Satoshi made bitcointalk and passed on ownership to theymos.

Do you think Satoshi wants his forum to ~~sell~~ whore off space to crapcoins?!?!

Satoshi left this forum, theymos ended up being the de facto owner. If you have other infos please provide.

I've decided not to create an official announcement thread today. But I will answer some questions.

Who is the owner of the forum?

I've answered this before.

The forum was created by Satoshi and Sirius. Without any explicit agreement or assignment of ownership, it came to be the case that I am now chiefly responsible for forum management. The domain is owned by Sirius. I have no way of forcing him to do anything with it. (Though I recently did gain partial access so that I can change DNS records.) I control a lot of the forum's money. Sirius cannot force me to do anything with this. Various treasurers control other forum money; they're bound by the treasury agreements.

I am not a lawyer, so I can't say for sure who the forum's owner is legally-speaking, and this is irrelevant to me unless I'm dealing with legal stuff.
