Satoshi Nakamoto should not have come out, which is to discuss the objections heard in this article. The reason is that the coin price will plummet when Satoshi Nakamoto comes out. If he came out, the Bitcoin system would be centralized. It is the mainstream view in the Bitcoin community. I opened an account on the Bitcoin forum and serialized this article, and after only a few issues, I was permanently banned. I thought that the Bitcoin forum had the spirit of Satoshi Nakamoto, and it was a free place. But they think Satoshi Nakamoto should not come out. Being banned reflects the negative results of centralization. The forum administrator said you do not need to give back your opinion because it cannot be resolved. It also reflects that the Bitcoin forum cannot keep pace with the times.

Centralization is both good and evil and cannot be generalized. Similarly, it is reasonable for anarchism for human beings to abandon them.

5.1 First half: Satoshi Nakamoto leaves - correct

Satoshi Nakamoto was left out of fear of legal persecution. Nevertheless, there were early signs of his departure, the most notable example being his natural body registered on the Bitcoin forum in October 2010.

1. The real reason he left was for fairness

At that time, the idea of decentralization was not as popular as today. People did not understand the mechanism of decentralized currency issuance as much as today, and people would suspect that the designer was fraudulent. In 2010, the system became stable and began to have a social impact. His departure will make the currency issuance mechanism fair because there is no master.

Dominance, Satoshi Nakamoto himself knows. He knows the ins and outs of everything. For example, Jameson Lopp said in the article, "Is Satoshi Nakamoto a Greedy Miner?" He studied the Patoshi model and found that until October 2009, Satoshi Nakamoto dominated Bitcoin's computing power and owned more than half of the network hash rate. Therefore, this means that he also can modify the ledger. If someone has this power, Bitcoin is a meaningless game. Therefore, whether it is Jameson Lopp or Sergio Lerner who proposed the patoshi model, they all believe that this person is Satoshi Nakamoto. But, of course, today's computing power is very scattered, and someone can't have such a large computing power.

The fairness of Bitcoin's currency issuance mechanism is reflected in the fact that Satoshi Nakamoto's currency is also mined. In the early days, Satoshi Nakamoto designed the Patoshi mode, consciously allowing his machine to pause for 5 minutes within 10 minutes. In Jameson Lopp's article, he judges that Patoshi's work mode conforms to the schedule of Pacific Time in the United States. My article confirms that Satoshi Nakamoto lives in the Pacific Time Zone. Only Satoshi Nakamoto can do this kind of "stupid" thing, and the two things reflect each other.

Jameson Lopp's confirmation that Patoshi's work mode conforms to the schedule of American Pacific Time confirms Sergio's results,  which is Satoshi Nakamoto holds no less than 1.14 million bitcoins. Jameson Lopp also confirmed that Satoshi barely moved the bitcoins by September 2022.

2. The departure of Satoshi Nakamoto marks the end of the trial period of the Bitcoin system

The bitcoin system is a tool for mining bitcoins, just like a mined gold's tool. A device is changed often, which means this tool is immature. Tools need to be repaired, but the structure cannot be changed. Satoshi Nakamoto's departure marks that the Bitcoin system's structure has not changed. The most comparable is Ethereum. The founder is still there, and he "fired" all the miners. Ethereum went from 1.0 to 2.0. As a result, the structure has changed. Today's Ethereum and yesterday's Ethereum have the same name. Bitcoin's "0.1 is consistent", sonorous and powerful.

3. The departure of Satoshi Nakamoto prompted the formation of a community mechanism

Satoshi Nakamoto is still here; decision-making will be centered on him. His departure is decision-making decentralization, which belongs to control decentralization. Bitcoin first formed a community mechanism in program development. The community is a consultation mechanism with internal checks and balances, which ensures that program development does not go astray. That is, it does not deviate from the Satoshi Nakamoto line.

4. Satoshi Nakamoto demoted himself to become a miner after leaving

The departure of Satoshi Nakamoto marks that the product can be offline. Anyone can use this product to make money; of course, Satoshi Nakamoto can. His mining continued until 2013. But this time, he is a Bitcoin civilian miner.

5. Bitcoin production is coming to an end

By the end of 2022, more than 19.6 million bitcoins will be mined. There are still 6.6% to be mined. This figure is nothing more than an annual inflation rate in the United States in 2022, and the inflation rate in the United States should be around 8%. From 2009 to 2022, the production process of Bitcoin and smooth production without accidents is the goal. This goal has been achieved. The current product development requires almost no development of the main network except for the second-layer technology. That means the first half is over. The rest of the job is aimed at selling things and promoting products.

