Bitcoin is truly decentralized but companies take advantage of its decentralized idea to create a centralized form of exchange around it so they can profit from it. It's helpful for the most part, but the KYC parts are the part that makes the "decentralized" part of BTC seem non-existent. Also, if Japan had info regarding Satoshi Nakamoto, they'd probably have released it already in the past decade, and seeing they haven't we can assume they had no info about him. We can safely assume that Satoshi left no traces, at least ones that could lead back to his identity.

Quick search shows that Galvin Andresen has left programming and is now focusing on his company. His access to the Github source was stopped at 2016 after him stating that Satoshi was CSW. Not sure about more info though.

What happens if governments took down the github repository, and the .org websites associated with bitcoin and put all those geeks in jail as well whoever is funding it? Will bitcoin still run?

I doubt they could make this happen. This is probably possible if they set the name for Bitcoin as completely illegal in the entire world, stamping it's name with something similar to a criminal.

Craig Wright said in his interview with Patrick that bitcoin is not decentralised and it will never reach $100k. Im thinking why would this so claimed inventor of btc shit on his own invention? He saying btc meant to be used like cash at shops/websites but btc cannot scale to visa/matercard levels right?

Who are Cobra?
