It's interesting to see some speculation from users here who are guessing who Satoshi Nakomoto is, even the wiki still says "Anonymous". I thought more in the future if Satoshi Nakamoto revealed himself would everything be okay? What are the advantages and disadvantages of revealing Satoshi Nakamoto's identity? From here I think it is better for satoshi to remain anonymous because the one of worst possibility is that blockchain development [bitcoin] could lead to central autonomy. The government has the power to do that, especially when it comes to intimidating someone.

Satoshi nakamoto is a living legend in which his invention changed the lives of many people. Bitcoin is a digital currency that people will never forget and will continue to pass on to future generations with the name Satoshi Nakamoto who was created it and remains anonymous until now.

This was a question many years ago, and until now no one has been able to answer exactly who Satoshi Nakamoto is, but from there everything I know Satsoshi is the inventor of bitcoin that until now everyone wants to own it,

It is really the only thing that bitcoin users know about Satoshi Nakamoto that he is the creator of bitcoin and blockchain technology. But other than that, we don't know other things about Satoshi Nakamoto and he's true identity because after he created bitcoin he remains anonymous and hidden to everyone.

[Belisarius]

Satoshi Nakamoto doesn't exist.

Trying to discover who is the guy behind this pseudonym, analyzing his now famous character, is non-sens.  

[xenon131]

New strand of old Satoshi story, he was Satoshi Nakamoto all along, believes Leah McGrath Goodman. She refers to certain points made by Dorian as well as on the scraps of the broken file which should be restored by BTC founder. I have tried to find info on his background ( education, programming experience , etc.) but with no success.

Satoshi Nakamoto's identity is not precisely known. Also like you I have investigated and came to the same conclusion that he left us Bitcoin to use it for the best purpose for which it was created.

We can only thank him because here in this forum He leave his deepest thoughts. What makes us admire him more.

I found this article worth reading because it summarizes the background to his departure.
Satoshi wished to be completely anonymous.

Satoshi’s final correspondence, from an April 26, 2011 email to Gavin Andresen, has given rise to another theory as to why he abruptly left. He wrote:

"I wish you wouldn’t keep talking about me as a mysterious shadowy figure, the press just turns that into a pirate currency angle. Maybe instead make it about the open source project and give more credit to your dev contributors; it helps motivate them."

I don't think he left us, but yes he created Bitcoin for all of us to be used for various good things. I am pretty sure he still monitor and help the development of Bitcoin till now. Even I really don't know who he is, but I am not sure if a creator will leave something he has made with a big influence on human life. Regarding his identity, I think there is no need to show it to the public even you can find out the real Satoshi. Think about his security, guys! It is not easy to be someone like him after creating Bitcoin that challenges Fiat and banks massively. Also, in certain cases, the governments intervened it. Luckily, we already had a strong community and many parties supported us day after day.

We can all guess what his intentions are for not choosing to be in the spotlight like other tech geniuses turned billionaires out there. The fact that we're not even sure if Satoshi Nakamoto is his real name tells a lot about what he's after when he proposed the decentralization of the financial system, but fame is definitely not one of them. That also proves how smart he is. He knows that with his proposal he'd be waging a battle against the most powerful people on the planet (those who are at the core of the centralized financial system) so he'd be leading a chaotic life if everyone knows him well. At least that's how I see it. Or maybe he has other reasons.

Satoshi Nakamoto has kept his identity secret. We know nothing about him. We have heard many rumors about him, as we have heard that he is from japan. From another source we know that he may be a citizen of England. on the other hand, Dan Kaminsky (security researcher) said that, may Nakamoto could be a team of some genius.  we think a lot about Nakamoto, but we cannot say anything surely about him. even after so many years of Bitcoin, Satoshi Nakamoto is still anonymous to us.

[Hanna Grey]

Wow after creating something this huge and not being know by anyone thats something new. But anyway being in the spotlight also has its cons so maybe that is why. http://www.accoladepainting.com

The mysterious creator of Bitcoin, widely known as Satoshi Nakamoto, remains the major holder of bitcoins. The number of bitcoins that Nakamoto owns today is estimated at around 1.1 million, based on the early mining that he did. Satoshi Nakamoto is the name used by the presumed pseudonymous person or persons who developed bitcoin, authored the bitcoin white paper, and created and deployed bitcoin's original reference implementation. Nakamoto was active in the development of bitcoin up until December 2010.

I think that being anonymous is the best choice that came to mind of Satoshi Nakamoto. If he had reveal his identity in the first place, I think that Bitcoin and the whole cryptocurrency would be really different from what it is right now. After all, being famous and a public figure could sometimes bring damage and disadvantage to someone.

[svaboda54]

I don't think anyone here can answer that question.

[christhemaner]

Whoever he is, he gave people a great idea. So it's not that important to me.

[online73]

Many argue that Satoshi Nakamoto created Bitcoin, this is true until no one proves otherwise. There is no clear evidence that this is a person, or a group of people. There is no documentary evidence. This is the most beautiful thing in this story, so let everyone think their own way and let Satoshi Nakamoto, at least for me, remain the creator of the most progressive and great financial system of all time. Yes, that's exactly what I think.
