“As Barthes said, “If there is an author, the text may then be conclusively explained”. As long as Satoshi stays on the run, the myth goes on.” Humanyun and Belk (2018)
Kind of a weird paper about authorship and the identity of Satoshi, but also kinda cool. One thing that was certainly established was Craig Wright is not Satoshi, but also the emergence of new “prophets” that could be Satoshi strangely mirrors the idea that Bitcoin in a way is similar to other religions where new prophets emerge and profess that they have the “true message of God/Satoshi”.
Also, stay humble, don’t let your Bitcoin religion become too dogmatic, stay open to new ideas, while to Socio part (Hayes 2019) may determine how Bitcoin can integrate with our lives, underneath it all, while important, it is still simply better money, and what we build upon that base it was is most important.
