after Craig Wright drama
now John McAfee said, he has spoken with Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto and plans to reveal the person’s identity.
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2019-04-23/john-mcafee-vows-to-unmask-crypto-s-satoshi-nakamoto-within-days

do you believe with John McAfee, if he already know who is the real Satoshi Nakamoto ?

This guy always come in f with this his know Nd of news  I stopped following after he endorsed electroneum andveven some fake ICO ‘ s now these ico investors are suffering by believing him . I don’t believe this guys words.

It just a drama and don't take it seriously because no one know can claim if he or she already know about the real identity of the satoshi nakamoto.

a very bold statement made by MCafee, I don't believe at all if Satoshi Nakamoto will reveal his identity, it's not fundamental for Mcafee to say and threaten like that, it's like a drama in his own name and no reality in the drama he make it

I don't get you, are you saying electroneum is fake? Moreover all investors make profits from etn ICO because the ICO price was 0.01 and etn did make it to 0.2 last bull run so what are you talking about? Apart from the ICO gain electroneum stands out among other altcoins, they are delivering at best, no bullshit, another altcoins John promote is Apollo currency, these altcoins are good, do better research mister

Let me tell you my perspective on this. It is time to stop all drama on who are real Satoshi Nakamoto, no matter what drama started by anyone else, it does not a real matter at all. The main reason is why Satoshi Nakamoto, whom dissapeared years ago, have to reappear again? Which kinds of reason can force him to appear again? If you can tell me reasons for his / her/ their potential re-appearance, we can discuss more about it. If you can not do it (with reasonable things), the dicussion should be stopped here, and the topic should be locked.
Personally, I think we should leave Satoshi is only Satoshi Nakamoto, no more or less. If you are a big fan of Satoshi Nakamoto, why not wearing this signature? https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5092492.msg49024563#msg49024563

no i don't believe with this guy,
because nobody has spoken to satoshi nakamoto in the last few years,
as i know satoshi nakamoto was disapears few months after he created bitcoin mate, correct me if i'm wrong

A big Drama for this one and of course we both know these, a great supporter of cryptocurrency and bitcoin.  :D
Don’t believe on both of this because we know their history, the one who always talkshit about bitcoin and even endorse a fake ICO, and the one who claim himself as a Satoshi, not worthy of time reading the article. Unfollowing both of these are worth it, try it now.

What happens if he reveals Satoshi's identity? What will be his gain? This is why I always say envy dwells richly in this space. It starts right from the top.

Dude is just trying to stay relevant and divert the attention from his overly optimistic "1 mil BTC in 2020" prognosis. I find him quite entertaining, but I get it why people are annoyed by him and perceive him as a cancer of the community.

John McAfee ? almost all the news about it and all the news about the crypto currency of John McAfee often shot up and in fact was far from what he predicted.  >:(
this is only the drama he made to influence the price of bitcoin and other crypto currencies.

That guy was creating another joke and you should not believe that guy. remember mcafee was always shilling for ico in the past few years and he always spread crap news. Mcafee is such a big liar that should not be trusted by everyone right now.

Is there any believer to McAfee? He already proved that he untrustable is. I never read or listen his announcement anymore.

Everyone know Jhon McAfee, I don't believe everything he says. He always make hype on crypto. I think no one believe in this news.

This is quite a few day old news where i do read up this Troll McAfee saying foolish things once again.No one would ever believe into these claims and
inspite on saying bullshit things it would be much better if he do just sit and shut up his mouth and not saying anything about his over or exagerrated insights
and impossible claims towards crypto market and even tagging up with Satoshi. Only fool would just believe on him 100%.

He's just a boom, if you try to find out about John McAfee's biography, you'll find that he's not good. He represents very poor quality ICOs, he generally does these things for money, not for the crypto community. I think he doesn't know anything about Satoshi Nakamoto, he's just doing something to be noticed, that's silly.

Please let Satoshi Nakamoto be quiet, don't use his identity to create unnecessary arguments!

Yes it is another drama; McCafée is merely joking and prancing with his followers and also Craig
Maybe am expensive jokes

But McCafée is know for hypes; the necessary and the wrong hypes
I can’t forget his prediction for docademic token that went awol

And why not?) Maybe he wants to stretch the low-level project again and attracts more attention to himself. Last time I am not very interested in such news.

take a look at John McAfee's history, he has been seeking attention for a very long time and he has been using anything he can to gain that attention so that he can make money of that attention. with this little statement he has gained a huge attention that he has been failing to gain for months. now he is just milking that attention as much as he can. he has no more information about SN than you and I have.

by the way this is bitcoin discussion and not altcoin so you are posting in wrong board.
there are also multiple topics discussing this already in the respective boards!

I guess that's another pretty joke, McAfee can be like that some times, though McAfee is good when it comes to handling and managing new project but I can surely say he is joking with this.

Yes, this guy can't be trusted. I watched his activity in cryptocurrency for a very long time. Now I'm not interested, I just do not pay attention to him.

No, I will never believe on this guy, he exposed himself in the past and his reputation is bad now.

I loss my respect for guy who loves to hype coins that lead to FOMO, I know those who invested around 2016 or 2017 knows what McAfee has done.

It will be an epic drama because in these few days i have been read his statements through my local news sites that he was spoken to nakamoto and he says nakamoto really exist and alive even he says too he would expose Nakamoto within a week although i totally not believe him but i was curious how far this drama will continue

He wants attention and in able to get that, he should cry out for something interesting. And we are all interested to know who satoshi is, he may know or not but I will only believe him if he has valid proof/s to show.

