The beautiful thing about #Bitcoin is that it no longer matters who Satoshi Nakamoto is or was. Bitcoin is now the world’s largest, decentralized, open-source computing network and financial system — one that cannot be controlled by any person, government or other third party. If we were to ultimately find out who Satoshi is/was it would be scarcely more material now than if we found out who was the first person to create fire or play chess. All of these are now open-source gifts to humanity, subject to the overwhelming consensus of a massive, decentralized user base. So, watch this HBO flick if you must, but then get on with the task of harnessing Bitcoin #BTC in service of building a better world.
