Wonder if anyone has informed the Australian Taxation Office about this...
I'm sure Mr. Wright already planned out how to deal with the ATO, what kind of manoeuvre he's playing out with the government is more interesting in the coming days.
As he proclaimed to be the one, he can also claim that he lost all his keys in a boating accident. What kind of taxation consequence would he face?
...all that remains to be seen is if it's real, or smoke and mirrors.
Have you read none of this thread?
And another "atmosphere" blog post from the BBC which I haven't seen linked yet

How ridiculous is that? The genie is out of the bottle, all that remains to be seen is if it's real, or smoke and mirrors.

He accused journalists of threatening to make up stories about him if he did not cooperate and said lies had been told that would affect his family and his staff.

But he bridled at my suggestion that he could be a figurehead for the currency, making clear that this was the first and last television interview he would do. Having emerged from the shadows, Craig Satoshi Wright now wants to return to them as quickly as possible.

Satoshi or not.... he seems like a bit of a cunt doesn't he?
No. That's just how Australians are. It is normal for them.
Alarming indeed.
My initial feelings here are that Gavin needs a key supporter to move people from core, even if temporary and proven to be false down the road... his prior attempts have not worked. How do you round up all of the old original community members and get them to follow you?... Bring back Satoshi and have him support your plans. I think its an attempt to harness the 'reaction' and pull one over on the bitcoin community to get them to move, I would expect Wright to soon reveal what he's been "working on" with his staff of people that don't want to be bothered and I think it will fall in line with projects that Gavin is pursuing... XT, Classic, "Unlimited" *I'm taking off my tinfoil hat now*

But Gavin is smart enough to realise the current level of 'proof' wouldn't last an hour under scrutiny. Why would he stake his reputation on something so flimsy? Is a 12 hour window enough time time to convince core devs to do this? Wouldn't core devs check the 'proof' for themselves?
A good theory but it doesn't seem like it would be sufficient time to do what you're suggesting.
just skimmed through the thread and couldn't find any proof (or an explanation of what it is.). the article are also lacking citations/sources for the important parts. so, bottom line, the media are just being stupid again, am I right?
Pretty much. Nothing was shown/proved in the BBC article. I'm sure a laymen could easily be fooled but what is more concerning is Gavin Andresen seemingly buying this bullshit. Very alarming.
What really Craig wants
Imagine how much hes gonna win on sign campaign

Lol. I'm sure that account could be sold for a fair bit.
Satoshi or not.... he seems like a bit of a cunt doesn't he?
Yep. I really don't think the real satoshi would behave like this, though it's a good reason why he should likely remain anon. You could be the nicest/smartest guy in the world but people would still hate you for it.

BitconAssociation would lie to publicly and emphatically deny this false fact.
If Craig Wright is truly Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto, we've been living a lie!

Can some1 give me a clear answer: did he sign the blocks with the private key or not?
No valid proof yet.
Signature from his blog is fake
read this https://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/4hf4xj/creator_of_bitcoin_reveals_identity/d2pf70v
The blog post is also incoherent nonsense about procedures to verify a signature meant to spoof non-tech journalists.
Compare to the clear communication of Satoshi emails and white paper, which I have HTMLized here: http://we.lovebitco.in/how-bitcoin-works/bitcoin-paper/ - or any of Satoshi's year of posting on the forum https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/satoshi-3 - biggest bullshit artist that now deserves NOT to get left alone.
Good point. I think anyone claiming to be Satoshi must prove authorship of the paper. Such proof would take precedence over anything involving technical implementation. No proof of authorship, no proof of Satoshi.
hmm personally i dont think hes telling the truth but this quote has me confused "Jon Matonis, a founding director of the Bitcoin Foundation, was given a private proof session by Wright in late March. Matonis deemed the proof conclusive".

Gavin's blog site is also serving up a bad cert, so it's a decent conclusion that the message confirming Wright's identity is a hack:

Looks like this is official, Satoshi is revealed.
Yeah the last week I have read many stories about people revealing the real identity of Satoshi. I do not know how they did it and if it is even true but these people take it very serious. Looks like this is official, Satoshi is revealed.
Yes, it's the second time that Wright has attempted this.
An FT blog article from a month ago about the preparation for this try is here
As Gavin says in his blog, part of that preparation was flying him to London to meet Wright
Arguments about signed messages sure, but Andresen seems to put a lot of weight on the face-to-face
Overall, presumably he thinks that Wright ticked enough of those boxes to convince him....
The FT article says that Matonis has also known this has been coming for a month at least and presumably done, as he says here, his due dilligence, before coming out in favor of Wright's 'proof'

Quote from: from Andresen email (supposedly)
I’d want to see:
A message signed with the same PGP key Satoshi used back in 2010. (…but his computer could have been hacked)
A message signed with keys from early Bitcoin blocks (…but his wallet could have been stolen).
Email or private forum posts he sent to me in 2010 (… but email could have been hacked).
A conversation about technical stuff, ideally via email, so I can see if it feels like the same person I communicated with in 2010.

After spending time with him I am convinced beyond a reasonable doubt: Craig Wright is Satoshi.

Quote from: from Matonis?
“I have been contacted by a private group and I am under a strict NDA [non-disclosure agreement] and press embargo during due diligence phase.”
Can some1 give me a clear answer: did he sign the blocks with the private key or not?
Nothing like that has been made public, the best "confirmations" we got are these:

http://themonetaryfuture.blogspot.pt/2016/05/how-i-met-satoshi.html
I am Satoshi Nakamoto, yes I am a monkey, but you can see how smart I look, so it was me who invented Bitcoin!!!
i wonder if Craig has been recruited by the intelligence community of Five Eyes as their bitcoin disinformation poster boy?
Can some1 give me a clear answer: did he sign the blocks with the private key or not?
The BBC and other news outlets say yes but no evidence of it has been provided.