Why recently there is some news about Satoshi Nakamoto? Is there any objective of revealing who exactly Satoshi is? So far, we are curious about it but it doesn't mean that we need to talk more about it. we know that Satoshi hides himself/itself and we must know that he/it has certain hidden secret and factors why not revealing and showing to the world.
Personally, it is hard to believe when someone stated that he is Satoshi or it is also hard to believe that someone knows exactly who Satoshi is.
As here, the news about John McAfee vows to unmask crypto’s Satoshi Nakamoto, personally, I don't believe much about it.
In that case and what's for this aim to?
We should only thank Satoshi because of him or it, a crypto world born and existed.

Nope, John does not excite me anymore, the only way he can excite me is when I watch how he eat his dick on national tv, of course, it should be roasted, of all the people why he choose to speak with Mcafee knowing he contributed a lot of mess in the ICO by promoting known scam coin.

I think he don't know who is Satoshi and make this just for advertising and to be more known and more people read this news, he always say things that not happen.

Craig Wright is suing podcaster broadcasting a news regarding to him being not a true Satoshi Nakamoto, this two gentleman should talk in order to favor each other's claimed, we should not entertained any news about them and allow things to move the same with how we recognized Satoshi inside our minds, nonetheless, leave everything and continue our own quest to success.

Neither do I and many of us here, he now talks about the outrageous thing in the community because this is the only way he can get attention from us after so many failed ICO that he promoted, I will not be surprised if he tells us that Satoshi is a woman and he is her boyfriend. :D

Like everyone is telling that they know satoshi, i can also tell that Theymos is the operator of this forum and he got rights from satoshi so then he should be knowing who is satoshi, so it can also be that he is the satoshi hiding behind the name of theymos.

So their is no end of the story who is satoshi until who can claim the private keys of the satoshi wallets and sign message from it. Till then this drama will be going on.

Well I think this is just another drama besides I don't really think that he knows who is /are the person behind the name Satoshi Nakamoto.
Why would he have to wait for this long before he reveals it ?
This is just another attention seeking post .

Of course it is. Mcafee is just a drugged up village idiot who has no idea what he is saying and he is just trying to get attention from people to stay relevant because he knows if he shuts up and doesn't talk nobody will talk about him very soon so he has to keep reminding people he is alive and he is still there to get more attention and in return more money as well.

Bill Gates doesn't have to remind everyone he exists, everyone knows he is there so its not like that for Mcafee. Craig Wright at least is a smart person who is evil and trying to make due with what he has and trying to turn the tides for him and make more profits but his evilness comes from his brain at least, Mcafee is not like that, he could be smarter than the average person but he looks like a toddler compared to people who actually know what they are doing.

I like Jhon McAfee and he always makes everyone who had an investment still comfortable although we has passed many procces especially something that came in 2018 till now. There are many statement that he gave so far, such as the price bitcoin will hit $1.000.000 at 2020 if the price doesn't hit it then will do a terrible thing even though I don't trust him. Another statement that he made recently has made me think he got stressed, because he has made many people will make leave him and even will assume that he has mental disorders. I don't believe anyone who say that he is a sotoshi or he knows satoshi is.

This guys is a pretty wired person. I would not trust McAfee, because I remember his twitter hit parade of his beloved coins. I am pretty sure he was paid for saying about each and every of those to spread the fud.

Just read the article, he really doesn't know Satoshi, he is trying to get the public attention. He has said he won't reveal Satoshi's identity for now, in other not to affect his extradition to the USA, from his statement, he maybe suspect the USA government is backing and concealing Satoshi's identity. Why will the government be protecting that which they have no control over? John McAfee is a dramatics.

we have not yet known the original figure of Satoshi Nakamoto and John McAfee he is someone who is very well known in the cryptocurrency so that it is used as a reference, of course all do not have to believe. in my opinion this is a touch of news to make positive and negative effects on the market whether bitcoin or altcoin.

I doubt that these people know the Creator of bitcoin , and indeed doubt that anyone knows it , can only units , and these 2 people just want to earn no more

It seems to me that the real names of people hiding under the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto knows not only John McAfee. He, once again, decided to draw attention to his person by this statement. But I am convinced that he is one of those who know the true names.

Just like you said it's another drama after Craig Wright billed his. So now let's watch and see if John McAfee's drama will draw attention.  Everyone wants to be the Satoshi,  maybe the real Satoshi is theymos

In my opinion, Satoshi Nakamoto's identity nobody knows, John McAfee is just making up, what influence they often make inaccurate news.

I've read a few articles that tried to find who is Satoshi Nakamoto, in book Satoshi wrote that made a few mistakes in the beginning, due to which there are circumstantial evidence pointing to a few people, but 100% no one was sure. I think John McAfee might have a piece of the puzzle that allows him to get closer, but how close ?

Satoshi Nakamoto is the unknown person for the crypto related people and there are no enough skills to discover the real Satoshi Nakamoto. The drama will end when real Satoshi will reveal his secrets related to the Bitcoin.

This statement John McAfee attracts attention to himself and so he gains popularity points. But I don't rule out the possibility that he actually might know who is Satoshi Nakamoto. I believe that Bitcoin is a global project of the government of one of the most influential countries in the world. It is impossible to create such a project alone.

He isn't sure about what he has and this will become another Dorian Nakamoto hunt. They will involve some random people and possibly destroy their lives just to prove a point and get some press coverage. McAfee was supposed to be a libertarian and he's literally doxing Satoshi right now and threatening him. He's an asshole!

No I don't really believe in what McAfee said. He already did this in the past years. Now he is just regaining that popularity because he did lay low last year. If he knew satoshi, Then he should be now 2nd richest man holding bitcoin. Because for sure Nakamoto will do everything to keep him shut.

