If I was a developer, I would always conceal my personal details at least for security reasons. I'm concerned about possible persecution by the government and abuse by hackers.

Just an observation. I've seen several people trying to throw shade on Bytecoin using developer's anonymity as an argument.
Why in this world would anybody tell their real names when the coin is anonymous, moreover it's all about anonymity? As @Levis said before, staying anonymous is safer

You're missing the point entirely. There is no problem with their real names not being known. What must be known is their identity. There are many, many people involved in cryptography projects whose real name is not known, but you can search for their nickname and find blog posts and comments and archived mailing list emails and forum posts from years and years back. In other words, they are known identities even if they're not known personally.

So far we have not found anyone who can vouch for Bytecoin's pre-March 2014 existence who is a known identity.
