Bitcoin Forum

Source: https://twitter.com/satoshi/status/1708886029636137256

As I was about to sleep, I came across this one. Can't believe he made his first tweet since 2018.

Here's Satoshi's latest tweet and I quote:

"Bitcoin is a predicate machine.  Over the following months, we shall explore different aspects that were not explicitly contained within the white paper.  These aspects are all parts of bitcoin, and are important.  Some of these ideas were touched upon in the early years; now is the time to extrapolate and explain."

When I look at the comments of this tweet, there are mixed reactions like he's not the real Satoshi, scheduled post, he just got out of jail, etc.

But his account has blue verified check mark at least.

I don't know what to say but he does have some plans in store for Bitcoin. What's your take on this guys?

What? maybe is elon musk in the backend.

The only whay to proof that he is satoshi is signed a message with one of his address.

I'm going to take this with a grain of salt.

I have a feeling that this may not be Satoshi, but then we shall see in coming weeks or months.

Satoshi can easily prove himself by simply signing a transaction from his wallet and put this whole drama to rest.

Like many people have suggested in the comment section of
that tweet, I will advice anyone not to click any phisihng link that will come out of that tweet. Hackers are active!

We can not see anything. What if the person is a bitcoin developer and planning something? That does not make him Satoshi. The only Satoshi I can believe is the person that will sign a message with the address linked to Satoshi in the past and Satoshi has not done that. If Satoshi will come, he will give evidences that he is Satoshi that nobody will be able to question further. That person that called himself Satoshi on Twitter is not Satoshi unless he proves otherwise.

I'm not comfortable with this topic nonchalantly attempting to legitimise the 2018 post.  Some of us still aren't convinced that was the real satoshi.  I don't even think the 2014 one was satoshi.  And this latest one isn't very convincing either.

I found the replies on this tweet funny even reading that the tweet makes CW look more legit to be Satoshi.  ;D, and one following that it is a good news LOL.  I do not know if the reply is deleted or was buried by the current reply since I can't find them to take a screenshot.

Anyway, it is highly possible that the post is made by another person and not Satoshi, there are lots of refute on the replies and many are sarcastic.


Indeed, it would shock the world if that Twitter account signed a Bitcoin message from the address that is known to belong to Satoshi.

The name of the profile is satoshi and was even verified. But I don't think that it's real him, the real satoshi was gone for so long and he won't just be back out of nowhere tweeting that. And I think this topic and this one: Craig "Faketoshi" Wright saga continues. His team turns against him. (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5468951.0) are connected.
It's because of the quote on that tweet of satoshi's profile.


That's the way to go and that tweet says that it was rated as "helpful". LOL, of course it does. CSW is impostor and a con.

Blue checkmark is not a sign of authenticity since Elon Musk bought twitter, now it means that the account owner bought twitter subscription. But even if the checkmark still was about authenticity, it would change nothing - no one knows Satoshi's identity, so no one can verify it.

To me even just a signed message is not a full proof, because there can be many ways how someone would get their hands on those keys. Someone who claims to be Satoshi would need to present a lot more evidence than that - a full story of how they created Bitcoin with some small details, etc.

Being too sure that he is Satoshi I think is also not good because in the end is it possible that he who has disappeared for a long time returns to social media with the same name after some time just to get a sensation because in the end if he wanted more sensation why he was not here at that time because it would be much more convincing.
As for the blue tick issue I just want to remind how easy it is to get a blue tick nowadays without the need to validate the truth whether it is genuine or not especially for social media like meta or X it is something that is easy to get.

Ever since Elon took control of X, which used to be Twitter, I haven't been using it much. I believe it's no longer as reliable as it used to be for tracking current trends; it seems like there's manipulation happening.

As far as I know, the real Satoshi Nakamoto hasn't been actively involved in Bitcoin development since December 2010. In my opinion, it's unlikely that the creator of Bitcoin would have anything to do with X, especially now.

This images from X should put paid to this confusion.




Satoshi didn't make the tweet.

I surprised when I read the title but quickly when I visit X, I realized it is very possibly not a real account of Satoshi Nakamoto. Because the account was registered in May 2018, not more years farther in the past like 2010 or 2011.

satoshi (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=3) account on Bitcointalk was last active on December 13, 2010. So a Twitter account registered 8 years later does not make sense and can not convince me that it is actually from Satoshi Nakamoto.

That account is possibly owned by someone else, not the founder of Bitcoin, so that tweet is not serious.

Before checking, I thought that Satoshi Nakamoto account was hacked but after checking, nothing to discuss on it as it is not a Satoshi's account.

Why would he use twitter when he has his own forum + community? Who would and could verify and authenticate such claims better than this community?  And here we all thought he left the fate of bitcoin to the hands of people/community, yet this twitter account/ owner seems to have plans for bitcoin, well we don't want to extrapolate anything with you, it's better you go back to the same hole you were.😂

@faketoshi, I can make this post entirely different, to make people believe this is real satoshi tweeting. #shill_for_hire😉

Seems a very fake account one guy send him a direct message:

https://www.talkimg.com/images/2023/10/03/P5KWd.png (https://www.talkimg.com/image/P5KWd)

https://www.talkimg.com/images/2023/10/03/P5pC5.png (https://www.talkimg.com/image/P5pC5)

fakesatoshi first ask for 3 bitcoin to sell that account.

That a scammer behaivor without doubt

Satoshi disappearing in December 2010 and writing tweets in either 2014 or 2018 doesn't make any sense. People pretending to be him does make sense, even if the message could have been said by Satoshi himself.


You see, if you scratch a little, you can see that it's not Satoshi.

I saw this on twitter but I didn't mind because it was clearly a scam account.
If he wants to come back to us and bitcoin, I believe the first place he will say something will definitely be this forum, not twitter or any other social network. Especially social networks like twitter because it's so easy to buy blue ticks now since it's owned by Elon, which doesn't prove anything.
I agree with what MusaMohamed mentioned, that twitter account was created in 2018 while he was last active on this forum in 2010. Does anyone wonder, if Satoshi really comes back, why is he not active here but chooses twitter, a social network with quite a lot of trash?

Let's not forget that satoshi left before bitcointalk.org was created . So , even if he comes back he probably won't have the credentials to log in to this forum . He is also in a banned/locked status https://loyce.club/trust/2020-07-11_Sat_05.05h/

https://www.talkimg.com/images/2023/10/03/P7aWf.png

You are very right mate, Bitcoin talk would be the first place he would be visiting if he is really stepping out of the dark.
A lot of people are being fooled daily by that blue verification mark on Twitter and forgetting the fact that Twitter accounts can be bought. It's obviously just another scam account. I don't buy that shitty story and would advice everyone to keep off, just as a reply stated you won't want to tell your own story

I'm pretty sure it's not Satoshi. Why would Satoshi leave Bitcointalk(safe to presume for security/privacy purposes) — a platform that has decent privacy compared to most social media platforms, then join Twitter, knowing that Twitter has some trackers that could potentially break his privacy?

