Bitcoin is invented by Satoshi Nakamoto but it is common knowledge that his identity is not known.If there arise any dispute related to bitcoin or its ownership,how would it be settled by court of law or in other words who is the legal owner of bitcoin?
Absolutely not the government. Bitcoin does not belonged to any individual organizations or someone. It is the system which contains many function allow people to store their own property in computer or hardware. Satoshi is bitcoin's father, but he never intended to invent bitcoin for individual. that is my idea
normally we consider owner of a coin who create it, but i think the person who have fully control on an object and can manipulate it then he is the realy owner of that coin, as in case of bitcoin as not a single person has the right to manipulate bitcoin or can effect it and even cannot get it from any one therefore no one is the owner of bitcoin except the person who has access to the bitcoins, and can use it according to their own choice. so he is the real owner of bitcoin.
