I know it is a fantasy but the real "Satoshi" responding to this post would do unfathomable things to Bitcoin right now. I just enjoyed the thought of it for a second.
- adastra22 3y agoSatoshi is dead, unfortunately.
- jonahbenton 3y agoWho was it, do you think?
- mr_sturd 3y agoMost likely Szabo.
- TacticalCoder 3y agoWait, is Nick Szabo dead? I find conflicting information on the Net.
- adastra22 3y agoThere's no way it was Szabo, although Szabo likes people to think it was him. Szabo's ideas for p2p currency were directly opposed to the structure of bitcoin, and he continued professing these views and critiques of bitcoin long after bitcoin was launched and achieved some measure of success.

- greyface- 3y agoHow do you reconcile this with the fact that Satoshi sent both an email and a bitcoin transaction while Hal was busy running a 10 mile race? https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37974155 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=37974155

- kibwen 3y agoUnfortunately they sealed the tomb with a cryptographically-secure boulder this time and they've been waiting patiently in the dark for someone to decipher the pattern in the public keys so they can be released. (Obligatory disclaimer: this is a joke, do not go making a religion out of this.)
- lcof 3y agoBut was it military-grade encryption?