The fact that Satoshi Nakamoto wishes to still remain incognito after all this years, I think he must have had his own reasons for that. Though in my opinion I think it would be a lot better if the real Satoshi Nakamoto could unveiled himself.

I still don't really believe if there is no strong evidence that can convince me, that John McAfee knows Satoshi Nakamoto, so I will wait for more news and try to conclude how it really is.
but in my opinion it's not impossible if it's really real.

The funny thing about John Mcafee is that he thinks he still possess the influence he used to have, remember when he was using his influence in the space to pump and dump some tokens early last year, believe me if Mcafee do know who Satoshi by now, he would have revealed the name(s). To me he is just looking for attention

He seeks the attention for his own entertainment. Why could he not speak up the last time the whole world was searching. no drama here just entertainment.

I recommend everyone not to follow these clowns. They are bullshit and are ready to do and say anything for money. They will call their mother somehow just to get more attention.

I wouldn't like to believe McAfee post about identity of satoshi. I am suspecting that he is just trying to create FOMO in order to raise bitcoin price. We can see most of his previous predictions was wrong. It would be misguide investors and holders. I don't think he has been waiting to expose satoshi's identity if really he knew about him. This is just new drama. And I don't like to fall in this drama. I would like to follow bitcoin trend rather than FOMO.

After claiming that satoshi is some group of indian guys, he said that he no longer plans to reveal who satoshi is becausr he is now afraid of a lawsuit. He probably forgot that he's also running away from a lawsuit.  ???

in my opinion, there is a campaign element because what I know is that he is nominating as a presidential candidate, maybe with the news he is about to deliver, it can raise his name a little, but that is just my guess, he might know Satoshi

the message with news on bitcoin inventor might have with chains on collateration as the use with early of terms on schemes with business on online field of finance as might with the distinctive on identification to helps as widening distance on shifts with the two of amongst with issues on displacement.

I think these guys are just trying to seek the attention of the public with bogus claims...I'm 100% sure Craig Wright's isn't satoshi nakamoto.. but I can't say about mcafee

I also think so like you. There is no way to attract the attention of the crowd without saying abnormal arguments against their beliefs. These guys are successfully claiming and playing with these red lines.

that person always makes sensations, so I don't believe him. Satoshi will never show his form publicly, he will still choose anonymously because that is how it should be. so don't believe what Mcafee said

I think this is drama, you know mcAfee like this. he was only looking for sensations, and for this reason I did not believe him. knowing this satoshi is impossible, why satoshi wants to talk to him. there are many people in this world why he chose it. isn't this strange.

I believe that McAfee supports BTC and crypto, but about satoshi I don't trust anyone. including McAfee. I did not find a real reason when he said that. so. it's just a bullshit for me. the public needs proof, not just talking and theory.

everyone certainly wouldn't believe what McAfee had said about his finding Shatosi Nakamoto, of course it was just a drama. but the statement he issued was true, too, if the Shatosi Nakamoto was dead there was no way the coins he had created could enter the market

this a drama well satoshi disappeared and from a variety of news many claim to be himself LoL and there was also a statement that he had been captured and gone ,it was not true the origin of satoshi nakamoto no one knew this a secret so on ,unless we saw a transaction from him wallet yeah accompanied by a sign message we are believe

How big are the eyes and ears that have seen and heard this kind of news and it turns out that drama really has a high selling power for all markets in the world, therefore to increase the market or decrease the market there are 2 possibilities that will occur according to other news, for all who are here, it is not too easy to trust someone in any condition because everything here is for profit and is played by many people or big companies.

The only real proof is to have satoshi sign into his bitcoin related accounts on various websites and this forum then
the crypto community could compare his recent posts to satoshi's old posts.   His values will be compared too... altleast we know what satoshi likes and doesn't like.
Another important proof is the signing of his bitcoin address.
In my opinion, these are the most important proofs to determine if he's satoshi :
1. Signing into his accounts
2. Comparing the new posts with his old posts
3. Comparing the new principles with his old principles

Obviously, not. McAfee has making it's way to again make a noise in crypto industry by claiming he knew who Satoshi Nakamoto is. But who'll gonna believe this guy? For we all know that he is just putting all the drama and just an attention seeker. The more he reads such news about him, the more he gets happy knowing that he is now the talk of the town.

You are claiming that electroneum stood out amongst all altcoins, from what angle are you judging from? Because the price grew from 0.01 to 0.02 means they are successful? You cannot qualify their success by the value, the product they are offering to the public is exactly what we are after, and I don’t see how they have met up in regards to this.

Most of the prices you are seeing are just being simply pumped by these images like Mcafee because of their own personal interest and not because their services or product spoke for them. Take these people out of these projects being promoted by them, and then they will end up being a shitcoins. See what is becoming of BSV now.

He enjoyed this attentions, people like him always finding ways to make a scene inside of this industry, we all knew back then when he's promoting
alts and enjoyed how people follow his tweets, now, another new claimed regarding to Nakamoto's identity, he can do whatever he wants and speak
freely about this but for sure interest will not be the same.

It is another drama for John McAfee, I don't believe this guy since he predicted that bitcoin could reach $1 million in year 2020, he just want to be famous again, It's better to not reveal the real Satoshi Nakamoto because it is risky for him if he is still alive.

I don't believe any one of them after many pumps and dumps and his failed promise, he was slow down and now start act like he is one of the leaders of crypto I don't believe not Craig, not Maccafe just want to make money on this be in trend nothing more both of them  BSVH is shit really shit for which transaction must wait for hours.

