Satoshi is always watching from afar....

[Addition]

Person or Group, you can be sure they are aware of project evolution and monitor key BTC metrics.

Would be great to hear;

*his views on POW progression and any potential modifications.

*whether he is targeting a specific political agenda ("killer application" once BTC has reached a critical mass? (I like to believe this to be true, in that it will be his ultimate gift to the world)

*planned "Air Drop" where perhaps he will distribute BTC to consensual economically deprived communities, to level the playing field. I would donate a proportion of my holdings to this project.

*key Energy producers and their integration of POW mining farms (at/nr. source).

*viable ways to outlaw % reserve Central Banking and thus his connection, if any, to JFK administration and would-be plans.

Think most of us just hope he's doing well and in good health - and one day we will hear from him again.


If you had 5 minutes with the man, what would you ask him?

[hamdi]

i would ask him his private keys

[CoinRocka]

I would ask him if it hurt....when he fell from heaven?    

[yefi]

I would ask him what it feels like to be naked with another man.

What does that solve?  Nothing.  That Bono guy used to be all about dumping truckloads of money into Africa until he figured out it didn't accomplish anything.  It sounds like you have some kind of Marxist world view where you think all humans are the same, all cultures are the same, everyone if left alone with enough time and resources is going to build space shuttles, etc.  The fact is, very few human civilizations even invent things as simple as democracy and republics...most drift towards things like tribal warlordism or dictatorship.

The main thing I could see it accomplishing would be to induce a decent percentage of people have an interest in Bicoin succeeding (rather than at best not giving a fuck since they don't have anything on the line.)

But it would take all of about 1 week for most people to blow their endowment on energy drinks or whatever and things would be right back close to how they were before the event but with the same pockets which are full of Bitcoin being a bit more full.

Might be something to employ as a one-time fix (like, say, Bitcoin to be outlawed worldwide) but really why bother?

He could find some  third world country and make a deal with the county's overlords to create a province of anarchist neckbeards dedicated to freedom.

There are some posts speaking to points along those lines:

... Another way they can become more practical is if I implement client-only mode and the number of network nodes consolidates into a smaller number of professional server farms.  ...

At first, most users would run network nodes, but as the network grows beyond a certain point, it would be left more and more to specialists with server farms of specialized hardware.

Some hints about political views too:

It's very attractive to the libertarian viewpoint if we can explain it properly.  I'm better with code than with words though.

Yes, but we can win a major battle in the arms race and gain a new territory of freedom for several years.

The only thing pertaining to bitcoin that I think would be genuinely interesting to ask him would be if he'd consider spending his coins, in a single transaction, to an unspendable output.

[twister]

I would ask him what it feels like to be naked with another man.

Lmao 
Why would you ask him such a thing?

I'd ask him may I have some bitcoins, 10 1 maybe??

[piramida]

And if you've met Jesus, you would ask him for one of them fishes? Dream a little bigger, brother.

[premium_domainer]

i asked him to move this thread to off-topic.   

[billyjoeallen]

I would ask him if he ever planned on spending any of his coins and if he could tell me a day ahead of time so I could short the fuck out of the market.

Satoshi may become the world's first trillionaire, but the the hour any genisis block coins move, the market will crash by 50%.

You're right 
If I met jesus, I'd ask him "may I have some bitcoins" lol
I am sorry but day and night there's only one thing on my mind; Bitcoin!

Of course it's not possible to spend a genesis block coin anyway...

[elephantas1]

i would ask him if he could make bitcoin v2 and make its price jump like bitcoin price jumped

[pitham1]

I would ask him if he would reveal himself and head the Bitcoin Foundation.

[exocytosis]

I'd ask Him what it felt like when he created The Heavens and The Earth.

Praise the Lord Satoshi.

Amen.

Yuck.  No wonder the guy is laying low!
