Many believed that the inventor of Bitcoin wants to remain anonymous to avoid legal consequences as what happened during 2007 about E-Gold, one of the first digital money (Bernard, 2017). On the other hand, I think it would be better if the founder of Bitcoin will reveal his identity since many countries recognized the essence of this cryptocurrency.
If this might happen, it will contribute for more development of digital currency and regulations in Bitcoin procedures. Also, the acknowledgement must be given for the person who invented the most efficient digital currency in our society.
What are your thoughts?
If I were the creator of Bitcoin, I will surely remain unknown. Keeping my identity will be the best thing to do. I wouldn't want the authorities to be knockin' on my door every once in a while. I wouldn't want to carry to whole crypto space on my shoulder having thousands depending on me. I wouldn't want to put my life on the line! Exposing my identity to the public will be a life sentence on me and my loved ones for sure. These "men in black" will surely find a way to get hold of me and drag me into one of their bunkers. So, do you still think it would be wise for Satoshi to reveal himself to the public?
