That's just the state of the media nowadays, truth no longer seems to be their priority if it ever was. The only way anyone is going to believe a Satoshi claim is if that person moves some coins simple as that really. This dude is getting more attention then he probably deserves.

Now watch him move some coins and I'll have to come back and edit this post Cheesy

Well even this wouldn't necessarily prove it was Satoshi, only that the person controlled Satoshi's coins. To me if the real Satoshi wanted to come back in the spotlight, this is what he should have done on day 1, not months later after several botched attempts at proving he is who he claims to be.

If and when these coins are ever moved, the more time and false attempts that occur in-between, the less likely the person who ultimately moves them is the real Satoshi.

HODLing is an art, not just a word...

this has always been like this about the news. they will always say the "hottest" thing and they twist their words so they are never saying "clearly" he is satoshi and never say he is not they post a hot subject then in the context there is no clear information and just confusion.

It'll be funny if Craig posts proof and they fuck up the second time. I start liking him more and more, he's really good at playing everyone. Precisely as Satoshi should be

What is the outcome ? Does playing people around gets you reputation or does it raises doubts on one's credibility .IMO,such people are bad for bitcoin.What can they provide to the community ? Don't you think bitcoin has bigger problems to be worried about rather than arguing over who's the creator ? The fact that you're liking him for something he is not shows your intelligence level,sir.

The google searches for Bitcoin went up 200% this week, it's direct benefit to the community whoever this Craig is

you don't seem to like puzzles, I used to be like you. Bitcoin is a big joke on this world, its creator should be a big joker of personality. Craig Wright fits this description.

i hope this doesn't turn out to be a bad thing when and if it is proven that CW is just the biggest lier of the year.

Well, it's the media! Their meaning is to manipulate opinion. About this Satoshi person we do not know if he (they) do not want to personalize themselves.

the whole thing was excellent click bait

there has been a million threads here and countless blogs

newspaper after they sold out.

Media speculations sell the newspapers. Why r u surprised? They would say Vladimir Putin s Satoshi if that would help them sell news/clicks.

This is what happens when some media outlets want to have the hottest news before their competitors. The BBC, the Economist and GQ rushed to publish breaking news on a matter they simply can't fully understand and the Craig Wright fake story blew up spectacularly in their faces. So now that they realized they had written a load of crap BBC are trying to do damage control to their own reputation Wink

Just goes to show how very little fact checking the media actually does. I doubt anyone at the bbc has any idea about bitcoin..

So when BBC become expert for Bitcoin?

I thought BBC meant Gavin was the expert... Gavin now actually join others and agree that Craig will need to produce convincing evidence by moving Satoshi's coins or sign the key with signAture.... not just any signIture.

first they release the news that Craig Wright is Satoshi without checking the facts first and asking for some kind of proof before releasing the news.

Quote

At the meeting with the BBC, Mr Wright digitally signed messages using cryptographic keys created during the early days of Bitcoin's development.

and now they publish this news that it was a mistake to back him up

and we are still waiting for that extraordinary proof!

the only answer that suits this situation Cheesy

We'd like to thank #Satoshi hoaxer Dr Craig Wright for showing how bankrupt the fact-checking standards are at the BBC, LRB & Economist.

The whole thing just weirds me out, the guy, the suit, gavin, bbc, etc etc. Maybe this was the intention to keep that price down because of the halving.

One would have to think that Satoshi would have anticipated this particular eventuality, that is, having to demonstrate control of genesis block related addresses to verify his identity. That Mr. Wright is unable to do this bode poorly for his claim. Surely as the creator of the protocol, he would have prepared for this?

Since the real Satoshi didn't stand up and showed the proof about the legitimacy. We can only guess why he didn't stand up this time to show the world Craig Wright is a big lier. Is the big publicity something that withhold him or will there be other things that count.

eh no. unlike the previous article where they outright said that wright is satoshi, on this one they're pretty much taking a neutral stance. it's more of a about gavin's decision really.

Its not exactly a neutral stance ,they're clearly opposing he is not.Since the signatures failed to verify,what conclusion can one possibly make ? Gavin did support Craig's first action,he won't be backing out later denying the facts.I feel it is a set up,now people are realizing it,they just want to close the drama.