John McAfee has a very controversial reputation in the crypto community. Many times he advertised fraudulent projects, and made strong predictions that are more similar to imagination of a lonely old man. I don't believe he knows who the real Satoshi Nakamoto is, and yet another refusal to reveal his identity has only reinforced my assumptions.

John McCaffie made a lot of sensational statements lately, and I do not rule out the possibility that after some period of time he will declare himself Satoshi Nakamoto.

Mcafee is making huge profit out of such bold shout-outs and price prediction.

Take all his statement witch some reserve. He has his public that believes his every statement and making huge money out of this. He found himself good business.

it can be true. but McAfee is an antagonist who just seek popularity from the satoshi figure. he just looked for the stage so that the business he was working on was more widely known. only federal agents that I think know the true satoshi figure. let the satoshi figure always be a mystery, maybe that's what satoshi planned from the very beginning BTC  design. Satoshi didn't need popularity because he was already rich.

apparently I think we will be seeing many of this drama now. I am not surprised that after  the Craig Wrights drama, that there will be many of it coming so let's watch John McAfees drama and have fun

Either John McAfee needs attention or he gets paid to claim he knows Satoshi. Something else is not behind this story, in my opinion. It's, like you say, just drama again and nothing more. Maybe the drama ends with John McAfee saying Craig Wright's is Satoshi.  ::)

i never think about that mate, maybe you are right,,  :D if Mr. John will say Craig wright is the real satoshi,,
and thats will be not the end of this drama, but the new drama will be show up my friend

In crypto, you should not believe the words (including mine ;D). There are many examples of this. Even those like John McAfee who make money with their words.

Even if it's true I think it will be better of satoshi real identity stays hidden or else it might take unexpected turn for cryptocurrency in general, just my own point of view,i don't know why some one like John will even mention this even if he knows the real satoshi

As a crypto currency player who prioritizes wisdom and professionalism, I always think positively. Maybe this isn't another drama. Maybe this is true that John McAfee really met Satoshi Nakamoto (creator of bitcoin) to talk about the future of crypto currencies. Indeed the role of people who experience and professional in crypto currencies such as Satoshi Nakamoto and John McAfee is very necessary to conduct discussions so that the crypto currency condition is getting better and more stable. Restoring crypto currency trust needs to be done collaboratively so I am sure that the meeting between the two is not just to reveal identity but rather to talk about the future of crypto currencies.

Lol, all these drama just to force the real satoshi out, these guys are just creating this drama to really know the real satoshi, they thought they could frustrate him into revealing his identity? I guess they are just wasting their time and no one will really believe anything they say that much.

We have known these two people to be crazy businessmen and would do anything to create scene that would give them attention because of their products, well, I really don’t see how this their marketing strategy would get people to buy into their product idea, they should doing what they are doing, I am just so glad that they are giving Bitcoin the popularity it deserve.

Just this guy once again wanted everyone to talk about him. About him, all a little forgotten here begins another wave of dubious sensations. To believe him is to deceive yourself.

This is just another drama and i dont believe what this guy said.
Satoshi Nakamoto still unknown and how does he knew who is it?
If the creator of bitcoin want to be identified, he made it before.

This type of aliases looks like a science fiction so there is no valid equation that leads to a set of solutions $$$ :'(

I doubt that he posses such knowledge so whatever he says is irrelevant to me, however you ask what could be his gain? And that is easy to know, there are people that love being in the spotlight and want to be the center of attention all the time, it is obvious that his prediction about bitcoin reaching 1 million dollars in 2020 will not become true and he is trying to stay relevant by saying that he knows the identity of satoshi when it is clear that if he knew that information he should have revealed it a long time ago.

I don't really believe him and I think the guy is also trying to stage his own drama. If he truly knows him, he won't up till now to reveal his identity. We don't even want to know who is he, so they should free us from all this unnecessary stage managed drama.

Yes, a drama indeed. I am skeptic about his statement : "Finding Satoshi is a piece of cake".
If it was piece of cake, then why he didn't say it sooner before Craig Wright said he is Satoshi ?
last year McAfee was predicting some coin price, and his prediction was off, so i won't believe him.

Ahhh this guy John McAfee, lmao. I never this person anymore man, he's promote ico back then because of the project pay him the money because of that i never him again. He's really shaddy and only do things because of money, never trust this guy anymore until now.

well, personally i believe if somebody know who is satoshi nakamoto, but not John McAfee, i don't believe him
but, in my opinion people who know the real satoshi will never talk to the public about satoshi
he or she will stay quite, to keep this bitcoin and cryptocurrency growing with democratic system,, just my opinion  ;)

We should be tired about that character reveal drama anymore because it really doesn't help the cryptocurrency community to even grow bigger. We are just going to waste our time when we always consider that, craig wright and mcafee thing on the mainstream. I think we should better focus on making investment .

I do not believe in the news and in what John McAfee has said about Satoshi Nakamoto. The market has always had speculations regarding everything ranging from price of coins. Another speculation is making the round of finding out who Satoshi Nakamoto and revealing him to the public. But unfortunately, many people are used to such speculations and start disbelieving in them. If Nakamoto would have any intention to go public, he would have done it years ago as establishment of bitcoin has marked its 10 years.

You should not pay attention to this person at all, he is trying to draw attention to himself, it is unclear why he is doing this because he has made an incredible amount of money for himself and what he wants to achieve is incomprehensible, probably just the attention of other people to him is very important.

It’s by been long we heard from John after making so many predictions and calls that didn’t go well and a lot of people got hooked. If truly anyone knew the real identity of who Satoshi is , everyone would v known by now because it’s what we all want to know. This is just a form of attention seeking.

