How does Satoshi's anonymity affect the trust of users and investors in the Bitcoin network? Can this anonymity be considered an asset or a drawback for the legitimacy of the cryptocurrency?
From the very start, he was already anonymous, and the fact that we've reached this level already shows the trust of the investors. I might even be concerned if he appeared, as it could change everything about Bitcoin being the best asset - who knows, it might be replaced by another asset.
There’s a reason why he kept himself anonymous, and one big reason is to stay safe with all the wealth he holds. If you were someone holding close to 1 million Bitcoins, would you make yourself public or keep your current status?