He still have another way which is sign a message from address that associated with early blocks, this one is the example.


If people can trust an unknown account using satoshi username in social media, I think I need to create an account using satoshi name in Tiktok right now, I will copy paste satoshi's post in this forum to post in there and wait until 2030 I'll make one more post lol.

Satoshi Nakamoto account, satoshi (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=3), was locked for security reason. That account was not banned.

Did somebody come back? Is Satoshi using his bank account to pay for verification? lol
This account just came back once Twitter started to pay for content
And I think that account has nothing to do with the founder of Bitcoin.
But the first post since 2018 has to mean something
Let’s see how this plays out. Just follow the money. Bitcoin was ongoing to evolve, keep buying the dips and hodl.

I came across the post yesterday as well on X (Twitter) but unfortunately I was very busy and did not had time to go through the comments section. Can't believe some people are too gullible to still trust anything they see on social media platforms nowadays. It's too early for us to forget what happened with some reputable and influential people's Twitter account in the years back, asking them to send crypto to certain address and expect double in return. Majority fall for that trick that year and from the look of things, people will still fall for such trick if the acclaimed Satoshi's account post the same thing.

After you create the tiktok account, I will create YouTube channel on his name and start posting using AI generated voice so the drama will continue. The blue tick is no longer a criterion to identify the authenticity of Twitter account as it's now pay and get. Elon Musk doesn't care about impersonation.

This image keeps things clear and also will make people believe it's not Satoshi. The account is not being penalized for not adding Parody on his profile name. No authentic account represents Satoshi on twitter. Hence, the owner of that account is the first person to own a verified Satoshi twitter username. Regardless of the new twitter verification process. A lot of people still trust blue tick accounts. They may believe any tweet from such account, despite seeing the initial tweet where he indirectly mentioned being a parody. Isn't there any other means of identifying Satoshi, without requiring him to sign a message? No, no other means of identifying him exist. It's the highest height of staying anonymous and private. Satoshi is indeed an advocate of privacy. This has thought me the importance of staying private as a bitcoiner. Multiple journalists have litanies of unsuccessful moments, while in search for Satoshi. So he, Satoshi, won't make the task so simple by setting up a twitter page. In other ways, the increase in number of people claiming to be Satoshi, has made the work more strenuous for journalists. I think Satoshi can easily come out and say that he is Satoshi, but no one believes him, unless he signs a message. What an invention! In my days of searching and researching about Satoshi, I would have believed Op's thread. But, it's safe to say now that, Satoshi has been away since he left. Provided no other proof is available to claim his identity, he is a free man.

"Your bitcoin is secured in a way that is physically impossible for others to access, no matter for what reason, no matter how good the excuse, no matter a majority of miners, no matter what." -- Greg Maxwell

I'm pretty sure it's not Satoshi, he's the creator of bitcoin so he would be very concerned about his privacy and Twitter is not a sufficient place to meet his needs. Furthermore, that account was only created in 2018 so it is definitely a fake account. This Tweet was not only discussed on Twitter, it was also shared and discussed by people on so many different social platforms, but what I saw was that the majority of people knew it was a fake account. Only those newbies misunderstand that it is a real Satoshi.

So Satoshi, who was using Tor in 2010, and who has not appeared in years, comes back on the X platform and pays $8 for the blue authentication signal to publish this tweet? This is something that a child cannot believe, and without timing a message from the addresses I use here, there is no way to verify any information related to Satoshi.
I don't expect someone who disappeared for 10 years to come back again

Remember that Craig Wright is a person who has repeatedly tried to fool the world into believing he is the actual Satoshi. Due to the nuance related to crypto sometimes people not very familiar with Bitcoin's history tend to believe him. But he has never provided any material proof that he actually is Satoshi.

On the other hand he has leveraged his claim that he is Satoshi to try and gather fame and money through various schemes. One being him creating a fork of bitcoin. And other attempts to pressure companies and other parties to provide him access to coins he doesn't own because as he says, he is Satoshi. It's a whole lot of nonsense.

You should have definitely gone to sleep and missed this "news" to a some newbie, because it's hard for me to imagine that someone who has been on this forum since 2014 can believe in such fairy tales. However, on the other hand, it is much clearer to me why various Faketoshis still manage to have an army of loyal followers when you can sell them such a cheap story.

If you have some extra BTC, you can buy that account and become Satoshi, blue mark is for free ::)

It may not be? Buddy, whoever is behind that Twitter account is 100% not Satoshi Nakamoto himself. That account was created in 2018, and do you really belive that there is a chance satoshi would come back after being awol for 8 years and start writing on Twitter instead coming here?

My guess is that it could be CSW behind that, or some similar troll.

I don't think binging up Wright is even relevant in this context and I doubt he would use Twitter to run his scam through an account called Satoshi. Twitter is too centralized for him to do this, specially since Musk (as the owner of Twitter) could easily make a statement saying "this account has changed hands/was sold". That would shut down his claim very quickly.

Satoshi Nakamoto is still alive, and he is not in jail. I have received this information from the Global Network Association. Whether it's true or not, I don't know; I guess nobody knows.

One thing is clear: why would he send a message after all these years? And this blue checkmark is merely a badge that you can purchase on Twitter

Contrary to your earlier statement, I found it necessary to share the link to Satoshi's account on the forum (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=3). It appears that he was the third person to join the forum and had received 42 merits in response to the content in your post. He is widely regarded as the forum's founder, and I find it perplexing that he was banned. We should exercise caution when collecting and sharing information.

This is exactly what happened.

Yet we're still here talking about it

It is NOT Satoshi, according to community notes on Twitter.

This is just a parody account created by Craig Wright's team (it says) to throw people off.

Satoshi is practically gone since 2011 and anyone claiming to be him should not be trusted unless they bring cryptographic proof that they are indeed him.


It's kind of strange how we are talking about some tweet from a guy who is clearly talking like he's a random professor at some uni. This is not how the real Satoshi would write.

This tweet created lot of panics amongst the social users but I was not aware that some Bitcointalk members also thinking so. Answer was given in first five posts that if anyone claim to be a Satoshi, let's him to signed the transaction from his wallet! further no need of Satoshi to reveal identity if he is still live as his anonymity has become Bitcoin very strong.

