I've read the blog where a crepe shop claims that Dorian is someone who used Bitcoin in 2011 at their shop. I was suspicious at first, but it looks as though they at least have a confirmed Bitcoin transaction from around the time for approximately the amount stated. It's just one piece, but it is interesting. I know that the Bitcoins in the transaction might not trace to a known Satoshi address, but is it at all possible that he mined some along the way in various addresses? I'm seriously asking. Couldn't he have mined some before 2011 without it being clear to everyone it was him? I can tell by how smart the people are on this forum that someone will surely be able to tell me.
Pancakes for Satoshi?
It's also possible he purchased the coins at an exchange. This might mean he revealed his identity through his bank(no no, satoshi is too smart for that), or perhaps he used a different method to obtain coins from an exchange/person.

Well, ain't this motherfuckin' special! I waited till the all clear prior to downloading the file and unzipping it. Now, I learn that that wasn't a good idea. What am I up against here, guys? Missing bitcoins, possible suicide.

I'm solo mining and I got an accepted share.
How can I know for sure that I found one bitcoin block? I checked debug.log but nothing stands out. What should I be looking for?
Also, most importantly, in how much time, If I really did find the hash solution to that block, should I expect to see the bitcoins in my wallet? And please don't say after 100 blocks and 120 you will be able to spend them, because there is still nothing in my wallet after 150 extra blocks in the blockchain.
Is there a place you can tell if you found one, in transactions? listtransactions outputs blank. I don't think it's orphaned: shouldn't it go from accepted to stale/invalid if it is found to be orphaned (someone beat me to it/was already solved by the network) ?
Thanks a lot guys.
If listtransactions outputs blank, then it was likely orphaned, wow you must've been really unlucky to get an orphan. And no, a share can be accepted by the Bitcoin Daemon and that's what it'll say on the miner, but it can further reject it if somebody else mined the block.

Is 1200w even enough for 5 cards? But also check the temps, I've never ran a miner without increasing the fanspeed manually, since AMD cards never increase it enough.

I got a bit of a payout yesterday. The thing is I'm not sure how to tell when a block is found, or when a new round starts.
Don't worry about those details, but your speed is negligible you are wasting electricity. Mining Bitcoin requires serious hardware nowadays.

Too bad, I bought at 670, so obviously the price needs to go up. But don't let me stop you from buying right now.

So user data is in the zip? Ugh
No sensitive user data, I believe.

Curious, what is your drawing/graph software/library?

Retracing some of the coins, they appear to come from a big fat wallet, likely belonging to MtGox. Might be that Satoshi purchased BTC from MtGox to avoid spending his own and revealing his identity, meaning Satoshi was a user at MtGox at the time.

Honestly, I wouldn't trust a guy that couldn't even write sane documentation for the stratum protocol. This and the fact he delayed stuff so many times.

So even the most trustworthy person on the forum might have scammed...bad message to the people out there.

You know, with all those blue spheres, they kind of look like a particular male organ when stacked like that, if you know what I mean.

i can't believe that no one considers Nick Szabo as a possible lead. would be a remarkable coincidence if he wasn't involved in some way.
You should believe, the connection was made and then later rejected long before those neurons of yours made that thought.

They don't seem to be there for newer blocks. The last block is/was 46b49 in hex, tried looking for it in little or big-endian format, no dice.

and before anyone brainfarts out an idea that Arthur must be the bitcoin creator due to his better writing style of english, compared to his brother. please dont. just give up thinking you know who the bitcoin creator really is, he will never be found by searching a white pages/phonebook. so give up and get on with something constructive. If that really is Dorian's brother, his English is just outstanding.
it is.. proof at bottom of the page, (Arthurs driving licence) So the plot thickens? Arthur == Satoshi?

Supposedly Dorians brother, just posted this on Reddit: http://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/1zx2j3/dorian_satoshi_nakamoto_my_brother/Mis-quoting and blatant lies are unfortunately the journalistic world that exist today. I am just a humble handsome Asian man who is confused as to how a female asshole can become transferred onto my brother's rear end. But I saw with my own eyes from released video that there is a surgeon operating without an ethical or moral license to do exactly that. I and my immediate family were frightened due to obvious safety concerns, angered by our privacy being invaded and highly concerned over a gentle man trying, trying to recover from his life threatening health concerns. He was so private that he did not tell me when he was going through his health threats, only told me quietly when I visited the house in Temple City to take our mother for lunch. And I am his blood brother. I recall as a child that I looked up to Dorian who I believe is many times smarter than I am. He taught me at a toddler, protected me from harm and shared with me Manga, Japanese comic books and made up fantastic stories til I fell asleep. I am forever indebted to him in saving my life when I was 9 years old. I called the writer an asshole and told her to leave my brother alone but the whole world did not read that. Dorian can be stubborn and be an ass but then I am telling the whole world right here and now that I and 2 other people in the whole world can say that to him and we are forgiven by him. He can call me that too and has and maybe an idiot, but you know, he was probably right. How dare Leah demean and endanger my brother's health and safety and the safety of an 93 year old lady, our mother. Who is going to be responsible in their safety, her? I place her and Newsweek and all news organizations who joined in to be held responsible for their blatant and open carelessness. I understand that I will be mis-quoted and that I will be made out to be the brother who is the asshole remark guy. What I wanted to do is to plead to allow Dorian to live whatever life he has left to live it in dignity, peace and in private. To let him play with his trains and obsess over being treated to free lunches that he craves for some reason since his stroke. What's a real bitch (I am welling with tears right now) is that I cannot physically go to to see him and my mother to be of family support or call for fear of my immediate family being in physical danger. Odd! Who took care of Dorian's mother while he was in the hospital recovering from a stroke. Odd, still, that a brother, close or not, wasn't notified by him or some other sibling. I had a major accident on March first of this year, and within an hour all my siblings were aware of it, leaving me with nobody to tell... gulp! (rumor has it there's a thread on this forum on the subject) One does not recover from a stroke in a course of a small handful of weeks, ergo Ma Satoshi (I like the sound of that) had to have somebody take care of her given her age, hell, if it happened twenty years ago, she would still have been in her seventies. This brother's English is very very good, why is Dorian's not so good?
