hee-ho.
I thought the first 50BTC are unspendable? just move coins from the address 1A1zP1eP5QGefi2DMPTfTL5SLmv7DivfNa instead. coins from an early block wouldn't prove much because there's no guarantee that the address belongs to satoshi.

we will see him seriously only if he could move those coins from genesis block. If even he can move 1 satoshi from it that will be enough proof i think. But all those signed message magic trick has already been revealed.

What doesn't kill you only makes you sicker!
Or we could all just hold our horses and wait for the transfer.

If there's no transfer or the transfer isn't from an account that we can be certain Satoshi is in control of, then we can just let all this drama pass.

Of course this doesn't prove he IS Satoshi but from where I'm sitting, it's the next best thing < insert speculation of bought/sold keys, hacked email accounts, compromised private keys >

It won't be the genesis block and I doubt it will be the address from block 9, if he moves anything it will be a low number block miner which he bought the keys for and paid a lot of money to do so.

So he just scams BBC and maybe other news stations to display the cheap show where he will prove nothing....

Yes Craig, please don't hesitate to move the genesis coins into the address mentioned on my profile. Thanks!

This is soooooo fishy..... Meaning, he can just move them in the safety of his home. We will all know it happened.
Does a person with so many Bitcoin really need the money BBC would give for this .. "show"?


On the other hand, yet another little storm around Bitcoin, which can only make it even more popular  Grin

I really hope he's lying, because I see nothing good in this...
