Craig Wright's Agenda

[~Bitcoin~]

I think gavin has been fooled by craig but i doubt how a brillient cryptographer like gavin will be fooled by this signing thing.
What craig has provided as evidence can be like this https://twitter.com/petertoddbtc/status/727161946689159169

he should do this:

[Kprawn]

This guy must be crazy to claim he is Satoshi.... Whoever wants to claim that, must be a little bit crazy. Who needs that much attention, when you might be the owner of more than 1 million bitcoins? There are

also some people who would do anything to discredit the creator of this technology and would even plant false information of him in the media to taint his reputation. Then there is the thief's and hackers to

deal with, and loads of scammers... Nah, I would never want to be in Satoshi's shoes, when he eventually gets exposed or identified.

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.

So what gavin stated, like that he signed a message that he personally chose for him to sign, was a lie then? If true then Gavin fell deep.

Not too sure about that message, as the "signature" for that one hasn't been made public (nor is it ever likely to be).  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.

I thought about that possibility too. Though it would be a big conspiracy theory.

Assuming gavin and bitcoin classic should lose credibility then how about letting gavin claim that he found satoshie? He might have been scammes somehow, even though it is hard to imagine for me how this could be done, then let it do by someone openly support classic and then let t all die as a fake. Gavin would lose credibility, he lost already his status as core dev and that would be it...

But I think that's too far fetched.

trying to lure the real satoshi maybe?  or to push his big blocks agenda to further centralize bitcoin? ( gavin seems desperate to get a block increase so i wouldnt be surprised if he went as far to get his point accross)

The big blocks agenda will be done because the big exchangers like Coinbase, their twin brother Bitstamp, BTC China, OK Coin, Circle, Xapo, Bitfinex want big blocks   what are you going to do if the biggest exchangers will fork to "big blocks" BTC? "

will you not use it anymore. come on! be realistic

[ghost15]

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)

copy the input script

google "hex to base64"
paste in the input script
convert

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.

I know that  I'm satoshi Nakamoto but I never claim it because i prefere anonym mode.
that's what make BTC myterious.

[martinacar]

There are all kind of mentioned reasons and why he did this, I really do not know what I have to believe honestly.
I think he maybe is but it would be a bit weird for the other hand if he is...

[From Above]

It almost seems like he unfortunately wanted to commit suicide , not physically but mentally tho
dunno why any1 want to do this but crack is a hell of a drug and crack wright knows that

~CfA~

These exchanges have been wanting bigger blocks for more than a year so i ask why are they not forking? what are they waiting for? A controversial hard fork would very likely undermine confidence in the whole system and send the price back to 2 digits and these companies are well aware of that. So no it's not as simple as you think. come on! be realistic

[sktrdie]

One freaky, and completely unfounded, hypothesis is that Wright is Satoshi, and was pressured by government to have experts prove he was satoshi (for tax reasons), but is willingly playing stupid publicly and releasing a blatantly foolish post to keep his anonymity and let the world think he's not Satoshi.

Yes I know, I have a very creative mind

They will this year for sure. they have to prepare everything and they come with an announcement over night:)

the users will have no choice and they will stick with the new e-currency created

I don't think you understand the economics behind bitcoin or maybe you just a troll

On Dec 8, 2015 Craig wright was publicly outed as a hoaxer/scammer, 'Gavin-Bloatcoin-Andresen' has ether gone full retard or is colluding with Wright but for what I couldn't say.
Wright was/is getting paid for Bitcoins he dose not own held in a trust  that were used as collateral to take out loans that he used to invest in a company.  He has a financial reason to convice people he is SN.
Google is your friend use it!

[Cryddit]

Australia was recently (within the last 2 years) investigating a ransomware case involving the movement of a lot of Bitcoins.

During the investigation, Mr. Wright was questioned as to where his ability to spend large amounts of Bitcoin originated. 

Wright claimed to have been one of the earliest miners. 

This would be unexpected.  Not impossible, because it was always possible for someone to join in mining at any time.  But unexpected.  There was no communication from him to anyone involved as far as I know, and I don't think he's on any of the mail lists where Satoshi discussed it.

And now it's a bit later and the claims are larger... Maybe he's doubling down on a challenge to the authenticity of his story?

Time to cook some popcorn, I guess.

i think you have horse glasses. what economy are you talking about? the black market one?  BTC is full, FULL of shits. I think you are just a tinny "speculator" and nothing more. the REAL base of BTC is the black market not "speculators"

The BTC is based on HYIPs, fake forex and many derivates from these ... without them, BTC would worth pennies.

The fact that the British Biased Corporation was involved should make every one suspicious that a government agency is somehow involved here.

In this day of social media, it doesn't matter which agency is involved. Everything is going to be analyzed threadbare.
