Question:
We all know that Satoshi disappeared after Gavin talked to the CIA...

It is mostly assumed (I think) that Satoshi left the project voluntarily..

But how do we know that the CIA didn't get to him first?

Is it not plausible that the CIA was successful in tracking him down?

Disclaimer:
I’ve been into bitcoin for about 3 years now, but I haven't used much time on this particular topic. I’m probably just missing some pieces of the puzzle…

Could somebody please fill me in on the information that I’m missing?

We don't know what happened to him, and unless satoshi revels himself to the world and proves himself to be satoshi the truth is we will never know, however since he hid his identity from the beginning then the chances of that is very low.
