why would someone claim to be satoshi fully knowing he won't be able to prove it when the time comes

did he really think we'd take gavin's word " i verified his key " as irrefutable proof?

Bitcoin is a world of cunning, intrigue, mystery and excitement!

nope i dont think so. lets see how this all develops, but to outright refuse the possibility seems extremely childish to me.

the first time Craig Wright said he was Satoshi I watched some videos of him talking. it was so obvious that a person such as him could in no way be Satoshi.

you see, thats a perfect example of whats going on at the moment. the community is in full denial at the moment. people kind of glorified satoshi and everyone had his own version of Satoshi in their minds. now that we actually have him eventually "at hand" they refuse to accept reality and desperately try to cling to their dream version of Satoshi.

pretty tragic if you ask me.

As long as Wright has not proven it in public to all of us he remains a hoax!
And even if he should be Satoshi, what I do not believe, nothing will change!!
Or does anyone here really believes the community will start to praise this guy as our lord and follow him like lemmings?
Maybe that is what Gavin is hoping.Bigger blocks!! Wink

There's nothing ireffutable yet. And who in the BBC is going to have much of a clue as to what it takes to prove it?

I can't be the only one who wants to see a BBC Bitcoin special hosted by Jeremy Clarkson?

sorry for the spaces Grin

Back on topic: anyone think 440 will hold?

NLC do you even trade Huh

Breaking 430 is key to triggering stop losses/longs bailing out causing a heavy drop to test 400-405.

Gavin has not posted anything to reddit in the past 10 days. Are there any recent posts by him anywhere else? Any OTHER posts where he confirms Craig's claim?

Gavin has now posted a bit more information on reddit

Apparently he verified the signature on a laptop provided by Craig, using software downloaded by Craig. And was not allowed to keep the laptop or the signed message.

Who can see what is wrong with that?

hodl the phone!
if he was able to sign a new msg with known satoshi keys dating from block 1 ... i think thats irrefutable proof
but maybe the laptop used to verify was compromised.
if he would make that sig public tho there would be no doubt

Probably.

In other news, Russia will make Bitcoin illegal (again) and Japan declared Bitcoin a payment medium.

Whoa. Seven years in the gulags for using bitcoins in Russia? And all Bitcoin companies in Japan will now have to comply with AML/KYC?!
Can this day get any worse?

Something to think about though.

The last time Satoshi was wrongly revealed, Satoshi posted "I am not Dorian Satoshi".

No such post here.

It's old, maybe he changed his mind.

That's right...forgot about that one.

At minimum too incompetent to have commit access in the future with that explanation.

I love how Gavin just proved he's a double agent. Now the block size increase will be off as everyone can surely now see Gavin represents the enemies of Bitcoin trying to break it by increasing the block chain.

Nice work Gavin. No-one expect retarded journalists and the fucking plebs will believe you. Do we need to show you the door or can you let yourself out? Cool
