No body knows the true identity of Satoshi Nakomoto and for some reasons, this person or group of persons has decided to stay anonymous. To me, I feel like they actually understood the risk of creating some things that could influence political and government power and work on its own.
If the real creators had been identified the maybe they would have been facing the governments now. And we could maybe have lost Bitcoin to the government. I think some good threads has already been made for this topic, you might want to check them out for better understanding.
