If the unknown Satoshi would have such trouble with the law, what about Vitalik Buterin and all the known altcoin creators?

What I mean is, you go to a country where its laws can target you if you reveal yourself as satoshi. You decide to do it despite that but then remember that if you do it you'll have an "issue". That's not logical. It sounds like excuses for the last step of verification.

In any case, if local laws were the problem, he could have done it elsewhere...

Where could you be arrested because you are Satoshi? Except the ones where you can't enter or leave the country, like North Korea

He claims to have met with DreadPirateRoberts at a Bondi Iceberg club in Sydney...

Wright later confirmed that this meeting took place, but said only that Ulbricht was full of himself and they didn’t discuss bitcoin. Matthews seemed to think this was unlikely. He wondered whether Kleiman had had more to do with Ulbricht; other sources suggested the same.

The next day, he sent me an email. It linked to an article headlined ‘UK Law Enforcement Sources Hint at Impending Craig Wright Arrest’. The article suggested that the father of bitcoin might be liable, under the Terrorism Act, for the actions of people who used bitcoin to buy weapons. Under the link, Wright had written an explanation: ‘I walk from 1 billion or I go to jail. I never wanted to be out, but if I prove it, they destroy me and my family. I am the source of terrorist funds as bitcoin creator or I am a fraud to the world. At least a fraud is able to see his family. There is nothing I can do.’

So he went to the UK to make a revelation that would target him with the local UK-antiterrorism law, and despite already having one similar experience in Australia where he started being chased down by the authorities after some press articles, he pretended that this was not an issue (is he a total idiot?), until he was asked to sign something for the public when he "remembered" that he would be ...targeted for revealing his id so he had to ...back off.

Seriously? Roll Eyes

I dunno but it's too crazy for me not to be true. Plus with all of the psychos (even just in this thread) i'm sure they'll be a lot of people who would love to never see the BTC1MM of Satoshis BTC moved. Guy has a key to $1B which possibly be lost with him, his life would never be the same. Plus effect on the market would be devastated short term unless the first move is to some burner address

At one point, I asked him to send me an email from the original Satoshi account.

‘Can you do that?’ I asked.

‘Yes,’ he said. ‘But I’d need Rob’s permission.’ When I asked MacGregor he said that was absurd. He simply didn’t want to – or couldn’t – give too much away, and that was unfortunate in someone who’d agreed to sit down every day with a writer. He seemed to have full knowledge of that email account, in a way that made it seem unquestionably his. But somehow, it offended his sense of personal power to prove it.

Jeeezus! TLDR ..I got lost after "The Satoshi Affair"  but dont mind me, short attention span....

All I need is bfx api trading app that is multi window enabled. It doesn't even need charts.

Or an api website that uses just a cookie for authentication

It says a company called nCrypt is purchasing or has purchased the intellectual property rights from Craig's companies.

@BlindMayorBitcorn, Dave Kleiman & someone with a very sociopathic personality said that digital money was the way of the future, one (Dr. Craig Wright?) is tired of fuckwits? All this according to Lynn?
And then they kissed & got run over by a tram?
In 35495 words?

This is going to have to do for now. I really wish the bottom was something native with an api that didn't timeout or need login.

‘I knew Dave Kleiman and he were working together,’ Lynn told me, ‘and I remember them saying that digital money was the way of the future. I’ve never said this to anybody, but I knew he was working on it and I didn’t ask, because I knew he would bite my head off if I didn’t understand it. He’s got a very sociopathic personality.’

Perhaps you'll penetrate. Or maybe someone else will Undecided

Ha I see that there are still bears and trolls on this forum. They must have a rough time. Bitcoin is the best investment opportunity in my lifetime. In the upcoming week we will penetrate the 800's.

I don't know about China, but in the U.S. more and more BTC stuff is magically making its way onto TV. Some large holders want a bull run...

really? like what? advertising and such? by which companies?

Mostly reruns of that special where the guy tried to (or did?) live off BTC in New York for a week. And also of course being mentioned on financial shows. But as we saw in early 2014, the media in Beijing can be bought to say whatever the wealthy like. So I'm hoping Xinhua, South China Morning Post etc. say a lot of positive stuff about BTC this month. A lot of red tape in China though

Self-Custody is a right. Say no to"Non-custodial"
with this latest dumps: i'm sure you all finally realize the inevitable... that bitcoin is done ... crypto is finally dead .


yeah right..  Roll Eyes Roll Eyes   Looks who is back?  Gimpy himself...   Bitcoin is gimpycoin right?    Remember your strong and repeated prediction that bitcoin is stuck in a channel between $350 and $500 and never going to go above $500, EVER?  Remember that nonsense  that you were spewing earlier in the year... ?  Yeah, this year... so I guess your prediciton of never does not count for less than 6 months later?

