Dorian S. Nakamoto

Though Nakamato's identity was a source of speculation since the launch of Bitcoin in 2008, an article in the news magazine Newsweek by Leah McGrath Goodman, published March 6, 2014, made the case that his true identity was Dorian Prentice Satoshi Nakamoto (born 1949), a Japanese American man living in California.

Stop repeating posts about this guy please.... There is enough repetition in the forum already.

Well if everyone keep saying it then it must be real.

o my god, all can create information on this web encyclopedia, so if u wrote there i'm the master of world, will u believe it?

Why dont u join some other forum on the web to really value your time. This forum will keep talking on this topic and create new threads ...if u r irritated, then it is NOT your place.

It is not real.

Goebbels theory ? ;)

Wikipedia has declared a lot of things real , till the next edit :)

Well , the earth turned not to be flat , despite what everybody was saying.

Try to declare it on Wiki... first you'll get a warning and the post will be removed. If u dont listen, u'll be IP banned.

I can guarantee you the page will be at least semi-protected.  ;)

Such an article would be deleted, u must provide references that prove published info. So u r wrong when u say that "all can create information on this web encyclopedia".

Heresy  :D

True. Wikipedia has been proven to be more accurate than Encyclopædia Britannica.

LOL

we are satoshi  :P


and yes i think its fake. where is the prove?

So you are satoshi???

It is true that Newsweek made that case.  It is not necessarily given that the case is correct.  Wikipedia is just factually reporting, here.

That's a clear example how you should treat information like this , even when coming from wikipedia.

The problem is the words "though" and "was".  This would be factual:

Satoshi Nakamoto's identity has been an ongoing source of speculation since the launch of Bitcoin in 2008.  An article in the news magazine Newsweek by Leah McGrath Goodman, published March 6, 2014, made the case that his true identity was Dorian Prentice Satoshi Nakamoto (born 1949), a Japanese American man living in California.

Wikipedia is on fire (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Satoshi_Nakamoto&action=history) :D.

Oh Man !!! Now they'll lock the topic ???

What do you mean?

+1.  OP fails reading.

Its him you conspiracy theory nut cases... wtf? anyone know his user name on the forum?   

Too much of activity on a certain topic leads to lock topic. I experienced it after Laden's death.

If it's on the internet, it's true. Period.

Oh you mean protect article  ;). They won't full protect it (meaning only admins can edit) unless there is an edit war/vandalism between accounts that can edit through semi-protected pages... usually. And they won't semi-protect it unless there is lots of vandalism or edit wars.

They will, however, aggressively enforce the Biographies of Living Persons [WP:BLP (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Biographies_of_living_persons)] policy on it.  This is especially the case considering it involves disclosure of (potential) facts that would tend to bring down heat on someone who may not even be the person in question.

Thats what Goebbels used to say.

wikipedia is not factual. its community filled.

any loser in their basement can write anything. give it a few hours once everyone has calmed down and realised the reporter is spreading fud. the wiki article will be edited.

forbes has already removed their article as they realised its fud

Wikipedia also claims Obama born in Hawaii, when we all know its really Kenya.

That being said, i think it really is Satoshi unless/until he publicly denies it.

Really? So if someone publicly announces you are insane, when in fact you're not, it's up to you to make public statement to deny it? What if he doen't care what idiots from newsweek say?

I claim that this is not true, therefore I'm Satoshi.

It is never not real unless it isn't then it is kinda sorta.

If he doesn't care, he doesn't care.  But he might want to care because a lot of people will think he is Satoshi because the main stream media still influences public opinion (same reason people still believe Obama was born in Hawaii :) ) ...and if a lot of people think he's Satoshi, they'll try to get his coins, and it puts him and his family in danger.

I guess this post needs to be included in Wikipedia as counter argument...

Well it's on the inter-webs then it must be true right? NO GOD DAMNIT. And why are you people so obsess about Satoshi's real identity? Leave the guy/girl/group alone, they have done enough for the community. Will revealing the creator of Bitcoin do any good? I'm sure a couple of retards will blame things like the Gox incident or any other disasters in the system on him/her/them if we know who he/she is / they are so we're better off leaving this a mystery.

And so it beginns.

Soon Dorian Prentice Satoshi Nakamoto will be Bitcoins Satoshi just because so many citications proof it.  :P

I guess there are more people named Satoshi Nakamoto in real live, will be interested to hear their stories as well. Unless they prove signing message to one of the early addresses, they dont convince me though they are the actual Satoshi Nakamoto behind Bitcoin

Now they have made a separate section for Dorian Nakamoto !!!

Wikipedia's threshold for inclusion is "verifiability (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:V)", not truth. "Verifiability" means "reliable sources" which means mainstream media, which Newsweek is. Hence, according to Wikipedia's not-prominently-displayed policies, the Dorian story should indeed be included and stated as fact or "almost fact".

Wikipedia makes no truth-value judgment, which is why it is effectively another arm/tool of the control system, just like the mainstream media.

That man's reputation is damaged beyond repair (inc. privacy).

That Man is brilliant enough to handle his reputation ...probably more than Jimmy Wales.

Yes, he'll forever be remembered as a brilliant mathematician who singlehandedly created some of the most important software of the 21st century - his reputation is just ruined

Somewhere in the world, there's a little girl named Virginia with a confused look on her face.

I am Satoshi

Yeah everything on the internet is true and real!
/s

I give up!  ::)

I don't see Wikipedia declaring anything in that article all I see is that they are referring to that story from Leah McGrath Goodman .
Declaration of speculation ..! thats new..

http://www.cnbc.com/id/101474673



Ergo, according to CNBC, ~3.3 = 5.

Wikipedia only stated that Newsweek MADE THE CASE THAT..

You fail at reading comprehension, go the fuck back to elementary school, you do not deserve to post on an internet forum.

Cool!!! but iam tiered  of seeing posts about this with a picture of a Chinese man standing in a open land which i believe is bullshit !!

Chinese man
Japanese man

Look at the wikipedia page history. OP read it right. U r mistaken. Now the content is changed on the main page... but it was actually written.

Please tell me that you know at least that anyone can writte that on wikipedia, and can add sources from the shitstorm of medias that posted about, and it doesn't make any real. Leave the poor guy alone and stop posting things about Dorian, he already suffered enough.

Dorian is NOT a poor guy ;)

Probably that was the only way to make him confess:)))))
