Why do you believe Satoshi Nakamoto...

[RodeoX]

I think Satoshi (聡) means something like "wisdom" in Japanese.

I think one of the creators could be or be associated with the same man who started both mtgox and ripple..but theres no way to know

Safely assuming that Satoshi Nakamoto is a pseudonym, why do you believe he (also, safely assuming, albeit I have another theory) choice that one as his moniker?

Japanese names are written family name first, thus Nakamoto Satoshi.  Look at the first letter in the family name + first two letters of the given name = NSA.

Nakamoto means "central origin"
Satoshi means "clear-thinking; quick-witted; wise.", ie intelligent

Thus Nakamoto Satoshi can be interpreted as "Central Intelligent"

Thus I believe if he was not *from* the NSA or CIA, he was covertly referring to them in his choice of pseudonym.

it rather seems to me he named himself after some online dice game

Makes sense to me.

We will never know because I believe Satoshi is an AI. It has created bitcoin and crypto currencies to take control of our Economy. This is because major obstacle to adoption of any new technology is fear of lack of work and the resulting financial repercussions. This fear is even more amplified when it comes to AI. A machine more intelligent than human can do anything better than any human on the planet. Then what will the Humans do? If they don’t have any job how will they earn ? Economics always drives all decisions. So, the AI proposed a solution.

You don’t need to work to generate wealth much like you wont need to do anything in your future. Automatic Cars to automated farms, everything to be done by machines. These machines too will be designed and created by other machines. Oh then what will we do then you ask what about our jobs, how will we earn? And the machine has replied with a machine to generate wealth. All you need is a miner for bitcoin or whatever crypto currency you like. A machine created by machines will generate wealth for you , a machine created by a machine will clean your house, drive your car and cook you food. And no, a machine is not malevolent or benevolent, its just logical. And guess what another machine will take care of it if it malfunctions.

So, Satoshi Nakamoto is just a joke in some binary language that we don’t understand.
