What is next ? Tomorrow will be El Chapo who will say that he personally met Nakamoto and he had the idea to make Bitcoin ROFL. This kind of stories will continue to appear everyday without any real sources to verify what they say.
The idea behind all  these claims is to get the name recognition so that you will get press time. No one talked about Pablo Escobar and his family until they came up with his theory and this is not the first time i am hearing this from the Escobar family. I wont be surprised if someone is funding all these profiles to make these claims so that when there is a genuine claim from the real Satoshi you will ignore him as well  Grin.
Youre absolutely right and the samething happened with CSW but it really sad and ridiculous that claiming to be the real Satoshi is the man strategy people used these days to get popular, gaining attention and been in the headlines pages. I hope th newbies wont take this serious because there are some who still fall for CSW lies.

The brother of Yasutaka Nakamoto was an engineer and these boys seem to be closely protected by the CIA. Nakamoto brothers lives in USA and have some of their records deleted for their own safety. Yasutaka is a master of privacy and he could be master of many more things. This may be another conspiracy but it has some dots to connect.

They thought they found him but I think this is more of a conspiracy theory. We don't know their real motives why they are saying this kind of story to the public. If the real Satoshi wants public life, he should have done that a long time ago. There is a reason why up until now, only conspiracy theories and more speculations are surrounding regarding the true identity of Satoshi. Let him stay to be one of the mysteries of crypto. Just be grateful that he introduced bitcoin to the humanity.

How can this be? I mean how people come up with this idea? this is ridiculous. the funniest theory I've ever heard about Bitcoin. This is hilarious to Craigh Wright's claims. How can they link the Drug king to Satoshi Nakamoto? they are two different pages. I think people need to think about their claim before posting it in social media to avoid humiliation from the netizens.

The business thing I guess? Many people stole identity or perhaps, claims identity especially of someone great that stays anonymous. To make it simple, the person decided to not disclose himself, and what we should do is to respect his decision not to make it as a tool to make people confused. They might just end up becoming like Craig Wright, instead of becoming Satoshi, his reputation was destroyed. He should have learned his lessons, and might as well for persons like him to avoid doing the same thing.

https://news.bitcoin.com/pablo-escobars-descendants-claim-to-have-known-satoshi-nakamoto/

"Cointelegraph (CT) reporter Greg Thomson who spoke with a family friend called Olof K. Gustaffson, CEO of Escobar Inc., a company with ties to Pablo Escobar’s descendants. Gustaffson tells Thomson that they believe Bitcoin’s creator is a person named Yasutaka Nakamoto"



Who will or which will be a big name that will claim something about where,who and which is Bitcoin Creator?in past there are claims about the real Satoshi Nakamoto,now here we are the Name of the creator is in question.

Of the many theories circulating about the identity of Satoshi Nakamoto, the theory that Satoshi Nakamoto was involved with Pablo Escobar.
Then Gustaffson believed a bitcoin creator named Yasutaka Nakamoto was a theory that didn't make sense, 100% I didn't believe that theory.
Agree.

Besides, in my opinion Satoshi Nakamoto is a group or organization, it's too impossible for projects as large as bitcoin to be handled by
individuals.

Good theory too, most of us think it's just a person and that is the reason why some people are finding ways to discover the real identity of Satoshi Nakamoto as a person. As bitcoin is getting more popular, some people will be more interested to find the truth, but I would bet that they will never find the  truth.

How many of this kind of thread will comes out time after time?why not stop pointing anything about the Bitcoin Creator instead let the person/s rest and keep the privacy?

He/They Chooses to keep the silence so why need to put names always just to be talk of the town?

This people are not new to our society and they are just gaining popularity for their own cause so please stop it and find ways to make our own life outside of bitcoin creator.

