RUM AND CARROTS: A PIRATE LIFE FOR ME

Have you even read anything on this page? He has provided no proof, ergo he is not Satoshi.

Nope, and I don't really care to either. Frankly it's not that critically important to me. While I've met the other core developers, it doesn't matter to me who Satoshi really is. If it's this guy, then fine, if it's another scam- just another day in bitcoin land.

It would be nice to know definitively, but it's not critical to me. Hence I decided to ignore the news and not do anything vis-a-vis the market. If anything it's more PR for bitcoin. It's good to stay in the news.

It would be appreciate if someone could edit that page and remove the bullshit.

Yeah I thought to sell, but then I declined. It's weird to know who he is, and I'm sure people are a touch nervous about him having 1 million bitcoin, but at the same time- before an unknown person had all those bitcoin. So at least we know who he is.

The market cares to the tune of $12 (circa $50mn) as of the moment. I am thinking of buying the dip here.

So at least we know who he is. And he has a pretty clear interest in helping bitcoin thrive, so, maybe it's better this way. At least we no longer need to deal with media reports about a "secret unknown hacker". On the other side, it might not be nice to have a public face of bitcoin. That said, other coins like litecoin or etherium do just fine with everyone knowing who started them. Maybe Satoshi can bring some balance to the politics of bitcoin.

Is this really true guys???

The whole story will be release soon. The signatures have already been verified by Gavin and GQ btw.

But, why is there no proof on the blockchain? Satoshi always made a point of providing proofs in the ledger....why wouldn't that have been done now or even just prior to this event?

LOL , Wright has gone and edited the Satoshi Wiki page,

"Satoshi Nakamoto is the pseudonym used by the Australian computer scientist Craig Steven Wright,[1] who invented bitcoin "

This should be done right away (at least temporarily). This should be Gavin's last strike as he has started doing more harm than good (once the situation resolves).

Post the signatures here or go away (whoever is behind this account).

How can you be 100% sure? I agree genesis block signature should be used for proof, though.

Because people who I can consider sheep, including anyone who believed this even for a second, can't tell the difference between cryptographic proof and a random public TX signature (encoded in base64) (and thus get fooled easily). Craig has not provided something such as a signed message (e.g. required for recovering an account on the forum).

As "Nice Try" mentioned above, this is 100% fake. This sort of irresponsible "journalism" is just embarrassing... I mean, they were already fooled once by Wright's obvious fakery.

Disappointed in Gavin......again.

Putting tin foil on, it could be an attempt to flush out the real Satoshi.

I agree regarding Gavin.
If this turns again out to be another hoax and failed attempt by Wright, Gavin should lose his commit access what Peter Todd already wrote via twitter.

If @gavinandresen is wrong, I think his commit access should be revoked for being untrustworthy and/or incompetent:

I think this should have been done a long time ago.

Craig Wright is trying to stage himself as Satoshi, that he and his sockpuppets have done some great work to be revealed in future. Then he joins Gavin on his shitcoin blockchain and they start to dump their own initial investments after which the project will be abandoned.

There are two possibilities:

Wright is Satoshi and Gavin is sincere.
Wright isn't Satoshi and Gavin is a part of a conspiracy.

Anyhow, the price is going down. Whoever was behind this idea, well played. You can easily fool the sheep of the community. The "proof" currently provided, is no proof at all.

If Craig isn't Satoshi then Satoshi could just start spending his $450 million and leave Craig with the tax bill ...
