This was the most amazing experience of our lives.

Of course you shouldn’t believe it ever happened. Like we always recommend - you should demand transparency from us and ask for evidence. Don’t trust, verify. Nullius in Verba. Take no one’s word.

Satoshi would not let us use recording devices, so you will have to think and decide for yourselves. Was this interview even real?

INTERVIEW:

The Society of Problem Solvers: We are very honored and grateful to meet you - the legendary Satoshi Nakamoto, creator and author of the design papers for Bitcoin. Many people didn’t believe you were a real person. Some questioned if you represented a group of people, or were even a myth.

Satoshi: What makes you so sure I am a real person?

The Society of Problem Solvers: hmm-

Satoshi: Whether or not I’m real, or this interview is real, is not important. What is important is that you ask the right questions. We don’t have much time. The people you just mentioned had a good one, so let’s start there. Yes it is true. I most certainly do represent more than just myself.

The Society of Problem Solvers: Really? Who do you represent?

Satoshi: Everyone. All of you. The poor. The well off. The educated. The uneducated. The left. The right. The protectors. The weak. Every person who has been harmed in any way by the systems that govern over our lives. I represent you all.

The Society of Problem Solvers: Is there anyone you do not represent?

Satoshi: Yes. I do not represent ‘The Corrupters.’ They are my opposition.

The Society of Problem Solvers: The Corrupters?

Satoshi: Yes, The Corruptors. The people who are corrupting our systems. Some people call them the elites. Others call them the globalists, the colluding oligarchs, pick a name... I simply prefer to call them exactly what we know about them. Nothing more. Nothing less. They are ‘The Corrupters,’ corrupting everything they touch. Especially the systems that govern over humanity.

The Society of Problem Solvers: What systems have they corrupted?

Satoshi: Ha! A better question might be: ‘What systems have they not corrupted?’ They have corrupted governments, media, religion, academia, science, justice departments, family, medicine, food, military, farming, money…. shall I go on? If there is a system worth corrupting, they have corrupted it - or at least tried to.

The Society of Problem Solvers: Why would they do this? Shouldn’t they be using their positions to help humanity?

Satoshi: You would think. But the ‘why’ is not important right now. Again, my time is limited for today, so the important question to ask is: how do we stop it?

The Society of Problem Solvers: You know how to stop it?

Satoshi: Not me in particular, no. In fact I’m not even sure I am really here, or if I even exist, remember? But WE? Yes we know how to stop it. All of us. Me… you… and all the good people of this planet who see just how important it is to have the systems that govern over our lives be free of corruption. Our systems should be nourishing humanity.

The Society of Problem Solvers: These systems are not nourishing us now?

Satoshi: Is that a rhetorical question? What kind of Problem Solver are you? Look around! Right now all these systems are hurting people. Our financial systems are making us poorer and more in debt. Our educational systems are making people obedient rather than free thinkers full of imagination. Our food systems are making people unhealthy, weak, and sick. Obesity is skyrocketing, people are dying younger, and the percent of people living in chronic illness grows every year. Our medical systems are making lifelong drugged-up patients instead of helping people get off their medications and get back to vibrancy. Our systems of family and spirituality are being replaced with the cold dark hands of the state. Our systems of science are keeping information from us, performing dangerous experiments behind our backs, and forcing upon us the dogma that expensive peer-reviewed studies are somehow more important than the independent replication of those experiments. Our systems of media manufacture lies while keeping us divided, providing cover for The Corruptors and their crimes. Our systems of government are trying to control us instead of listening to us and working with us to help build the best societies possible.

The Society of Problem Solvers: I see your point. What can we do? Should we get rid of these systems?

Satoshi: Of course not. These systems are vital for humanity. In fact, systems are everything. If you describe the systems that govern over your life, the quality of your life is very predictable. The problem is that We the People no longer have a say in how these systems are being built or run, and there is no one protecting these systems anymore. The Corruptors have gamed everything for their own control. The police, the three-letter agencies, the politicians, and courts have all been corrupted - in top-down fashion - who is left? The Corrupters are in control now. Why would they use government to police themselves?

The Society of Problem Solvers: They wouldn’t.

Satoshi: Precisely. But it is not just the government that is supposed to be protecting these systems. In the past there would be powerful investigative journalism that would expose their corruption, and then journalists would even make cases and turn them over to law enforcement. Where is this today?

The Society of Problem Solvers: It doesn’t exist either. The journalists seem to pick “sides” and instead of prosecuting corruption it all becomes a blame game.

Satoshi: That’s exactly right. Until we fix the corruption in our systems we won’t be able to fix anything else. It is the single biggest problem that humanity faces. Furthermore - in places like America where voting for representatives take place - that voting used to give the final control to the people - to the voters. The system was decentralized in this way. But over time even that system has been corrupted. Money and dark money in politics, blackmail and bribery, and the voting systems themselves have all been victims of tampering to some degree.

The Society of Problem Solvers: So what can we do?

Satoshi: It starts with understanding systems better. We must recognize the weaknesses in systems that The Corruptors now have control over.

