Craig Wright=total dumbass so leave him alone and never put it him in the basket.
Hal Finney is dedicated team of Satoshi. How many times did I thought about Hal being Satoshi and realized that he isn't after so many profs that he is not. His statements here indicates that Satoshi is a different person and not him. Silly me, I also thought before that Theymos is Satoshi which just proves me wrong.
It's not really a big deal now. As long as we recognize Satoshi by heart as a Founder of this bitcoin. Then it doesn't really matter if Satoshi wanted to stay anonymous forever.
Topic: Thoughts on Hal Finney/Craig Wright being Satoshi? (Read 350 times)
I agree with your first part of it, I don't there is any way that Craigh Wright would be satoshi, he's currently fighting a case that proves he is Satoshi and his last defence is that he has coffee covered stained papers that explain biitcon in it.
There's a chance that Hal is satoshi, he definelty has that welcoming and overall nice personality and he's shown aspects that satoshi would have shown, like being hidden and not money driven, ectc.
I personally think satoshi is a 3rd person in this equation, but that is just me.

I still don't understand why Satoshi conceals his true identity to date. Many people are now confused when it comes to who is satoshi. Nobody will hold satoshi accountable for creating the bitcoin. It's really bad to see people like Dr. Craig Wrigh claiming to satoshi and so on. He should have present himself a long time ago. If you look at the Ethereum creator Vitalic Buterin nothing has happened to him, here is open to people and enjoying life.
Hello everyone! I have some interesting thoughts to put forward about Hal Finney being Satoshi. (I don't know if they are new or not)
This theory has been discussed countless of times here in this forum and on reddit, also on IRC if you peeps are still onto that so this isn't something new.
I would say that Craig Wright is a liar and maybe Hal Finney is the creator of Bitcoin because:
* Hal Finney died because of complications with ALS in 2014. (Bitcoin was created in 2009)
* Only a dying person has no interest in fame or money and that is why he hid is name and worked for a greater cause, to revolutionise and discourage centralised banking systems.
* Hal Finney died because of complications with ALS in 2014. (Bitcoin was created in 2009)
* Only a dying person has no interest in fame or money and that is why he hid is name and worked for a greater cause, to revolutionise and discourage centralised banking systems.
Maybe Hal doesn't personally need the money on his own but he openly stated that he left some bitcoins for the safety/security of his family in the future should bitcoin reach insane heights. He's a true cypherpunk and a believer of anarchy, and at the same time a dedicated volunteer for bitcoin, but that IMO isn't enough of a reason why he could be satoshi.
* Why would someone like Craig Wright try to be 100% private and then all of a sudden become public? He also only became public AFTER Hal Finney's death.
He's just feeding his ego with all these talks. I'm still waiting for him to actually cause some serious damage to bitcoin which, to my dismay, hasn't happened yet.

I'm not sure who craig wright really is but I'm certain that he isn't Mr. Satoshi, for sure. Like you had said, why take all of the trouble to conceal ones own identity then all of the sudden rush into the spot light to claim the fame (infamy in Craig's case)?I would say that Craig Wright is a liar and maybe Hal Finney is the creator of Bitcoin because:

Why make blockchain open source at all, why didn't he try to sell the idea off? I don't think Hal or Craig is the creator.

"Craig Wright - Lying about Hal Finney once more. 🤦♂️
Craig recently claimed in public that "cypherpunk-affiliated developers like Hal Finney held patents".
Nope. It's a lie, Craig. A few of Hal's emails are referenced in 8 patents, that's all. But he had no patents himself."

"Craig Wright - Do. Not. F*ck. With. Hal. Finney.
After putting his shit on the Bitcoin legacy of OGs like @marttimalmi, he's now going after Hal Finney.
Don't do that, Craig. You're making a #Faketoshi fool of yourself again."

Nope. Not Craig Wright. Let's get over him because he's not the real Satoshi. The more we include his name with bitcoin, it only means he's succeeding getting everyone's attention.
If Hal Finney is the real Satoshi, he should've said it or left a message before he died. I know Satoshi wants to hide his identity but he should've told the world before he died just to give credits to his work. And he never really claimed to be Satoshi so it's still hard to make assumptions.

Many people who claim to be Satoshi Nakamoto are not only Craig Wright, but Craig Wright is the most viral because he claims to be Satoshi Nakamoto and he has a hobby of creating controversy from time to time even though everyone knows the figure of Craig Wright but he doesn't care.
and I also assume that Hal Finney is also not Satoshi Nakamoto.

