Title: Satoshi Nakamoto: The Next 24 Hours Post by: Phinnaeus Gage on January 13, 2012, 07:43:48 PM Is it possible that the mathematician we know as Satoshi Nakamoto can be found here: http://genealogy.math.ndsu.nodak.edu/
And if so, I think the real identity can be gleaned in less than 24 hours. I've narrowed the list down to 114 candidates by searching the keyword 'cryptography' generating the results shown here: http://genealogy.math.ndsu.nodak.edu/results.php? A new list can be created if one searches a different keyword or phrase here: http://genealogy.math.ndsu.nodak.edu/search.php The list can easily be whittled down by eliminating names of women, if that's a safe assumption. The idea is that somebody here may recognize a name, thus putting two and two together--connecting the dots, if you will. Even if this proves to be a dead end, I believe something could come out of the use of this site. It's the first time I've encountered it and find it rather fascinating. ~Bruno~ Whittling the list: 2009 Graduates in Pink Quote Your search has found 114 records in our database.

If a government shuts it down, all money from the mtgox.com wallet is lost forever, both "virtual" BTC and "real" US dollars and Euro.

Quote Kurt Huang is co-founder, president, and chief product officer of BitPass. He has a Computer Science degree from Harvard and an MD from Stanford. Named to the 2004 list of the world's 100 Top Young Innovators by MIT's Technology Review magazine.

We present a model with two types of private electronic currencies with one being local, and the other being global. Both of them display transactional advantages and dominate fiat money in rate of return. However, in spite of these different returns, the two electronic currencies and fiat money circulate in equilibrium. We further observe that the local electronic currency can be sold with a premium or with a discount, depending on several factors including the probability of relocation faced by the agents in this economy. The higher the probability of relocation, the higher is this discount, and the lower the share of the local electronic currency in the young creditors’ portfolio. Quote In this paper, we focus our attention on some particular aspects of the micropayment system, i.e.: the Internet payments system for the micro-products market. As of today, we do observe three different niches in this market. In the first niche, the sellers are packaging their micro-products in the form of subscriptions, thus increasing the value of individual transactions, so that electronic equivalents of fiat money can be used as media of exchange. In the second niche, we find micro-payment companies playing the role of intermediaries between sellers and buyers; they operate in very different ways. For example, BitPass requires consumers to open and transfer money to an account; the credit card fee is hence only charged to this single transaction of funding the account; as consumers with accounts buy micro-products, merchants need to pay 15% of the value of each transaction to the Micropayment intermediaries, i.e. BitPass in our example. Maybe all a dead end, but it'll get you a thinkin'! http://www.giiresearch.com/report/mag210198-solving-micropayments-problem-minimizing-impact.html Quote Companies mentioned in this report include: Amazon, Visa, MasterCard, American Express, Discover, Apple, PaymentOne, Zong, eBay, Microsoft, Facebook, Wall Street Journal, New York Times, PayPal, Starbucks, Google, Napster, Rhapsody, Netflix, DigiCash, CyberCash, ESPN, Playboy, First Virtual Holdings, Beenz, Flooz, IBM, Compaq, Digital Equipment Corporation, Peppercoin, Chockstone, BitPass, Clickandbuy, Zynga, OMGPOP, Boku, Electronic Arts, Aeria Games, Playdom, Zoosk, Flattr, Square, Twitter, BitCoin, Electronic Frontier Foundation, Mazooma, and Dwolla. I just uploaded pdf and KeyNote versions of the talk I gave at the CIA last Tuesday: https://s3.amazonaws.com/gavinandresen-bitcoin/GavinAndresenCIATalk.pdf https://s3.amazonaws.com/gavinandresen-bitcoin/GavinAndresen_Bitcoin.key I took questions in the middle, before I dove into the technical details. I was asked about whether or not I thought price instability would be a problem ("yes, I'll talk about that later") and how/why I got involved. Later, at the panel discussion, I was asked a question that showed I need to do a better job of distinguishing bitcoin addresses and IP addresses. And I was asked if there were moral issues, since bitcoin can be used by criminals ("I'm working on bitcoin because I think the potential benefits to the world are much, much greater than the costs.") The other speakers were from PayPal, Facebook Payments, M-Pesa, Heartland Payment Systems, and the Federal Reserve, so it was worth going just for the connections. Bitcoin is definitely the new kid on the block, and I presented it as such; not "bitcoin will take over the world" but "bitcoin is a very interesting experiment that could be world-changing if it works out." And now... there is plenty of work to be done, so I'm going to stop reminiscing about the good old days last week.... Heartland Payment Systems purchased Chockstone which purchased Peppercoin.

I can answer that in four words: Human Nature. The same could be asked as to why people need to prove that Jesus exist, when all he supposedly did was good for the human race.

This is my first useful post in over 150 posts! :D Here are the Unix timestamps of all of Satoshi's posts, if you want to analyze them: https://bitcointalk.org/satoshitimes.txt https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=75704.0;topicseen Who happens to own this address?

If we can link the sent to/recieved from addresses to a deposit based site that doesn't dedicate you a wallet(like bitmit or glbse)we can contact that site and see the account the deposited/withdrew to/from that address. Site operators that use systems like bitmit and glbse, are any of the addresses in that wallets history yours? Hurrah for being useful!
