Craig Wright is trying to stage himself as Satoshi, that he and his sockpuppets have done some great work to be revealed in future. Then he joins Gavin on his shitcoin blockchain and they start to dump their own initial investments after which the project will be abandoned.
There are two possibilities: - Wright is Satoshi and Gavin is sincere.
- Wright isn't Satoshi and Gavin is a part of a conspiracy.
Anyhow, the price is going down. Whoever was behind this idea, well played. You can easily fool the sheep of the community. The "proof" currently provided, is no proof at all. I have the proofs. Signed messages will be released soon.
Go away.

Stop opening the thread about this scammer. This is not Satoshi. Do your research before you open additional, useless threads. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fi.imgur.com%2FJlXU2CA.png&t=663&c=i1sgqLKzSmKlvw)
Craig Wright's signature is worthlessYes technology confirmed he is Craig Wright an australian, Reuters and BBC confirmed, what will go on now with the price of bitcoin, hopefully not a decrease in the near term.
Bullshit. Nothing was confirmed. Gavin, is either lacking skepticism due to a cognitive bias (Craig Steven Wright just happens to be a big blocker*) or is willing to use this fraud to further his agenda. Either way, I lost even more respect for Gavin with this blog post.
Cognitive bias it is. There are even people that are part of his "cult" stating that if Gavin said it, that is proof enough. ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif)

Why is Gavin Andresen backing his claims?
Where is he backing those claims? I'm not going to read that whole thread. I've found it. The only people who support this are Matonis and Anderes (and their credibility just went down the drain). Are he really the one that create bitcoin??? Any proofs??? He must provide any solid proofs
There are no proofs, just circumstantial talk.

Next time it would be wise to read: Craig Wright's signature is worthless, than to support scammers like Craig. There are two possibilities: - Wright is Satoshi and Gavin is sincere.
- Wright isn't Satoshi and Gavin is a part of a conspiracy.
The second one is interesting. ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif)

How many times do we have to tell you these things? There is no evidence that correlates to him being Nakamoto. He faked the PGP key as well. He just wants to take credit for Bitcoin even though he has absolutely no proof. As i have already said i just watched it and think he is legit, and i have done so since his name was first put in the hat.
No.

I never understand why people ask questions that either can't be answered, or are not worth answering. Basically, you will just end up guessing. Mostly adults, kids under 18 generally just want to dick around on their phones on instagram, too stupid to understand something as complex as bitcoin
I disagree, because we have seen quite the number of people that have a limited understanding of Bitcoin and yet keep posting around here. They don't necessarily have to be adults.

Ever typed something out then the site fail to load then click back to see your comment gone ?
Yes. This can be very painful if the post is longer and well written. Well if you had the Drafts page her already bookmarked then click it.. problem solved ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif) How many guys here know that ? I'm certain that the number of users that are aware of it is not that high. They could just re-position the drafts on the new forum to make it much more visible.

Well, i have a brand new registration, though have been reading some threads for about a year. As a newbie i can tell that reading throu this topic took about 5 mins and forming a readable post about 1 more minute. And this is definitely NOT the longest and most complicated topic on the forum. So i am quite comfortable with this posting limit, as i have more to read here than to post.
Finally, a 'new member' that confirms it. The situations in which one would need to post under 6 minutes are rare, especially at the lower ranks. As far as any longer thread is concerned: If you are able to formulate a post in a very short amount of time, you are most likely just spamming for some reason (e.g. signature spam). However, I can image a situation in which the limitation might be problematic, e.g. one in which a newbie creates a thread and asks a question or two. However, this would imply that someone would both read and reply to the thread within 6 minutes as well (ergo the limitation 'comes down to less').
Update: Rewritten parts of post.

Great! 4 blocks to go, I'll be watching the block explorer closely. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2F49.media.tumblr.com%2Fcde20fc2b5009bf8b18cfdcb8ae5188e%2Ftumblr_noys8mkgT11s0my1wo1_250.gif&t=663&c=bFNIsxHsRzNwtw)

Is this still available? I want to try it out as I'm currently experimenting with a website. If this is the case, please send me a PM.

I did read this somewhere recently; I was a bit surprised. However, a single member is not enough to cause a wider effect. So let's assume that each member of the parliament gets about 1btc each and somehow people start adopting btc... does that mean the btc might sell for $500 this year, or am I just being too optimistic?
Take your useless speculation to the appropriate section because: 1) All Parliament members will definitely not acquire Bitcoin just because 1 member suggested it. 2) The price in USD is irrelevant. 1 BTC will always be equal to 1 BTC.

This is definitely not something that should be welcomed. "Those who would give up essential Fungibility, to purchase a little temporary Price Increase, deserve neither Fungibility nor Price Increase."
The quote can be altered for any features that Bitcoin currently possesses (e.g. decentralization). Fungibility is critical, and they wont use this to catch criminals, but to undermine bitcoins stability. I hope the bitcoin developers can help us make bitcoin really fungible!
I concur. This will most likely be improved in the future. If there could be more people working on fungibility instead of caring so much about Core v Classic drama, stuff like this could be avoided.
The blame goes to the people who wasted everyone's time trying to take over with a controversial HF.

Please stop bumping your thread so frequently. What makes matters worse is that you actually made several off-topic posts in your thread where you request a removal of your ban.

In my uneducated view SegWit is brilliant. Not only does it solve the blocksize problem in the short term, but it allows for a whole range of enhancements that will allow Bitcoin to become an intelligent programmable payment service that is independant of the fraudulent current banking system.
Your 'uneducated' view is correct, which is quite unusual (as people tend to spread false information). Segwit does come with quite a few benefits, the added capacity increase is just a bonus. It should be (hopefully) merged soon. Lightning doesn't have trusted third parties, so if "21Inc's LN" does, it isn't Lightning.
He has been spreading that piece of miss information for quite some time now even though several people have pointed out (on several occasions) that it is false.

Not really. This is the biggest cryptocurrency forum in the world. Everyone knows it. Hackers assume that Theymos has a small fortune in BTC from donations and ads published on bitcointalk. So it will be easy for him to pay 'small fee' of 10 BTC to prevent DDOS. But paying anything is not the answer and solution but instead dead end and invitation to another DDOS.
I doubt that this is the case. The sender could probably be part of some larger group that is sending out these emails everywhere. Just recently, it has been discovered that a group has been doing this and due to receiving coins on a single address (some 'people' pay and some don't) they have not launched a single attack (free Bitcoins?). Anyhow, the forum should be fine for now. DDoS is just a temporary issue.

Since there are more then 10 numbers, and could only use 0 to 9 for single number entries, we will figure a way to expand this. thanks
Should not be a problem. Just use the last two numbers of the block hash. It might be worth 'pre-picking' a few blocks since it might completely miss the numbers in the raffle.

Thats because the amount of classic nodes has went up over the last few weeks, i think there is well over a thousand now.
Wrong. It has been on the decline over the past two months. It was hovering around 2000 (0.12.0 nodes). That's nice that we finally won this battle.
This "battle" will never end. The next controversial HF is just behind the corner, maybe it will be called "Bitcoin Original", or "Bitcoin Reloaded", you never know. ![Roll Eyes](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/rolleyes.gif)
