Tl;dr anyone?
Sure. CIA and Gavin conspired to capture Satoshi. No explanation of why they would want to do that. Either CIA killed him, or he committed suicide in captivity. CIA convinced Gavin and Mr. Wright to pretend like Mr. Wright is Satoshi. No explanation of why they would want the world to believe that Mr. Wright is Satoshi. Thanks. Well I can truly say this is bs, and I didn't need to read it to know that, it would make for good show though.

If you have lots of coins in your online bitcoin wallet,will posting that address in public like forums,facebook etc make it more vulnerable to hacking? 1.Should such addresses be kept secret as much as possible to keep them away from hackers eye? 2.If kept secret,is there a way for others to know how many wallet addresses holds big amount if bitcoins?
If you have lots of coins in your online bitcoin wallet,will posting that address in public like forums,facebook etc make it more vulnerable to hacking?: Yes, just as posting pictures of a stack of gold or a box of diamonds will increase your odds of getting robbed. You are essentially making yourself a target. Someone could want to hack you now who previously wouldn't have known. 1.It depends on your privacy and storage techniques but usually YES 2.They will still be on the blockchain so technically yes. Nice, okay. Could you please explain how posting a public key would increase its vulnerability? - have you got an unknown method of spawning a private key from a public key? It depends on your definition of vulnerable, will his machine be more likely to have hacking attempts ? It is definitely a possibility or even the chances of it physically being taken. Does the public address give any information of the private key? Nope I see it like this, X user decides to flaunt his public address and show off 100 btc, 2 months go by he forgets a friend of his chats him on FB tells him to download a game or chat program, X does it because he knows this guy he went to highschool with him a 10 years back. The file is infected with some tools and X user gets hacked and loses his btc. Such an improbable way to make a point. The answer is no. I'm sure the OP said online wallet, even if it was a local wallet, what's to say it's not encrypted with sha256 and AES, are you going to tell me that both of those standards are also vulnerable? Keylogger watches the pc and time before btc address or amounts entered, gets the password and uses other hacking tools pretty standard thing. Yes keyloggers of course you would mention them, I'm sure your next scenario is that the OP in that situation wouldn't have an anti-virus/malware installed... You don't even need them, a simple firewalling utility tool like Zone Alarm to block outbound traffics is all you would need.

No it want increase its risk of getting stolen. You need to worry more about the trust between you and your wallet provider. No online wallet is hack proof, but levels of mitigating attacks do vary depending on your provider. Right now, blockchain.info is the only 99% provider that I've seen. They if I remember correctly, they give you the KEKey (key encryption key)

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CJnzWLBhnWw"Hey, I'm Tai Lopez, and today I'm going give you three free tips proving that Craig Steven Wright is Satoshi Nakamoto." Sir, I found this right before I have to go to bed. Very good tips, I hope you don't take this down anytime soon, I want to watch again. This is funny, usually I don't click on youtube ads but your video captured me. I'm thankful for you , Giving me a chance to see this video <3 Thank you so much ! . I'm only 15 , In 10th grade..And I sometimes get confused about my future . But this video and these steps you have given me and the rest of the people who seen this video it truly helps ! . Keep doing what you doing . Hey Tai, I don't know if you're a Christian but this video has just brought a testimony into my life that I want to share briefly. This morning, I decided to retreat to my bed, reading/watching anything to make me feel good, because I had woken up feeling a bit low. Your ad came up before another video and what at first seemed gimmicky but intriguing, led me to not 'skip' the ad. I clicked through to your site and watched this very video and felt the absolute truth you were speaking giving me a new found energy. My prayer point for this year has been to find my purpose. Watching this, I have finally written it down so now it feels real. Again, I'm Christian so I really believe this was a God send because about 20 mins into this video, I had to pause and pray pray pray! I haven't been able to pray with such might, the way I just did, in months. So I just thank God for using YouTube and using you bring me back to fellowship with God and to boost my life in a little way. I'm so glad I came across this. I am only 20 but I know that everything you said in this video is so real. I am about to graduate and right off the back of my degree I'm going to be in debt. That's how this system has set the world. I'm determined to break through that pyramid with my purpose! im only 12 but I'm not stupid like most of kids and I fond this so helpful and also I watched it all Gavin Andresen: I just got back from London where I was convinced that Tai was the real deal by the time he got to his second tip, stopping him from expressing the third tip outta fear of my head exploding. Jon Matonis: After my meeting with Tai, I went back to my hotel room and said to my wife, "Honey, you're not gonna believe who I met today. I'll give you three guesses. But first sign this NDA."

