On Satoshi Nakamotto #It'sOn
One of the great mysteries of the world, akin to the seven ancient wonders of the world, is who created Bitcoin. In this sense, Bitcoin is the eighth wonder of the world, in these modern times. There is much speculation on this subject and many hypotheses as to who Satoshi Nakamotto is. At this point, there is no known identity of Bitcoin's creator and all indications are we will never know. This is confirmed by the fact that Satoshi's Bitcoin have not moved since being initially mined, constituing a defacto treasure hunt or bounty on the Bitcoin network. Such is the level of security that Bitcoin enjoys. Many have tried to lay claim to Satoshi Nakamotto's identity and have failed. Without spending Satoshi's Bitcoin, the burden of proof remains firmly fixed on would-be "Satoshis." Much like, the Egyptian pyramids, we will just live in a world where we admire, marvel and appreciate the miracle of such an engineering feat without ever finding out who did it and how it was accomplished. With this in mind, the idea that DARPA or the CIA might be the inventor of Bitcoin is a non-issue. Regardless of your views on these government entities, Bitcoin is a decentralized network, spread across the global, owned by no one and uncapturable by advaseries. Like the world wide web, once Bitcoin was unleashed into the world, it has taken on a life of its own. As it matures, its value proposition in monetary terms and purchasing power has nowhere to go but up, "gradually then suddenly." Worrying about who built Bitcoin Core is a distraction. Consider this fact that most people don't realize their electricity is courtsey of Tesla's discoveries. Bitcoin and electricity exist in the world and we are the better for it.
