in contrast, it would be virtually impossible to impersonate vitalik buterin. the trade-off for ethereum is they forever have a "benevolent dictator". that trade-off isn't worth it IMO.
This is one of the things I find most amazing about bitcoin: The creator is totally anonymous.
Unlike Vitalik's Blockchain, where he is alive giving opinions and acting like a central planner, bitcoin is growing wildly without any central planner.
If satoshi was a real person, everything would be centralized on him.