OP, please remove the charlatan, Craig Wright's name beside Hal Finney's name. You're giving Hal's name AIDS by putting him near it. "Craig Wright", and "being Satoshi" should not be in a sentence. Hahaha.
Sorry
Everyone knows that Craig Wright is just a list, claiming to be what he has s bit, just deceiving gullible minds. It amazes me seeing him posing as Satoshi all the time, worst of it, his followers are blindly following and believe in him.
These are careful analysis, but I still don't believe that it validates Hal Finney as the real Satoshi. Bitcoin must have been created by a team of persons, Hal might be a part of the team and not just the sole creator.

Craig Wright is a big lier, nothing else, everyone knows that. Like him, we have seen many people who claimed them as Satoshi. But we know Satoshi won't talk too much to prove himself, all who claimed as a Satoshi, they were greedy and dishonest people!
You have a point OP "Only dead man can ignore this fame and money" so maybe Satoshi is dead years ago! But I don't think Hal Finny was that great man! Though there was lots of analyzing, review, calculation about Hal Finney being Satoshi! Satoshi came from most likely Japan, not from the USA! Personally, I think maybe we saw the real satoshi, but he did not claim it! Maybe he did not want this fame like John Snow said thousands of times "I don't want it"

Craig Wright is an impostor and for me is gross to see that guy acting like he is Satoshi. I think Hal Finney was just a colaborator of Satoshi Nakamoto and not the man itself or maybe Satoshi is a group of highly intelectual people and he was part of them. But one thing I hate on this world are scammers and impostors, I think they have no higher scope of life, their sole goal is to make money and enjoy the so called "pleasures", but they won't ever understand that they have dumped their spiritual part away by choosing that life.
Here's a nice little read from Hal himself.

Give or take, I suppose Hal Finney may have the slightest possibility of being Satoshi Nakamoto himself until proven otherwise.
There is no question that Hal helped during the initial stages of the bitcoin development and there are many communications between Satoshi and Hal and this forum has witnessed many communication between them, either he has some mental issues to create two accounts to communicate with two accounts which is highly unlikely. But on the case of CSW, there is zero possibility of him being Bitcoin's creator not until he can sign those early address(s) used by Satoshi Nakamoto himself. 
That is the broader picture, the development is taken care when after he left the project a long time ago and hence if anyone has to prove something they know how to provide the proof and proof is everything in cryptography. 
The real Satoshi will be that individual who uses his private key and transfers some Bitcoin. All others are clown and are making fool of themselves. For now It is still a mystery and i think will always remain one.

Definitely not Hal. If you look at Satoshi's posts on Bitcointalk, you can see Satoshi talking to Hal saying things like "Thanks, Hal, it means a lot hearing it from you". One has to be too pathetic to make two accounts and talk to oneself like that. As for Craig, I don't know, it seems ridiculous to me. He's clearly one of the early users and probably interacted with Satoshi one way or another, but he is a jerk, and hopefully, Satoshi is not. And besides, for now he did not provide strong evidence that he's Satoshi even to the court. Dave Kleiman - now, that seems more likely to be true. Although I sincerely hope Satoshi is alive and well, quietly enjoying living without drawing too much attention.

I prefer that Finney claims to be Satoshi Nakamoto because we know that Finney is a scientist. he is a computer expert and he got the smartest award in computer science that maybe he has collaborated with real satoshi nakamoto to make the bitcoin protocol.
hal never claimed to be satoshi.. no ifs or maybes.. 100% no claim
hal did help satoshi.. no ifs or maybes.. 100% proof of help
CW is absolutely a liar, but he seems know who is the real Satoshi.
Hal Finney? I don't care If he is the real Satoshi or a friend to Satoshi. I don't know what's the point of finding the real Satoshi tho.
Satoshi, himself has invented Bitcoin and offered freedom to anyone. Why would we need to know his privacy and disclose him to public? He has right to keep hiding, it's his freedom. So, just let him be Satoshi.

Craig Wright, he really is a shameless con artist who convinces people that he is the real Satoshi Nakamoto and strangely he has no hard evidence about bitcoin how people can trust him. Honestly, I prefer that Finney claims to be Satoshi Nakamoto because we know that Finney is a scientist. he is a computer expert and he got the smartest award in computer science that maybe he has collaborated with real satoshi nakamoto to make the bitcoin protocol.