I dont believe John McAfee knew who satoshi is because as far i know he involve in bitcoin or crypto after satoshi hide his identity. If satoshi reveal his identity, why have to McAfee not to bloomberg, its more sensational if he reveal it to bloomberg because more wide coverage

I don't care if they know Satoshi or not. What's important is that Bitcoin will remain and continue to give hope to people who invest in it.

I don't expect you to be surprised. To be honest because you should know that at a point of Bitcoin existence such drama will come as many would love to be the mysterious Satoshi

Yeah, that is true. When John McAfee says something like this, a new and big drama starts. I'm really excited to see how this all ends and if there ever will be an end.  :D ;)

John McAfee with al his gimmicks. I see this as another means to seek attention.
Like every other person,  feel he is also in search of ho Satoshi Nakamoto is. The only way he will be able to find him is if he is ready to reveal his identity by himself and i think this should come alongside with lots of proof.

They are just making hype around themselves nothing more. I truly do not understand what would happen after Satoshi reveals his or her own identity. I have big doubts about the idea that this thing is going to make an influence on the whole market in general.

I guess its related to this topic.

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5135983.0

I doubt that the statent is true since there are numerous people who claim to have met with the crypto legend and doesnt prove it a hundred percent. It is maybe a propaganda or even a marketing because if this will become trending, a lot of people will get curioused about crypto and the legal currency for all will be possible. Lets all find it after.

In one his recent tweet, I have seen he is claiming to know the real Satoshi. However, it seems funny to me. He is still the same stupid as he was back in the day. I would not trust him for a single word. He is a crazy man trying to get attention from people.

He is back to shill some half-baked obscure projects as well, so I guess he is running out of doe and is back for a nice pay day. Too bad (for him) that people have learned their lesson back in the 2017 and are not listening to him anymore.

that was a joke, don't be serious about that, if we know who is actually satoshi nakamoto, what's wrong?, He must be YAKUZA on digital asset.

Yes, if satoshi has decided to remain unknown, I believe people that know him will never disclose his identity, and bet me, and satoshi is even too smart to even reveal to his friends that he is satoshi.

He must have gotten a framework before inventing bitcoin and in his framework, there will also be a personal decision not to let anyone know of his intention to create such program except the people that might be working with him, and I don’t think he has betrayed anyone for him to be threatened, so all these Mcafee are just looking for ways to grab more attention to their own product.

We all knew that intentions, there's nothing new about that he wanted more exposures and he need to create another idea in order to get what he wants, we don't need to believe or even mind whatever he wanted to say, better to stay far from this guy.

Is pure drama buddy, We all know how JM loves to get the media attention, and what better way to do it then using a controversial name as Satoshi Nakamoto. JM is on the trip, how media can listen to him while he is high as hell, lol.

I think McAfee just does not have enough attention and noise around his name! As soon as they begin to forget about him, he reappears with loud statements, disturbing the public. Although who knows, what if, a small but a chance remains)

It's no need to take home seriously. He likely considers himself as the most understand person about crypto. That means, he is not different to people like Craig and other Faketoshi. No difference!

I believe they are all trying to show off and get more subscribers to their social accounts. That's all! We don't need this kind of people in our community! Get off!

Is there anyone that still takes this guy seriously, ever since I joined his pump and dump group where I lost a lot of funds and yet he kept saying that we are making 100% gain, I stop to take anything he says seriously because I believe he is a physico and he is losing it, so I don't see why anyone should take him seriously anymore, all he is looking for is to maintain the fame he has gotten for himself and if we take him seriously he would be able to maintain this, let's prove him wrong.

John McAfee cannot influence the market anymore, Craig Wright was a more serious influencer to the market than McAfee , so CZ decision was just right.

John Mcafee is a very smart guy but he likes to troll around a lot and is addicted to garnering attention to himself,

so all of his tabloid claims should be considered with a lot of reservations...

This is the best joke I ever heard hahaha, this guy always is coming with such a bomb news probably just to get more attention... of course is just a drama and the people who are a bit informed will never believe this...

I'm not sure this news is true
and if this is true I think there are other plans behind the scenario that raises the satamoto sathosi side. this is ridiculous

from the beginning I did not understand and agree with the steps taken by John McAfee.
so I agreed this was just drama

I think it's just like a joke. We should not be attention that statement. Because we cannot believe that person who disheart the investors.

It's too obvious that it's just another drama created by Mcafee.
Satoshi Nakamoto has never revealed his real identity and there are really lots of people who are claiming to be Satoshi because of their own interests. I guess the best thing to do is just to ignore this kind of issue and drama.

I think it's complete nonsense. And John McAfee discriminated against himself very much. Satoshi is a very clever man if he be the father of the entire crypto industry. I don't think such a person wants to be exposed. Because there will be a question of his own safety. Bitcoin has raised a lot of hype in the world and now remains the most expensive cryptocurrency. I believe that McAfee was stupid and can show us dummy Satoshi but not the original of the) This simple advertisements.

Guess Mcafee blew all his money on cocaine and boats.  This guy doesn't have much longer to live so he really has a "fuck it" type of attitude.

What are the requirements to reveal his identity? Why McAfee should do this and what would be his profit? If he is a Bitcoin fan, then it isn´t better for Bitcoin to stay decentralized without any known creator?

McAfee has really lost his relevance in this cryptoworld, a lot of his assumptions never came to pass, people do no longer believe him when he makes some pronouncements, especially with his speculations about the price of bitcoin by the end of 2018 which turned to be the reverse. He is no longer taken seriously like he is has been earlier.

I don't care about what John McAfee said about some coins project are profitable at the future, he had said with many altcoin kinds but always lower price and drop, never have potential on higher price again.

I don't trust him at all and I don't care, hope we don't care about them, let them say what.
Will be better if left and ignore it.

