Topic: First impressions on Craig Wright ( Satoshi Nakamoto ? ) - page 2. (Read 400 times)

The first time I've heard about Craig Wright, I started to feel suspicious about his actions. I already noticed that there's something wrong with his claims. He couldn't even provide proof and evidence that he's the real Satoshi which is necessary. As we all know, most of us always look for concrete evidence since there are already lots of people who are claiming to be Satoshi. Obvious lies have existed which is disappointing about Craig even his coin was suspicious for most people at that time.

As someone once said, "I'm open minded, but show me some real evidence!" If you base your evidence on YouTube videos and news headlines, it is no wonder you have ended up with the wrong conclusions.


Who said his education and Ph.D. were fake? People have said that there is indications his doctorate is plagiarism, but that is not the same thing. I think you need to read more carefully.

I won't go into much details but i have to admit that you seem to be one of his cult followers and believers, and you need to detox asap.
CSW is nothing like Satoshi Nakamoto, CSW is not a nerd but he is a big liar and ex-farmer who probably stole money from other.
Anyone can have patents and bunch of paper that proves nothing, and btw I know some killers and biggest frauds also finished universities and had Phds.
BSV is just a worthless shitcoin, and it will always be just that.

For the record I do not own any BSV, or BCH... and I have invested in Bitcoin. Whether Craig Wright is Satoshi Nakamoto or not makes no difference to me, I'm mostly invested into Altcoins like Terra, Solana, Matic, Helium, Ethereum and a few others. What I was saying is that based on what I've seen and heard on YouTube ( including testimonials from very credible people in reliable news channels, not "opinion" fanboy channels ) I found Craig Wright to be a likely candidate.

P.S. If his education and Phds are all fake, those BBC journalists were certainly fooled, as they referenced them many times...

From the initial post, you did not seem like one of those trolls who have frequented this forum since the beginning trying to make scammers look legit. There were those who did it for Roger Ver, There are those who do it for CSW. I almost felt like you were genuinely bamboozled by his bullshit coz you have to admit that if you are just someone sincere, really hoping to know Satoshi, you'd fall for his tactics.

Yet, now that you quote the lawsuit, I am pretty sure you are just another troll. Another comment giving Roger importance only means that you are just intentionally ignorant.

The lawsuit was from the estate of Ira Kleiman seeking part of the one million BTC that CSW wrongly claimed he has access to. There are records on the internet that the addresses this idiot has claimed as his own (in papers filed in court), have publically sent "signed" messages saying that he is a fraud. There are no BTC that this scum controls. The community has been challenging him to sign a message for years now but he keeps coming up with excuses and diversion tactics to keep people like you entertained who will believe anything due to your own greed.

There are a lot of like you in the crypto world. Those who hold these shitcoins and very intensely want it to be true because it'd mean that you'd all become millionaires. There are those thousands of retail idiots who kept buying the XRP tokens being printed in the billions and now hope that it becomes legit, because that'd mean they'd get rich.

There is no other reason for your beliefs except your greed.

If you did even a wee-bit of actual research, went into details of signed messages and looked at the way CSW resorts to outright lies (well even Vitalik called him a scammer), you'd realize that he is just a slick, scammy narcissist who enjoys all this attention. This narcissist can never be Satoshi. If you read even a word of the man himself on the forum, you'd instantly recognize the very down-to-earth and humble style that had zero hints of self-aggrandizement, which is something that faketoshi loves to do.

Just learn to read and make decisions for yourself. it is still not late to make actual money in crypto with honest dev work and getting onto new projects that launch everyday. Bitcoin is at the foundation of them all. If you want to earn crypto, then actually study and be sincere about the technology and stop batting for people who have repeatedly proven themselves to be scamsters. Think for yourself and stop fooling yourself. Sell that BSV shit if you hold any and utilize your time to find good projects and teams in this bear market.

I don't often check the prices of these fakecoins, but seeing BSV hit a new all time low of 0.0025 BTC and BCash not far off a new all time low at 0.009 BTC does make me chuckle a bit. Dumping that trash at almost 0.2 BTC each was a great decision, even more so as time goes on. I do feel for all the newbies who have fallen victim to these scams, though.

Don't forget that this doctorate was plagiarized as well, including from a source which discusses the territorial behavior of birds: https://medium.com/@paintedfrog/craig-wright-plagiarized-significant-portions-of-his-phd-thesis-and-tried-to-hide-it-80cd8f01459

Yes, exactly this. Show us a single piece of real evidence that CSW is Satoshi. No? Didn't think so.

The lawsuit had nothing to do with whether or not he was Satoshi, and he was ordered to pay $100 million to the Kleiman estate.

His methods of doing this are public and have been shown to be fake.

I don't know which places you've been going but from what I have seen so far everyone knows for a fact that Craig Wright is a scammer. The handful of people who say otherwise in his support know this fact better than everyone else, they just have some benefit in publicly saying otherwise.

The most obvious way of knowing if someone is an identity fraudster is to see if they have ever proved any of their claims which CW has never provided any proof whatsoever.

