I wonder if he reveals himself, would that affect bitcoin value? Tongue

I believe it will and badly. because most people believes that satoshi owns a very large amount of bitcoin. imagine what satoshi can do with that many bitcoins.
all the more reason why he should stay anonymous if he's still alive and still want bitcoin to prosper.

If Satoshi is smart enough to remain anonymous, create bitcoin etc. I would doubt having a large amount of bitcoin would have any negative impact.

Every random month someone claims to be Satoshi now.We should really not bother articles like this anymore,its part of the bitcoin network,get used to it.Also the above article is coming from the same twats who said bitcoin was related to ISIS.Ignore them.

I am also curious if who is the real Satoshi Nakamoto. I find your post funny, but i read several people who are said to be Satoshi but they are not.Some say he is from Australia, a professor etc. If he really is Satoshi, he changed the internet payment systems. Genius!

i will never understand why all those things happens. i mean that if Mr. S.N. want to reveal himself he dont need to announce it, just do it, by pgp key, that's all.
Let me bet again, this is just another false information, and let be bet again, is not the last one that we will read.

PGP is fail, moving the funds is the only thing that would matter

Ok, Let's consider the most extreme conspiracy theory out there... Someone or a group of people, murdered him and they have his PGP key. They can easily manipulate

the markets to suit their needs, if they send out a signed message.. BUT they are not doing it. That means, nobody has his private key or his PGP key, if they got rid of him. I

think a group of people developed this and they collectively decided to keep it a secret, when Gavin ran to the NSA. Great plot for a movie.. right?

a pgp key is meaningless.. if someone did get hold of his system to get the keys. the most radical thing to do is shift the 2009 stash.. not sign a message.
if your going to murder someone its better to go for their stash, rather then trying to send a message.

moving the coins would cause ALOT more economic speculation then a signed message

even if someone comes forward in the future with a legit signed message, some people can argue that satoshi's PC might be hacked. at this point not even the real satoshi will be able to prove that they are indeed satoshi without a single doubt. however they can get more credibility by continuing satoshi's own work (developing bitcoin).

People would be too paranoid when it comes to that case. Basically, the only evidence that we have as to who satoshi might be is a PGP key, Bitcoin Addresses and an email account or two (these are irrelevant as can be hacked/already are). If someone comes around and signs with either the PGP key or some of the addresses, then they most likely are satoshi.

satoshi is not messiah to come back and reveal himself to the work at the times of peril lol

True. He would be at risk if he revealed himself.

ah great another one of these topics about satoshi.

i don't get what is it that people don't get about the anonymity part, the whole purpose of choosing this name and not a real name and staying away is to stay anonymous for whatever reason and it is going to continue being anonymous.

Craig Wright is a flamboyant attention-seeker, and as such his personality is the precise, diametrical opposite of everything we know about Satoshi. That alone disqualifies him. Notice how he keeps teasing everyone with all these media rumors, when a simple signature would be worth infinitely more towards substantiating this claim.

His claims are garbage. Garbage.

In the grand scheme of things, does it really matter who he or she is?

Most of the people think that when someone sign a message from the PGP key (mentioned that belongs to satoshi) does not prove the identity, it only proves that the person (it could be also a hacker) who signs this message has only access to the private key but does not prove the identity. P.S OP I don't think that satoshi is going to reveal himself this weekend.

Nobody signed anything from Satoshis PGP key. The keys used by Craig were backdated.

The usual stuff... If you are Satoshi, sign a message or GTFO Cheesy

Exactly. No need to turn to the media or anyone until one does so.

even if someone comes forward in the future with a legit signed message, some people can argue that satoshi's PC might be hacked. at this point not even the real satoshi will be able to prove that they are indeed satoshi without a single doubt. however they can get more credibility by continuing satoshi's own work (developing bitcoin).

like always some fake news to make a buzz nothin else. i don"t know why satoshi don't show him self but he was hidden so much time it is not now that will show us his true identity. So stop making fake news.

He could also sign message from address received the 50 BTC in first block, unless he get some funny story why he dont have the private keys anymore, aka Craig Wright style. Its much less likely the private keys from first Satoshi wallet could be stollen - becaue there is so huge financial incentive to sell/spend so many Bitcoins from this first Satoshi wallet - the Bitcoins would move right after the Satoshi wallet was stollen!