Where did you buy the bitcoins from, and have you got any digital receipts from the vendor?
|

It is seriously 10 BTC and 50 BTC.
Dang! That's crazy for me. So you have to donate 50 BTC to have the usertitle? Yup, although I don't think many do currently. Okay. Thanks for explaining. Now, one more question. I see people with 1.7k+ posts that are Sr. Members and you have 700+ posts and you are a Legendary Member. How does that work? Is it donation based? Its activity based. The more active you are, the more your rank increases.

Well Bitcointalk must stand, for all our sakes, and finance cannot be it's downfall.

Summary, TL;DR: Crack White and Gavin Andresen r either on Crack or Insane or both. Crack White is NOT Satoshi, he even stole his blog post and failed to simply sign a message.
Story is too intense, this is just nonsense
~CfA~
Well said.

Quick question — can someone please tell me what has happened to Gavin. When I first discovered Bitcoin, this guy was a worshipped God, now, he's an outlaw??
easily paid off to say what is needed LOL. Gavin has lots of coins. He actually had so much he managed to give away 10,000 BTC via the faucet he set up back in the day to promote bitcoin (which was dispensing 1BTC a go). Could you prove this, that's too simple. "back in the day" Bitcoin was unrecognized, and worthless, give us the address these transactions were sent from, proving it's Gavins, so we can evaluate the price per btc at that time period, and reevaluate the worth of the address (at least what is left in it) at this time period? "Back in the day" a group of kids purchased pizza worth about £3.00 for 10,000k btc. I'm really trying hard to see your point.

I was afraid when I saw the thread's title but your vision of Satoshi isn't that bad, even if not excat. I like this idea, even if I never coded a single line . teddybu you're very important, this community wouldn't exist without people like you making lots of informative posts to keep it alive and kicking. You're Satoshi indeed.

Well he made the wrong scam decision with Bitcoin and Gavin. I guess we should all sit back with AgentofCoin, and some popcorns as his forgotten past is unraveled

except by your argument, Craig Wright IS Satoshi....
By my arguments, everyone is Satoshi. Bitcoin does not discriminate, nor should you or I

Wright is not Satoshihttps://www.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/4hj1xu/why_i_declined_to_verify_sns_identity_two_weeks/About two weeks ago I was contacted and asked to offer security advice for a project. I was asked to sign an NDA in order to discuss the project itself, something I am reluctant to do, in general. Once I received the NDA however, it became obvious that the project was related to verifying the identity of Satoshi Nakamoto. I immediately declined the offer, declined to participate and declined to sign the NDA.
I'm sure many people will think I was wrong to decline the "opportunity" to verify SN's identity. From my perspective, the request for me to verify his/her/their identity is in itself an appeal to authority. It is replacing public cryptographic proof with endorsement by a third party. If SN wants to "prove" their identity, they don't need an "authority" to do so. They can do it in a public, open manner. To ask people in the space who have a reputation to stake that reputation and vouch for SN's identity raises many red flags in my mind.
I don't know if Craig Wright is SN. I don't care and I don't want to know.
As I have expressed many times in the past, I think the identity of Satoshi Nakamoto does not matter. More importantly I think it serves to distract from the fact that bitcoin is not controlled by anyone and is not a system of Appeal-to-Authority. Identifying the creator only serves to feed the appeal-to-authority crowd, as if SN is some kind of infallible prophet, or has any say over bitcoin's future.
Identity and authority are distractions from a system of mathematical proof that does not require trust. This is not a telenovela. Bitcoin is a neutral framework of trust that can bring financial empowerment to billions of people. It works because it doesn't depend on any authority. Not even Satoshi's.
Back to work. So, Gavin had no qualms with signing the NDA, eh? I have found SatoshiThis is true. I have found Satoshi. We all know Satoshi is a group of people, a group of people who believe in the concept of decentralization, not only to break borders, but to tain the outlawness of the financial sector, which has destroyed billions of peoples lives for centuries. Satoshi Nakamoto is those of us who mine Bitcoins, those of us who support Bitcoin projects, those of us who use Bitcoins, those of us who convince people to use & accept Bitcoins, those of us who run Bitcoin nodes & offer our blockchain as a service, those of us who buy Pizzas with Bitcoins, those of us who carry dusts of Satoshi's in our wallets, those of us who will try to bash/correct or ignore this post and those of us who enjoy Bitcoin forums. Keeping to the decentralised nature of our technology, Satoshi is all of us who is reading this message today.

So to summarise, Wright's evidence is worthless, Gavin's statement is also worthless, and the only tangible evidence to believe (this is not a joke) is a written prove from the BBC — I'm going back to bed.

If this fraud is willing to sign various message for these lying media mobs, brag about who he's satoshi, why wouldn't he login to his account on Bitcointalk (create a new one if needed) and sign various messages for us to verify? — if the secret is out, all he has to do is sign this opinion that I've posted, adding “My name is Wright, and I I'm Satoshi" — as a text.
