Topic: Some dude claims to have met Satoshi in 1993. - page 2. (Read 712 times)

Even if he has made some good predictions in the past about the price of bitcoin, that does not still prove that what he is postulating is true. I can't even for one day agree to those words; there are people who could have come up with such lies, and it will be a bit convincing. 
 
So let's assume he actually knew who Satoshi is and they were friends. What happened over these years? Why did it take him so long to come up with such a crap story? Well,  I can't find any suitable answer other than to say that he's just seeking attention, which he's probably getting because he's now trending online with such a statement.

Tbh, I'm no longer intrigued by all these claims of people about being related to or have been in contact with Satoshi in the past only now that Bitcoin is a global movement. Anybody that says such now is simply chasing clout and garner as much attention to themselves which doesn't make any sense when you come to think about it. If he met Satoshi in 1993, how does that story benefit the average bitcoin holder? It doesn't

Just think of the motives why he is claiming this, whether true or not. If you have no other intentions, you will just be grateful that you have met such person. And if you truly believe his ideas, you can take advantage of this market.
Many people have claimed of such, and yet, up until now, Satoshi himself doesn't want to reveal himself. So let's respect this decision and be contented for what we have. After all, we are already reaping the benefits of his invention in this humanity. Also, there's no benefit of this claim, what it would do to the community now? Or can it elevate the btc price level in the market? I don't think so.

We all have no idea if he’s telling the truth or not. But even if it’s true, still no one will care. If his purpose of telling it now, especially to the bitcoiners is to lure us in the future like what he did to his old fans before, then he is not in the position to do that or let’s say, claiming about Satoshi is never new to us. Unless if the real Satoshi comes out  and defend your claim, which I think is far from possible, we will believe on what this dude is saying.

Saylor was like WTF and then turned away from him and heard that Satoshi came to him in a dream and Saylor had to take another look at this dreamer. It was double WTF in 10 seconds.

Please... If someone said to me he met Satoshi, I'd want more information. Then he'd say in 93... How do you even know the guy you met in 93 was Satoshi? I bet that in 93 the guy wasn't even planning on using that nickname on this forum.

-hi Scottie, my name is Satoshi, I love how you play, let's be friends. By the way, I'm planning to write a code for a digital currency in about 8 years. 

There have been so many claims from people who say they have met, befriended or known Satoshi. Basically, none of this has any authentic evidence, it's just stories that may be true or false. But the point is, even if those were true, there would be no impact on Bitcoin, because i believe Bitcoin will belong to everyone, and it seems that will become increasingly clear in the future.

Don't feed the troll. He obviously did it for the temporary noise.

LMAO! It was too harsh to spit that horseshit in front of Saylor.

What do you mean as a "honeypot project"? A honeypot is usually when you design an environment that is used by hackers, for their operator to study and analyze their behavior. For example, Cloudflare could be a honeypot, because it is extensively presented in every page nowadays, and could collaborate with the government to provide valuable information from cyber attacks.

I don't see how this analogy would apply to a decentralized currency that comes with privacy features, if desired. If it was created by the NSA, wouldn't they disable things like SIGHASH_ANYONECANPAY, that allow privacy techniques like coinjoin to be implemented?

In my opinion anyone may be right saying they met Satoshi Nakamoto, but may not actually know him as a brain behind bitcoin. because he or they chose to remain anonymous. Over the years most people have came up with some speculation that they knew who Satoshi is. some even claimed to be Satoshi Nakamoto, but all appears to be false, only to attract attention and recognition.

Edited out.

Just like Joan9269 said all these really don't matter. besides those that actually know Satoshi would not want to come out publicly to announce it because of the negative things it packs. The truth is many people that fall for these kind of awkward news really don't understand the concept of bitcoin and how it works. The fact is Satoshi being called a pseudenonymous entity sends a certain information.

Though the internet isn't 100% certain about it, there are actually conspiracies that Satoshi isn't a single person and it all seems to make sense since bitcoin seems too complex for a single person to create alone. It's possible Satoshi was simply a group with "Satoshi" as the head.

So, there's more to this story of Scottie Pippen. He has tweeted some good prediction that did happened although on the exact date but with the price that he has mentioned. Now, he has met Satoshi in 1993? only him can tell the truth, maybe true, maybe for the sake of attention.

