What is your Satoshi theory? Deceased or alive & well

[finaleshot2016]

For me, this whole Satoshi story looks very political. After all, while we believe that Satoshi is not one person but a group of people, the impression is created about the features of Bitcoin as an international means of interaction between people. But as soon as we find out who exactly is behind its creation, and if some structures are involved in this, then bitcoin may lose some of the people's love due to media attacks on it.

Same thinking, those who are following the tile of satoshi nakamoto have their own personal interests on bitcoin, and they knew they'd earn a lot from it. At some point, it's going to lend political influence because SN did something that was being used by a lot of people. On the other hand, bitcoin can become vulnerable to media threats and other leaders because the privacy of the mastermind no longer exists. If the disclosures have arisen, it would be a non-stop investigation and bitcoin's collapse, so the government would prosper because they are opposed to it becoming decentralized.

Hello everybody. Cool question. A lot of opinions on this topic on the Internet roams. Personally, I think that nevertheless this is a real person and an absolutely living person. The genius who invented the great thing, many of us still do not fully understand what this person created. I believe that if some organization would invent Bitcoin, it would have long been public knowledge. Because, what two people know, everyone knows. It is easier for a loner to hide from the eyes of all governments and regulatory bodies. Therefore, I am inclined to the fact that Satoshi Nakamoto lives on some secluded island and enjoys life.

what is clear is that this innovation stems from anxiety on an outdated system. Intelligent people will certainly think about what can change this, until the idea that now comes in the form of bitcoin, which we can enjoy all the good opportunities. Well, no one really knows whether Satoshi is an individual or a group, after all, it will not harm us even if we don't know it. Ignore insignificant thoughts, let's focus on the opportunities that already exist as best we can.

It's hard for me to think about that. Every side can be possible, but I can't say that it's 50:50. I can't even give proofs to support my theory do basically this is just my wild guess. But for me, Satoshi is still alive (unless he got infected by the virus). Probably having the best of his life. Enjoying his freedom and anonymity. Or perhaps, he's making another innovation? I don't know. We don't know.

I don't really want to exert too much effort on thinking about him because no matter how much I would think, I'll still end up knowing nothing. What matters is that he left something that will definitely remember his existence even if it's just a pseudonym?

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?

I don't care. Left us a nice coin and forum, which we use because we find them useful, and that is that.

Money printing is nothing new, and worse is fractional reserve modern banks do, and yet most people are absolutely ignorant of it.

More like appalled, its bored. The same thing, always. I agree with not having time to convince part, its not a religion; your loss for not using it.

Satoshi is really a genius , maybe it is just a code name "Satoshi" and he made bitcoin for those who want to become successful in life just like him. I'm sure that he is still alive and he chose to be anonymous so that the authority will not find him and he want a peaceful and lowkey life. There are people who prefer to be silent and still making a big impact when his influence and invention is really making people grow and become wise in life. Bitcoin really teach us a lot of lessons that is also applicable in our life, just like the budget management, proper timing, patience and etc., bitcoin can really change our perspective in life in a good thing and it is up to you if you will really use bitcoin in a good ways just like Satoshi is expecting you to do.

Actually, I believe that human nature is such that no one will hide without much sense.  If Satoshi Nakamoto would face criminal liability with a long term of imprisonment or his life would be in danger, then his secrecy and anonymity would be true.  But if there is no danger to this person, then most likely this person has long passed away or Satoshi Nakamoto never existed at all, and under this name a group of bitcoin developers may have been hiding.  And as always, my words are just one of hundreds of thousands of assumptions.

There are a lot of people saying that Satoshi Nakamoto is already died and leave his bitcoin for over the place in the internet and also there are a lot or rumors too that Satoshi Nakamoto is alive and he are just hidden into the world of internet and waiting to the right time to show again but on my side I think he are still alive and manage and control the market price for over the time because a creator is always a creator even you already got a final project and development on your creation still you need to control and manage this too because it takes a lot of updates and maintenance on the process to make sure it is stable and does not have many errors and bugs.

For me, this whole Satoshi story looks very political. After all, while we believe that Satoshi is not one person but a group of people, the impression is created about the features of Bitcoin as an international means of interaction between people. But as soon as we find out who exactly is behind its creation, and if some structures are involved in this, then bitcoin may lose some of the people's love due to media attacks on it.

There is a chance Satoshi Nakamoto is a group too because a developer and a genius and computer programming cannot handle this kind of huge number of programming systems and it is hard to handle this kind of many users and transactions happens with the use of their creation.

According to the theory that I believe satoshi nakamoto is not one person, but a group consisting of several people. Because projects as large as
bitcoin cannot possibly be handled by one person alone. Most likely satoshi nakamoto is still alive, then the reason satoshi nakamoto chose to hide
due to security reasons. Because the government and banks do not like the presence of bitcoin, so if Satoshi Nakamoto appears to feel his safety
threatened. Actually the identity of satoshi nakamoto is not important to me, the most important thing is that his creation of bitcoin can benefit
people who are have it.

Well we cannot really say that since we don't have any of things or data to base on but I also think of that, Satoshi Nakamoto is a group rather than just a person because the creation of bitcoin needs to be sophisticated. Perhaps, he did it all alone and also took all his life time to get the bitcoin done and dies after he releases it. Maybe we are just seeing bitcoin cannot be created by just one person because it is huge now that we are just underestimating that man can do.

