seeing the OP stipulates "legal" this whole thread is pointless as there is no legal way of getting 50k euros out of China, several are suggesting ways to not get caught ie using bitcoin but no one has or could mention an actual legal way....cause there aint one.
and if someone could find a legal way i'd be most happy to hear about it myself.
Buying and selling bitcoin between private person is legal in China (mostly because there is no way to stop it from happening), that's how Chinese exchanges managed to operate legally: They use many private accounts to receive deposits and send out withdraw buying and selling bitcoin is legal in China without having to do many private account stuff, but none of thats the illegality i'm talking about in my replies. |

however in this case you can prove its not him with a 30sec google search and it has little to do with the lack of any key Please explain. How can you 100% prove that it's not him from a google search? What are you google searching? Are you analyzing his previous writings? by a quick search of what that email has been used for before. |

Problem with that post is you can't prove its *not* him.
For all we know he dumped all the priv keys for everything when he decided to quit, wallets, accounts, PGP key and all. We've all done similar at some point in our lives, made a decision with a sure mind, and removed all ability to recover it, burned the bridge so to speak.
If those accounts had indeed been compromised, I think it's fair to assume that the attackers of those accounts would "chime in" as Satoshi more than just twice. Any activity on those accounts has the power to influence, or at least sow the seed of doubt/FUD which the attackers could then profit.
Yet since he left, we've seen 1 occurrence to clear Dorian's name, and this today expressing his disappointment on the block size issue. If anyone other than Satoshi held control of those accounts, I wager that position would be milked dry for personal gain.
I see what you mean, but we can prove it's not him if he doesn't sign it fast. Its impossible to prove that someone isn't that person, its impossible to prove a falsehood in this manner, only truth can be proven. If I made a post, yet everyone said it wasnt me, could you prove I didn't make the post when I in fact did? You can't its impossible, you can only assume its false. We all have no idea if Satoshi still has his keys to anything or not, regardless of what he advised us to do regarding wallets. He may have had a fire at home and lost access to his backups? or any other number of "natural" ways to lose his keys. A lot of events can happen over 5 years since he left, so you can not categorically claim that he still has his keys. however in this case you can prove its not him with a 30sec google search and it has little to do with the lack of any key |

You keep using that word, i dont think you know what it means
Maybe you can go and live in China USA to understand what dictationship censorship propaganda means
Fixed it for you.  fixed it for you both In (mainland) China, are the names of the two heroes in the above picture renowned and appropriately celebrated? I have been led to believe they are not, but perhaps that's just "USA propaganda." Please correct my misapprehension and improve my understanding.  in the US there's a label for civilians standing in the way of tanks; terrorists and iraq had weapons of mass destruction (and of course the US wouldn't be armed to the teeth itself with WMDs, but if it did it as leader of the free world has every right too )and with osama in charge iraq destroyed the world trade center ....  |

It's a pitty what had happen to this community.
Right now what we're doing is self defeating. I support bigger blocks as well. How we achieve that I don't know. My wish would be we could continue to use Bitcon core for that. But that seems to be very unlikely.
I just know that I am completely agains the 1MB cap and this whole Blockstream shit.
And while we continue to throw mud each other these guys are laughing.
i think people here (especially Mike and Gavin) underestimate how much of a war this will become, and the end the war won't be about block size |

what on earth is bitcoinxt? did someone come up with yet another genius idea to save the bitcoin world?
Yep! Exactly that's what happened. Gavin and 3% (as of today) of the BTC community want bigger blocks for making BTC future proof at all cost. Unfortunately a hard fork needs to be done to achieve this, and most of the community dislike the idea of a hard fork. Despite all objections from the comm unity and the rest of the core developers Gavin released his stuff and Theymos moved it into the altcoin section (because of it's an alternative blockchain). (Actually at this moment it's only an alternative client, but when 75% of the nodes are running XT the fork will happen.) thanks for the heads up. and theymos' actions was right, bitcoinxt is nothing more than an altcoin at this point. doubt they will see consensus any time soon. though if bitcointalk was consistent with their action they'd ban bitcoinxt talk here altogether like they did with bitcoin scrypt. |

@fallout4
3) Unknown to you because you haven't been around very long, back when iGotSpots started launching his first coins there was a badass person rumored to have been one of the early Bitcoin miners that actually helped bring Bitcoin into the GPU mining phase that would literally exterminate scam coins on launch using mind boggling hashing power. I can't quite remember exactly who it was but this person publicly stated at the time that iGotSpots was clean and received a pass from that person. I think Microguy was another.
hmmm that persons name slips my memory too but i'd say on a few occasions their activity cost me some coinage  but mircoguys entertaining video helped ease the pain  so we is all square |