I don't think anyone knows who the founder of BTC is maybe for now. Also, I have stopped following him nor giving attention to whatever he says as most always turns out bad. To your question, I will see it as just a mare drama with nothing tangible attached to it.

Well, I have seen some of his crypto-advocating interviews/footage and he isn't completely clueless, but he is so damn greedy or just desperate for attention that he would try to sell his mother if he had to. But at least he is still entertaining, its just troublesome, that some people are still following his advice.

I also don't think too much about it and only focus on what I do and what I believe is that Crypto has the potential to continue to live so even though there is a lot of bad news I try to ignore it.

I believe that this is a primitive method for the speculation of someone else’s well-known name, in order to attract the extinct attention of the community and raise own low authority.
If Satoshi Nakamoto has been silent for so many years, then he has motivation and reasons for this privacy.

Attention is already enough for the cryptocurrency market, everyone is already paying attention to a new kind of assets. It's time to invest in Bitcoin at $ 5,000.

this is really a drama, but i do not think john mcafee really knows who satoshi is. surely he wants to put himself in the crypto world again as important. i am curious who he considers to be satoshi.

He is just seeking attention and that's all which is typical of him. He has lost it in this space, and it will be wise if he can take a rest as nothing he will say now can have any influence in this space anymore. No one really knows who the creator of BTC is and definitely not him.

It is best to focus on bitcoin and crypto currency and ignore both McCafée and Wright claims

Don’t get carried away while the portfolio is becoming bearish

 don't get you, are you saying electroneum is fake? Moreover all investors make profits from etn ICO because the ICO price was 0.01 and etn did make it to 0.2 last bull run so what are you talking about? Apart from the ICO gain electroneum stands out among other altcoins, they are delivering at best, no bullshit, another altcoins John promote is Apollo currency, these altcoins are good, do better research mister

What's is worth nowadays in the crypto sphere? I have long ignored him as he is an attention seeker and nothing more. All my attention now is on BTC and the way the market is moving have no time for him nor his way of life.

I feel sorry to say that but i don't believe in John McAfee and i don't believe in Mr. Satoshi Nakamoto.. I used to follow McAfee and had great tips from him in the past but his latests forecasts never got success and i have lost great ammount of money because of him. He was so sure when he give the picks but he was totally wrong. On march 2018 he told his users to but Bitcoin Private and i made my investment.. The price was $75 and he told us the price will raise to $250.. If you check its price now you can get a shock! The  BTCP price is $0.25 right now. (https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/bitcoin-private/) He made the wrong prediction with -%10.000(!)

Also Mr. Nakamoto, thank you for discovering the bitcoin but where are you? Why do you hide? Why don't you come out and say something.. Everyone started to not to believe in you lately..

John McAfee earns his fame, so he needs to be always in the spotlight. So he gains something to always remember and talk about him. Therefore, there will be no sensation in this case. You can indicate any that he is Satoshi Nakamoto. And then what? This person will deny his involvement in Satoshi and, of course, there will be no evidence from McAfee.

that no matter if you believe it or not, the problem is it true what he will say or just guess.
i think its just drama to take more popularity, or something we dont know why he say that.
so dont take it seriously, satoshi already disappears in 2010.

well, maybe this is just another drama about who is the real satoshi
but, the strange thing is why Mr. john said about he know who is the real satoshi nakamoto now,
when the market of cryptocurrencies growing

You know that tired saying "even a broken clock is right twice a day"? And Electroneum is not some project of superior quality, even if a lot of people made money off of it. But it seems you are forgetting a plethora of other worthless projects that he was shilling in 2017 where people "lost" millions of dollars as a consequence.

It seems to me that the whole problem is that the team is very nice to advertise the project and therefore has attracted enough money.  This of course has a positive effect and my national education is not.  But in the future, the real price will depend only on the actual development of the project.  I don’t say a specific project, but it is precisely such a scale and criteria for evaluating any of the presented projects in the cryptocurrency market.

John McAfee   is a controversial person. He is doing great job for the awareness of crypto, on the other hand he is doing a lot of mess with his bombastic ideas and announcements. He is enjoying under the spot lights and desperately wants attention.

That's the first thing he did, and when he earned a lot of followers.

Then he did this below..




Now, his reputation is bad in crypto, nobody would believe him, except those who does not know what he to most investors in the past.

He’s just talking B, he knows nothing. Maybe he thinks that acting like he knows Satoshi Nakamoto is going to make him expose himself to him, but that doesn’t make any sense. I was following to see if he’s going to expose who Satoshi is, but after following for long and seeing nothing, I just gave up on it, and of course I unfollowed him. I don’t follow people that talk rubbish. The simple truth is that he knows nothing about who Satoshi is.

I don’t know it all sounds like another trap for catching our attention and I ask myself, for what reason? Are we going to witness some unexpected turn in crypto?

Only Satoshi Nakomoto know who is he in reality. But I read one of the interesting versions where Nakomoto is a creator of CoinBase. The second version proposed about of Nakomoto that he was a Litecoin founder. But the real variant on my opinion gives a true or near it true. Satoshi Nakamoto must be a few people. I think that Nakomoto is a team of the best specialists in the sphere of Blockchain technology!

John McAfee is a man who does not deserve the attention of serious people. He very often bears nonsense and gets involved in risky and fraudulent projects.
I do not trust a single word of his.

Indeed, the creator of Bitcoin is very mysterious, I do not know whether Satoshi is a person or a group, maybe I Mcfee already knows who is satamoto, because he really has become crypto anthusiast, we are waiting for this news from John Mcfee !!

another claim, another lies. he is just doing this to get some new victims for his new lies. anyone can say they know Satoshi personally but no one can prove it. this is just another drama they are not compatible for the Crypto industry they need to make a comics industry because they are good on making stories.

