So this Craig Wright claims to be Satoshi. It has the media and half the bitcoin community up in arms. Why is it such a big deal? The whole point of bitcoin was to have nobody controlling it. Whether or not Craig is Satoshi, why does anybody care? It isn't important to Bitcoin at all. The miners and the people who transact via Bitcoin are more vital to it's survival than finding Satoshi will ever be.
It's true when you say that nothing would change if we would know who Satoshi is.
The mainstream media however doesn't seem to understand what decentralisation really means, or what open source is.
A part of them still seems to think that Bitcoin is controlled by somebody.
Furthermore it's all about sensationalist journalism.And maybe or lets say there are definitely people out there hunting for those 1 million BTC.And to find those you have to find out who Satoshi is.
