Valid overall but I think you're missing some scenarios. How about the scenario that we don't in fact know who created Bitcoin. We are told to believe that it's some benevolent individual during the height of the 2008 GFC. Probably a handful of people know his or her real identity, or if it was a group. And there is a nonzero chance that the entire thing was a setup or psyop perhaps to track and trace humanity but have them beg for crypto during peak distrust in the global financial system - there is no hiding possible on a public ledger on a long time horizon given advanced computing and forensics.
Maybe it sticks around because that was the intention to be used for, or maybe it was meant to trick people and used as a trap to decimate investors and retail - or even blame on the next major recession, whenever that happens. Whoever created it could one day unveil their identity, or dump their coins. Many things that crypto investors just take for granted could happen that actually have no clear answers at this time.