Marketing must first be done by someone and the skills required are entirely different from those of production, so it should be market-oriented. It is the general law of product production and Marketing. Bitcoin is the product, and the Bitcoin system is the development tool. Satoshi Nakamoto is critical in the production and debugging phase of the Bitcoin system, and technical personnel are very important. In product operation and maintenance, the disappearance of Satoshi Nakamoto has more advantages than disadvantages, and technical personnel are still very important. But when all bitcoins are produced, the situation is reversed. At the end of the first half of Bitcoin, the importance of market personnel has risen, and the importance of users has increased. Bitcoin enters the second half, and the game's rules are entirely different. The law that Satoshi Nakamoto disappeared no longer applies. Technical personnel are less critical than market personnel and users.

Who Are Bitcoin Marketers? There are very few products in modern times that don't need marketing. Gold Doesn't Need Marketing. Is It a Role Model for Bitcoin? Wrong! Wrong! Wrong!

5.2 Second Half: Satoshi Nakamoto Leads the Bitcoin Community - Correct

1. Satoshi Nakamoto must abide by the rules of the community

Now the Bitcoin community is a technical community, not a user community. No user community means that users cannot participate in the decision-making of the Bitcoin system. Bitcoin's technical community proposal mechanism is complete. When Satoshi Nakamoto appeared, his proposal had to go through the process. If "0.1 consistent persists in", the structure does not change, and very few places can be changed. Satoshi Nakamoto would not agree to make Bitcoin a platform like Ethereum. So when Satoshi Nakamoto came out, he had little impact on technology.

2. There are many non-technical problems to solve

I said in the previous article that the Bitcoin technical solution is perfect, but there are also regrets; for example, there is no foundation, which is not as good as Ethereum. There is no incentive for maintenance technicians. There are no rewards for older contributors, most notably Laszlo. "I'm poor and need a donation," he tweeted. He is a figure in the history of Bitcoin, so poor that everyone sighs.

Another example is that Bitcoin is too expensive; who can decide to move the decimal point to expand Bitcoin? It also includes establishing the Bitcoin user community, the foundation, etc. These require Satoshi Nakamoto to come forward to have enough influence.

3. The prospect of Bitcoin's natural evolution is, at most, gold

Gold is an ownerless system and it is also a natural evolution. However, it cannot prevent governments from abolishing the gold standard. Can Bitcoin's natural development fortune be better than that of gold? What's more, it can't replace gold. There is no such thing as pie in the sky; projects that develop naturally and not well-marketed projects will finally be off the stage by competitors. This situation would have happened long ago if it weren't for Satoshi Nakamoto's foresight and the opponent's super-weak level. Because Bitcoin is interdisciplinary, there are many experts in a particular field, but few people really stand at the height of Satoshi Nakamoto. Bitcoin is very lucky, and it is also the luck of humanity.

4. Four-year halving is not enough to drive Bitcoin's exponential rise

Many believe that a four-year halving is enough to drive Bitcoin up. The higher the price, the greater the market value and the greater the driving force required to promote the rise. If Bitcoin rises exponentially in four years, it must have the energy to drive the exponential rise. Where does the power come from? The number of people and the amount of money will increase exponentially. The volatility of Bitcoin is not as stable as big blue chips such as Apple.

In contrast, Bitcoin is a paradise for speculative funds. The volatility shows that the "trading depth" of Bitcoin is not enough; that is, there is not enough money. The reason is that the attention of mainstream funds is not enough, only diversified safe-haven funds are paying attention. The number of bitcoin holders is less than half of that of Ethereum. How can bitcoin raise the price if these problems are not resolved? Dreaming of marrying a daughter-in-law-a beautiful idea. How to promote the exponential growth of Bitcoin? It is only possible if Satoshi Nakamoto leads the hard work of the Bitcoin community.

5. Bitcoin standard as the world's largest application, can promote the rapid rise of Bitcoin

The rise of Bitcoin requires big applications, not payment, which is a paradise for stablecoins. The Bitcoin standard is large enough as an application, and it is also the most suitable application for Bitcoin, and any product is not easy to replace. It cannot be realized if Satoshi Nakamoto does not leave the mountain.

6. Satoshi Nakamoto fulfilled his promise to realize the dream of transforming the world

The realization of the Bitcoin standard is the largest application in the world, and it requires the appeal of Satoshi Nakamoto and the community's joint efforts.

The above is why Satoshi Nakamoto came out of the mountain. If he does not go out, Bitcoin can be benchmarked against gold, and the market value of 50,000 to 10 trillion will be the top. But it is not Satoshi's goal.