From the makers of the Escobar Fold and other phones that never really reached its buyers, I don't think there is any credibility to the recent claims of Escobar Inc. They are trying so hard to be relevant these days even though their deceased kingpin is just a legend and nothing more. They are using the name Escobar to further their ambitions, and it's nothing really amazing or anything, just plainly annoying and outright stupid. Also, how would the Escobar estate know who Satoshi is? Heck, anyone can be Satoshi on their eyes. Remember the poor Dorian Nakamoto who's just enjoying his retirement and suddenly began receiving countless interviews and appointments? Roll Eyes

I am really doubting that news, must be just another garbage bait just to get some attention from people and readers. However, granted they know the real Satoshi Nakamoto then the best thing to do is to show us where to really communicate with the guy and have him show of being genuine. As what I have been suggesting, the legend of Satoshi Nakamoto can be continuing as long as the real guy will continue to be in hiding (or maybe he is dead, anyway).

what is this "brake pedal" you speak of?
I believe with all my heart that Satoshi would not have used his real surname as this would be a ever so slightly large security slip up.

I do also believe that he was only human so would be worried about forgetting his original name. Therefore he would've slightly changed it.

Due to my research I wholeheartedly believe Satoshi is Dr Shakamoto - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sfs4vGDMWBE

i think youre onto something.

with only slightly more rearrangement of letters i have come to the conclusion that Satoshi is Rick Astley.

You and me and everyone else can claim that we met Satoshi but we all know that this is not true but people will always look for extra attention or to make a quick buck after selling an article like that from above.

Question everything, believe nothing and let Satoshi to remain an enigma <3.

I don't know why this keeps popping, very old news, two years ago, Pablo Escobar's Brother Says He Met an FBI Agent Posing As Satoshi Nakamoto.

I'm not sure what happen to the project, but I guess they need to create another news so that people's interest will be piqued, but Nah, I don't think so. There is no connection whatsoever.
Now this even makes the claim look more stupid and a desperate attempt to grasp from attention. Something certainly is not right. Satoshi being a very mysterious figure who has never responded or defended himself against any claim despite months and months of different claims from different people. This makes him am easy target but the good news is that people barely believe this kind of crap these days.

There is 0 chance that Satoshi Nakamoto real name is Nakamoto.
The dude was not in for the fame, the way he worked, the way he communicated, everything was about privacy.

There is a higher chance of satoshi being Donald trump than Yasutaka

I don't know for other people, but I don't believe this to be true. There are many other people that has been believed to be the real Satoshi Nakamoto but none of them were. This family of Pablo Escobar are saying this Yasutaka is Satoshi because he has Nakamoto in his name, which is the same thing with Dorian Nakamoto who was first believed to be the real Satoshi Nakamoto.

Even now there are people who believe that Nick Szabo is the creator of Bitcoin because he has worked on similar things in the past, such as the Bit Gold. You can do your research. The real Satoshi Nakamoto has not been found and he has decided to stay hidden, that's his choice, so let's stop stressing ourselves.

You can see this guy is looking for money whenever he can.

He sued Apple, tried to patent Bitcoin, now is trying to make money on his news about Satoshi. The same kind of attention seeker as CSW - which is actually the worst kind.

Quote
Escobar Inc. was behind the “Diet Bitcoin” project, a fork of the BTC chain that was transferred to the ETH chain last year.
In that picture he looks like the one in need of a diet.

No, I don't think so,
Is there no stopping with this claim?
Couldn't we just let go of that and move on? I know it is important for some of us here but does it really matter now?
It had been 12 years already and I think that is enough to say he doesn't want to be seen.

I think the evidences and proofs are not enough and not valid to consider that people know Satoshi Nakomoto in your article because to be honest it is very easy for a person to claim that they knew about Satoshi and making silly stories about him. So we shouldn't believe them too easily because it is really very hard for us to know who is Satoshi Nakamoto truly is.