The twitter account is created in 2018 and some tweet found that time also then why people are still panicking ?

^ Watch out, this guy is a well-known CSW/BSV shill:

https://disqus.com/by/geo_gou/

He truly believes CSW is Satoshi, that he's such a "great philosopher"! :D

I doubt if that was the real Satoshi.
BTC was invented 2008 and checking on the twitter account handle it was joined 2018. That is a way far because it is not possible that he would get on to twitter in such period of time if he could have such a highily personal profile and besides... The Satoshi in question would not have such less number of followers when if he could invent such a trading firm world wide exchange of currency BTC.
I am wondering if an anonymous with a hypocritic characteristics would hesitately tend to take advantage to  impersonate the Almighty Satoshi by creating that account that Twitter was able to verify due to it social influence since Satoshi himself has seemed to remains anonymous.

I smell something dangerous here. Employing someone else's identity for deceitful purposes is a cruel act that must be promptly eradicated. The direct messages you're referring to date back to 2018, roughly five years ago. What concerns me is the possibility that individuals who have recently entered the world of Bitcoin may trust the false Satoshi's words and send money.

Stay vigilant, everyone. We are all unaware of the various methods employed by many internet scammers. The most crucial thing is not to send BTC with the promise of substantial profits. It's quite evident that the Twitter account in question is subscribing to the blue checkmark to appear trustworthy.

Twitter blue tick: How to get the Twitter verified Blue check mark and how much does it cost (https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/how-to/twitter-starts-removing-blue-ticks-how-to-get-the-twitter-verified-blue-check-mark-and-how-much-does-it-cost/articleshow/99657053.cms?from=mdr)

Obviously it’s not Satoshi, I do wonder who controls that @ though. Must be worth an incredible amount of money. Would be awful obviously but the phishing opportunities with that @ in the wrong hands are scary. I guess you could report the account for impersonating somebody else, then again CW would be banned in that case.

This could have been a very big news especially in the whole cryptocurrency industry and its excitement can even invite the mainstream media...but alas it will not be because below the post is this disclaimer: "Craig Wright claims to be Satoshi Nakamoto, but has been proven to be a fraud. He controls this account and it should not be trusted." Oh well, so this is an account of my beloved Craig Wright who is 100% Wrong.

Haha I agree.

This gibberish sounds indeed what I would expect our Elon-boy would maybe want to post.
With all I have read so far from the real Satoshi, I doubt he put out a cryptic message like this. I would expect a very clear statement, but even more likely: None at all.

 Another funny thing is that of he is Satoshi, what's the point in making it look so obvious? According to what the Op provided, he was desperately trying to convince whoever that he's is Satoshi. See, I won't put it past him to get to know about Twitter but knowing about the Blue tick simply looks like someone was managing the account for him and if such happens, the person could be tempted to act like he is the Satoshi. Heck, if he is the Satoshi, he should clear doubts by coming here and signing a message, without that he's just a wannabe. I mean if that is the only way he's claiming to be the creator of Bitcoin, I'd advise he does better because even I can do that  ;D
 Another one that got me laughing so hard was the post were he was bargaining to sell the account for 5 BTC. It's so crazy how far peeps could go just to scam unsuspecting individuals. Like Satoshi has run out of BTC and is now trying to get some on Twitter? Cool..
 

I never expected it to be a real satoshi - I mean such social media platforms don't support privacy at all and I'm sure satoshi never will. I don't know the real reason someone with such a severe degree of brain damage created that account - but perhaps they have sinister plans following the upcoming halving.

We all know satoshi has been really protective of his privacy over the years - so don't expect him to just show up and post something on a social media platform without caring about privacy. If satoshi still exists and he really wants to connect with his community - then he does not have to admit he is satoshi but his contribution to the development of bitcoin remains first. I tend to agree bitcointalk.org is a good place for him to connect with the community - so I don't expect it to be a real account of satoshi.

Various speculations arose after this Tweet was made as to who was actually behind the account in the name of Satoshi. User X reactions are very mixed, it cannot be assumed that Satoshi did it even though his account has a blue check mark. What if my assumption is that Elon Musk played his role behind the account in Satoshi's name, maybe it was him because X is under his control.

don't you find it funny and Ironic that he decided to disappear in 2011 and remain unknown but suddenly posted on Twitter and even has a blue checkmark  ::) I doubt that someone who wanted to remain unknown would do something like this.

you know his account was banned/locked to secure the account and not be vulnerable to hacks, and if he wants to open his account again, he can just simply contact Theymos and ask for his account to be unbanned/unlocked after he provides the necessary evidence that he is actually satoshi.

There were very varied responses from various groups on Twitter/X regarding the emergence of an X account named Satoshi Nakamoto, last active in 2018, and suddenly tweeting again 5 years later. Everyone has different assumptions about the appearance of this account, and this is perhaps natural as bitcoin fans really miss its presence.

But friends, this account appears with a blue check mark even though you can be sure that this is a fake Satoshi. Let's think logically, we all know that Satoshi Nakamoto is a person who has more intelligence than anyone when it comes to privacy, he never reveals himself and he is also a person who prioritizes security and anonymity. So it's impossible for him to use Twitter/X because X doesn't guarantee privacy.

This is true because you need to submit some kind of banking details to Twitter to pay for it... Its pretty hard to believe that Satoshi Nakamoto would just whip out his Mastercard to pay for the blue check.  :D

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/F7dZQePWwAEAtTd?format=jpg&name=small

Here is some more evidence that the account was owned by Not Satoshi:

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/F7dFvzyXYAARu3C?format=jpg&name=small

And that it was sold to BSV people for the purpose of promoting the Faketoshi scam:

https://pbs.twimg.com/media/F7dNML-WgAAWzoS?format=jpg&name=small

BTW, all these images are from my new favorite twitter account, @agerhanssen (https://twitter.com/agerhanssen), who was recently fired from his CEO position at nChain (https://twitter.com/agerhanssen/status/1707884086776279486) for refusing to continue going along with the scam... He has since turned whistleblower and his revelations are not just entertaining but likely to be the final deathblow to this idiocy which has persisted for almost 5 years now.

All protocol changes must be made based on BIP, so as good as scammers set the status of social media accounts like the Twitter version of satoshi to carry out change plans , it won't be a reality.
For some purposes, I even trust non-verified accounts on this platform more. Lol

Hilarious. Another Satoshi revelation topic? The never ending mystery of Satoshi Nakamoto continues. The real creator may be alive/dead at this point and we will never know for sure.

