he is not satoshi.

all he done was convert an old existing input script into base64..
he did not sign anything nor did he prove anything.

you too can be satoshi (by doing what Craig wright did)

go to
https://blockchain.info/tx/828ef3b079f9c23829c56fe86e85b4a69d9e06e5b54ea597eef5fb3ffef509fe?show_adv=true

copy the input script
3045022100c12a7d54972f26d14cb311339b5122f8c187417dde1e8efb6841f55c34220ae002206 6632c5cd4161efa3a2837764eee9eb84975dd54c2de2865e9752585c53e7cce01

google "hex to base64"
paste in the input script
convert

MEUCIQDBKn1Uly8m0UyzETObUSL4wYdBfd4ejvtoQfVcNCIK4AIgZmMsXNQWHvo6KDd2Tu6euEl13VT C3ihl6XUlhcU+fM4=
and now you have what appears to be a signature that is linked to satoshi funds.. and you never even needed a private key do to it

ask youself did you use a public key or private key. did it involve any sha or ECDSA process at all.. NO

i advise everyone to go to the media, contact section and message them of the fraud that craig wright is.

the only reason he is doing this is because he scammed some people into thinking he owns 1million bitcoins which he doesnt, but that blind ignorance caused those people to give him collateral based on the lie.. and now they are calling in the debt.. (australian government handedhim millions of australian dollars.)

he fled australia to avoid immediate prosecution and is now trying to use the media as proof of ownership. without ever actually proving ownership

so please will everyone convert hex to base64 all the inputs of all satoshi funds to prove we are all satoshi..

craig wright deserves to be locked up because its not just identity fraud. the main thing is the millions of fiat he has scammed out of australian government and private investors using that id fraud, he has no bitcoin funds from 2009.
I know that  I'm satoshi Nakamoto but I never claim it because i prefere anonym mode.
that's what make BTC myterious.

trying to lure the real satoshi maybe?  or to push his big blocks agenda to further centralize bitcoin? ( gavin seems desperate to get a block increase so i wouldnt be surprised if he went as far to get his point accross)

The big blocks agenda will be done because the big exchangers like Coinbase, their twin brother Bitstamp, BTC China, OK Coin, Circle, Xapo, Bitfinex want big blocks Smiley  what are you going to do if the biggest exchangers will fork to "big blocks" BTC? "Smiley

will you not use it anymore. come on! be realistic Smiley

Can you sign a message with a bitcoin address that satoshi owned? I can't really believe that since one would have to check past transactions from that address to prevent being scammed by a wrong signature.

Is it a risk at all?

No, that's not what Craig Wright did.  He didn't actually sign anything.  He just converted an old input to base64 to make it look like a signature.  That's why no one (except the so-called "journalists") is buying it.

So what gavin stated, like that he signed a message that he personally chose for him to sign, was a lie then? If true then Gavin fell deep.

Not too sure about that message, as the "signature" for that one hasn't been made public (nor is it ever likely to be).  Either there was a more elaborate ruse by Wright, or Gavin really wasn't paying attention and dropped the ball.

I suspect Gavin (and Jon) got scammed by a prepared/staged hoax, though it is suspicious that Wright's comments show a strong bias and agenda that aligns with Jon and Gavin. But the failure to publicly publish a meaningful signature for ALL of us to verify to our own satisfaction makes it 99% certain this claim is rubbish.

I thought about that possibility too. Though it would be a big conspiracy theory. Cheesy

Assuming gavin and bitcoin classic should lose credibility then how about letting gavin claim that he found satoshie? He might have been scammes somehow, even though it is hard to imagine for me how this could be done, then let it do by someone openly support classic and then let t all die as a fake. Gavin would lose credibility, he lost already his status as core dev and that would be it...

But I think that's too far fetched. Cheesy

This guy must be crazy to claim he is Satoshi.... Whoever wants to claim that, must be a little bit crazy. Who needs that much attention, when you might be the owner of more than 1 million bitcoins? There are

also some people who would do anything to discredit the creator of this technology and would even plant false information of him in the media to taint his reputation. Then there is the thief's and hackers to

deal with, and loads of scammers... Nah, I would never want to be in Satoshi's shoes, when he eventually gets exposed or identified.   Roll Eyes

I think gavin has been fooled by craig but i doubt how a brillient cryptographer like gavin will be fooled by this signing thing.
What craig has provided as evidence can be like this https://twitter.com/petertoddbtc/status/727161946689159169

Maybe he is trying to force the real Satoshi's hand.
If he take all the plaudits and starts to make important decisions regarding Bitcoin, then maybe the real Satoshi would be forced to show his face to stop him.

Just a theory, but it could be the case.

its possible. Whatever they wanna do with the real satoshi its up to them but the millions he got in his wallet is sure good to acquire.
don't you think the big bank have pt a bounty to find satoshi?  so this craig is up to it.

Inside information anyone?

If indeed he's not Satoshi as the majority of the community as well as the Bitcoin core folks say, why is this guy doing this?
He has nothing to lose. The world thinks he is a liar, only a bigger lie can save his reputation

Echo...

What kind of decision? And furthermore Bitcoin is no dictatorship.
Just because this guy say " Do X!" doesn't mean the community will support that.
Bitcoiners have become extremely cautious over the last years to situations like this one.
Therefore this guy will have no power, even he should be satoshi, what I highly doubt.

Intention is likely to buy bitcoin at a lower price, or make it lower value (as it is already happening). And probably that because a raise is expected afterwards.

Who cares? The BTC myth disappeared and the people who intended to use BTC for "i don't know what reason",  will stay away Smiley

this is ANOTHER scandal which will bring no benefits to BTC but only more attention from authorities and more regulation over exchangers