We can also conclude that Satoshi is watching us from now and then but he's not showing up because he is afraid and considering his family's safety too.

Personally, the theory I have about Satoshi and Bitcoin is that Satoshi is not one person. I believe that Satoshi is the name of the team that developed Bitcoin and the blockchain technology. Considering the nature of the entire bitcoin and its blockchain technology, it requires a group of people to share ideas in order to create that with less bugs.  Personally I believe that the name Satoshi is a name of a team rather than one individual.

[elenag1142]

My hypothesis proposes that he is as yet alive and has chosen to leave the gathering just a single time, he has a method for living a lifetime with Bitcoin and I think you don't have anything to request. Satoshi is a gathering of people who split up quite a while in the past.

[Latviand]

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.

It’s that time of the year where someone has to raise this question, and after all the debates that will take place no one will know for sure what happened to him and neither will we agree on one common answer. Furthermore i don’t have much of a theory because each time I read they have found him, it only leads to disappointment as was the case when I believed that Dorian Nakamoto was satoshi but it turned out to be a false positive.

No matter where he is now, we are still thankful about his idea of this cryptocurrency 11 years ago. Maybe he is just relaxing now, if he really exist and he want to become anonymous that will make a big impact in our community and economy. It is that amazing that he manage to stay unidentified until forever so that people will be curious and let people think of his existence. A genius mindset with a futuristic point of view is really what the next generation needs not only the present, having such a great a plan and making a cryptocurrency that will benefit all of us who believe in his idea. Sometimes you just need to take a risk in order for you to know the true value or advantage of something in your life.

[FlamingFingers]

What is your Satoshi theory?
Is he deceased? Did he pass away from Cancer or some other grave illness?

I made some research about this some couple of years ago and all I can deduce from it is that Satoshi Nakatomo is still alive,  dude is enjoying his anonymous life,  I'm sure if Satoshi disclose his identity bitcoin might have not be where it is right now, he made the right decision by keeping everyone guessing about who he is and his whereabout.

Since i came here in the Forum this is the most interesting thing that i wanted to learn because it is very intriguing about what is the situation of our Mentor.
But as time Passes by?i started to Believe that either he is Alive or not?it is His decision and we cannot change that.
Satoshi can be Alive but hiding as what he did 10 years ago,or if he is dead?then let us Pray for His soul for peace.
What i am very thankful because he gave me a chance to learn this Currency and changed my life.

This question used to bother me in the past, but I just decided to get over it. Satoshi Nakamoto is/was a human being like me, and whatever he chose to do with his life is his own business, and not mine. So, I stopped bothering myself much. The Bitcoin and cryptocurrency community has grown too big now and a lot of people have joined hands together to keep this community going, so there is really no need for him now.

I do not feel comfortable with saying he’s dead lol, so I prefer to say to say that he chose to stay private. But imagine that I was the one that got the $19 billion in his wallet, lol, I am sure going to withdraw all that money. Whoever he is, he’s really good for not doing such, cause taking out a money as huge as that will affect the community.

[Ailurophile]

I think Satoshi is already deceased because it has been 11 years since it has been created my guess is Satoshi was already old when it was created so for me there is a high chance that Satoshi is already dead.
There are so many ways for Satoshi to be deceased from the past 11 years we have so many natural disaster events from all over the world and of course the fact that Satoshi could also be dead due to sickness who knows if Satoshi just recently died due to corona virus,
Of course we couldn't tell if Satoshi was one of the victim of this virus.

Satoshi who friended me years ago on P2P Foundation was actually a group.

https://p2pfoundation.ning.com/profile/SatoshiNakamoto

The coding brains (along with another coder) died a horrible death but there are still some remaining members floating around.

I believe that Satoshi is some people who work in the bitcoin project, and they share the knowledge to create blockchain technology. We don't know who is behind the blockchain technology project, but they want to give something that will make people comfortable. Maybe some of them already died a long time ago, but I am sure that there are many people behind that project still working hard and make sure the project still running for a long time. Many of them still alive until now.

[barto123]

At the end of the day, We are all Satoshi (Except CW LOL).

I have my theories about who it is (or they are), but it's better left unknown.

[MinhThanh88]

By the line he said you can see hes a no nonsense guy. If you don't listen or believe to him, that means you are not part it and can go somewhere else.
Now if he doesn't want anything to do with the current market today, it could mean he's into more important things in his life if he is alive. There is no way to verify it but definitely he had done more than enough.

[dansus021]

Satoshi right know is very well and healthy i think he know bitcoin reach new ATH as well maybe he have wallet that all people don't know about it and do it for living

[heyuniverse]

My theory was that Satoshi was a group of activists who understood that creating a new form of currency and stamping their names on it would lead to controversy (See: XRP) and would put Bitcoin's growth in jeopardy. Despite knowing that Satoshi has a large amount of Bitcoin that has since been unmoved, I speculate that originally the funds were meant as a savings account if Bitcoin were to ever grow. However, once Bitcoin started to pick up momentum, Satoshi realized how many eyes were on the account and thus kept the Bitcoins unmoved to avoid drawing attention. I imagine the Satoshi team is still out there. No longer as developers for Bitcoin but as silent eyes watching the world figure out how to utilize this invention.

Or I'm totally wrong. Same chance.
