we can’t really change how the network works, it’s always been that way, and it’s open source. But I believe what Satoshi really wanted was for people to transact freely, with no KYC, no restrictions, and complete anonymity.

In as much as I agree that Satoshi himself would have been happy or will be happier that more people are using it in an anonymous way rather than all this centralization we see today, I think he would still be happy how far bitcoin has grown. I can say that Satoshi in my opinion didn’t necessarily want to dictate how bitcoin is been used and that’s why it was design to be Pseudonymous, if Satoshi had wanted less non-flexibility he would have simply created it to be simply Anonymous strictly.

But Satoshi was all about Freedom, he simply wanted people to do what they can with the currency, how they want it and been restricted like the fiat. Satoshi didn’t even create it to eliminate the traditional currency, so yes he wouldn’t be that too bad only thing I think Satoshi would have wanted more is for it to been used as a Peer to Peer currency rather been hold only

I don’t think he’s happy, considering he hasn’t touched his Bitcoin in about 15 years. Reports say he holds around 1 million BTC, so why isn’t he spending any of it? Maybe he’s just waiting for the day he surpasses Warren Buffett, like some news outlets have speculated.

This is a poor take in my opinion, not selling doesn’t mean he is not happy with it, he might have actually leave off is bitcoin just to support the network more, do you know what FUD it will create that Satoshi move his coin out? Talk more of selling or taking anything like profit? That’s simply someone not believing totally in his own innovation, best he will do is to use it for peer to peer exchange he will never moved it to any currency.

Further more it is wrong to even think that Satoshi would want to overtake anyone in terms of wealth, if Satoshi was about this he would made more bitcoin to his name through mining more or through a mechanism that still gives him more, which today would have entirely killed bitcoin
