Considering all the people asking this question are obviously noobs, think about it, if you discovered a highly advanced piece of alien technology that could dramatically change the standard of living for the whole planet what would you do? I'm talking on the level of technology that would involve long distance space flight and electricity generation.
If Satoshi came forward he would have everyone from news journalists to the government to the fucking mafia coming after him, this is exactly the way to introduce such a technology and cryptocurrencies are in fact something brand new. Now that everything has spread out and most programmers know exactly how it's all put together and anyone can make it themselves there is no benefit from trying to monopolise this technology since everyone knows how to make it anyway. This means there is a lot less risk posed to him now and even if they did find the guy it wouldn't amount to anything since everything he knew was posted online for all to see.
That's the kind of level you have to think of this on.
Totally agreed about that, There is no need for Satoshi Nakamoto to be known who is he in real life we just need to be thankful to him that he introduced us to a revolutionary system that is already changing the world, kudos to the legendary Satoshi Nakamoto.
So what's the official day?
Almost four years later and it hasn't been implemented.
And now its been 8 years and still not implemented lol.
And the one who started the thread also disappeared too, no more holiday now lol.
Just one of the many ideas that failed to make a good traction. We already have the Pizza Day celebrated everywhere but I don't think there is any good interest for another we should celebrate. But what about a Satoshi Day instead...a day where we remember and celebrate the life of a man who brought to us bitcoin and the blockchain technology? Rather than ponder on why he left...maybe we should celebrate on the things that he left as a gift.
