you guys know that the whole thing is called cryptocurrency and it comes from cryptography in a sense

so if someone that creates crypto software- what makes you think he uses his real name to sign something

i mean has anyone ever tried to decrypt the name Satoshi Nakamoto?

also another fact is - the 2 persons that did the pizza transaction are virtually nonexistent aswell, or has anyone ever met those 2 guys, just asking

So that leaves you with cryptocurrency invented by a name that might be encrypted aswell and the first transaction has been done by 2 persons that don't even exist

why dont you keep diggin folks?
Satoshi Nakamoto is the name used by the pseudonymous person or persons who developed bitcoin, authored the bitcoin white paper, and created and deployed bitcoin's original reference implementation. When Satoshi Nakamoto built Bitcoin, design choices were made that effectively limits the number of Bitcoins that will ever exist to (roughly) 21 million.  There is a Japanese American man living in California by the name Dorian Prentice Satoshi Nakamoto, but he was born just Satoshi Nakamoto. He was trained as a physicist, but has claimed that he is “no longer involved [with bitcoin].” Hence, if he wants to expose himself in public, then he could just entitle himself in public, so I think he wants a peaceful and private life so, I think we need to stop asking and searching who Satoshi really is.
