Reminds me of quote from Back to the Future... what Dave tells Linda...

“- Linda McFly: If Paul calls, tell him I'm working late at the boutique tonight.
- Dave McFly: Linda, first of all, I'm not your answering service; second of all, somebody named Greg or Craig called you just a little while ago.
- Linda McFly: Well, which one was it, Greg or Craig?
- Dave McFly: I don't know! I can't keep up of all of your boyfriends!”

 

It's not impossible, but I thought that through before commenting.

In this case I thought it better to blow it up immediately because it was significantly less credible than fakes used by Wright already and so I thought the odds of him attempting to use this one someplace meaningful (other than an effort to cause a quick BSV spike, which this might have been) was pretty low.

Satoshi did publish a PGP key but AFAIK he never signed any messages with it. It does not expire so theoretically he could come back and prove he's still around with it if he wanted to (though peeps would be rightly skeptical w/o additional proof).

Greg, that was probably Craig seeing if this was robust enough to publish.  You mentioned them testing the ground with stuff like this the other day

thank you

It's yet another fake.

Anyone can create a key with any name or email address they want on it.

Someone created a key here, they typed "[email protected]". It is not Satoshi's key, the name and email address are just entered by the user and not validated.

Then they signed a message that says "I created Bitcoin, I am Satoshi Nakamoto - Craig Wright" -- that's what the BEGIN PGP MESSAGE part decodes to.

Because they're incompetent with PGP or trying to be intentionally confusing they didn't use the clearsign option, so you have to decode the message to see the text being signed which is probably contributing to confusion. People think you need a key to decrypt it, you don't.


I'll do the same-- it only takes a moment (except I'll use the name Fakamoto). You can decode the message by running gpg -d and feeding in the "BEGIN PGP MESSAGE" block.

What is the point of this?
What does this possibly have to do with Craig Wright?

What does it say, and is there any online service that can verify this? What is the message anyways, and why is it so long? Lol I can't think of any possible method to crack that key.

What "if is correct"? Craig Wright is not Satoshi!

Where did you get that PGP public key?

Where did you get this information? Can you give me a link to where you found it? Because I couldn't find this information on the internet. And I would like to add that this e-mail does not belong to Satoshi Nakamoto. This has been written about many times.
