Nakamoto began the email by expressing his desire not to be considered a mysterious, shadowy figure.
In the historic communication with the subject “alert key”, Nakamoto signaled a desire to move forward, adding: “I have moved on to other things and will probably be unavailable”, and leaving the fate of Bitcoin to the community and its developers.
Satoshi Nakamoto entrusted the “CAlert” key and transmission code to the same email, stating that there are “few old users who are always around.”
While the content of the email may appear casual to observers, its significance lies in its status as one of Nakamoto’s final communications before disappearing from the cryptocurrency scene.
The email not only marked the end of Nakamoto’s direct involvement with Bitcoin, but also served as a symbolic passing of the torch to those who would carry on the vision.
Although various speculations and explanations have been suggested over the years, the true identity of Satoshi Nakamoto remains unknown, contributing to the fascination and mystery surrounding the creation of Bitcoin.
