If Satoshi is ever doxxed or found by the government, then I believe that the government (egged on by the banks) will try to punish him out of revenge. Which will be very sad to watch happen but I am certain the Bitcoin community will show their discontent and try everything that they can in order to keep Satoshi out of harms way. But no matter who Satoshi is or what the government tries to do to him, Bitcoin is out of his hands and our of his control. So they cannot attack or manipulate Bitcoin by going through Satoshi. Of that I am 100 percent certain.  Wink

I would be curious to know what would he be charged with?

Also, there are many other people that have created altcoins, and are still free, and without any consequences, because there's nothing wrong in creating a cryptocurrency.

As long as there's nothing illegal or dodgy about it, it should be fine, and Bitcoin is the most transparent thing ever.

I don't think Satoshi would be in danger legally. But who knows what could happen behind the scenes.
