Dude was just bored and wanted to implement his idea from his University paper. He was long gone before Bitcoin became a trading commodity instead of a novel currency.
Of which Bitcoin did it to itself which is why we got hard forks like Bitcoin cash that barely reached $2k when bitcoin was at $70k.
Not to mention that plenty of superior cryptos came out to replace bitcoin like xrp, monero, etc.
These posts are often very dumb and never understand that most of these tech innovations are novel ideas from University research that happend to become the latest trend.
Even LLMs and AI have excellent use cases, yet you'll see idiots like this crap on it 24/7 like its the antichrist.
It's like blaming Einstein for the atomic bomb being dropped on Hiroshima.
Ha, Einstein yeah right.
Thanks, Obama
Adam Back, who potentially might be Satoshi himself, is the CEO of the company that advised against increasing block sizes. It was more profitable for him if the main chain is inefficient.
Here's a decent video on this conspiracy theory
So there's some malice involved here, but not sure if the malicious person was Satoshi himself or if Satoshi and Adam are different people.
That's still a YouTube conspiracy theory after all these years because it was always bullshit from scammers pumping "Bitcoin Cash". Everyone downloading everyone else's coffee purchases to store forever is wildly inefficient scaling.
The big miners were pushing for increasing the block size because it favors more centralized datacenters and discourages end users from running fully p2p nodes.
All other theories about who Satoshi was including that one seem nutty, once you read about the life of the late Len Sassaman: https://evanhatch.medium.com/len-sassaman-and-satoshi-e483c85c2b10
