On this day 14 years ago, Satoshi Nakamoto, the anonymous creator of Bitcoin, posted his final message on the Bitcoin forum. According to Bitcoin historian Pete Rizzo, Satoshi stopped activity on the platform on December 13, 2010 and never returned.

Satoshi Nakamoto’s final post on the Bitcoin forum on December 12, 2010, and disappearance on December 13 of the same year marked a significant milestone in Bitcoin’s history. Satoshi’s departure transferred the responsibility for the development and management of Bitcoin to the decentralized community. Please provide the text to be translated. Fourteen years later, Bitcoin still stands as evidence of the power of decentralized technology, thriving without direct intervention from its creator. This leading cryptocurrency has become a trillion-dollar asset, inspiring the birth of thousands of cryptocurrencies and blockchain-based applications.

To date, the true identity of Satoshi Nakamoto remains a mystery. There are speculations that it could be an individual or a group of developers, but no concrete evidence has been presented.
