Satoshi Signed PGP, or GTFO.

Did Satoshi ever sign anything with his PGP key? I heard he never signed anything, and someone said it's useless unless he did. However, I don't understand PGP too well. Did Satoshi ever post his public PGP key anywhere?

I know he could sign a message from an early Bitcoin address if his PGP key is useless, but I'm curious whether it is or not.

Yes, he would need to sign a message from a few (more than one, the better, to prove the signer isn't just an early miner)
of his early mining bitcoin addresses. That would be very possible.

In relation to his PGP Key, many have said he had no such key, but there is this record according to bitcoin.org github:
https://github.com/bitcoin-dot-org/bitcoin.org/commit/19e0c74df2162d4510db5df9e50d5ac53b38c498

Satoshi never signed anything with his PGP key, but it was published. You can also get it from https://bitcointalk.org/Satoshi_Nakamoto.asc.

An alternative would be to have him sign a message with an address in the coinbase transactions in any of the first couple of blocks.

That link seems to be broken, do you know where it is elsewhere?
I want to see if the two keys match or are two different keys for Satoshi.

S and N are capital, fixed above.

PS... he claimed in the video that he has relocated to Iceland in order to take advantage of their environment, which is most suitable for operating a supercomputer. He said he was about to launch an even larger one there.

All of this should be easily verifiable. I think we will soon know.

this doesn't smell right. If it really was him why didn't he came out a few weeks ago when he could have been nominated for the Nobel Prize? I don't believe it can be him. There's all kind of signs that the information could have been tampered.

Bait and switch. Decoy. He knows of him, though. It's like the Joker. He masks his minions and sends them out as the bait.

This is a good theory. It would be dumb to expose yourself as the creator of bitcoin, you'd get a shit load of attention and threats.

The Wired article was interesting and sometimes almost convincing.
If he is a fake, then the real Satoshi is glad to have some fool grab a bunch of attention.

Well there is Dave Kleiman, the guy who died, it's possible he was the driving force even though plenty about his final circumstances doesn't add up either.

No maps for these territories

He can prove or disprove it moving some of the 1.1M BTC and texting "Im wright" or "Im not wright"

But... why he would dox himself? Seem like a easy target for ramson and too much attention... Maybe to take control of his creation? (Allowing/disalowing BIP 101, for example?)

Questions, questions... maybe time will tell, maybe.

There has been much speculation over the years that Satoshi must have had incredible processing power. Perhaps the biggest take away from the 1 hour 15 minute video conference < see video at: http://www.wired.com/2015/12/bitcoins-creator-satoshi-nakamoto-is-probably-this-unknown-australian-genius/ > is Craig Wright's claim to operate the world's 15th largest Supercomputer, just a hair less powerful than that of the NSA. He identified it.....

TULIP TRADING < http://www.top500.org/site/50547 >
Country   Australia
SYSTEM:: C01N - SGI ICE X/SuperBlade SBI-7127RG-E, Intel Xeon E5-2695v2 12C 2.4GHz, Infiniband FDR, NDIVA M2090/Intel Xeon Phi 7120P
CORES:: 265,440   / RMAX (GFLOP/S):: 3,521,000   RPEAK (GFLOP/S):: 4,470,408

This will not be difficult to verify. Everyone will be all over it tomorrow. Truth will come out.

I watched the entire video. It was quite informative, and I suggest everyone watch the entire video. If this IS Satoshi, then based on his revelations here..... things are getting ready to get very interesting in bitcoin land. And my guess is that a lot of the plans being laid by bankers to run private blockchains just got very shaky. Watch video. It is worth the hour and fifteen minutes.

Satoshi Signed PGP, or GTFO.
He is either a hoaxer/scammer or a government op.

I concur.

And even if he was, I don't think he will reveal himself. People can speculate, but we won't know without any proof.

Nope. This Wright guy is vain. Look at Satoshi's posts on this forum and there is no sign of that vanity.

Definitely agree with this statement.

This really gone viral even in our local Bitcoin group in Facebook. I just read the latest shared article here in this forum and seems convincing if you will only based on the story and will not seek much deeper about it.

Reading comments now.

There is a word "bloody"...

Sorry to be a wet blanket. Writing a description for (bitcoin) for general audiences is bloody hard. There’s nothing to relate it to.

Bloody secrets.
Always a flaw with obscurity. It can gain time but always fails in the long term.
