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?

Actually, Satoshi's anonymity is an asset to Bitcoin. It makes it stronger and more decentralized than other projects. Without someone to focus on, all of the attention goes into the cryptocurrency itself. Not like Ethereum's Vitalik Buterin where most people follow him like he were some sort of "god".

Exposing Satoshi's identity would prove to be risky for the longevity of the project. We don't want governments behind Satoshi's "tail", do we? It's best to leave everything as is. For the good of Bitcoin and the whole crypto industry. Aren't we all Satoshi? Smiley
