Imho this is not Satoshi Nakamoto. Satoshi would not act like this.
When/if he decides to reveal his identity there will be no doubts about.
Please God, let Satoshi Nakamoto be alive and healthy.

I'm not 100% convinced yet, but there is enough circumstantial evidence to consider the possibility.
I think even if he would step up and say "I'm Satoshi Nakamoto", a lot of Bitcoiners wouldn't believe it. Furthermore, some may see him as a threat. In the few years Bitcoin exists, some Bitcoiners took Satoshi's paper as some kind of techno-bible: "But Satoshi wrote..." Just imagine how their world may shake if Craig Steven Wright could say something differing from what's in the paper... But most of all: Funny how Michele Seven would have made a fool out of herself... Hahaha, I agree. Satoshi has become more than a person, and as much as his identity is a mystery, it'd be hard for anyone to digest if any person were to claim or prove to be satoshi, because people can be a disappointment when you know them in real life, maybe he's better of as a mystery, makes him loved and respected for eternity.

Wright it obvious that is simple a scammer.
Why do you think that? Aren't Wired evidences good?

I think this is closer to the truth:
Wright believed Kleiman was either Satoshi or had a huge stash of coins from the earliest days of Bitcoin. Being the scammer type that he seems to be, when Kleiman died he thought he'd have a chance to get hold of these coins by contacting his father and scoring himself a massive windfall. Also, with Kleiman dying it allowed Wright to jump on his bandwagon and claim that they were both Satoshi, the kind of thing a narcissistic ego would do, to try and stake a claim to any bitcoins Kleiman had.
The more it unfolds, the more it seems like Wright is just a scammer,as his world collapsed as the tax authorities closed in on him and his $50m+ Australian scam from government he saw this Kleiman angle as his only chance to solve his inevitable problem. Now that it's all coming crashing down he will end up bankrupt and maybe in prison.
As a scammer would, he tried to fix one scam by pulling off another, luckily it wont ever work in a world of crypto proof, and he will get what's coming to him. I think this Satoshi claim is the last desperate chance he had as he knew the end was nigh as the authorities closed in.

like a retard, I posted my opinion before actually reading the article, and now after doing so I think they have a very good argument that they found him. It should be interesting what develops, and I'll keep following this thread.

Not Dave Kleiman's father, but brother, Ira Kleiman. Also, Craig Wright penned papers with Dave Kleiman up to at least 2008. What I've been able to uncover is that Craig had no public mentions of Bitcoin prior to 2013 that are legitimately documented.

Unlike a retard, I firmly believe your BCT's pseudonym has been spiking your purchases. It should be interesting to see what develops in your subsequent postings as we'll continue to follow your progress.

The story is the most convincing one of Satoshi's identity so far, but there are still some flaws and open questions which should be answered first. Would bet all my Bitcoins that he is not Satoshi

So? Paul Hogan has lived in the US forever but there was still a high profile court action against him by the ATO which lasted for years. The UK isn't a barrier to either administrative or criminal action against Wright, and he clearly still has assets in Australia. The UK will extradite, and if Wright is on an Australian passport he's kind of screwed because it can be easily frozen in the event of insolvency and/or criminal charges. The ATO has considerable coercive powers, as does AUSTRAC.

All I can say is that this is Bitcoin. I don't believe it until I see six confirmations.

There is one major flaw in your theory. If Kleiman is indeed Satoshi and he died in 2013, how did he pen the "I am not Dorian" post?

This is a really interesting question. Have been any logic answer or good explanation given yet? The question is, who invited him to this conference, so this person should know that he has something to do with Bitcoin. Now we have to wait and see if this will be another story of Dorian Nakomoto. We still have not enough hard evidence pointing towards Wright. His background is one thing but so they said about Dorian. But I gotta say that all facts presented by Wired seems pretty convincing so far.
One question which is yet unanswered: Nobody seems to have known him, but nevertheless, he was invited to the Vegas-conference. Why? Why was he invited, when the other participant's socks were of more interest to Michele?

I would highly appreciate it if OP closed this thread. It's been proven that he's nothing more than a fraud. We're probably going to see a lot of similar stories in the future (we've had some in the past). It's not worth discussing it further.

Anybody that thinks a egotistical, self-promoting, no-nothing loser like Craig Wright is Satoishi is an idiot. The guy is an Australian for heaven's sake. Australia? Remember? The country with the rabbit-proof fence? They are idiots. Craig Wright can't even program his VCR, forget about computers.
