If its not the government that do him in,there are people that would think he is sitting on valuable info or bitcoins that could be worth their well to attempt kidnapping him/her.

If Satoshi was to come forward and not have any of those things happen I would be shocked but going back to government...

I would treat him the way I treat apple after they claimed not to hand over a way to get into that terrorists cellphone. It was suspect and I would suspect he/she also had given the government a way to circumvent bitcoin when the time was needed. Call me a tinfoil hat thinker but I tend to think that way about a lot of stuff. Could see the potential for them to figure out who he is and force him to play ball or get the Snowden treatment. Reflecting on the issue for some time because it seems to be a ongoing issue knowing who he/she could be I came to the conclusion it was not a good thing for his safety.If its not the government that do him in,there are people that would think he is sitting on valuable info or bitcoins that could be worth their well to attempt kidnapping him/her.If Satoshi was to come forward and not have any of those things happen I would be shocked but going back to government...I would treat him the way I treat apple after they claimed not to hand over a way to get into that terrorists cellphone.

At least his friends or family member should know about this invention then why they don't reveal the secret what's the use of keeping it secret. They might think that if they reveal the truth they might be arrested by police because it's a public property which affects paper currency. But if he reveals the truth then he might face some problems that why he is not cunning up. It's my opinion.

This will be something interesting to know, once it happens (if it ever does) sometime in the future. Please feel free to share your thoughts here.

What do you think that will happen once the real Satoshi reveals himself (and proves that he created Bitcoin)? Will Bitcoin ever be the same? Will governments try to pursue Satoshi and put him in jail?This will be something interesting to know, once it happens (if it ever does) sometime in the future.

Now of course that is assuming there is enough information to prove that he's the real satoshi, and until that information is made available I don't think he would rustle anyone's jimmies. Likely nothing would change, chances are he would be viewed as a target for a lot of countries and they would likely want to get their hands on him (or them) and gain access to the base technology behind Bitcoin.Now of course that is assuming there is enough information to prove that he's the real satoshi, and until that information is made available I don't think he would rustle anyone's jimmies.

There are the mining pools and the traders and who know who else pulls some strings in the background.

And everybody is looking out for the best outcome for himself.

I don't think that Satoshi could do much against the idea of profit.

Business would just go on the same way it does today.

September 23, 2016, 08:07:21 PM #12 If he stayed anonymous for up to 7 years and more I don't think he will reveal himself anytime soon if he will at all. I think nothing would happen to bitcoin unless he decide to try to hack it as he can do it considering he is the creator he knows all of the basics.



If he doesn't intervene in anything then absolutely nothing will happen to bitcoin because bitcoin has a really good team of developers behind it(core developers).
