Nobel is missing something in their awards, technology. Peace is really impossible. It will fall into the economy category, although even at the current stage, bitcoin is not yet at the level wherein it influences certain nations' economies. If El Salvador somehow continues to buy at dips and then one day a single bitcoin reaches a million dollars in price, the bitcoin founder will qualify for the Nobel nominations. Anyways, posthumous is not possible for the Nobel.
Indeed, Nobel does miss a lot of categories. And more importantly, they are not a truely independant prize-award.
What I am looking forward more than any prizes is the time, when the Bitcoin whitepaper will make it into economics schoolbooks all around the globe. My guess is this will happen in around 5 -10 years.
I think it is possible, and I am very supportive of it being included in textbooks, and at least some graduate courses in universities can include white papers.
Satoshi Nakamoto should not have appeared at this stage, I am worried that he is in danger.