Another easy way to knowing this and whether the shitcoin called BSV has anything to say is to see what it stands for. When Satoshi created bitcoin the goal was obviously decentralization and when the scammer got behind the shitcoin called BSV the goal was obviously centralization and they also clearly made this claim that people shouldn't even be running full nodes and full nodes should be run by centralized authorities that control the network.
In other words BSV fundamental principles are the exact opposite of what Satoshi Nakamoto invented back in 2008.

The fact that you are even asking such a question here shows that you haven't done any research into what Bitcoin is and have been hanging out in some sort of altcoin bag holder echo chamber.

Nope. That isn't how patents work.  If someone publishes an invention that publication becomes prior art and is an absolute bar to patentability, after a year even the inventors own publications count as prior art.

So no, Satoshi themselves couldn't even do this.

But your misunderstanding is one of that faketoshi fraudsters like Wright like to exploit.

Not the source code, I meant the blockchain technology.

Yes, Satoshi distributed the wallet software with 'Copyright (c) 2009 Satoshi Nakamoto' under the MIT/X11 Software License.

this guy is the biggest disaster and shame for the cryptocurrency market, he is constantly embarrassing the whole community with his claims that he is the real satoshi nakamoto and when people ask him to prove the guy he just can't, the price of bitcoin has gone up a lot for the $69000 why doesn't he spend all satoshi bitcoins? he doesn't spend because he can't access bitcoins. he is a fraud and a joke to the whole community.

10 year after his disappearance? Nah man. Its not how it works. You can't patent open source code that was always open source and is being under development for last 10 years without  "he/she/they". There is nothing "he/she/they" can do after showing up. No one can. Thats what makes BTC strong.

sorry but YOU are basing it on internet rumours.
everyone else has read court documents, contacted the universities, his ex employers. and looked at the paper source facts. not the media attention clickbait CSW and his friends self created

seems you are now stuck in your own bubble of trying to find confirmation bias. where you only want to hear things that confirm your (false) opinion you have found yourself having.

if you were truly open minded. read the actual court documents not the media spin wrote by craigs friends.
contact craigs university and realise he didnt earn his Dr title at/pre-the millennium, but after 2016 by paying a scholar to ghost write his coursework for him.

if you truly had a open mind you will take the hints we are giving you and you would follow them up, if you remain with confirmation bias you will find yourself stuck amongst the liars and scammy people


well atleast you recognise they are talking about altcoins. where by craig has BSV.
so kudos for you for atleast admitting that craigs coin is an altcoin and not bitcoin...
.. now dont try and back track. you admitted it, so stick with that admission and accept that deep down you know craig is an altcoiner trying to play main coiner

Anonymity remains the property of satoshi I think, regardless of what you say with the evidence presented as long as it has not been proven true forever will only be speculation because it cannot be proven for real and it is only an analysis of people's judgments.
actually i don't understand why people want to know who satoshi really is. So when they find out what they want to do? will it affect bitcoin again? actually it is enough for him to be anonymized, that is enough for him and we only need to know his name and his extraordinary creation, not to the real person

If someone proved that he/she/they is/are Satoshi, he/she/they could patent the blockchain technology and how we use it.

It's rare seeing someone openly support the clown called 'Craig Wright' and it's even rarer to see someone think that he is 'Satoshi Nakamoto'. Anyone with a half-decent brain knows that he is just lying for the sake of attention.

Shroud of uncertainty over BTC because of this attention seeking fool? This seriously cracked me up.

If you actually buy his crap, you need to get your head checked asap. Also, history has already proven that BTC is way ahead of all other cryptocurrencies and this won't change in the future either.

There's another guy... Roger Ver "the Bitcoin Jesus", who claims that Bitcoin Cash is the real deal because it can actually be used for payments. So it seems both Bitcoin SV and Bitcoin Cash are more efficient for electronic payments than BTC. Then there is Litecoin, Digibyte, Nano, and a dozen other cryptos that can be used as forms of payment, yet BTC remains at the top.

The real Satoshi haven seen the success of his works will never attempt to be draging issues and seeking attention without a proper technical proof. I understand Craig Wright has a lot of disciples who are now rekt for buying BSV instead of investing in BTC. Today, I don't expect his disciples to still be following him after heavily misleding them.  A patriot will never seek to destroy the good way.

Wow. Some of the comments here! It seems some of the nay sayers are mostly basing their views on gossip and internet rumors. I'm open minded, but show me some real evidence ! And are you even aware that Craig Wright just won a civil lawsuit against him regarding the creation of Bitcoin ? ( they wanted to take away a big chunk of the early mined Bitcoins, which only Satoshi Nakamoto would have had access to ) Also, moving coins is not the only way to prove you have access to the private keys, there are other ways, and CW has already done this privately in front of a few selected individuals. You need to find the Kitco report on it ( keywords "Kitco News Satoshi Nakamoto")I would share the direct link here but last time I did that my post got removed by moderators.

The irony is that Craig Wright has claimed so many things but failed to prove any single of his claim. He is not satoshi but faketoshi. IMO its us who made such people popular by giving them so much importance. If he is real satoshi he can prove it by moving bitcoin sitting in satoshis wallet for decade.

The great thing about bitcoin is that it doesn't matter if Santa, the NSA, Genghis Khan, or whoever is its founder.
It was open sourced, open licenced, and decentralised.
Even Satoshi couldn't change that at this point.
