Of course, no question! Evidences lead to Satoshi only exist in relation to Bitcoin.
But honestly, such a person will not disappear into a lonely cave somewhere, smoke a cigar and think: Hopefully nobody will find me!

Yey, it is possible for me, that he might be have supported other projects under another pseudonym, or maybe even still does...
It's just a hypothetical question that I have asked myself here. I am of course fully aware of that Satoshi would be pretty stupid if he could be connected to other projects without a doubt.
I hope from heart that will never happen, that he will be exposed, but he not want it by himself.

What I want to say with this: It is completely human to think about such a myth and the person behind it...
It has little to do with evidence, that is rather irrelevant for me here...

I suppose that I am not disagreeing with anything that you are saying, and probably there has built some unnecessary sensitivity in the subject from seeing how "satoshi's" name has been employed in the years following his disappearance from bitcoin.

Surely Satoshi remains a great backstory for bitcoin, and surely there are not too many prominent examples of a person (or entity) to have been able to contribute so much foundation to such seemingly paradigm shifting project in its early days and to maintain so much mystery regarding what happened to him and to the extent he still might be working in our midst under another pseudonym or even under his real identity.. whether in bitcoin or some other project.. and sure there are actual possibilities that he might have been at or near the end of his life, too.... but still an ongoingly great story.. that is likely not going to stop in terms of either the ongoing speculation or even some ways that the name or the concept is going to continue to be used in marketing or media.
