Satoshi is a mysterious figure that could very well not exist. I heard theories ranging from CIA creation (which doesn't really make sense) to some secret libertarian industry consortium seeking to rebel against governments and regulations in the long term.

It's going to accelerate the death of some crypto algorithms, which may speed up the ability of the NSA to unlock extremely vast troves of encrypted information they've stored but can't decrypt. When all else fails, open it up to the market to solve the problem, and provide a massive financial incentive to do so.
