When Hal Finney was looking into building a digital store of value, he needed help. Of course, being the early days of the internet, the cypher-punks (as they were known) used forums as their primary method of communication.
2008 "the early days of the internet"?How old is the author of such nonsense?
Only a kid would concoct such rubbish.
We don’t need to go into who Hal Finney is. Put simply, he is the inventor of bitcoin.
Sure, why not state an assumption as fact to start with?Conjecture.
It was through these forums that Finney met David Kleiman. Kleiman, a cryptography expert came up with the concept of “mining”, whereby a computational puzzle is solved by a network of computers to generate a new collection of transactions, known as a “block”.
Mining was not invented by Kleimann.It's already an integral part of Wei Dai's b-money.
As Kleiman and Finney began to create the bitcoin protocol, it was Finney’s idea to build an identity for Bitcoin’s creator.
Sure, why not just state assumptions as facts?Conjecture.
Satoshi Nakomoto was born from the parents of David Kleiman and Hal Finney. As the two collaborated over the specifics of the Bitcoin protocol, they realised they needed to conduct tests, get guidance from other conspirators and of course, send bitcoin.
There is no evidence of any cooperation in the design of Bitcoin.It's far more likely that Bitcoin is the invention of a single mind.
A collaborative effort would probably have resulted in a far less elegant (bloated) design.
Hal Finney had Amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as motor neurone disease (MND), or Lou Gehrig’s disease.
There's no evidence that Hal Finney knew of his ALS in 2008.His own record talks of August 2009 as the time of diagnosis.
He might have been lying to cover up, but that seems far-fetched.
Hal Finney came up with the name Satoshi Nakomoto. That much is obvious too.
Why is that obvious?Conjecture.
Hal Finney lacked the mobility to collaborate with all of the contributors of bitcoin.
Hal Finney did not retire before 2011, well after the disappearance of Satoshi Nakamoto.It doesn't follow that he lacked the mobility before.
Since Satoshi's collaboration with others was mainly via email and forums, it's also illogical why sitting in a wheelchair should have stopped him.
Dave Kleiman had all the login details for Satoshi Nakamoto’s email accounts. He had all the forum logins and passwords for collaborating. He was an expert at covering his tracks, and knew how to disappear without a trace. But he was ultimately acting at Hal Finney’s bidding.
Conjecture.Once the protocol was constructed, Hal Finney directed Dave Kleiman to make the first transaction to his wallet. It was thus only Hal Finney and Dave Kleiman who had access to the private key for the intial supply of Bitcoin.
There's no such thing as an "initial supply of Bitcoin".Does the author even know what he's talking about?
Hal Finney soon realised that the system was gaining traction. He knew that Satoshi needed to disappear. He instructed Dave Kleiman to destroy all the evidence of their collaboration (which wasn’t hard considering it was all heavily encrypted). In deleting all the evidence, Dave Kleiman sealed Satoshi’s fate for years to come. We refer to this event as the erasure.
Conjecture.For the a brief moment in history, Craig Steven Wright had a login for Satoshi Nakamoto.
WTF? Where'd that come from?Why? How? Where's TF evidence for that?
Conjecture.
Dave Kleiman needed help. We all need help. Craig Steven Wright claimed to have access to that information. He was great at winging his way through things, and he had all the cunning to convince Kleiman to let him have a piece of the action.
Why did Kleemann need help?Why would he turn to CSW?
Granted, CSW seems to know a lot about "winging it".
Kleiman sent him bitcoin using the original private key, allowing Wright to be able to showcase the earliest known bitcoin transaction (apart from the original). Wright then posted under the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto.
Every single person in the whole wide world can showcase the earliest known Bitcoin transaction.It's right there.
If this is all true, why did Hal Finney invent Bitcoin?
Hal was a masterful inventor. A bona fide genius. But he was flawed. He knew he was on borrowed time, living with ALS. He needed a way out.
Hal was not (knowingly) living with ALS in 2008, for all we know.Hal was a masterful inventor. A bona fide genius. But he was flawed. He knew he was on borrowed time, living with ALS. He needed a way out.
Hal Finney realised that his only way out was to raise enough money for treatment and eventually find a cure. He invented a new type of money specifically for this.
There's no evidence that Hal Finney used Bitcoin to raise money for his treatment.Apart from the obvious shared understanding of cryptography, software development and so on, the two had something else in common. They were both wheelchair bound.
O wow. Both their first names second letter was "a", and so was Satoshi's 
But it just might be true.
And pigs might just be able to fly. 
Skype came from Estonia too, yeehaw
