Topic: [email protected] is compromised - page 7. (Read 152326 times)
Still. There is no new information on what is going on. Please stop posting before you know the facts.
this guy was always an obvious fraud
I believe that post when he stated "I am not Dorian" is from SN. From the logs of the emails that were posted, the hacker just received access right before he sent the email to theymos. So, I believe that earlier post is legit...
"The email said: Quote from: [email protected] Michael, send me some coins before I hitman you." Not the fbi then?
Why wouldn't the hacker though - presuming it was hacked - not use it to profit by say falsely telling a reporter he was to sell the million coins after having shorted btc everywhere instead of making a death threat??
The reporter only contacted the account because of the death thread and the fact it was reported the account was hacked. Without the death threat he would not have been contacted to potentially make this statement.Why wouldn't the hacker though - presuming it was hacked - not use it to profit by say falsely telling a reporter he was to sell the million coins after having shorted btc everywhere instead of making a death threat??
The hacker did attempt to profit however it appears that the hacker was/is very immature and did not think things through very well

If it was the real Satoshi who wrote "I am not ..", he would definitely have signed the message, as he wanted the people to believe that it really was him. He would never forget that. So it was not him.
I wonder when the email was compromised, and whether it could have been used to make the post on p2pfoundation.ning.com. (Edit: I was referring here to the Dorian Nakamoto post. After I posted this, there was another p2pfoundation.ning.com post.)
Do you think the "not Dorian" post was fake? If yes, the same hacker or a different hacker than now?

The question is open to everyone.
It was not from Satoshi.
It was from a different 'hacker'.
So what would be the impact of satoshi being revealed?
I understand there could be personal reprocussions for the man himself, and that there is a great human interest story here, but bitcoin will not be affected. The world may be disappointed when we find out satoshi is a programmer and leads a life typical of one (he's boring)
I don't think bitcoin would necessarily be affected solely by satoshi being doxxed. It would certainly affect satoshi's life negatively as he would receive a lot of attention that he clearly does not want.

One way it could potentially affect bitcoin is that satashi would have less reason to continue to hold his bitcoin so there would be a greater chance that he would sell some of it.
If Satoshi was doxxed he'd just go on the run or into hiding. He has enough money to disappear and go wherever he wants. I also don't think he'd be stupid enough to leave traceable info that could be linked back to him in his emails.
Yep, bitcoin is completely decentralized, so if the creator dies, no effect on it at all, nothing is lost except his massive amount of btc
Bitcoin has a market value, you know. It has less to do with the fact the technology is stable or not, it's about supply and demand. Anything related to Satoshi can move his 1M coins to the market which would influence the price enormously.
Regarding his (god forbid) death, why would his coins be lost in that case? He certainly provided his heirs to his private keys in case he dies.

How is this dude going to see his IP?
GMX wouldn't record anything other than the IP of the exit node, if it was Satoshi's E-mail client leaking his IP, then those who corresponded with him should have his IP as well. Moreover it has been 3 years how does he know that it's not a Tor node that is no longer in use?
Somehow I don't think this kid knows what he's talking about.

It was clear this was a fraud since day 1.
not many people 10 or 20 years ago were talking as if there was a different option for "source" of money I would think.
Not many perhaps by percentage, but a lot more people than you are thinking about. It was not rare. So what would be the impact of satoshi being revealed?

If we take any lesson from all the other times, the result would be that Bitcoin would become personified and every foible and human flaw would be deconstructed.
Each of these would be used to impute nefarious motivation and failings would be magnified. The narrative would become the human interest story, the story of the chase, the pursuit, the capture, and all the merits of Bitcoin the work, would be brushed aside.
With the entire globe blanketed by fiat pumpty dumpter central banks, there aren't really safe places for him to stand. Choosing anonymity was both very wise and supremely generous, it does more for Bitcoin than for Satoshi.
"They" would still find suspicious behaviors, criminal records, crazy pictures, death threats or whatever. Real or not.
Whoever Satoshi is, he's human with all the quirks and flaws that implies.It means he has good days and bad days, good ideas and bad ones.
He wouldn't live up to the mythology that's grown around his identity over the last few years.
Would you let your money be handled by someone with schizophrenia?
No I certainly prefer it to be handled by the political sociopaths at the ECB, FED, IMF, etc.
It's obviously not my vision, but I think we will hear that kind of things
