Will the Real Satoshi Please Stand Up?
He should not. The post from the P2P account is enough.
I agree. It kind of confirms that he's still here, but at the same time keeps his identity a mystery. It should stay that way in my opinion, and people should just leave it at that. There's no point hassling innocent people like Dorian and whatever just cause you have a theory it's a person whose real identity you'll never be able to find out.

I was thinking the same.


I am sure this is not the real Satoshi. After all the trouble to hide he won't be using his own name.

Besides I think he would be from a younger generation. 50 years at the most now.
Your first sentence is probably the most convincing evidence that he's not satoshi.
Why on earth would he use his real name if he tried to hide his identity? Unless
it's a really well thought through double play where he uses his real name just to
make people think "Nobody's that stupid, it can't be him"!
The conspiracy theories just keep flooding!

When do we find out who wins  the pollol ?
In due time..
Oh well. This isn't really that interesting to me to be honest, I have no doubt Dorian is -not- Satoshi.

it can't be him, he's old and just not.. cool

Well, he is a geek, how cool to you expect him to be?  Wink

That being said, I do not think it's the real Satoshi either.

I couldn't disagree more, I think Dorian Satoshi Nakamoto is supercoolGrin

Can you even imagine the discipline it takes to have hundreds of millions of dollars worth of Bitcoin and not cash them in because you would rather just "keep a low profile"?

We need more people like him in the world, who are willing to change the world for the better without caring much about the financial benefit they can get from it.

If you are reading this Dorian Satoshi Nakamoto, you are an amazing man and I am very grateful for all that you have done for us Smiley

Another weird Dorian fact....

Love this quote from the AP

Asked if he was technically able to come up with the idea for bitcoin, Nakamoto responded: "Capability? Yes, but any programmer could do that."
Obviously, I have no insider knowledge, but it does sounds suspisious. Dorian says he heard first about bitcoin 2-3 weeks ago, sometime says "bitcom" instead of "bitcoin" and seem to think bitcoin is a company (I have not communicate with them bitcoins Wink ) and now he is suddenly so sure that he could do it? Even having the most vague idea  what "bicoin/bitcom" is?


I think what he meant by that statement is that any programmer could have the capability to write such programs if they had strong ideas behind it.

I seriously doubt this guy is "the" Satoshi. In my head at least, I've convinced myself to be like 96.69% sure. That's a pretty sexy amount of sure.

Lol, I think this is the exact reason so many people seem upset about it. We would like much more Bruce Lee twin - like that hilarious spoof post Wink With "Beautiful Mind", ofc

How many people are really technically capable?  It has been suggested that there is only three hundred people in the world with the knowledge and skill to have done this.  

Yes I loved that quote as well!  Grin

Maybe it was just his way to be humble though, and trying to downplay it all.

Dynamic IP from Hals log file could be a also a TOR exit node.

Everyone is saying Satoshi always used TOR. (Which is probably correct.) So why it is assumed he didnt used TOR when doing the first TX with Hal?

mining is so 2012-2013
its sooo him.  might as well be.  even if it is not, he could still make a case and come on this forum and ask for donations.  guess he would be rich.

Why is it so hard for people to admit that we just don't know?
Throw out all theories you want, it won't bring you closer to the
truth.

As with the other "...not involved anymore" quote you have to put this in the context of the conversation, i.e. asking an engineer if he could engineer something is a pretty pointless question.

So we're still at: Proof: Zero, Conjecture: Off the scale.