If Satoshi was actually still alive, he/she would never reveal themselves and anyone with a half-decent brain can guess why.

LOL!
Satoshi has been gone for more than 2 decades now, and even back in 2018 most people didn't believe that it is the real creator who is posting on tweeter.
Satoshi wants anonymity so why would the creator of Bitcoin post on social media?
I think most of us already know why this accont has been created it is just for publicity.

Obviously it isn't satoshi, but someone has had control of this account for some time now.  Who knows the reasoning for the post now.  Maybe Elon finally is freeing up usernames that have sat idle for a long time and someone jumped at it.  Maybe the person who had control of it finally decided to sell it to someone else. 

I'm hearing rumors it had something to do with nchain and faketoshi but you never know what to believe when it comes to that camp.  For now I think I'll just stick with the fact it isn't satoshi and let the irrelevance of the tweet be what it is.

Believe me, everyone is trying to fake proof to the world that they are the real Satoshi, like there is a trophy they would win if they can be able to confuse the world.

The funny thing is how easy it is to proof to the world that they are Satoshi, they just need to do some signing with one of Satoshis address, easy.

But till today, no one has been able to do it, meaning that everyone coming out trying to steal Satoshis identity are fake people.

Also, I can't forget how anonymity is very important to this man, it's a part why Bitcoin is progressing, if not, they may have to terminate him or get him arrested and bend him to their knees, and maybe Bitcoin will slowly turn into centralized digital currency because of it.

So to Satoshi, Anonymity is very important for him.

^ We believe you  ;D


There is a warning under that thread. It says: Craig Wright claims to be Satoshi Nakamoto, but has been proven to be a fraud. He controls this account and it should not be trusted:
Is this Satoshi account is put to Auction, a ton of people will bid on it.

If it isn't Elon or Craig, then Elon can finally check who owns this account and maybe trace it if possible. Very timely for this account to post though because the price of BTC is moving up and people speculate a bull run is coming.

Maybe you would like to fix that?

No. Satoshi has not been gone for more than two decades. At least not yet. Bitcoin did not even exist two decades ago.

You may want to correct this what is two decades to you, TwitterX will never be an option for the real Nakamoto to announce something, it will give away his anonymity people from TwitterX can trace him, through his location, the device he is using and that will the end of our long quest on where and who is the real Nakamoto, I don't think he will have a reason to surface now, there's so much risk holding 1 million Bitcoin.

Did you wake from a coma? Elon bought Twitter, named it X, and starting selling verification check mark for a few dollars. Matter of fact, the account you claim to have a verification mark shows that the account has been verified since “September 2023”.



I saw this whole thing on a friend’s status and merely looking at the account registration year, I know it could never be Satoshi. I mean… he waited 10 years to open a twitter account? Really? And at the time, I didn’t care to check the account properly, but you made me figure that the verification is bought, and the account managed by an impersonator.

Satoshi is still anonymous and I do not understand for what he came out of. Like the person who hide himself for several years, why did he come out now? And
 I know Stasoshi was a wise person why he would make such an error if he wanted to know he just does a transaction and boom everyone will know he is the actual one. This is a clear-cut phishing or a scammer attack by using his name account. I suggested you all not click on those links if you are using a mobile or PC; it seems like a phishing site. And let's know from Elon Musk what he is saying about this account and if you see that is blue ticked it means they have enough data to locate him, And take serious action against those who are trying to be staoshi nakamoto and spreading false information.

Exactly, I'm surprised that it took several posts before finding yours that explain how Twitter, pardon, X verification process works since Musk's buy out. Anyway for me the account is definitely fake, I mean, Satoshi disappeared from this very same forum which is full of very useful information, why should he join Twitter in 2018 instead of being active again here?

lol how are you sure its Satoshi Nakamato? satoshi is using Twitter where he is totally anonymous. you are a Hero Member means you have enough knowledge about this forum and Bitcoin. how could you post such a ridiculous post? This is a fake account and there is a person behind it using the identity of Satoshi. it can be a bitcoin miner account.

-It is very funny that Satoshi is using a social media like Twitter which has no privacy guarantee.
- Satoshi is retweeting Elon Musk's tweet

After seeing your post -
https://talkimg.com/images/2023/10/04/PizpI.jpeg

Bitcoin fans really miss his presence even if he only posts "Hi" on his Bitcointalk account, as has just happened on the Twitter (X) account in the name of Satoshi recently. The appearance of the first tweet since he last tweeted in 2018 has invited various responses, whether Satoshi has returned or someone else manages the account.
Your assumption is correct, because X does not guarantee privacy, anyone involved in company X can infiltrate accounts in the name of Satoshi Nakamoto. Even though I really miss Satoshi's presence back among Bitcoin supporters, it's not easy to believe that it was him who made that tweet.

I do not think all this claims are neccessary, let's thanked the unknown Satoshi for the remarkable work of technology that has birthed the bitcoins. All we have to do is look forward to seeing bitcoins become globally accepted either by awareness and usage or by governments approval.
I see this guy's claiming to be Satoshi as disturb to the peace of the Bitcoin space. I will advice that new investors should be careful lest they becomes scammed by those false account.

As for the blue check on a social media account is not a guarantee, people with names related to Satoshi can also verify their account and make such claims.

My reply to both of you is that i would have to trust theymos for that , and considering his position at some point that old coins should be burned ( including satoshi's ) i don't . That's why i wrote banned/locked and not just banned as in the page fof LoyceV .
https://archive.ph/DVbk7


@satoshi twitter account was registered in 2007 . It was inactive from 2009 until 2018 .
https://web.archive.org/web/20230000000000*/https://twitter.com/satoshi .
I have to say though that there's no proof that satoshi nakamoto registered that account as tweets were protected .

Nothing matches the old tweets that he used to write. Here's a new tweet that was made 40 minutes ago. LINK (https://x.com/satoshi/status/1709630701560009070?s=20) I don't think that this is the real "Satoshi". Could be an impersonator, who knows? Or a new trick from Elon Musk. Never trust everything you see on the internet without any legitimate proof. It could also be a case of account access compromization. What if it is some hacker who has access to that account and he's doing this for his own benefit?

Not everything is real and not every fake is fake. So be careful before falling for any trick. Have patience and wait till this is all over.

As long as it was from twitter, I disagree that it is Satoshi. Anyone can just wake and claim to be Satoshi, Elon must be part of this game because he will know what is happening behind this claim since he owns X.

Imagine when Faketoshi came out on twitter to claim Satoshi, is when Elon has bought twitter, and let's not also forget that Elon sold his bitcoin few months ago for some shitcoin, which shows that he knows a lot to this.

