Topic: God, I hope I'm right about my Satoishi identification (Read 3458 times)

I like your avatar.It is very wise statement.

Because that is the pronunciation but Satoshi is the preferred spelling?

I don't know Japanese, but there's something I wonder...

Searching Google for “satoshi -nakamoto -bitcoin” (so, other people named Satoshi) gives 19 million results, while “satoishi -nakamoto -bitcoin” gives 417 thousand.

Searching on Wikipedia, there's a list of people named Satoshi, but the Satoishi page is non-existent.

So, if “Satoishi” is the accepted anglicized version, why is it much less frequent?

Okay I give up here.Maybe Kim will come on and tell you himself.When he reveals himself you can give me my prize then and I tell you about where the REAL aliens are.

Sorry, about that. Satoishi is the normal Japanese spelling of the name (Anglicized), so mentally I always spell it this way.

The mispelling of the name, by the way, is evidence that Satoshi is not actually Japanese, but is a Westerner masquerading as a Japanese (Mark Karpeles anyone?).

Is there any reason why you call him “Satoishi” instead of “Satoshi”?

Since a lot of readers seem either unwilling or unable to use the search function I will cross link the relevant posts.

My original post from October 24, 2011, 11:27:48 PM fingering Robert Hettinga as Satoishi based on forum posts:

A followup post in 2013 dealing with the Szabo issue:

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/satoishi-is-szabo-hettinga-chaum-358790

In 2013, an analysis of the Bitcoin paper suggested it was written by Nick Szabo. I too had noticed that the forum posts and bitcoin paper seem to have been written by different people, but possibly been a collaboration. Since Nick Szabo and Robert Hettinga knew each other very well and were good friends, this introduces the possibility that Bitcoin was a collaboration between the two, with David Chaum doing the coding.

However, my recent thinking is that Szabo cannot have written the paper, despite the Slashdot analysis. The reason for this is that the paper uses Latex, but in a highly non-standard way that appears converted from MS Word, whereas the few times Szabo has published a paper, it uses standard Latex formatting. Also, Szabo's papers feature high-quality, academically informed references. The references in the 2008 Bitcoin paper are the work of an amateur. The overall layout and style of the graphics and objects differ from Szabo's style and tendencies. Therefore, I think my original conclusion still stands: Hettinga wrote both the forum posts and the paper.

I promise you it is Kim.He told me.Where is my prize?

I have a new identity proposal, although its not as cool as the idea Satoshi is a time traveling alien AI.  A group of hackers compromise some of Satoshi's old accounts then immediately go after Mazacoin's old website having acquired old account info belonging to Anonymous Pirate.  Therefore, I postulate that Anonymous Pirate and Satoshi are the same person.  https://mazacoin.org/mazacoin-org-returns-after-compromise/

Satoshi died for our FIAT sins.

A proper "I told ya so" post deserves a link to the original...it'll make you look much cooler when others stumble upon this thread!

Together with Szabo and Chaum as suggested in this Dec 2013 post? https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/satoishi-is-szabo-hettinga-chaum-358790

This whole thread is AWESOME! I really needed this good laugh! Thanks, guys.

I guess that I have to read all the Satoshi identification stories, it looks like fun!

KDC would probably not remain silent about creating BTC. He's proudly created other revolutionary software out in the open.

Also, he wouldn't have used MSVC to create it.

My vote is for Elon Musk, but really I couldn't give 2 flying fucks.

starts a thread about his theory who satoshi is.
don't even tell his theory (people should ask curious)
-> someone needs attention

I told you who he was.When do I get my prize?

The alien theory i like it, I can understand that if you had millions of dollar you want to be private because there will be lot of people trying to steal your wealth but you would not be that afraid that you won't even give a comment on internet.   

I agree. People who say that satashi is god or some kind of profit are, IMO crazy and give bitcoin a bad name.

satoshi findings wont do anyting to price


or shouldnt

You'll never find Satoshi, he went back to his home planet.  He is spending his BTCs, you just can't see it because the blockchains can't synch over intergalactic distances yet. 

Whoever it actually turns out to be, it's going to be an anticlimax.  Nothing can live up to the hype now.
