Topic: People claiming themself satoshi - page 7. (Read 1801 times)

He second to last post was about the "swarm headed to us" after the press started to associate wikileaks with bitcoin.

A lot of people are claiming to be satoshi, but satoshi is a coding expert. People claiming to be satoshi wanted that 1M bitcoin that he has. Last time we heard the "REAL" satoshi was in March of 2014 saying that he is not Dorian Nakamoto.

many people can only claim to be Satoshi Nakamoto but they can't prove he is really Satoshi Nakomoto, maybe in the future someone else will appear who will acknowledge him as Satoshi but as long as Satoshi's wallet can't be opened it means he's not Satoshi.

This is why Bitcoin success climbs here now because of that reason of the Creator being anonymous or what they say Hiding his Identity.

But to be Honest? I am afraid if Satoshi or the group behind Satoshi is still alive  as the hunt from the authority or the groups is rampant yet no proof of personality .

Almost everyone mentioned each Satoshi that They known and even if how they claimed to be Satoshi yet all of them are fraud and not welcome to be named as Satoshi.

So i think this thread cares nothing but spam so Hope OP will locked this now as all of the named are already listed so there are no reason to further the topic.
I think the Title should be changed to " Who claimed to be FAKETOSHI"

Why did he choose to remain anonymous? Why didn't he want the credit?  Maybe there many reasons behind this. People believe  this was commended to be the reason for bitcoin's success too but his fans have been curious too. Fakers gonna fake but the world is pore to about him or her.

The real satoshi will prefer to be more anonymous and yet updated on the current events on the crypto market because that's the right thing to do, and he has been doing that for almost a decade. So maybe he has really no plans exposing himself, not now or even in the future. So expect that there will be more fake satoshis coming in the future and i would not be surprise either if the real satoshi suddenly comes out, he will also be considered a fake satoshi. So he's more safe if he just stay anonymous.

3 people alleged or claims to be satoshi.

But i wont still believe that he would easily exposed himself into the public knowing that it would be risky for him
then i dont think that he would consider such action.

If what he want to hide from is government that would still be the first thing they look for, this kind of reverse psychology trick would not work with government agencies.

On the other hand can wonder why using something that still look like a real name at all, unless its a reference to something or someone but never saw this being elucidated.

Or maybe he needed something that look like a real name to register into some service or another. But even so he would probably have used something fake and generic not to give much clue.

The thing is that Satoshi was one of the most private people you'll seemingly ever meet ( or not meet for that matter ).  If you speak with those who worked with him directly, they will all tell you that any time that they tried speaking with Satoshi about anything personally what so ever, that he would simply ignore it.  That's why it's quite hard to believe that all of a sudden he would just come out and be public.  I just don't see it.

I sure as shit know that the great Dr Craig Wright is NOT satoshi  #fakesatoshi

all you get is a full-scale onslaught of criticism from the nerd community and an everlasting hate, you're also going to get a lot of heartache because you'll be ridiculed all over the internet, i don't see how that would be an advantage. better to stay away from this faketoshi lore than to have headaches forever


maybe he used his real name because no one would suspect it because it's obvious

Just throwing my 2 cents but regarding how much care he put on being anonymous i really doubt he would have used his real name anywhere.

For sure he wasnt expecting for Bitcoin to be this big on a decades time but it  did really turn out to get that recognition from the entire community considering on how much value it did able to raise up.

Claiming as satoshi wont really be doing something good as long they couldnt show off solid proofs then they would rather making themselves to be looking like a clown in the entire community.

Just take and example on whats the view or impression of the community towards CSW? Total clown isnt it? 

The only reason that i think why they claim themselves as satoshi is to own the recognition that only the real satoshi deserves. Because if others will fall for them, merits will be sent for them, taking it as their advantage. But one thing is certain, Satoshi Nakamoto has planned all of these because he knew before that these things will eventually happen. So leaving the forum all of a sudden is intentional.

This is very common nowadays, there are many people that cannot simply do something because they enjoy doing it and instead they are always trying to get attention from others in some way or another, while some are just caught in the times we live and eventually get over it I have known many people that are sick and try to find that attention in any way they can, so it is not difficult to guess that some of those that claim to be satoshi are people like that.

There are so many personalities that had claimed they are Satoshi Nakamoto way back, but it isn't really ever confirmed that either of them is the real founder of bitcoin. Some of the personalities that are involved in this claiming of identity/pseudonym are Hal Finney, Dorian Satoshi Nakamoto, Nick Szabo, and recently Craig Wright. I don't really think that Satoshi Nakamoto is really one of them because, in the first place, Nakamoto decided to hide behind a pseudonym to keep his identity private. With that, we can conclude that privacy is of importance to Nakamoto. It doesn't really appear to me that he will suddenly showcase himself to the world out of nowhere just to gain some recognition which clearly he doesn't like nor fond of because he hid for a long time already. I don't see any reason for him to tell his real identity and be invaded afterward.

These people who keep on claiming to be Nakamoto only want recognition, praise, and maybe money. Because as we all know, Satoshi is really well-known and by claiming they are him, people will be glorified to be their partner. This scenario could lead to scamming. So, it's really better to not easily believe what you see, read or hear over the internet or news. Always do thorough background checking before spreading data to avoid misinformation.

it's really a scam ever since the number of hackers online pretending and then i got a news that they were caught scamming others and it was caught that they were pretending to be a bitcoin investment so people can easily believe because bitcoin  is of great value so in the end it was a scam and even used the name bitcoin ...

Yes, I think so. There are a lot of people in crypto trying to do something like this. It is painful, but people like them are in all other worlds. The onlt think we could do is trying to identify such people and avoid them!

Attention seeking most likely.

I see these kinds of people every day in my life and they're messed up in their head for some reason, It's obvious that their lies won't be unnoticed for long but they somehow seem to overlook that.

We know that Satoshi very well that can not show it self again those people claiming to be Satoshi are doing that to get firm and also trying to scam people with the influence of Satoshi that is popular to every one, many people have enter into Bitcoin and they are looking for a way to get attached with Satoshi so that they  can scam some one with the name