We need to be careful of scammers because they can come in different ways to get their prey.

Blue mark on the user account that made the tweet don’t have anything to prove, because anyone can get blue mark with just a payment of few dollars. Even if the account of Satoshi which is on this forum is to come online today if not that it’s has been locked for security reasons.

If it comes online today and make any claim that he is Satoshi, they will still want some prove and not just a typed tweet or word on this forum, something should be used to verify the authenticity of the information.

I believed their are few people who are here who have come a one on one comment encounter with the real Satoshi and they can also identify how he writes and communicate to some point.

I think there won't be any need for any of us to assume whether the Twitter user is the main Satoshi or not since the reader's context has been passed on to him(not the real Satoshi) for people to be aware of what he's trying to do ''claiming to be Satoshi''.

Even if his account is blue verified and he started tweeting in 2018, there is still insufficient evidence to conclude that he is Satoshi. A blue verified account may now be purchased, and the tweet he posted in 2018 won't be the first one regarding people pretending to be Satoshi on Twitter.

In my opinion, all he needs to do to clear up people's doubts about him is to display his proposed bitcoin address. People would then take his assertions that he is Satoshi seriously.

Even since Satoshi has left all the activities of Bitcoin to the volunteer developers which include Theymos, Cyrus, etc. I believe he has already left everything in the hands of the community and whoever makes the tweet is either the devs in charge of Bitcoin now or the doing of the Twitter team since Twitter is not a decentralized platform that can't be manipulated.

Satoshi is fucking dead. Good riddance. Or maybe Satoshi lost his private key. Bitcoin does not even have a mining algorithm that was never designed to advance science, so Bitcoin is the ultimate shitcoin, and Bitcoiners are shit.

For now, SN acts as an alias on that account, what you need is to pay a couple of "$" and send some requirements that accredit you as the owner.

In any case, the rules of "X" establish the following:
"...
No misleading content:

Your account must have no recent changes to your profile photo, display name, or username (@Username)

Your account must have no signs of being misleading

Your account must have no signs of engaging in platform manipulation and spam.
... "
Source:"https://help.twitter.com/en/managing-your-account/about-x-verified-accounts"

So, it is clear that neither party is complying, neither social network "X" nor the account owner.

It is not necessary for this community to believe that because an account is "verified" it indicates being SN.

The fact this account was created in 2018 makes it very clear that couldn't have been Satoshi behind this account, I don't believe it and neither do many BTC supporters. When I saw the Twitter post, the first thing that came to my mind was to check when the account was created and that was the catch.

The only downside of X platform now is that anyone can pay a few $$ to get a verified badge to deceive people as they desire. A real Satoshi Nakamoto X account should have the Golden Tick which depicts in its entirety the groundbreaking technology and Nakamoto's genius status. A genius like Satoshi can not have just a blue tick owned by just about anyone who can afford to pay 8$, lol, That is so demeaning of who he truly is.  

Why would the real Satoshi make that post on a platform owned by such a controversial
figure as Elon Musk is. I can imagine Satoshi would not agree with a lot of what Musk preaches
and his past performance with Bitcoin ^{and crypto in general}

Satoshi more than likely would post here on the platform ¿he? created ¿himself? - Bitcointalk.org
if there was an update to share....now or in the past ²⁰¹⁸

You must be new to X platform :) because it has been widely reported that Elon Musk does not give two damns about whether an account is impersonating someone else unless they are paying for the blue checkmark.

Before, this account probably would've gotten banned, but nowadays with all of this free speech mantra, it is unlikely that anything will happen to this troll account.

Why is a Twitter account causing all this traffic? How will a Twitter account be proven to be the real Satoshi? Even if this account do belongs to real Satoshi, it could be hacked, do you all forget how Vitalik twitter account got hacked?

Still none of these means the account is for Satoshi, and there is a way to proof it, by just logging into his Bitcointalk account again will add more meaningful thoughts and signing some transactions will help too.

I am not going to believe this until who ever they are proves that they are real Satoshi, I believe the real Satoshi will not want to prove to the world who he really is, because that was what he wanted from the beginning.

I'm a bitcoiner, I'm trash and I have a dream life that many people envy, including you. Since I invested in bitcoin, which you call trash, it has brought me hundreds of percent profit and given me a house, car...and in the future, the bitcoins I hold will help me live a life without worrying about fiat inflation.

And you, what have you achieved in life? Is your life okay? Let alone what have you done to help people like Satoshi did? According to my life experience, people who compare and are jealous of other people's success are usually useless and failures in society. I'm quite confident and sure, you are one of them.

As bitcointalk users, it will not be too difficult for us to recognize that it is a fake account. But for newbies and those who are not active on the forum, it is easy to believe that it is the real Satoshi. If you read all the discussions on twitter, you will see there are many mixed opinions and many people also believe that it is the real Satoshi.

I'm just like you, I won't bother and easily trust anyone until they can access Satoshi's bitcointalk account. His account was locked and only the real Satoshi could access it.

Not all Bitcoiners are rich. Some came out during the moment of peak market cap. And saying "I am rich" is not an argument. It is simply greed and being an asshole. Bitcoin has a mining algorithm that was never designed to advance science, so Bitcoin is garbage.

The link doesn't work so I can't open and check it, anyway someone could have simply bought that username, it wouldn't be the first time and for sure it won't be the last one. Also let's not forget that Satoshi always kept a low profile: he manly used this forum and emails to communicate, he never used any kind of social media like Facebook, that already existed at that time. I really can't imagine him using Twitter now, after all these years.

You can go back and check the tweet again, you'll see that there is a community note that states that the account isn't being run by Satoshi. We should really be careful in just believing anything we see on Twitter or X nowadays since it is pretty easy to get the blue check mark now. Moreover, I don't think Satoshi will just compromise his anonymity just to tweet something like that. There are already a lot of individuals claiming that they are Satoshi so it'll be a smart move to just ignore them and not give the attention they are trying so hard to seek.

I would consider this account compromised at this point with the change of hands of the company!

And with Musk at the wheel, I can only imagine how much data his been mining on this account trying to put a face to the name especially that twitter does IP log on its accounts...

---

Saw something in line of Craig Wright hacked the account etc and that's how I closed the x tab knowing very well this account isn't associated with Satoshi .

I'd go a step further and suggest it was likely never legitimate from the start.  Think about it.  Does it really make sense that satoshi would sign up to twitter of all things?  I could understand an account on a platform like StackExchange or something equally technical and respectable.  That sort of thing would fit the profile.  But twitter?  Nah.  I don't think it was ever satoshi using that site.  Just a cheap imitation.