I do not even get what the point of his drama. Is he just an attention whore? He just keeps on saying things that crypto peeps will not believe anyway. He just keeps on destroying his reputation.

I have cultivated the habit of not taking any of these things that I see in the media about cryptocurrency too personal, as they are the things that makes the crypto environment fun to be, every time I see such news, do you know the quantity of laughter that comes from my mouth?

Only someone who is not so smart will believe such people, and whatever they do is still good as it keeps making the name of satoshi to always be remembered. Satoshi might have disappeared since 2010, but he still leaves through the words of our mouth irrespective of how we confess it. So it is  better learn to ignore some things like this that we don’t believe in.

another fake and lies from john mc afee. he did that just for getting attention from many peoples
i knew him just from his predict on price bitcoin only
another word i don't even care

Of course, this is a very odious personality and very famous in the world of cryptocurrency users.  But but there are a lot of negative reviews around his statement.  I rely on the opinions of all sorts of professionals and reputable people.  Indeed, Mc Afee expressed not so much his opinion as words for the next PR.

Hahaha as far as I know, satoshi been dead for so long. Furthermore, even if he is alive, he should dead by the time he listens about block chain and crypto being used in negative purposes more than good ones. This technology was only built to enhance the systems of world. But very unfortunately, our people have killed the basic pious idea and contaminated it with every evil that is possible.

Out of the damage he is dong to himself, he is still very useful to us, he is useful in the sense that all his drama is creating attention not only for him, but also to Bitcoin, because his main focus has been of BTC and I am very sure he probably have a very large share in Bitcoin and would do anything to promote the coin to the world.

This is how I have been viewing this whole drama from these people, from craig to Mcafee and I am so sure that Lee will soon come with his own too and many other public figures out there that needs this attention. Ours is just to always follow these news to see its effect on the market and see how we can benefit from its effect.

thats right,,
if i'm not wrong, in the past a lot of hype created by John McAfee on twitter about cryptocurrencies,
so, in my opinion in this case Mr, John want to make his name become more popular
because popularity will bring more money to Mr, John McAfee  ;)

I think he knows what he is saying ,john McAfee is a someone who runs mouth without evidence ,he has better evidence at hand before making that statement ,its just a matter of time before we know the truth

Probably to attract attention. Even if he knew the truth, I think how to make people believe. Satoshi does not keep his identity so cheap. If you remember, his prior promises are still pending...

If it is true, then satoshi must have given him the go ahead to reveal his identity because I do not see any reason why he will reveal it without his permission. For him to have made that statement, he must have really made up his mind to do so, so what is delaying him revealing it?

That is why I believe it is just hype to create attraction for himself, an then when the whole attraction thing dies down, he will come up with another topic again to still revisit it in order to renewed the his popularity. Anyway, since you believe that they have any meaningful thing to offer through his word, you might as well wait for eternity for him to reveal satoshi.

lets the time give us the answer,
if he really know i think he will reveal who is the real satoshi in the near time,
but if this only for sensations wich will bring more popularity to him, i think he will never told us who is the real satoshi,,
wich mean this is only another drama  ;)

It is not good to trust those who are saying all this about satoshi because till now no one is actually aware of him, nobody knows who was satoshi and where he is from, so don’t trust those who are talking about it are lying don’t trust them we only should invest our money and don’t trust anyone who are spreading bad news about him.

I am surprised that some people still believe what John McAfee say, after all his failed predictions and baseless assertions.
Well, since he still has fans, he might still be relevant in his niche.
I believe he does not know whom he claims to know.

I don't believe in John because this is probably only his way of getting attention, because when he promoted some ico and his icon ended in failing his name was considered bad by some people, it could only aim to get his popularity again

it seems like i've lost confidence in him since last year. he had said many interesting things and that made me lose a lot of money because of believing him. if he says something again, then i stop to believe it.

i thought, this was just another drama he made.

Beside he seems doesn't like a person who claims to be Satoshi Nakamoto, he also take this momentum to attract people attention. So that people will believe in him again (because people see him like a hero by bravely promise to publish who Satoshi Nakamoto is). But remember, he has ever hurt crypto community when he was paid to pump a coins. I think traders won't forget about that even he tried to make it up.

i don't believe what he said. it looks like John McAfee just wants to get attention, a few years ago he also said something extraordinary and horrendous crypto and i believe in what he said, the end result is bullshit!

if he said something like that, i only gave a smile to respond.  :) :)

Never listen to them, they are just creating another FUDs causes somebody to believe their lies and false statement.
I may think that almost all of us are aware about this person and it absolutely only fool person could have time to hear their voice or read his statement.
Purely another drama and hopefully nobody could believe in him.

He got a big fan that still believes him no matter if he failed with his prediction or not. I think that is another drama, but for people who don't believe him, we don't have to follow what he said and only trust with ourselves and do research by ourselves. That is the important thing that we need to do so we can find the right time to make action related to the market situations.

Everyone can claim to be a sathosi and now all those identities are clearly unknown to us, but John claims to know whether we should believe in this conversation? of course we don't believe 100% is possible just to attract many members to enter their new project or just to increase demand for Bitcoin.
However, we cannot underestimate it because in a tweet he can reverse the situation of Crypto.

