For the same reason they remained anonymous. It goes back to the cypherpunk movement starting in the 1980s. They realized that our world is run by despots that murder anyone that threatens their power.

Any significantly advanced cryptocurrency is indistinguishable from Ponzi Tulips.

No doubt, yes. He is way too invested into this to not follow all of the main bitcoin portals (this and reddit).

The signature campaign posters adding useless redundant fluff to their posts to reach their minimum word count are lowering my IQ.

Satoshi didn't disappear... I talk to him on a daily basis. At least 35 different days a month.

answers for the people that dont search
1. if he revealed himself he would be hounded by media and asked to do lots of talk shows and conferences etc.. invading his social and /private life
2. the theory is that he does not follow the forum or reddit. this is because the whole dorian debacle that was on the forums for a few days did not draw the real bitcoin creator out. but as soon as media started hounding dorian, the real bitcoin creator obviously felt some sympathy and wanted to free the poor guy from the press hounds.. in short many bleive he seen it on Tv not the forums.
3. with the whole liberty dollar and counterfeiting stuff going on in the 1990's and 2000's why would he openly reveal his identity when creating this new currency. it was not until later that it came to general knowledge that as long as its not called a dollar or looked like a dollar, its not illegal to make currency. but now he (the theory anyway) still remains anonymous for personal reasons of not wanting fame.
4. why do people care who he is, his white paper is clearly available, his forums posts are clearly available, there is nothing more to learn from him apart from celebrity gossip about how he lives life. he made it clear why he made it, how he made it. so there is nothing else that needs to be spelled out that cant be found with a simple search

There is no point asking it for deletion. We simply need the newbie jail to be back.

No one brings down the livelihood and industry of parasitic middlemen, stamping his name to it, and expects to get away with it still breathing oxygen. Do they?

It will make him a mystery and a legend. ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) It is much more than being cool, one does not give up about a billion dollars (will be more) to be cool. It was an ideological thing. Some say he sacrificed himself in order to set mankind free from tyranny, and many books will be written in his honour. But all we know, he's called Satoshi.

I guess the simple answer would be because knowledge is power and only he knows his identity so only he has the power. Satoshi may have a checkered past but believes in Bitcoin and didn't want to be effected by his past or maybe he enjoys his privacy.. Who knows why but I understand why you ask. I ask myself how amazing it it the Bitcoin was launched after the 2008 financial collapse?

Because he can, and he did. I understand you're a Newbie, but really, this question is asked so many times the answer is obvious. Search.

Satoshi is no longer one man. If you own just 1 satoshi he is in each and everyone of us.
