Financial Times: Satoshi = Craig Steven Wright reveal coming 7-14 April 2016

[magemist]

What sort of proof would be needed to be classed as solid proof that he is satoshi?

A signed message from his fat bitcoin wallet 

[owm123]

If he can sign a message, he might be Satoshi. If he cannot sign a message, he is definitely not Satoshi.

Yes, he and this "news" are very legit. Its 1 April after all, so we know this is "legit news" day \s.

Okay so from April 7 to April 14 Wright will publicly perform a cryptographic miracle(!!!) \

Hilarious...cryptographic miracle.  Didn't we go through this last year with this guy?  April Fools for sure.

What will happen if he fails to prove he is the real Satoshi Nakamoto? Can he be held responsible for misinformation and spreading lies in the Bitcoin community? I think his reputation will be finished if his claims don't turn out to be true. So many people want to be celebrities by claiming to be Satoshi it's so funny.

What will happen if DOES sign those addresses? Will you be able to accept the facts or will you try to deny? I guess even if he signs those keys we will still have some folks staying in denial.

[ImI]

Oh come on!
That guy is a hoax! We all know that.
Never ever is he Satoshi.

have you seen him talking at conferences? he pretty easily dominated everyone at the podium (mostly he was connected via video) and i noticed some very surprised faces of well known bitcoin devs as he talked about technical stuff and future vision for bitcoin as a whole.

its anything but "a known hoax".

If Satoshi is one person, i really respect him more everyday. Creating something that amazing and not revealing himself inspite all these people trying to take credit for his work. He must be a very wise man. Perhaps more than we often think.

Regarding the article, we all know who he is or who he is not.

[exstasie]

I sure hope it's a bunch of fluff. Satoshi's anonymity is a great strength for bitcoin. Compare to Vitalik Buterin, who is Ethereum's biggest central point of failure and cooptation.

I highly doubt Criag Wright is Satoshi even if he was he would keep himself anonymous. It will also be pointless to show up now as there is a lot of bitcoin haters around. He would probably not reveal himself until it is a big thing and even then he still may not show him/her self.

[MingLee]

I'm doubtful that Craig Wright really is Satoshi, but I guess it is always possible.

We'll see, but I almost want to say that it s just someone cashing in on some potential fame.

its highly likely that all this bitcoin civilwar and folks acting like the keeper of the holy bitcoin grail provoked him to not longer stay silent. it must be pretty hard to watch all those discussions and being forced to stay silent.

[ensjovis]

I should read more about this but just want to remember being correct on this one, Craig Steven Wright is Satoshi Nakamoto. T-shirts are already ordered and we're planning a big party for the upcoming rally.

Maybe he can dump some coins also so people can buy cheap.

BREAKING NEWS: Craig Steven Wright reveals home-made video from 2008 calling himself Satoshi Nakamoto while visiting the Broadway Show - Mamma Mia!

[Hirose UK]

on the off-chance that they will say that he's really satoshi, I don't think think many bitcoiners will believe it without a solid proof.

I also will not believe it without a solid proof. You know, we just can guess someone is Satoshi because he is smart, but that's not really a proof. we need more.
but I'm wondering why Satoshi would announce that he is the real one.
