He may be brilliant but he is also a socially challenged self loathing individual or maybe so self righteous he cannot damage his rep by spending a dollar.


Obviously you're the one being challanged talking about dollars on a bitcoin forum.
Bitcoin is not about making dollars dude. You will loose if you keep that mindset

So he hasn't cashed in at all because he believes in his life time the fiat will crash and burn and bitcoin will rise to take it's place and he will be the saviour of the world financial institution.

Like I said...nutty.

Not knocking bitcoin or the idea behind such a currency but can we be realistic for a moment. I can agree that paper money is essentially worthless in terms of backing but at the moment it makes the world go round, thinking you have the best alternative is not the only reason to not cash in a little bit in the process.

After all, there is not a lot he could do with btc to enjoy his life that he could with fiat, just a fact at this moment in time.

I believe this was discussed elsewhere...if I recall correctly, it was a db insertion hack and a fairly well known exploit. I think the user login stats on Satoshi on that forum did not update.

Yes, some known hacker claimed that he did it and pulled a similar prank on this forum, but we don't know for sure if he's lying or not.

My gut feeling is that it was fake. That website had been abandoned and wasn't maintained for years, IIRC it was on a free web host too. The hackers story is believable.

Satoshi is probably looking at the price of BTC right now and kicking himself for not backing up his private keys  Roll Eyes

We can't know for sure I guess, but I do believe that it's genuine! Seems to show that Satoshi is still at least watching his experiment and saw the need to interfere when that report was published. I think it was a good 'gesture'!

He is not that smart, if he were smart he would accept that we all have an expiry date and would enjoy the money. People who have issues with enjoying their success have psychological issues and are not some great humanitarian. jmo

Meh, either way a nutty guy, if a person at all.

Well the NSA could be interested in hiring Satoshi. Hell, maybe they even already did, or at least tries Cheesy He seems to be a very very smart person, so why not. But apart from the conspiracy theories, I guess Satoshi just wanted to make sure people know he isn't Dorian.

I'm sceptical. Why wouldn't he have posted here or signed a message?

there has been a fuss around the fact that many think its not him writing the "im not dorian nakamoto"
any news on that ?

also, do you think nsa has the ability to know who is satoshi nakamoto if nsa really wanted to know it ?

In my opinion yes that was a real post from Satoshi, short concise and to the point
If I recall the P2Pfoundation website never got back with a report of the details of Satoshi logging in though.
Anyways no real need to sign a message he wants to remain anon and keeps track of whats going on in Bitcoin as an observer.

Keeper of the Private Key
He didn't sign that message. So if he really wanted everybody to believe that he was the "real" Satoshi Nakamoto he definitely would have signed the message. If he was still alive he would know about the importance to sign the message as a proof for all the "crypto guys" to believe it was him.
Both, the unspent fortune plus the unsigned message (you can't sign a message when you don't have the private key) is leading to the death of Satoshi Nakamoto.

The sudden end of his writings was happening just after the CIA had raised interest and got involved in Bitcoin. Could be coincidence, but also could point to the reason of his disappearance.

The message could have been dropped for everybody to believe, that at the time of that message he was alive. No key, no sign, no proof, so to me Satoshi is still dead. R.I.P.

You will be able to tell when Bitcoin is failing because the owner or owners of the first million coins will begin to sell them.

This can happen if all of the following are true:
1) Satoshi is an individual
2) Satoshi dies
3) Upon death there is a tax liability due. This can be either capital gains upon death, estate taxes or both.
4) Satoshi's estate sells the XBT in order to pay the tax liability.

Occam's Razor says that the "I am not Dorian Nakamoto" post was genuine, until someone comes up with some concrete evidence to the contrary.

the username of 2009 is the same that the username of the 2014 message
It is hardly difficult that it is not genuine

Why would someone who cares so much about  privacy, with good reasons, gives his own surname to his internet top secret identity ?

Wouldn't make any sense.

Ths is why I believe the message is legit.

I'd like to believe that it is. If it was a hacked account why wouldn't they abuse it a little more and ask for donations?