The Society of Problem Solvers: There are weaknesses?

Satoshi: Of course, everything has a weakness. The Corruptors are a highly centralized and highly secretive group of people working together to corrupt our systems. Knowing that, can you think of any weaknesses they might have?

The Society of Problem Solvers: Well, the best way to defeat a highly centralized entity is to create a parallel entity that is highly decentralized. Kind of like what Napster and Kazaa did to the music industry in the early 2000s. Or what the podcasts and Youtube and Substack have done to the Centralized News Networks. Or what….

Satoshi: yes….?

The Society of Problem Solvers: Or….. What Bitcoin did to centralized currencies.

Satoshi: Mmm.

The Society of Problem Solvers: So decentralized parallel systems are an obvious weakness to centralized ones. This makes sense. We should create better systems for people to exit to - just like Bitcoin did, or just like the independent news outlets are doing now. It seems like we could do this for a lot of other systems too, like medicine, academia, voting, banking, and more.

Satoshi: Correct. Decentralized systems can be amazing. But when it comes to groups of people working together using creativity to solve problems, purely decentralized systems aren’t always the best.

The Society of Problem Solvers: Then what is?

Satoshi: Decentralized but highly aligned groups of people. People who believe in the same mission statement or goal. For example, if the mission statement was to end corruption in our systems that would attract people from all over the spectrum and bring them together on common ground.

The Society of Problem Solvers: Bringing people together is a tough ask in today’s political climate.

Satoshi: Of course, that’s why the purpose needs to be something grand and worth fighting for. Something worth setting aside our differences over.

The Society of Problem Solvers: Understandable. Are there other weaknesses to The Corrupters?

Satoshi: Yes there are. Like with all corruption, The Corrupters must operate in secrecy, endlessly creating confusion and division to avoid the tyranny of the masses from turning on them.

The Society of Problem Solvers: So their weaknesses would be what? Their secrecy?

Satoshi: Yes. And their fear of us as one people unifying against them.

The Society of Problem Solvers: And how would we combat that? With forced transparency back on them? And by using technology to unify people against them?

Satoshi: Maybe you are a little more “rational” than I originally gave you credit for. These are precisely the type of answers we should be looking for. The Corruptors use technology against the people to spy on us and force transparency on us, right? They say things like, “If you have nothing to hide then you should have nothing to fear.” Well why don’t we have technology forcing transparency back onto The Corruptors, thus protecting our systems? Why don’t we have decentralized social media-like platforms whose entire purpose is to bring highly aligned people together to stop corruption and create “idea labs” and solve problems together? Why isn’t there a decentralized safe space for whistleblowers? Why aren’t there parallel transparent blockchain voting systems where people can go to verify their votes? Why isn’t there constant digital feedback loops and grading and trust scores between representatives and voters to expose in real time if the politicians are really representing the will of their constituents? Why aren’t the people using technology to better self-govern and to expose all of the corruption happening all around them? Why aren’t politicians being held accountable? Why isn’t the tyranny of masses being used to stop the biggest problem with humanity right now, The Corruptors?

The Society of Problem Solvers: Fascinating questions. What other ways can we stop The Corruptors?

Satoshi: For one, we should stop letting the corrupt people from the top-down suggest and coerce solutions to our problems. We as citizens should be part of the solution making process. We should be included in discussing, debating, and creating ideas to better humanity. We should not just be told what solution is best for us and be forced to accept it.

The Society of Problem Solvers: And that’s how the ideas are coming now? From the top-down?

Satoshi: Oh yes. Absolutely. Think about it. What are some of the current problems and issues you can think of constantly in the corporate news right now?

The Society of Problem Solvers: Racism. Immigration. Climate change. Covid. Wars. Gender issues. Gun violence. Poverty. Abortion. Inflation.

Satoshi: Are the solutions that are being presented to these problems coming from the people after vigorous discussions, grass root inclusions, idea sharing, open discourse, empathy, and debates? Or did the solutions suddenly appear from the top media outlets and politicians as the only way to solve them?

The Society of Problem Solvers: Well, they sort of just appeared. Kind of all at once. With the big companies all cheerleading for the same solutions.

Satoshi: And, are these top-down solutions working?

The Society of Problem Solvers: No. Not at all. Come to think of it, they seem to be making things worse. People are more divided. The same problems seem to persist or even be getting worse.

Satoshi: Well what if that was the goal of The Corruptors, in order to make it harder for us to focus on the real problem and fix the systems?

The Society of Problem Solvers: Well that’s an interesting possibility.

Satoshi: Let me ask you something else. What happens today when other outside ideas are presented as solutions to these problems - ideas that are not the ones suggested by the media outlets or political parties? Are these ideas considered?

The Society of Problem Solvers: You mean like when people suggested therapeutics for Covid instead of just vaccines? Or when unity and equality and inclusion are suggested as a solution for racism instead of antiracism and segregatory processes? Or when rational and empathetic compromises for the gender issues are discussed? Or when transparent and open dialogue for peace talks are offered as a substitute to calling for funding wars? Or when sensible immigration policies that account for all outcomes are considered? Or when reducing corporate emissions and private jets instead of just forcing individual people to buy expensive electric cars, replace their gas stoves or eat bugs is considered? Or when healthy lifestyle, diet changes and community is offered instead of endless pharmaceutical drugs?

