I don't care who the Sathoshi actually is. I only care about his amazing work. We should really thankful to him about the work. If he needs to be anonymous, let him be. It is his right.

franky1 is now also an enemy of fungiblity and not just decentralization? color me surprised.

FWIW, rumor I'm hearing is that Wright is going to be the marketing face for some a new altcoin.   If anyone is selling futures on it, I'm interested in shorting it. Tongue


How are your attempts at destroying BTC using LN going?     Wink

LOL, you do know that BTC is Centralized to the Chinese Mining Pools, they are the ones blocking segwit.  Cheesy
So the battle to be Decentralized has been lost for over a year.


 Cool

FYI:
By the Way , Franky1 is Correct and Gmaxwell is incorrect.
4 is more than 2.   Cheesy

Major news outlets are once again said to be conducting an investigation into the story, with releases coming out as early as next month.

All right, bring it on. Until then, nice attempt from Coindesk to have a few more clicks on their website.

Due to several issues coindesk lost its hard gained reputation. Now it could have made plans to regain the same traffic to the website through such statements. This might grab the attention of most users as it is a sensitive information.

May be craig have paid some bucks to coindesk for this rumor. No any source is mentioned on the article, so i will consider this as another attempt to create fud and panic in the market. Nobody gonna believe him as satoshi

I believed that I could do this. I believed that I could put the years of anonymity and hiding behind me. But, as the events of this week unfolded and I prepared to publish the proof of access to the earliest keys, I broke. I do not have the courage. I cannot
He cannot because he don't have access to those earliest key.  Grin

And im not believing this shit anymore. Wheres the evidence that Craig Wright is the real Satoshi Nakamoto? Anyone can claim he is Satoshi Nakamoto. Satoshi Nakamoto will not reveal himself. I've read many of this kind of news. And all of it is just rumors. Also i never agree bitcoin is just created by a single person only. They should be a group.
I doubt it was group, how could group maintain long term conspiracy and refrain from spending  bitcoins

In this thread, large block maniacs show that their judgement is equally poor in other domains.


yep rational people want dynamic blocks of lean tx's starting at 2mb block buffer limit..

large block maniacs want 4mb weight.

you can spot a maniac when they cant even tell you that 4 is bigger than 2..so will refuse to admit they are the large block maniacs,

if you cant admit that 4 is bigger then 2 and always try to make it sound like 2 is bigger than 4.. then no one should take any notice of other word twisting crap thats said

Why do we even discuss this topic once again? Because Coindesk decided to strike again with this drama series - "We know who Satoshi is, maybe"?
Until we have real, valid and irrefutable proof that Craig can present to everyone, publicly, confirming his identity as Satoshi, until then I refuse to believe in this rumor.

they also want to bulk up lean tx's into being bloated tx's with 1kb confidential Pedersen commitments in the future.
they even deny their pay cheque comes from corporate and banking sources
I must say you're even better story teller than Craig Wrightoshi himself.

Btw why did you remove the last paragraph from your comment? Wink
because confidential Pedersen commitments is their future plans. and because its not yet official, i presume they will deny it even is in the plan and then meander the topic into more maniacal over dramatics by stating they have not added it yet so i must be wrong... rather than admit i see a few steps ahead of what they are ready to admit.
so i left off their future plan to reduce their maniac mindsets of twisting words.

as for how they are paid. well they will denie they are paid to work on bitcoin and deny their blockstream investors have anything to do with bitcoin... more nonsense meandering away from the topic at hand.

so i tried to stick to the point gmaxwell made.. and just highlighted where he failed.... 2mb block vs 4mb weight.. which is bigger.. even a 6yo knows 4 is bigger

WTF?  This is turning out to be pretty weird.  Why is the world starting to accept this as fact all of the sudden?  
http://www.coindesk.com/bitcoin-new-satoshi-nakamoto-rumors/

Don't bother reading it. The article just contains a bunch of speculation and innuendo. It contains no facts.

Here is the article with all the fluff taken out:

Yeah -- I think maybe Coindesk was having a slow news day.  Tongue Cheesy Lips sealed

That is a weak argument given the intellectual caliber of the people he "conned".

you need to know his whole back story.

1. in something like 2013 he told a friend to set up a trust. and the collateral was a bunch of PUBLIC KEYS
he did not show proof of signatures of the PUBLIC keys. he relied on his friends naivity to only check the balances of the PUBLIC KEYS to get a total value to use as collateral.

2. emphasis the friend did not understand bitcoin so thought showing public key was like showing a bank statement as proof enough of holding.

3. then using the TRUST which is then falsely insured for multiple millions of dollars of value. (although it held 0 assets and just a list of random early adopter public keys). that TRUST fund was then used as collateral to then get other investments by FALSELY suggesting it was secured by million of assets. due to an insurance policy insuring the trust.

4. the now invested fund was then used to make other investments..

5. australian authorities questioned the trust so he legged it to england.. then craig contacted media and started his own 'i am satoshi' whispers because the australian government were doubting his trusts assets.

6.  later people have seen that the proof is not proof. but publicly available data.. this has made the first trust funds assets factually reduced to zero. meaning the initial investors will want to drop out. which is snowballing right now like ripples in the water. each level of investment has now realised their funds are not secure.

7. now craig wright is trying to get patents and do book deals, etc to try raising capital and creating assets to bulk up the empty trust to try and salvage some value of that empty trust. purely to avoid civil and possible criminal charges if he ever got deported to australia to have to answer for his actions. he thinks if he can replace the PUBLIC key fake asset with patents and book royalty contracts to then give the trust real value, he can avoid civil/criminal actions by showing the trust holds real value.

he isnt satoshi, he just didnt think the community would recognise the signature

as being a publicly available string of text for the last 7 years

he thought people wouldnt pick up on it so quick. so had to play backtrack
i feel sorry for all the investors he has conned

That is a weak argument given the intellectual caliber of the people he "conned".

The probability is quite high that he is Satoshi but the surprise unknown coder may shock people even more.  I hope so.  Smiley

he is not satoshi.
the article says "relates to craig wright"

which made me look back at the research rabbit hole of who first introduced craig wright at a conference a few years back.. that RELATED person being nick szabo..
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LdvQTwjVmrE

to re-open the can of worms of Szabo maybe being satoshi.
eg "nick got craig to play along as craig being satoshi, to take some finger pointing away from nick himself"
where the first finger pointing years ago was due to szabo's pre bitcoin 'bitcash' concept that inspired satoshi, years after bitcash was conceived.

but knowing coindesk is writing the article.. im sure the other old inspirations will mention adam back due to coindesks attachment to blockstream.

then a further 2 cents. adam back will proclaim he is satoshi, just so everyone should rush and buy into his LN commrecial hubs concepts...
blockstreams scripts are easy to predict.



and this is why craig wright fails the "who is satoshi"
he is into law and forensics and see's bitcoin being used
https://youtu.be/4GuqlQvFYJo?t=1m40s

satoshi hated the idea of identifying people/corporate marketing of data


Where in that video do you Szabo introducing Wright or having any relation to Wright?

And in your second video if you pay attention Wright talks about how one will be able to use things like apps to enhance privacy.  That's as good as you're gonna get in the world of blockchains - sorry if you actually drank the Roger Ver happy juice.
