Why shouldn't we start a fund raiser to collect 50 BTC and offer it as bounty to whoever tracks and shoots this hacker?
Because that would be immoral, disproportionate and counter-productive.  Roll Eyes

Some troll hacker has claimed to have gained access to [email protected] (Satoshi Nakamoto's email account)
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/satoshingmxcom-is-compromised-775174

He is asking for 25 BTC donation in order to reveal Satoshi's true identity and other related info.

Excellent idea! And we'll have a user with ten posts or less act as the escrow agent.  Roll Eyes

This hacker even if they wanted that amount of BTC does not have any solid proof they have what he says he has and even if he does have it why would we want to know it? If this person truly has the details then why would they want to give the details away if they could cash out themselves and probably get more?

He probably doesn't have any info on Satoshi and if he does what does that have to do with us? He's just begging for donations. He could still release the info even if he got money anyway so it's pointless. Just let him have his five minutes of fun.

[Threatening to] Dox someone makes it okay to murder them?

Satoshi would be ashamed.

Because it's illegal, I'm pretty sure.

The more you talk about it the more he will continue to troll. All everyone has to do is ignore what's happening and move on.

Ignored such claimant. Probably scam! If the hacker finds the private key of Satoshin's bitcoin account, he will be silent and cash out the bitcoin to spend.
