What I feel is "we do not need him any more", but it would be far from reality. As Bitcoin was produced by organized government group which is currently disbanded, the project is over. Private keys for "Satoshi bitcoins" are probably kept somewhere in a safe place - or even destroyed.
There will never be a big "come back", do not waste your life thinking about it.
The idea has started, new market has been created. Altcoins, NFT, speculation, Chinese domination in crypto... all is on it's place.
Soon we will see first "federal" coins, e-yuan etc. And not, it will not bring "freedom".