Satoshi: Yes, solutions like that. What happens when you try to discuss them?

The Society of Problem Solvers:: They get shot down. People get “cancelled” and bullied in the media for even trying to discuss them. Social media companies silence discourse often with direction from the corrupt governments. Even universities - once the beacon of different ideas and open dialogue - try to silence speech. Instead of ideas being challenged - which is what we should be striving for - people are cancelled and speech is quelled.

Satoshi: Sounds like you identified many of the major problems.

The Society of Problem Solvers: So what else can be done? What would you do?

Satoshi: Changing the culture is always a good place to start. Create a movement. One that bases all of its decisions on results instead of intentions. One that demands transparency from all systems and representatives, relentlessly. One that focuses on fixing the actual systems instead of focusing on cancelling individual people. One that is forgiving instead of vengeful. One that brings people together instead of dividing them.

The Society of Problem Solvers: Then what?

Satoshi: Then I would try to organize all of the people in the technology sector to help us solve the corruption problem. These are the people who already understand the value of decentralized and transparent systems. They are people with the technical know-how to build better parallel systems. If the problem is that our systems have been corrupted, we need the experts with building systems to help us build ones that are corruption resistant. That is the best way to stop The Corruptors from being able to control our systems and use them against us.

The Society of Problem Solvers: Wow. This is really great stuff.

Satoshi: I apologize, but the sands of the hour glass are running low. It is time for me to go.

The Society of Problem Solvers:Master Satoshi, if we may call you that, thank you for all of this. It was an honor to have this conversation. Your foresight in introducing Bitcoin to the world has opened many doors for a better humanity. Can we ask one last question, please?

Satoshi: Sure.

The Society of Problem Solvers: If you were talking directly to all of humanity right now, what would you say?

Satoshi: I would say this: Be courageous. You already know what the problem is. Set aside your differences, harness the power of technology, work together to find common ground, and fight back against The Corrupters in every way possible. A much much better humanity is possible, and it all starts with the systems you allow to govern over you. Freeing humanity from corruption was the original purpose of Bitcoin, but financial freedom is just the beginning of the freedom and nourishment possible if we all work together to improve our systems. Nullius in verba - take no one’s word. Results matter most. Mankind can only find real happiness by helping others find it too. Imagination is the most powerful tool we all have. We must use it, and unite our imaginations with each other using technology and purpose. When we do this we are unstoppable.

Additional Fun Facts about Bitcoin (some from 15Facts):

1) Bitcoin’s mining difficulty is updated every 2016 blocks…. as in 6102 backwards. Executive order 6102 is when FDR forced US citizens to sell all privately held gold to the US Government or face jail. Satoshi also chose his birthday as April 5th, the same day FDR issued that order. It is also why this article was released at 6:10 am and 20 seconds.

2) The supply of bitcoin Is limited to just 21 million.

3) No one knows who created Bitcoin. The founder of Bitcoin is a person (or entity) called Satoshi Nakamoto and no one knows who that is. It is not clear whether Nakamoto is a person or a group of people. It is believed that Satoshi Nakamoto holds one million bitcoins. The satoshi is also a reference to the smallest unit of the bitcoin cryptocurrency called a ‘Satoshi byte’ or ‘Sats’. Each bitcoin is equal to 100 million Satoshis.

4) The first bitcoin purchase was for pizza. The first person to use bitcoin in a commercial transaction was a developer named Laszlo Hanyecz. On May 22, 2010, when bitcoin was a little over a year old, Hanyecz bought two pizzas for 10,000 BTC, worth tens of millions by today’s standards. May 22nd is now known as “Bitcoin Pizza Day” in the crypto community

5) A man named James Howells threw away a hard drive containing 7,500 bitcoins, now worth millions of dollars. Of all the interesting facts about Bitcoin this one might be the most painful. The hard drive apparently resides somewhere under mountains of trash in a landfill site near his home in Newport, Wales.

6) Bitcoin has been banned in several countries including China. But since being banned China has become the #2 place for Bitcoin mining, and it has become the world’s largest bitcoin trading market. Can it be stopped with laws?

7) Roughly 10% of Bitcoin’s supply has been untouched for over a decade. 1.8 million Bitcoin has been locked in dormant Bitcoin addresses.

8) Bitcoin has never been counterfeited.

9) Bitcoin was invented to stop government theft of citizen resources via monetary control. Owning it isn’t just an investment, it is a protest against the corruption. Consider this and buy just a little bit and join the protest.

As always the entire purpose of The Society of Problem Solvers is to connect with other solutions-minded results-driven people like yourself!

For over 3 billion years on this planet there were only single-celled organisms. Then one day they somehow learned to work together and make complex multi-celled creatures . Right now we are like those single-celled organisms. Our next evolution is finding how to work together, better… (like we wrote about here).
