Breaking: The Mysterious Disappearance of Satoshi Nakamoto

On December 12, 2010, Satoshi Nakamoto posted a message on the BitcoinTalk forum. At first glance, there was nothing special: he mentioned the need for patches to be made for the Bitcoin source code at that time, and also emphasized the necessity of protecting the Bitcoin network from denial-of-service (DoS) attacks. Satoshi later remained faithful to his usual style: precise, technical, devoid of clear emotions 👇🏻 "There are still many tasks to be done regarding denial of service attacks, but I am making a quick update on what I am currently thinking about at the moment, if necessary, before venturing into more complex ideas." There was no hint at the time, but this will be his final public message 🥲 After this article, there is radio silence. No more public contributions, no signs of life on the forums. Satoshi Nakamoto disappeared... and left the world in mystery 🤔 In private, he still maintains a short activity. Developers like Gavin Andresen or Mike Hearn continued to engage with him. But these conversations are becoming increasingly rare... until they finally stopped in 2011 ❌ On April 23, 2011, Mike Hearn asked him a question that everyone was wondering: "Will you ever come back?" 💬 Satoshi Nakamoto's response is annoying and mysterious: "I continued." He will never show signs of life again 👋 Satoshi Nakamoto seems unconcerned about the future of Bitcoin. "Bitcoin is in good hands with Gavin and everyone." He clearly had great faith in the Bitcoin Core developers at the time, and seemed to know that his invention would not only outlive him, but also continue to grow and evolve 🔥 Please provide the text to be translated But why did it disappear in December 2010? Many hypotheses emerge: 👉🏻 Preserve Bitcoin's decentralized vision 👉🏻 The feeling of having completed one's mission 👉🏻 Avoiding increasing pressure over time [One final strengthening factor of this option... Afterwards, caught up in political censorship in the United States, WikiLeaks decided in December 2010 to accept donations in Bitcoin.

What should make Satoshi Nakamoto worried? 🧐 This is something that one of his final messages showed, on December 5, 2010, 7 days before his public disappearance 👇🏻

"No, don't do that. The project has to develop gradually so that the software can be strengthened over time. I urge Wikileaks not to use bitcoin. Bitcoin is a small beta community in its early stages." Therefore, it is very possible that Satoshi Nakamoto saw such an exhibition as a threat to the protocol but also to his anonymity, explaining his hasty departure. After that, his final private exchange with Mike Hearn on April 23, 2011 will take place 4 days before Gavin Andresen agrees to visit the CIA to present about Bitcoin. A coincidence? Perhaps not... One thing is for sure: the disappearance of Satoshi Nakamoto has nurtured his legend ✨ 14 years after his final public message, Bitcoin still exists and stronger than ever! This project, born out of a revolutionary vision and supported by a global community, has now surpassed $1.9 trillion in market capitalization. 🚀A giant legacy, left by an anonymous creator!
