Today I looked through the posts of BCNext.
https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/bcnext-152600And Qora posts.
https://bitcointalksearch.org/user/qora-289537I'm invested in both coins and am fascinated but the idea of them being the same guy. I have my doubts but seriously they both speak in almost exactly the same way. really high quality English but you can tell with some grammar they are not native speakers. Not Asian or Russian but most likely European. So Qora has said he is from Europe possibly said Netherlands (not sure) and BCNExt has almost the same quality of English. They both fro example say things like I can not, instead of can't or Will not instead of won't. Good English but clearly not Native.
So I spent about an hour scanning their posts. I might do a real study fo them. Sherlock Holmes is my hero, im a nerd like that.
So apart from the Obvious language similarity. I noted a few things
1. The speak very minimally. They don't chit chat, just short bursts of talk mainly focused on the work involved.
2. BCnext has stated he works alone due to his bad experiences working with other developers. BUT he says he has a guy who works on the client. Now we also know that Qora works alone and also said he has a guy who works on the client. (quite a coincidence if you think about it)
3. They both use Java (not the most common programming language for coins and I believe NXT and Qora are the only coins programmed in java. I would like confirmation on this?
4. Both share in my mind behavior traits. Polite, don't attack others, mild mannered.
5. BCNext disappeared off the map end of last year. Qora appeared this year ie no overlap (its weak but worthy of note)
6. The simple fact Qora is VERY similar to NXt but a new code, but seems to improve on some things and is different in its implementation (Qora has claimed).
I'm interested in what another pair of eyes could find?
There are some language mistakes on both but it would take quite a bit of time to record and see any links. If no one does it I will at some point, but would be far quicker with a few more eyes. I have a hunch that there is a couple of unique spelling mistakes in them that could raise the odds of them being the same person. Just a bit lazy to do it right now.
