Regardless, I really don't understand why people care what he would think anyhow.
He is the only person that when voicing his opinion in this matter, could actually be considered unbiased,
since he was the creator and in theory would make the best choice for Bitcoin/bitcoin, and not for himself.
His decision in this matter, if 100% verified to be him, would end the debate immediately, IMO.
But, as I have said many times, I believe he is no longer living as well.
One man should never have that much power.
Satoshi comes off as a brilliant man, women or group. They will never return, their opinion is now regarded as gods opinion.. such power is bad.
Satoshi created bitcoin for the people, Satoshi can no longer be involved, Bitcoin cannot have one person/group that decides it's future.
I think you are right. When Satoshi would speak up then his word would be a law. No one would speak against without surviving it because bitcoiners love satoshi till death.
Though i think this is the biggest real crisis for the community and the development of bitcoin. Before crisis were only scams or drop of price. That is nothing with the technology. But now satoshi really could start to say a word in order to safe bitcoin. It's his child at the end.
I think he still takes part in the community. Maybe we wrote with him already without knowing it. I really don't think he is not here anymore.