I consulted my crystal sphere, and she revealed to me that one of these people from the link must be Satoshi Nakamoto. Of course the surname Nakamoto is very common in Japan, so there are probably thousands of potential candidates. If we can't find Satoshi already, maybe we should start looking for his relatives Grin

This with Escobar is really one of the bigger nonsense I’ve ever read, and these journalists should get a lifetime award for nonsense.

     Seriously. I really am growing tired of news such as this. The damn person doesn't want to be found!! Leave the damn person alone for goodness's sake! I really cannot understand what these people get for continuously trying to find the "real founder" of Bitcoin(s). Clearly enough, the person doesn't want the fame or recognition. He or she obviously wants to live a peaceful life away from other people's eyes and ears. Why not just let the person be rather than talking about lots of bullcrap that can't even prove anything. Gosh.

There are lots of rumors and conspiracy who Satoshi really is but none of the proves their claim. Talking about the real identity of satoshi is truly a great entertainment but it doesn't mean that we need to force ourselves in disclosing an identity of a person who doesn't even want a spotlight  Wink.

In fact, satoshi can be an alien, man, woman, a company or a non-binary. Again, it is entertaining but it will never shed some light.

The Escobars Believe They’ve Found the Real Satoshi ...

"... In a recent phone call with Cointelegraph, Gustaffson — right-hand man to Pablo’s brother Robert — relayed this fantastical version of events in an effort, he says, to silence some of the furor created by self-proclaimed Satoshi Nakamoto, Craig S. Wright. ..."

...

Whilst not being the same candidate I've found in my own research ...

I guess when even Escobar Inc. is asserting that Craig S. Wright is NOT satoshi, one kind of has to agree!

Hey "Satoshi" ... I think I found you ...
 

 
Am I right ?

Yey, so true, they seem to be obsessed who will publish the most incredible theory about origin of Satoshi. So many unbelivable conspiracy theories appear all the time and I don't know why people are so interested in it.
Even if they new the true identity of Satoshi why would that be so important for them or Bitcoin community. Just let the man be...

Also, the anime was released in 2011 so it makes sense, Satoshi is now a cat!, that's why he disappeared.

Are we going to trust the words of someone descending from Pablo's family tree? Although it's not Pablo himself, it's going to be quite hard for me and most others to trust any of his relatives. Especially after his Diet Bitcoin, which turned into a huge fail and possible scam (heard of it before the launch, but never kept up to date with it).

At this point, it's probably going to be pretty hard even for Satoshi himself to come out and prove he's the legit one especially if he hasn't planned for his identity reveal from the beginning.

because every year we have new characters who say they met satoshi? sometimes even the person considers himself satoshi and I believe that by the end of the year we will see more people claiming that they met satoshi or that they are satoshi. If this Pablo Escobar family really knew satoshi nakamoto, then they would have said that years ago and I very much doubt that people like Faketoshi did not know about this story. In my opinion these descendants of Pablo Escobar want to gain attention thanks to bitcoin the worst part of this story Is when they say that the supposed satoshi nakamoto that his real name is Yasutaka Nakamoto smuggled cocaine to Pablo, which definitely does not help bitcoin image. I'm glad that he (Yasutaka Nakamoto) is not satoshi nakamoto

Whoever it was, I think most people will not entertain any kind of theory regarding the real identity of Satoshi Nakamoto  as there has been a lot already and until now, we are still blank on who really is Satoshi Nakamoto in real life, I would say it's a total waste of time if we entertain this kind of theory, unless there is a valid evidence that would really connect to the real Satoshi Nakamoto.

Thing is, the market has evolved even with  Satoshi Nakamoto's identity remained anonymous, so how would it change bitcoin?

There will always be people claiming that they believed and knew who Satoshi Nakamoto is. In reality, it's our choice to believe them or not but most likely, the majority won't believe whenever some claims that he is Satoshi or whenever someone points out that who Satoshi is.

The article I think is just also part of a marketing for their "Diet Bitcoin" fork.

Because it was mentioned.
