Sorry Dr. Craig Wright, I know you don't really want publicity.

So this is an interview (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5DCAC1j2HTY) from 2016 about a certain Craig Wright coming out as Satoshi Nakamoto, whether you believe him or not it is interesting to hear him speak about (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=74XhvbXx_pY)(1h lecture) about economy, money, banks and bitcoin.

Assuming for a moment he really is the inventor of Bitcoin it is quite interesting and understandable to see that people have completely misunderstood Bitcoin and it's purpose.

It seems like everyone in the comment section of that video are in agreement that this man is full of it.. It would be magical to actually know who Satoshi is, or who they are, but in a sense it may ruin the mysticism around the name. The way this guy acts in the interview is so inconsistent and strange, he seems squirmy to me.. At any rate I don't believe him in the slightest, and I doubt Satoshi would do a "Big reveal" on some small time BBC segment.

It's fun to play pretend or make believe, but no matter how hard I try I can't even fool myself into thinking he's the man behind the mask. It might be interesting if he has an old address, but claiming to be Satoshi takes away any glory/prestige that may have come with it.

We're never going to know who Satoshi is, and I'm more than happy for it to remain that way. It won't do us any good to know who s/t/he/y are. All we can do is be thankful for what they're developed and dropped in front of us like a benevolent time-traveler. If the BBC or Fox news announces they found Satoshi, just keep it moving, don't even pay them any mind..

Considering that he's been talking about BTC in many different public spaces and videos for ages, I doubt that he's trying to avoid publicity.
An important note about his claim to be satoshi:  he did not refuse to provide evidence that he was satoshi (which would make me think that he was not satoshi, but would not make me think that he was malicious) - he provided fake evidence and then never explained why.

For that reason, it's almost 100% certain that this man is not satoshi.

Satoshi never planned to hide his identity for a long time. However, he can still change his name whenever he wants to.

Never assume. Unless he signs a message with the private key holding Satoshi's Bitcoins then he cannot be verified as the true inventor of Bitcoin.

Looking at it from a psychological perspective, it does make you question how he can continue on with the lie. He might be one of two things.

1. He is a sociopath.
2. He is really Satoshi.

But if he cannot sign a message, then he remains a sociopath.

Is it a big deal if we all know who is the person behind satoshi nakamoto? I saw also other articles, telling that satoshi is a bunch of people who planned and implemented bitcoin. We will never identify satoshi anytime. For me, as long as I am earning in bitcoin. I will not waste my time just to know who he is exactly. I appreciate very well what he changed in our economy and we owe a great debt to his discovery.

I doubt that Satoshi will come back mate because he never use his really from the beginning of bitcoin which I think he did that for a purpose which is unclear to us all but clear to him.

It is stupid giving publicity to this guy. He is committing a crime saying he is Nakamoto. He is not. ANd he is using that to promote Bitcoin Cash.
I have never seen he doing something really remarkable to say he is a genius like I believe the Satoshi Nakamoto is. I would believe more if it was
Elon Musk :D

Yeah I agree that we have no concern with the Satoshi Nakamoto that who he is whether he is alone or group of people, our concern would be that to earn from it don’t find the technicalities in this innovation it is one of the best investment of all the time and see the world is now used to it and they don’t think much about Satoshi because they trust bitcoin. And our main concern should be to earn profit no to reveal myths.
