Bitcoin and religion - these concepts are not only incompatible, but, in my opinion, have nothing in common. Bitcoin is a digital technology, a clear invention of man, a type of cashless funds. Why worship the product of human thought activity? It is not necessary to recognize that Bitcoin controls us and we are subject to it.

I think bitcoin and cryptocurrencies have become a religion in recent years, I am a believer in this technology but it is not to see satoshi nakamoto as a "god", however satoshi would be at the top

Well, the human being has a natural tendency to incur all kinds of excesses, impulses, emotions and fanaticisms, but that does not mean that everything that develops a certain obsession can be called "religion", and this is especially so true in the case of bitcoin, because what people really want is not the possession of bitcoin itself as a cryptographic unit, but the potential economic power that means its possession.

When I first read this thread I laughed a little bit but then I came across this comment and agree completely. I think we can choose to worship whomever we want but to call it an outright religion isn't necessarily true

I agree with you. How can bitcoin be a religion when we are only believing it because of its covenience and the potential it brings. It's a big difference from worshipping gods and goddesses. And even is satoshi a great genius for his discovery, it's not enough to praise him and believed him like a god.

Even if Bitcoin was created by a human, there seems to be idolatry in Satoshi. The creator of Bitcoin itself, has been largely admired by many people worldwide. We now see many project supporters who will die until the end, defending the true cause of Satoshi based on its original whitepaper. Differing cryptocurrency projects like Bitcoin Cash and Bitcoin SV have their ambitions in becoming the "original Bitcoin" (as per the whitepaper).

On the other hand, Bitcoin maximalists believe that there should be one cryptocurrency in existence. Given that Satoshi is a very bright individual, many crypto enthusiasts seem to have considered him/she/they as a "god". Those who cannot follow the Bitcoin whitepaper at its entirety, are considered "anti-Bitcoin" to most of them.

Nonetheless, I believe that Bitcoin is a religion in many ways. But not everyone thinks the same depending on their point of view. What matters is that Bitcoin is a useful decentralized cryptocurrency for the world, rather than just a movement. Just my opinion

If Satoshi comes out and  reveal himself he will be having a fan following and he is still a tech god and financial genius as he created a market which is worth multi billions and will be a trillion dollar market by the next rally but with every religion, the main attraction for everyone is the money flowing through it and in that sense too you can call bitcoin a religion  

If that is the case, hope you have heard about Edmund Creffield, Charles Manson, David Koresh and you can list a lot of people who was considered as God by a rather large group, well Jesus was a man too .

I've created a religion and combined it with a crypto currency. It's called Evolution-X www.evolution-x.com

Lol  It can be a favorite one for those Bitcoin lovers at some extent but in trading, world fluctuation is the only constant.
