Inside information anyone?
If indeed he's not Satoshi as the majority of the community as well as the Bitcoin core folks say, why is this guy doing this?

he is not satoshi. all he done was convert an old existing input script into base64.. he did not sign anything nor did he prove anything. you too can be satoshi (by doing what Craig wright did) go to https://blockchain.info/tx/828ef3b079f9c23829c56fe86e85b4a69d9e06e5b54ea597eef5fb3ffef509fe?show_adv=truecopy the input script 3045022100c12a7d54972f26d14cb311339b5122f8c187417dde1e8efb6841f55c34220ae002206 6632c5cd4161efa3a2837764eee9eb84975dd54c2de2865e9752585c53e7cce01 google "hex to base64" paste in the input script convert MEUCIQDBKn1Uly8m0UyzETObUSL4wYdBfd4ejvtoQfVcNCIK4AIgZmMsXNQWHvo6KDd2Tu6euEl13VT C3ihl6XUlhcU+fM4= and now you have what appears to be a signature that is linked to satoshi funds.. and you never even needed a private key do to it ask youself did you use a public key or private key. did it involve any sha or ECDSA process at all.. NO i advise everyone to go to the media, contact section and message them of the fraud that craig wright is. the only reason he is doing this is because he scammed some people into thinking he owns 1million bitcoins which he doesnt, but that blind ignorance caused those people to give him collateral based on the lie.. and now they are calling in the debt.. (australian government handedhim millions of australian dollars.) he fled australia to avoid immediate prosecution and is now trying to use the media as proof of ownership. without ever actually proving ownership so please will everyone convert hex to base64 all the inputs of all satoshi funds to prove we are all satoshi.. craig wright deserves to be locked up because its not just identity fraud. the main thing is the millions of fiat he has scammed out of australian government and private investors using that id fraud, he has no bitcoin funds from 2009.

Here's another interesting suggestion Craig gets public to believe he is Satoshi,
"Satoshi" backs Gavin's Ideas getting them into the block chain.

He is doing it to get attention, or to intentionally fool the mainstream media, so that they can demonize bitcoin further.
He might be working with the mainstream media just to demonize bitcoin further and to spread lies and crap.
That guy deserves 0 attention, however all threads here are talking about him,

Maybe he is trying to force the real Satoshi's hand. If he take all the plaudits and starts to make important decisions regarding Bitcoin, then maybe the real Satoshi would be forced to show his face to stop him.
Just a theory, but it could be the case.

you heard he just wants to be left alone, so solution; ann to the world you are satoshi (maybe plan for outcome wasn't thought out so well, like maybe "i'm not satoshi" would have had the desired effect, but what do i know verses this genius).

Maybe to use that 1 million Bitcoin as collateral against someone giving him money. Then he dissapears and poof can't get the bitcoin.

Can you elaborate a bit more? Can you sign a message with a bitcoin address that satoshi owned? I can't really believe that since one would have to check past transactions from that address to prevent being scammed by a wrong signature. Is it a risk at all?

No, that's not what Craig Wright did. He didn't actually sign anything. He just converted an old input to base64 to make it look like a signature. That's why no one (except the so-called "journalists") is buying it.

If true then Gavin fell deep.

Who cares? The BTC myth disappeared and the people who intended to use BTC for "i don't know what reason", will stay away this is ANOTHER scandal which will bring no benefits to BTC but only more attention from authorities and more regulation over exchangers

Either there was a more elaborate ruse by Wright, or Gavin really wasn't paying attention and dropped the ball.

Either there was a more elaborate ruse by Wright, or Gavin really wasn't paying attention and dropped the ball. I suspect Gavin (and Jon) got scammed by a prepared/staged hoax, though it is suspicious that Wright's comments show a strong bias and agenda that aligns with Jon and Gavin. But the failure to publicly publish a meaningful signature for ALL of us to verify to our own satisfaction makes it 99% certain this claim is rubbish.

Intention is likely to buy bitcoin at a lower price, or make it lower value (as it is already happening). And probably that because a raise is expected afterwards.

What kind of decision? And furthermore Bitcoin is no dictatorship. Just because this guy say " Do X!" doesn't mean the community will support that. Bitcoiners have become extremely cautious over the last years to situations like this one. Therefore this guy will have no power, even he should be satoshi, what I highly doubt.

its possible. Whatever they wanna do with the real satoshi its up to them but the millions he got in his wallet is sure good to acquire. don't you think the big bank have pt a bounty to find satoshi? so this craig is up to it.
