Nobel Prize - Satoshi Nakamoto

[Divinespark]

Indeed, why not? surely a prize can be awarded to a pseudonymous hacker

I doubt that Satoshi or any bitcoin people will be receiving a Nobel Prize until bitcoin gets internationally noticed. It has, but people need more trust in it.

Lets face it, it won't be too long before Sweden will start talking about giving the Nobel Prize in Economics to Satoshi.  That is pretty much a certainty.  But, who will receive the prize?  Satoshi is long gone and never coming back. 

I think Andreas Antonopoulos should accept it on his behalf.  Andreas is true father of bitcoin after satoshi and continues to be a great ambassador for the community now. 

I don't think Satoshi Nakamoto will be rewarded Nobel Prize in Economics.

It is more likely to be a Satoshi price for future economists

Satoshi Nakamoto should win the nobel prize in peace, because he helped to remove the Banker tension out of people mind....somewhat

Not gonna happen unless Satoshi reveals his true identity. Is it even under their protocol to award a non-identified person?

I'm not doubting Bitcoin's potential to win Noble prize, I just don't think it will be given to a person whose real identity is still unknown.

Satoshi caused more destruction than peace.

Look at what he's done to cex

I bet there will be Nobel prize when world discover true potential of blockchain technology. Not sure who will get prize and when but Satoshi deserve it no matter if he is one person or group.

I thought he already received one in 1994?

When bitcoin become 100k euros, Bitcoin foundation can start awarding Bitcoin prize for all sciences.

I don't think Satoshi will win it. I think Ross Ulbricht will for his "economic experiment" Silk Road.

I may be missing something, but why Sweden in particular, would be interested in doing that? I don't get it.
In any case Andreas should recieve the price, unless Satoshi himself wants to break his anonymity, which is highly unlikely.

The day Satoshi breaks his anonymity is the day that the USD and Ruble have a 1:1 trade ratio.

I think that's pretty close to the same day be becomes a dollar hundred billionaire, if we're saying the dollar crashes that bad.
