi Nakamoto.

If he's not with us today, I'm sure he'd be appalled with the amount of money being printed by governments/central banks.

One of his legendary quotes are:

"If you don’t believe it or don’t get it, I don’t have the time to try to convince you, sorry."

Is he deceased? Did he pass away from Cancer or some other grave illness?

Does it really matter though? Anyone claiming to be him who can't prove it DIRECTLY ON THE BITCOIN NETWORK just wants to cash in on the position, if he's alive and well and in the future posts on this very same forum, happy, or sad at the direction that we took bitcoin, it'll be an inflection point for most, but in the mean time there's no point in speculating, he didn't want people to know who he was and I respect him for that.

[Sadlife]

Actually no one knows even the authorities the US government for example despite with their advance capabilities and technology for tracking and doxing they didn't catch the famous Creator of Bitcoin. So its impossible for us to really know how is he because he really doesn't communicate anymore through this forum and left many years. My guess is he must be living in an isolated area far from the city.

[NavI_027]

I don't care already if he still alive and just living peacefully somewhere, what I wish is that he just let his huge hodlings stuck on his wallet . For God's sake, please! I don't want (I'm sure everyone as well) the market fall soo hard especially that btc's price got more stable little by little as time passes.

But seriously, it doesn't matter for me if he is really dead or alive because in my heart his legacy remains .

[btc78]

For years now i have been seeing same question over and over again posted by different people.

But for me?i don't really care if what is His status now because i am more than thankful for what He gave us.

But i am Hoping that he is still alive and just staying silent and private.

[Rosilito]

We don't need to make him/her feel uneasy. I know that we're grateful to him/her but digging more to his/her identity would bother him/her. He/She doesn't hide behind doors for no reason, and going across the line seemed to show no respect, at least. Satoshi may be loves watching his/her creation work supposedly, and functions as to how he/she designed it rather than to have countless of recognition, not the type of guy who wants spotlight everywhere, he's no Craig Wright, not even close. Well, enough of it, for me he's/she's alive.

[isaac_clarke22]

Does it matter in the end?
He/she could be the person next door in your house. The person could be just living his normal life that you wouldn't see that he knows something about Bitcoin.
If he is alive, I am sure that he is visiting this forum frequently as a guest.
I don't think that even me as an individual would just abandon what I've become part of and I'll always come back whether it'd be for nostalgic purposes or any other purposes.

I think he is dead. He was assassinated shortly after he invented the legendary Bitcoin. If not why is his almost one million holding still not depleted years after Bitcoin became popular? No one can hodl that long once their token/coin became highly priced. We all know what happened to Litecoin at its peak and how the creator cashed out.

[fiulpro]

Mine would happen to be Him laughing in a corner reading our posts a nd thinking we could do better than discussing anything about him since he knows there is no way we could find him 😂

Jokes apart this man doesn't want to be discovered let's lead with that .

He might be dead or deceased but the theory of yours that he has been assassinated after he created the bitcoin is way too off than usual thoughts of others due to his inactivity. People are pretty doubtful of the bitcoin at the very beginning so that could be the very reason why your theory is having a sort of imaginary stuffs. Secondly, the bitcoin wasn't recognized not until it reached its ATH or even when it is climbing up the ladder.

If not why is his almost one million holding still not depleted years after Bitcoin became popular? No one can hodl that long once their token/coin became highly priced. We all know what happened to Litecoin at its peak and how the creator cashed out.

He might died after shortly when he created it, maybe the sole purpose of bitcoin is a remembrance of his life giving us power to have and use it.

[darewaller]

I don’t like saying he’s dead, maybe because I don’t want him dead lol. The idea that he is dead is not something that I like to hear, I just imagine that he’s someone that doesn’t care about being in public eyes; being famous and all that, he just prefers to stay in the secret. Maybe he’s one of the few that are very different from the rest of us, the type that doesn’t even like flexing the things he has and showing.

So let’s just let him be, if he prefers to stay on the low, then we should allow him and stop trying to dig him up. He made it clear that he has decided to move on and hand everything over to someone else and that’s exactly what he did. If he wanted to come back, I believe he would have done so by now.

[FanatMonet]

I think Satoshi died in 2013 and was a friend of Craig Wright. And Wright, who knows some fragmentary information about the creation of Bitcoin, is trying to manipulate it, but it turns out he’s getting worse and worse. I would be glad to make a mistake if Satoshi is alive and well.

[DabsPoorVersion]

He might be dead that's why there is no one who can find or at least reveal his own identity to the public.

Or maybe he just really want to avoid the public for his own personal reasons. He might be watching over to bitcoin users that continuously growing, but I have this thinking of where in the world he is watching over us, that is something that I want to know but I know it is impossible.

Well nobody can say whether satoshi is alive or dead. Its perhaps biggest mystery of 21st century still unsolved. But one thing we have to admit is that bitcoin is a platform created by human for humanity. It seems very rear that satoshi is just a single guy who created this all, he must have fellows also and they must be around us for sure.

[skarais]

I think he is dead after a few years bitcoin was launched. The reason is that when bitcoin has entered the era as an asset that has a high sale value, there is no movement in bitcoin that is claimed as its own in the wallet. Only my assumption.

If he is a man, then I dont consider him a normal man. But I must say he is a genius and has extraordinary talent. 
Handsome? probably not. He must have 4 layers of glasses when in front of the monitor.

[Zeke_23]

We can't actually tell but there is a possibility that Satoshi is still alive and waiting for the right time to reveal his or their real identity. He or their group is still hiding without any trace, but if he or they doesn't want to actually reveal their identity, we can just let them enjoy their precious life.

We can't really know, I'll stick with what I think his current state right now, he is dead, coz if he really ain't then he should have sold his bitcoin way back 2017. There is a high chance that Hal is Satoshi since he was the first ever to receive a bitcoin after it was created, and I can't contain to myself that if you are the creator of one thing then you should test it on your own, so there's Hal. And I don't think Satoshi would be too clever if he does not know this guy. Perhaps, we don't need that much information for the creator of bitcoin.