You are a goofball, and I surprised that you or your buddy, BJA ( oh where is BJA) want to stick in your shilling.. just in case there could be a trend reversal...   Currently, not looking so good for you doomers and gloomers?


u must forgot, anything over $??? and i'm in the green.. $350 to $500 was horrible with that "scaling issue" overhanging bitcoin. finally it did something.. is about time!


Naw... $350 to $500 was not a bad place to be floating for several months, especially compared with being stuck largely in the lower $200s for 3/4 of a year, and also the whole bear market that seemed to play out for nearly 2 years.

By the time we reached $350 to $500, it was beginning to become quite clear that the bear trend had reversed, even though there were a bunch of rage quitter wanna bees, bitcoin nayspreaders who seemed intent on either causing a neutralizing of the reversal of the bull trend or to resume to a bear trend (or minimally flat).  And, if you do not forget, you were contributing to that nonsense FUCD spreading... and difficult to give you any benefit of the doubt regarding the extent of your fantastical nonsense.

We are in a very great place right now, even if we were to get a correction into the upper $500s, which does not seem too likely at the moment... Currently, in spite several corrections over the past couple of days, we are experiencing a considerable amount of upwards price pressures on BTC.  I don't know if we are going to break $850, but at the moment, the current market conditions are looking pretty good for such a break.  At the same time, we are getting some resistance in this upper $700s and such resistance can continue within the $750 or so to $850 price range, and accordingly either bears or bulls could win such a price battle, but either way, bitcoin still is in a very decent place, even if we get a significant price correction from here.


By the way, whether you are in the green or not (significantly) seems to be quite irrelevant to this whole topic.  Why does it matter whether you are in the green?  Do you think that we are competing against each other regarding who is in the green or not and by how much?  It does not matter, and the main thing is whether you have set up your various investments in accordance with your own financial circumstances and your views about bitcoin and your risk profile, no?



u the one who said it wasnt looking good for doomers and gloomers ..

Really it seems to me like you are reading too much personal into what I am saying. 

I could give a ratt's ass about your personal investment, because that it ultimately up to you to personally attempt to align that with your views and your personal circumstances.  Sometimes, yeah, we may discuss some of our personal holdings because we are attempting to brainstorm about allocation or portfolio management strategies or even just attempting to clarify our views of the BTC market in light of our own personal BTC holdings.

When I say it is not looking good for you doomers and gloomers, I am talking about your past (and or present) predictions about bitcoin and where bitcoin is at currently.








just because i fud u doesn't mean i'm not HODLing the entire time .


That's your deal whether you decide to talk your book or talk against your book or otherwise.  I personally don't think that it is too relevant, except to the extent when guys may accuse a poster of distorting reality based on "talking his book".  I may have accused you in the past of talking your book, but that has not been a recent accusation of mine, at least towards you... although you are likely somewhat astute to recognize that I may in the future lobby such an attack towards you.... like for example when you seem to be attempt to pump and pimp precious metals (pms)  Roll Eyes Roll Eyes - especially in a thread like this where such pm pumping pimping is largely irrelevant to bitcoin discussions (except maybe from time to time or sporadically to make some factual comparisons, rather than pumping/pimping them)


i still don't trust bitcoin to buy at these prices.

Your choice.  There are plenty of people buying at these prices, and seems pretty likely to be lots of folks buying even above these prices, depending on how things play out in the coming days, weeks, months.



did the scaling issue get fixed yet ?? if it hasn't, really have to wonder why not . i'm NOT fudn u right now.. i'm just saying .

The scaling issue is sufficiently being addressed by a variety of measures including seg wit, and really, a lot of folks (and likely including the market) realize that bitcoin is not broken like the FUCD spreaders were in the habit of propagating such baloney, and many folks are coming to realize the preposterous nature of such ongoing and loudly vocalized claims.  If you really believe such nonsense that is on you, even though you are bringing it up while at the same time suggesting that you are purportedly "seriously concerned."
