I was just reading the article on Cointelegraph and was going to post about it but since you made one ... I'm the only one who don't see this "signed" message on the picture ?
Cointelegraph is known for promoting scams and stuff so I wouldn't trust them honestly , they probably just want to get more traffic .

Did not know about satoshi being in this forum! it is good to be able to read him here.
As for the cointelegraph article, I agree it is more likely bullshit.

That's a very cheap move by CT team indeed, classic fabrication of 'news' when you got nothing else to write about.
They might not have fabricated it but it's more than likely just another hoax from a spoofed email which is fairly easy to do. If CoinTelegraph would have written it they probably would have at least proofread the e-mail.

Coitelegraph just wants some attention and leadership in the news industry. They are a goddamn hoaxers
This got my attention:
"...But it could also be a form of retaliation, due to recent significant changes in the staff of CoinTelegraph." (from the quoted CT article).
Not sure what this means, but it kind of suggest they might have replaced the previous team with cheaper and less competent staff.

Do you want to lose readers and ruin your reputation? Because this is how you start.

The only thing that's missing in that email is: "ps. I've lost all my private keys, plz send donations to: ..."

web version here: http://www.bitcoinfuturesguide.com/bitcoin-blog/disgraceful-cointelegraph-publishes-nonsense-clickbait-story-about-receiving-e-mail-from-satoshi-nakamoto
What an absolutely disgraceful article from CoinTelegraph today. The headline: "Satoshi Nakamoto Writes To CoinTelegraph About The Nobel Prize": http://cointelegraph.com/news/115901/satoshi-nakamoto-writes-to-cointelegraph-about-the-nobel-prize
This is nothing but worthless clickbait. No proof that it is Satoshi is provided, and an absurd claim that he is working on Ethereum is included, which likely points to a motive to pump Ether. The article claims that it is "signed" by Satoshi:
An interview with Vitalik from Ethereum is also in the article, so maybe you want to read it for that. But again, no PGP key or any evidence that it is Satoshi is presented, which makes the headline absolute BS.
The author basically could have told his friend to send him an e-mail claiming to be Satoshi and published an article about it and then shilling Ether. This is really a bizarre article.
Don't trust Cointelgraph with such shameless clickbait.
