Economist: Nakamoto's Anonymity a Boon for Bitcoin, Not a Concern

Macroeconomist Lyn Alden believes Satoshi Nakamoto's anonymity benefits Bitcoin by removing ultimate authority.

Alden says Nakamoto was remarkable for launching Bitcoin anonymously, not manipulating it for personal gain.

She believes comparisons of Bitcoin to religion shouldn't be negative, as it could gain millions of adherents.

Alden disregards rumors about Nakamoto's identity, saying evidence should exist by now if affiliated with NSA.

The crypto industry continues speculating about Nakamoto's identity, with recent reports suggesting Elon Musk.