Next people will be claiming satoshi is on TikTok Vine (just noticed someone already made a TikTok joke).   :D

Why not?

According to BSV shills it's totally possible! ;D (if you think Satoshi is a narcissistic asshole such as CSW)

Probably it’s the fake Satoshi, it could be Elon or whoever that just want to steal the highlight from the original Satoshi.

However, I have to agree on this tweet. A lot are happening about bitcoin that’s just too far away from its white paper, and the more we are exposed to different bitcoin events, the more we get to know the real value of bitcoin.

It’s just sad that the real Satoshi is not active anymore on this forum, at least we should have thanked him for his brilliant creation.

I have observed several tweets that this account has made, most of the tweets occurred in 2018 and all of them are just copy pastes from Satoshi's writings on the BTT forum, there is no evidence that he is the real Satoshi, I'm sure he accidentally has the nickname (@) Satoshi. The real Satoshi wouldn't be careless about exposing himself/herself, especially now that Elon Musk has Twitter, so there's a big chance he'll be able to track all Twitter users.

That tweet has gotten some feedback from X users.

Apparently, the account is owned by faketoshi Craig Wright and he has been updating the account and making new tweets.

At first thought, I was wondering why satoshi will wait since then only to come out now and tweet?  Craig Wright really needs to drop this satoshi drama because it's no longer funny.  :D

Bitcoin offers opportunities for everyone and rewards will only go to deserving people who know how to take advantage and seize the opportunity. People who are lazy, stupid and refuse to accept challenges should not expect worthy rewards. Bitcoin is very fair, creates opportunities for everyone and does not discriminate like many other investments.

You constantly mention science, so do you understand what science is? If it is trash like you say then why is Bitcoin included in the Guinness Book of World Records in 2022? In short, I find what you say more like trash because you have no evidence for what you say.

https://voi.id/en/technology/219858#:~:text=Bitcoin's%20entry%20into%20the%20Guinness,the%20world's%20first%20decentralized%20cryptocurrency.

Couldn't agree more. I am 100% convinced if Satoshi wants it to be known that it is indeed him, there will be no doubts about it.
A random twitter message won't be his choice of communcation, unless accompanied by a signed 100% verifiable Bitcoin message.

The sad part is, maintream-clickbait media loves to pick up on this BS and most people that are not familiar with this topic will belive whatever they decide to publish about it.

You're right. If Satoshi would want to relay message for everyone, definitely it's not in Twitter but most likely within this forum. Why will he bother posting it in Twitter when there's a perfect place for him in bitcointalk forum. So this one is obviously done by a fake Satoshi, and I don't think his idea will work on us, except for those who really don't know Satoshi is.

It's not believable in my opinion and it's hard to believe that it is Satoshi Nakamoto without proof and since it's in twitter it could be Faketoshi claiming he is Satoshi or maybe someone is making that account or maybe elon did since he also knows crypto. Although, if you check the tweet, there are some people who say that it's not Satoshi himself but Faketoshi even though the account is verified as we can see the blue mark on the account and elon is also in crypto and making tweets about crypto like Dogecoin.

Why Satoshi would go with such a low way to resurface its existence? Obviously, Satoshi knows better.

For all the persons/communities Satoshi has interacted with in the past, Satoshi's own PGP key, although the fact Satoshi's bitcointalk account locked and the email hacked, Satoshi certainly know there are many ways for him/her/them to provably verify the identity. Not by a mere centralized platform with a questionable blue check verification. Going on with that way is rather an obvious mockery.

I'll be honest: I'm very surprised there are people on this forum that actually believe that that account was really owned and used by Satoshi. Why would someone who wanted to disappear be using social media? Come on, guys, let's be serious :) If for any reason Satoshi would go public again, it would be on this forum, that's it.

It would be strange if people who have been on this forum since 2017 believe that the account really belongs to Satoshi and is used by Satoshi.
The simplest thought, if account

About 1 hour ago, the X account in the name of Satoshi Nakamoto again tweeted about using OP_Codes

it's not important to continue discussing X account, but for newcomers, don't be influenced by the fact that it's Satoshi's tweet.

Cant really be totally be avoided for those newbies or new comers whom would really be having thoughts that it was really indeed Satoshi. Reading up on previous replies and sentiments on which saying that this isnt satoshi then its odd that X or Elon himself didnt really that banning or restricting that account so that it wont really be making some further false identity? Whether we do like it or not on which there would really be those people who would really be mislead and would really be that believing that it was indeed Satoshi.If they wont really be tending to make some indepth research then they would really be finding themselves believing on things which arent really supposed to believe.

We've seen all over the years had passed that there are a couple of personalities which are trying out to claim that they are Satoshi but among all of them then they do really fail
on providing proof that they are really that Satoshi and this is why whenever there's something that connects out with Satoshis identity which majority of those veteran people
are already that skeptical whether its real or just an another fake one.

Have you all also forgotten that blue check mark or tag can be bought from Elon Musk making it too difficult for anyone to identify the real Satoshi or not, besides this check mark of a thing is another means to promote scammers because they can go create account and impersonate whom they wanted to, the only thing he cares is the money he is making from Twitter and nothing much.

And again this shows how easily anyone of you can be scammed if it was a thing that relates with funds since you guys can't easily detects anyone releasing an update after bitcoin was created is trying to impersonate him because from my little knowledge immediately Satoshi succeeded creating bitcoin he made himself unavailable both in media and forum here, this made him stand strong enough for his decision for bitcoin to still remains in existence otherwise he can be tracked to know his location and immediately that happened then it turns to a serious treat to bitcoin growth, so I don't believe any news or information that was share several years or few years, except he come here to sign a message with his wallet before I can believe is information from Satoshi.

I agree but maybe they're just trying to believe that satoshi has came back but even with that, we all knew that he's not coming back.

That's what probably the account holder trying to do. He/she is trying to influence the newbies in the market and believing that he's actually Satoshi. LOL if Satoshi is still in there as of this moment, he'll probably refute that.

That blue check mark really means nothing if it's satoshi because anyone can do that. If Elon will just invade the privacy of that account and track who's really behind that account, we'll all know who's trolling the community. But I don't think he'll do that because it could also possibly him.  :P
But just as what everyone is thinking, that's Craig possibly behind the ownership of that account.

Welcome to the X platform. Create an account bearing the name of any famous personality, buy followers, and obtain a blue checkmark by paying a monthly subscription. Now, you have successfully entered the path of fame and misled people.

