Not really. Satoichi has shied away from the political motivations of a lot of the community.
- mpyne 13y agoWhat Satoshi does after releasing the creation has no bearing on the purpose behind creating something before they released it though. Realizing that you need to shy away from something after you do something doesn't invalidate the reasons behind why you did it.
- gnaritas 13y agoSatoshi's motivations were political, his first message in the blockchain makes that clear. He hasn't shied away, he's disappeared for obvious reasons.
- kaonashi 13y agoSpeaking about this: https://bitcoin.org/bitcoin.pdf https://bitcoin.org/bitcoin.pdf ? He/she/they talk about a need for finical transaction capability without the need of a trusted third party, but I'm not seeing how that was in any way overtly political.
- gnaritas 13y agoBecause I'm not talking about that. I never referenced the bitcoin paper, reread what I said.