Indeed it is another drama as they are loosing their relevance in the crypto space gradually, thus seeking ways to draw attention to themselves.
The truth is many wish they are founder of BTC or they know who he/she is. Both are just seeking unnecessary attention and they will not get it

And this is even not it! I learnt another website has been created with a live feed countdown towards the unveiling of Satoshi Nakamoto. I believe this may be one way people are trying to get publicity for their websites, etc. Ah well, if this was the plan of Satoshi all along then no problem. If not, I think we should forget about these people trying to create unnecessary drama in the space. Anyways, I hope they donrpull pranks on everyone eagerly waiting for that unveiling hehee.

lol, somehow John McAfee can attract people to believe his words right now. indeed, a year ago i trusted him because part of his speech was the truth. but increasingly believing in his words, i increasingly did not believe that his words were just excessive nonsense.

Nonsense! The guy who tweeted that he will eat his d**k if BTC doesn't hit the $1mln before 2020? :D Looks like, he has no idea what he is talking about. McAfee offered his help on the latest Binance hack and he got accepted by Binance CEO.

Many who read these statements online claimed that first of all it could be a certain degree of PR, and not real circumstances.  In any case, today you need to be careful yourself and draw the right conclusions regarding the cryptocurrency market.

This is just stupidity,there are already many people were claiming that they were real satoshi but no one can prove that.I didn't see any news rearding this after that so no need to worry about satoshi he will be living somewhere.

yes, and now an article talk about another Satoshi nakamoto candidate
https://news.bitcoin.com/satoshi-nakamoto-could-be-criminal-mastermind-paul-le-roux

and i hope this candidate is not the real satoshi, because i really hope if satoshi will stay anonymous  ;)

I don't believe to him. I think this is one of his strategy to become popular. Imagine if he already know the real personality of Satoshi and he want to revealed it,he can say it directly to this forum. But there are so many post that he already know and he will revealed but nothing will happen it is only for his personal benefits so do not think too much about this issue because Satoshi is still a question mark.

If you follow what other people say or predict in the crypto market, you would go like a crazy. Speculation and hype are finding their place in the market. Cryptocurrency itself is good and innovative. However, the people with bad intention may make it bad and tarnish its image. I respect Satoshi and his invention, bitcoin. If he wants to go public, he would do so many years ago at least to look the success of his invention, bitcoin. Bitcoin has got so much success. So do not follow others blindly.

Maybe this is just a joke to get the attention of Crypto fans. I am not too interested in who Satoshi really is. I am only interested in generating profits at Crypto. Make long-term investments and investments to make money. And whoever I think is not so important and I hope Crypto will continue to grow and develop.

No, I don't even believe all that. Maybe he's just trying to threaten Satoshi and make him reveal himself by saying he knows who he is while he doesn't know who he is. Ever since then he has never said anything about it, so it's likely that he knows nothing about him. Craig Wright himself is also claiming that he is the Satoshi Nakamoto that the world is talking about and he's even busy taking up cases against those that says he's not. All these people are just acting drama, drama and that's what it's all about. We shall all see at the end.

A person that's new to the crypto market will listen to McAfee.
But if you are quite old enough and been here for quite good period of time, you will find his words as a joke.
No one knows satoshi even him, I guess he's just making a fuzz to get attention of the people again.

I believe that the disclosure of the personality of Satoshi does not really matter, because the cryptocurrency market has already received the necessary attention of investors and we have already seen the potential of cryptocurrency and the disclosure of his personality will simply satisfy interest and nothing big.

In my opinion, John Mcafee is interested in gaining publicity and attracting people to his post to make himself more popular and possibly give him a sense of humour. There have been several allegations as regards who is Satoshi Nakamoto and non has yielded anything fruitful.

You may be right there, Like the quote "the more you hate the more you love" He's doing it for him to gain bashers from crypto community while he is gaining popularity because of his unprofessional words especially in the twitter. Satoshi Nakamoto is totally uknown many knew it he, have no identity only some of the possible footprints on his post under his name in the past.

seems at this moment, no body believe with a guy called John McAfee if he talk about cryptocurrencies
and maybe this is happend because a lot of his words in the past, such as creating a hype on alts, etc
so, now his words become a joke for all crypto believers right ?

Craig Wright and John McAfee are the last people we should trust . Their reputation speaks for itself and even when John McAfee says that 2 + 2 = 4 I begin to doubt it  :D No drama is to be expected from this chatter. The real drama will be next year, when the time will come for John to eat his dick  ;D

yep! that's right.
i think John McAfee has talked too much, he really will be a joke to many people. i almost forgot that John McAfee once said he would eat his cock.

i hope not to see the news published.  ;D ;D

McAfee has been in cryptocurrency for a very long time, he may well know who Satoshi is. Who exactly can not know who is hiding behind the guise of Satoshi so these are simple users like us. Only those who worked with him in those ancient times, or who works now know who it is.

I never to people who claim know who is satoshi nakamoto. I dont think satoshi is a person and i am prefer satoshi is a group because he/they build a complex algorithm and hard for one person can build that complex algorithm. McAffee is controversial person and in this case i dont believe him

This is truly a big drama and I think that if Bitcoin’s creator wanted to do it, he would have done it long ago without so much hiding and waiting. You do not have to believe what McAfee tell you. And I do not think it is going to change things so much if we come to know about some one responsible for Bitcoins. Why not make money in the bull market rather than wasting time reading things of no value.

John Mcafee and Craig are attention seekers. If they knowthe real Satoshi it if they are the real Satoshi, there are various signature moves to express it rather than making a fuss about it and destabilising the market with the tantrum

For sure if there's real claimed behind that statement they will show it up and not just staking their reputations which already been no bearing
around this industry, very sure that's nothing than trying to have more attentions with crypto communities.

In fact, who is the original satoshi, it can only be good. Those who are more knowledgeable. However, all of McAfee knows more about the hypothesis.
