Topic: I will go out on a limb and say it. Dorian S Nakamoto is the real Satoshi. - page 2. (Read 2317 times)

Refreshingly clear understanding of how the mind works independently of a person's speaking or writing level in a particular language. Nice to see

Would the real Slim Shady please stand up now?

I have the same feeling, this guy may be the real Satoshi Nakamoto. Everyone here says "look at the way he writes, this guy is not smart" but in the interview he seems to control very well his English and he seems to be smart.

I also think that people don't understand you don't necessarily have to be completely competent in terms of conversational skills in a language to write or read on a level above them. It's a difficult concept to get your head around, but it's entirely possible for an individual to achieve a pH.D in english-speaking environment and still have a heavily accented, disjointed conversational language skills.

The background, ideas, and personality profile really does match what we know of 'satoshi' back then. People have a vested interest in just being plain flat out 'nonononolalalalala' when it comes to exposing one of 'their own', but in this case, the picture isn't all that much of a wild goose chase.

His background profile, political leaning, and general attitude is pretty much how many people thought satoshi would be - intelligent but emotionally stunted, insecure and secretive, innovative but lacking interpersonal manners, and craving some smug recognition with a slight attitude and chip on his shoulder. He may be 64, but behaves and has an attitude of someone who has been stuck in age of 29.

Nothing is definitive, but what we know so far shows that there are more than a few indicators which support the claim that he is THE REAL satoshi.

Discuss with something other than 'fuckfuckfucknoway'

you are right dorian nakamoto is the real satoshi... its wrote on his birth certificate

but also the real bitcoin creator is not dorian. satoshi nakamoto is not wrote on the bitcoin inventors birth certificate

I am not going to add a poll, because most people here have a strong vested interest/confirmation bias that Dorian S Nakamoto is not the real Satoshi Nakamoto.

But ya know what. He is.

He worked on Bitcoin as part of some project with funding from above that he is not allowed to talk about it. He used his birth name in the white paper because like any creative talent, part of him craves praise and recognition for his work. The female journalist caught of him off guard and he admitted to it, since then he has had time to get his head together, remind himself of the NDA agreement he signed and the consequences of him breaking it, and pulled on his game face and easily shrugged off further suggestions that he is the creator of Bitcoin as misunderstandings.

The discrepancies between Satoshi Nakamoto's high level literary skills and the disjointed English contained in Dorian S Nakamoto's personal Emails etc, means nothing. High grade fluent authoring capabilities and a genius level understanding level of mathematics generally do not go hand in hand. It was a large team that worked on Bitcoin. It had to be, and over many many years. A project member more adept at written communication would have handled that side of things.

Dorian Prentice Satoshi Nakamoto, is the creator of Bitcoin. And it was part of a funded long term project to which he signed an NDA and is therefore bound not to ever be able to publicly acknowledge his part in it.

The truth has a certain chime to it and regardless of the smoke n mirrors that have went up around this scene, this sounds like the chiming of truth to me. He is the real deal but won't ever publicly admit it.....except when he is caught off-guard.