And so the curiosity drives on, 😏 the cases of people claiming to have met or known Satoshi is now something of a mere joke as so many people just wants to feed up that curiosity.  Although both Micheal Saylor and others are not some kind of expert when it comes to this issue but the fact that what the guy is saying is full of crabs just makes people's opinion of him stand, I mean how would you even say that Satoshi comes to you sometimes in the dream.😅 Am very certain this isn't the last person who would claim to see or even claim to be Satoshi himself and all these claims lack hard evidence to back it up.

Baloney.

Folks, the only theory that makes sense so far is that "Satoshi" was an worker, or group of wokers at the CIA or NSA.

That's the only thing that can explain the fact that "Satoshi" continues to sit on $200B in Bitcoin without selling it.

The only other explanation is that he died suddenly and in a way that absolutely nobody knew what he did or who he was. But this is extremely unlikely: dying suddenly like that is statistically very unlikely, and it's even more unlikely that there would be nobody around him who could at least have a guess that he might be Satoshi.

Now imagine you are the worker at the CIA/NSA who decided, one day, to create Bitcoin as a honeypot project. Both of these agencies have plenty of personnel on the payroll who could do it, and somebody working there would probably have no problem convincing their boss they be allowed to work on this project because presumably it would have upsides for the agency.

Now imagine that worker started Bitcoin, and then in grew... and grew... and grew...

Now what do you do? First of all, you can't sell your Bitcoin (it's not "yours", it belongs to the US government... sorta). And selling it would absolutely expose you and the secret project since and lump of money like that would need to be reported to Congress (even a small amount money, like a few million way back when, would need to be reported and would compromise the secret).

So you keep the Bitcoin, you disappear your public avatar, and make like the project never existed, keeping the project as one of the country's deepest-held secrets.

That's the only theory I've ever seen that explains everything we know about Satoshi--besides the one that I think is very unlikely.

Scottie: I met Satoshi in my dream as well as in 1993...

Moderator: you seem to have a good relationship with Satoshi (sacarsm)

Scottie: (Not realizing the sacarsm) "I feel like I DO"
how hilarious that is ... Especially since it's coming from the same guy that claimed to be greater than MJ.

..and yet again, just after craig has been silenced for a while, another impersonator is out... This time, they ain't claiming to be Satoshi himself (like others do) bahahahahaha!!!!
This is clearly just another wannabe Satoshi story teller. Let's see how far he goes with this claims

Obviously, we all know everyone that was part of Bitcoin's creation right from onset,and it's quite understandable that some of them are yet to be noticed or mentioned.I see that all these claims are just to distract people and put them in a state of bewilderment.He seems very serious about what he's doing and saying;but let's see how far he can go with this.

The questions you raised are the questions. I always want to raise when I see posts like this. One thing I can't understand is why Satoshi is being commented on so much or has even met him but no one has been able to find any explanation for this. Everything happened just through such discussions. It's nothing more than creating tension between others or us.

And I think it's impossible to find Satoshi. If it was possible, then all these years wouldn't have passed like this. He could have been found inside. But since he couldn't be found, it can be said that he can't be found anymore.

Really Scottie Pippen of the Chicago Bulls dynasty?

I would agree if he says that he met, Black Jesus, -> Michael Jordan, hehehe.

But saying that he met Satoshi when it was not even in the development stage? That's crazy? I guess he really has to say something, as he had his book sitting, in the shelf, Unguarded Hardcover.

That look says it all lmao. He's already done with that talk especially the last seconds of the clip lmao.

Any claim without any proof is considered an obvious fake. I wonder if the host/mod ask any proof from him from that talk lmao.

1993?

Thats 16 years before Bitcoin was released into the wild, Satoshi probably didnt
even start working on it at that stage.

OK the guy claims to have met Satoshi in 1993, it doesnt change anything and I
dont know how he  can associate some guy back in 1993 to Satoshi, maybe he met
some other guy working on a "digital money" project that never made it...

Anyway for me its another meh moment.

Honestly it’s hard and almost impossible to believe someone who makes claims like meeting Satoshi back in 1993. especially when no one even heard of Bitcoin until the 2009.
These types of statements without any proof, make it look like he is just trying to grab attention or possibly pull off some sort of scam. For me, when people put out unverifiable claims like this because it raises lots of red flags. If he can’t provide solid evidence then it’s probably just another conspiracy. I would stay cautious and only trust what can be proven.
