There is beauty in the idea of what he has created. I think most humans are wired to look for a leader, be it in the physical world or the spiritual realm.
What I like about the cult of Satoshi is that Satoshi doesn’t exist. It’s this collective image built over countless hours of communicating amongst thousands of people, all this based on a few traces left by an online account.
But if a movement needs a leader, because most humans are weird to think that way, having a leader who does not exist, does not control the direction and cannot be dethroned or “cancelled” because of some old tweet he wrote is a rarity and a strength.
