Uhhhhh ..... you do know the whole "John Titor" thing is a joke, don't you? I'm sorry you took my comment seriously. I'll get the hang of emoticons one day, I promise.

I see what you did there...

I just wrote that as a joke, to get people to relax a bit about who or what Satoshi could or could not be.

I believe that it's best we respect Satoshi's wish to remain anonymous, being that anonymity is one of the protocol's notable features.

Thanks dude. Just thought this forum would benefit from people lightening up a bit. Every other post here is almost too serious and too dark. We need a bit of fun and fantasy with BTC's to make it approachable.

Lol. Yeah. I think another forum member was able to figure out who he is (or they are) using google, which was confirmed by the mods who asked him to keep quiet; the CIA aren't going to have much trouble finding someone at least as capable as randomforumguy.

But as we know, Satoshi is no threat to anyone now, he shot his load. The only scenario in which some government might want a word (killed? lmao noobs) is if he became a heroic symbol of the anti-statists who hang out here, such symbols can be crushed as a warning to others. Perhaps even worse than this is getting 1000 messages a day from the degraded sort that hang around here, asking for money, advice, sexual favours, press interviews. Nobody wants to arrive home to find their cat missing and see a ransom note demanding 'gazillions of bitcoins or kitty gets it.'

Since he is not a well known person one can't know who he is unless they know him personally. The only way to know who he is; is to find out what other new work he has done aside from bitcoin.

No, his real name is Edward M. Scheidt.

As if the NSA/CIA/FBI don't know exactly who he is...
Seal Team 6 could take him out in 48 hours...
And confiscate his pr0n collection.

Go on ... you seem intent on making an impression, let's hear what you got?

It's not hard to work out who drafted the white paper, what is less easy to understand is how many were on the team.

Edit: has anyone else got as far as I have?

So you're saying Satoshi is John Titor? That's not very helpful, you know.

Who is Satoshi Nakamoto?

In the year 2140 A.D., corporations and bankers ruled the world without mercy.  The masses were penniless and without hope. Death was the only liberation for every new-serf brought into that world.  "Decent" people never lived below the 60th floor.

Much to the disappointments of his ridiculing associates, a professor by the name of Satoshi secretly tolled for years envisioning a world that could have been different - one that was not so desperately dystopian, where the dreams of many were not robbed away by the greed of the few.  

Eventually, Satoshi had gained contact with underground rebel forces and a new resistance was forged.  They fought their way to the heavily guarded Nakamoto Industries, to find the rumored quantum-computer that ping messages back in time.  A template was backloaded to the year 2008, when 3D printing was still in its infancy -- where a 3D-printed clone of Satoshi emerged.

But moments before the clone could initiate the upload of his P2P currency exchange program, his unstable form disintegrated into dust.  A blinking cursor and an enter key was all which stood between two very different futures.

Satoshi (circa 2140) was arrested and submitted for execution without trial.  Staring down the barrels of death, a smile came over his face - one filled with such hopeful optimism not witnessed by mankind for over a 100 years.  Unsure of what to make of this, the 502's - the bankers' private gestapo unit - squeezed the triggers.

Suddenly, in a blink of an eye, the vanguards of fiat and stolen wealth faded out of existence.  These elites and their mega-structures crumbled under their own weight; they flew off into the wind... as irrelevant as footprints in the sands of time.  Perhaps by luck, The Resistance's plan succeeded -- someone pushed the enter key, causing a Ripple that changed the past and thus time itself.  

Man's darkest hours at the hands of bankers had been undone, his chains were finally shattered.  

The once regulated were now freed.

Satoshi had won.

heh. anything's possible, but i've never been a conspiracy theorist. in fact, i doubt this sort of disguise would occur to most younger people.

He may have been doing that just to throw you off, though. Unlike most ways of modifying your speech patters, that's very easy to do.

Each generation, each century and each millennia has its own Messiahs saving or elevating humanity.
Today the society is enslaved by the banking system, the Messiah of our time is the one who can liberate us.
Satoshi might be our Messiah.

Arent there supposed to be programs that now claim to be able to anaylse and detect with reasonable accuracy if a piece of content comes from the same person as another piece or not?

In other words, get hold of some written material from eg Max Keiser and other suspects, and put it through the program together with Satoshi's posts and see how they compare.

Wonder if this program is available somewhere on the web, either as a web based service or else as a downloadable install...

i just noticed something in reading satoshi's old posts on the cypherpunk mailing list: he uses two spaces after a full stop, not just one. i don't have hard data, but i believe this practice correlates strongly with age. that is, i suspect very few people younger than 35 have learnt to type that way.

Nup, I don't trust you cause I know a thing or two about this and you're off the mark  . Too narrow. There are a few colleges at both Oxford and Cambridge that could be considered ... could be US German French also if you are going to narrowly focus on math skills only. And after all that, maybe the math skills were self-taught and the other stuff was training?