As the respected members who preceded me mentioned with their valuable contributions here, this is not the real Satoshi; instead, it's someone impersonating him for unknown purposes. As you can see, many accounts bear the name Satoshi Nakamoto on X, and all carry the blue checkmarks.

https://gcdnb.pbrd.co/images/jVir3BJKVUu0.png?o=1

It is good that you posted this topic as a reference for many new people who might be deceived into believing that this is the real Satoshi account on X.

I don't think this is Satoshi. There are sources stating the account was actually in the possession of someone from Craig Wright's team, so all this just means is that either Craig Wright is really Satoshi Nakamoto which is highly unlikely, or they are doing this to hype us up for nothing and further drive the notion that Satoshi is Craig Wright. Either way it's stupid and I don't think there's any good reason for Satoshi to even do something like this. First off he made it clear that he will not be part of the internet anymore after he built bitcoin, the 10+ years of radio silence is a massive sign for me. It's also worth noting that even if he does make his appearance in the internet again, he won't do so on sites where we can doubt who he is really, he'll post it here.

At least for those who have a pretty good rational level then things like that will be easy to understand :D But indeed for now there are still many people who are naive just because of the blue tick on Satoshi's name on Twitter they assume it is Satoshi because it has been verified even though when looking at fermentation especially for social media it is not a very easy thing to do.
When indeed he is the original Satoshi then why does he claim that he is Satoshi on new social media such as Twitter (X). To seek fame? it's impossible because when the goal is only fame then he only needs to open his account on this forum then the news will immediately explode no need to claim on other social media.

Lol that is not the real Satoshi. Probably just Craig Wright at it again. No idea how he got the account but maybe there was a name change or he bought it from someone. There is no way in hell that there is a real Satoshi account with only 100k followers. Cmon, guys? Get real. Blue checks mean nothing. Its twitter.

If I was a schizophrenic narcissist who sought after unearned riches, I would find find and buy the first twitter account lucky enough to call themselves Satoshi Nakamoto and then use it as fake evidence to trick others into making me the king of Bitcoin.

But I am not such a person. Craig Wright on the other hand... Who knows? ::)

This account owner won't be Satoshi at all. Because Satoshi always tried to hide himself, he won't reveal himself to Elon. Or who knows if Elon himself is Satoshi? LOL, kidding. I don't believe anyone on social media claims to be Satoshi Nakamoto. It seems luckily that Twitter users got the Satoshi username. And the Twitter blue badge is nothing at all. Anyone can buy it; it doesn't need to be a real person. They just need a phone number to verify humans. So I'm not going to waste time researching it.

Let just say Twitter (X) is the worst place to trust on information and personal profile because, it's very possible and easy for anyone to impersonate a reputable profile and can purchase the tag to get verified. This can easily misleading people who are not ruited into that platform as I believe some people are newbies on twitter and to whatever information they received over there they takes it into heart and worked on it that is why you found most people investing in some shitcoin that are easily promoted on twitter few months interval it turns to scam or worthless for investors. So personally I dislike twitter due to its nature of promoting scammers.

Can we say they want the atmosphere to be even more chaotic by allowing fake accounts to act in the name of SN. If newcomers to this forum can gain enlightenment from our awakened discussions, it would be different to trust platform x users if they didn't actually do research into the real truth.
Account user x response to a tweet made by a fake account managed by someone I don't want to mention is quite intelligent. Many people seem to know that it wasn't SN's writing.

Those who try to justify themselves with SN claims always lose at the court table with evidence that cannot make them win because the true truth cannot be conjured by deception.

It's so surprising to see how matured crypto ethusiast fall for fake write up on centralize platforms. What makes you think that Satoshi would pass information directly to the world through a centralize platform when there are forums that talks randomly about the foundation he/she had played down.

Ok that explains it. Initially I thought it was Elon Musk having fun (as he can now get access to all Twitter accounts) but this one is even more banal. Faketoshi is trying to impersonate Satoshi yet another time. I really think such misleading fake accounts should be banned or at least verified sign should be stripped.

Craig Wright is probably the person behind all these updated tweets, because it’s obvious that Satoshi won’t resort into tweeting anyway if he is really the person behind. Whether he’s already dead or still alive, I guess  claiming his spotlight again is not his thing. Because if he really want to do it, he must have done this years ago. So I guess whether it’s Elon Musk or Craig Wright that created the tweet, well their tweet do not create an impact to bitcoin anyway.

I agree with you! Satoshi doesn't want such kind of fame or presence on a social media platform and he/she/they will never use such platforms to share the information about Bitcoin in the form of tweets. It looks like that someone is controlling that account in order to get some followers in the name of Satoshi. The worst thing is that Elon Musk isn't disabling that account, and the controller of the account is posting anything he/she wants. They can't control Bitcoin and that's why they are pretending to be Satoshi.

This is believed only by the general public, who don't do research and think crypto is just about making money. Real cryptocurrency users know that Satoshi wouldn't have a Twitter account and wouldn't make statements there. It's ridiculous for Twitter to give a blue tick to everyone it comes across and act as if it were a real account. This blue tick thing is one of the biggest mistakes made by Elon Musk. It reduces the credibility of the site.

Well, they don't just give it to "everyone"; they give it to anyone who pays the $8 a month for Twitter Premium. The thing is prior to the change there was a lot of asshats that had blue checks from being verified as a public figure, which ultimately meant nothing as these accounts were frequently purchased by scammers and anyone with some sort of agenda.

Now the playing field is leveled in that it is more accessible to become "verified". They've also introduced gold checks for media organizations and businesses (those cost $1000 / month) and silver checks for government officials.

In any case, Satoshi would never shell out money for a blue check. That is perhaps even more ridiculous than him having a Twitter account in the first place.

Well, that's just how people are when it comes to anything they see on social media, not to mention from an account with a blue check on it. Anyone who can pay for the annual premium fee can enjoy having it and basically have their own immediately reputation and influence on social media. The very reason for this is it's because the blue check was only supposed to be for those verified accounts that were able to pass the required proof that they are indeed a public figure and are the actual individual they were claiming to be.

As Twitter revenue declined, M*sk made changes including a subscription service for a verified badge[1] with several of the badge colors we now see. It's a ridiculous decision to make that anyone can get a badge of any color as long as they're willing to spend money to pay a certain amount, but he's just targeting money like people who think crypto is only about money.

I can see the way many people are being carried away by mere chat they saw online. I am always happy when I wake up see check my wallet seeing some of the results of Satoshi on the entire cryptocurrency market. His vision was to make transactions decentralized without no need of any third party to confirm our trades for us just like we have in traditional bank. Although it may look like the government will never support this visiom but this is only going to take some times for this to be in better condition especially when the government started earning huge tax from cryptocurrency traders and companies.

