If Craig's the one, he has to pay a huge amount of taxes and a big fine.
He'll def need to use his bitcoin stash to pay.
Let's see how this ends, the coins of satoshi should be on the move in the near future.

Yes, those coins will tell all. If we never see them moving then, he lies.
But hes got all the motivation in the world to sell them and pay the Aussie government.

the only concern i have is that the myth of Satoshi is gone. the market now knows that one man has control of a lot of bitcoin. he says he won't do it, but he could dump the price. makes people nervous. why is ETH rising?

I think that Gavin should be put through the wringer if he really is backing this bullshit story (just shows how ridiculous he has become in order to try and wrest control over the project).

If that is true, let him provide evidence.

Craig Wright said that he's not interested in money, but wasn't he trying to use his supposed bitcoin holdings as leverage for some investment purpose late last year?

Exactly.

Quote from: BitUsher on May 02, 2016, 04:53:01 AM

But he claims to still have access to the coins but doesn't want to move them out of a trust. Wright appears to trying to pull a con where he makes the world believe he is in possession of 1 million btc locked in a "trust" so he can get respect and investments from people who assume he is insanely wealthy.

The ridiculous thing is that exchanges move their reserves all the time without any problems for auditing and security purposes , because there are practically an infinite amount of public addresses to use, this can be done securely without risk, and doesn't effect the legal ownership he claims to be so concerned about.

It seems quite fake. No valid proofs, and BBC isn't knowledgeable so... Roll Eyes

It shows BBC does not understand blockchain. Satoshi can easily verify who he is by showing a signature from an old address in public: 'hey, it is me, Satoshi'. But he does not show that. He just wants attention.

Why the fuck is it on television, everywhere I see this.
Why tell something when there is not any proof yet?

Although bitcoin will get more famous because of this..

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.

I'm not surprised by journalists being fooled , but shame on Gavin for going along with this shit show to further his agenda.

"confirmation come from member of community, manager and bitcoin developer"...

If he really is Satoshi, it was a very bad move to come out -- will regret?
Still not convinced at all until I see a signed message posted.

Oh wow it's getting better.
GA believes Craig Wright is Satoshi and met him a few weeks ago in London.

http://gavinandresen.ninja/satoshi

And in a few days they both will make an announcement: BIGGER BLOCKS NOW! Roll Eyes

I smell another agenda here!

Gavin just came back from China and is convinced that Paul Vernon is not a thief. Further, Gavin is on record in stating that BFL was a victim of unforeseen circumstances and the team should be given a second chance.

Strange how hard people can fuck with their good image. Gavin now gives everything for his country as it seems...

Fascinating indeed, if he has those keys he was involved with bitcoin's inception, although he doesn't have to prove anything to anyone if he doesn't want to...