That is very common, and one thinks that older people are more careful with money and that is not the case, it turns out that the people who scam the most are the older ones, but I believe that we still fall into those traps because of the shame of not asking if it is something safe or not, which seems very bad to me, you should always ask about anything, there are many scammers, when it comes to money you should be very jealous, ask any question if it is stupid, and it is also legal That an influential person who has so much money, why ask for more money from his followers, that's like the guy who scammed a Spanish woman, it turns out that the guy is like he was Brad Pitt's double and the Spanish woman sent him a large amount of money.
This is money, unless you have a lot of money to not care what it is spent, when I have to pay in Bitcoin or anything, I check absolutely everything, because it is very easy for us to lose money because we are in a hurry or because we are Excited.

Definitely you might be right. Might be Elon Musk misusing his power on Twitter. If a tweet comes from his real account claiming that he is Satoshi, many people won’t be satisfied with it. A signed message from one of his old addresses will definitely help us to clear the confusion. According to me, Satoshi didn’t want unnecessary fame and hence stayed out of the limelight, now all of a sudden he just coming out of nowhere, doesn’t at all suits me.

Its really difficult to ascertain whether or not it was Satoshi Nakamoto on that tweet. People can claim to be him as the whitepaper must have given them ample information as to what to post or say.

People have come up to make claims of being Satoshi, it will be easier for them to make tweets like him. I don't believe Satoshi left any trace and twitter might have a trace to him if it is truly satoshi.

I personally feel unsure about that because after all when we digest the events that happened for what Satoshi admits now that he still exists because if in the end he wants to be acknowledged it is actually not difficult to simply reactivate his bitcointalk account and it has been verified with full confidence but when it looks for other social media and starts saying that he is Satoshi and many are convinced only because of the blue tick that his account has I don't think I will believe it.
Indeed the blue tick is a form of verification but of course things like this can also be minimised especially with twitter (X) now that it is like a business field (not social media) blue ticks like this will be very easy to get.

Let's say if in the end he is right, then when he has received recognition that it is the real Satoshi then what will be done?

Many Bitcoin-related communities no longer accept the assertion made in such posts that they are Satoshi Nakamoto as true. We are all aware that the person who invented Bitcoin has no desire to publicly identify himself.

It follows that you shouldn't believe anyone who identifies themselves on Twitter or any other social media network. Elon Musk may have done it, but I'm not certain because anyone can claim to have done it.

You have proved 100% here it is fake satoshi, we know satoshi has been offline from all his social media for years. Since here is proof that fake Satoshi has ventured to sell his account for 3 bitcoins, it sounds ridiculous but he is a scammer. If he claims to be Satoshi, surely people in the crypto world will not believe who he is. There are many more accounts named Satoshi X that tweet as Satoshi. That's why we can't say for sure if Satoshi actually uses X and is still active there regularly. Since we found a proof here where the account agreed to sell 3 BTC then we can definitely assume that a fraudster created the account to scam people.

People who say they are Satoshi should not be trusted just because they have a blue check mark on their social media profile, especially since that check mark has lost value over the years. After all, getting a blue tick has become a commodity in this day and age when Twitter has changed from a social platform to a kind of business venue. Such a tick doesn't really prove that someone is who they say they are, and its pretty naive for people to accept claims without solid proof, isnt it?

If you look more closely, your main doubt is based on the easy idea that if Satoshi really wanted to be known, wouldnt the easiest thing to do be to log into his original Bitcointalk account? Lets suppose for a moment that it is the real Satoshi. What happens after the name is known by everyone? Will the story about Bitcoin change? Will what he says in the future change the way cryptocurrency works?

WTF is this trust list, and who cares about it and why would it affect bitcoin talk forum login ?! Does it check it ?

In fact, Satoshi Nakamoto account, satoshi was not banned, but locked.
https://bpip.org/Profile?p=satoshi

It was locked for security reason, by theymos.
If Satoshi Nakamoto want to get that account back, Satoshi must sign a message with PGP Signature.

LoyceV explained why it is shown as locked.

It doesn't affect anyone's ability to log in. The screenshot is a link to an external website which has no bearing on the actual forum itself. If you look at Satoshi's profile (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=3) on Bitcointalk, it looks exactly the same as the day he left (minus the Merit column and topics count).


Rumor has it that when Satoshi returns he will give all forum users 1 BTC for each merit they have  8)

This is why you should always have a BTC address in your profile. O0

I don't know about rumor and plans of Satoshi Nakamoto so I can not say.  :P

You know what to do with Satoshi's post. Never delete your Bitcoin wallets :D

I know he made a post, read below.

I do not believe all these things. This is not the first time that things have appeared that they try to attribute to Satoshi in order to create some kind of excitement and action. Some people like to create such media whirlwinds.
But the reality is that the real Satoshi never appeared in public.

This is just a rumor, after all Satoshi never promised publicly to give 1 BTC to all forum users based on their achievements. I think if he gave 1 BTC to all forum users based on calculations that are still active or frequently involved in discussions on the forum, that would be a lot of BTC that Satoshi would have to spend for that.

He once made a post as quoted by @dzungmobile, but he didn't mention anything more specifically there. I don't take this rumor too seriously, but I also couldn't resist 1 BTC from it.   8)

I have started to love x's (twitter's) "Readers added context" feature day by the day. The reason I appreciate it is because it's akin Bitcoin – no matter how smart you become, you can't outperform the network. This context resembles Bitcoin's longest chain, and in this game, it's all about who wins the race. :)

https://i.ibb.co/VqKsHLR/image.png

A few times I've swept lots of old private keys, only to discover the combined balance was zero... Sadly nobody ever accidentally sent BTC to my old addresses. He's right tho. What's 16 kb of data storage anyway.


Yes for now its been working great. Sadly it got implemented only a few weeks after Musk shared some fake news (https://www.cbsnews.com/sanfrancisco/news/musk-tweets-link-to-unfounded-conspiracy-theory-in-connection-with-pelosi-attack/) regarding a well-known politician's husband. Even ads are subject to community note fact checks.

They are just looking for a sensation using Sotoshi's big name, it's natural that many people claim to be Satoshi, even recently a Twitter account has appeared. Even though this clearly goes against Satoshi's principle of prioritizing anonymity, by saying he uses a Twitter account, it means that Satoshi's basic principle has indirectly been invalidated. So the conclusion is that Satoshi never appears to use social media, even if he does, it means it's not him, it's that simple to judge.

In fact, there was the most extreme news in the last years, someone said Elon Musk was Satoshi, this is clearly heretical.
