Craig Wright Claims He's Bitcoin Creator Satoshi -- Experts Fear An Epic Scam

Peter Todd, a core Bitcoin developer, said the “proof” was “like photocopying someone else’s signature on a publicly available document and claiming it’s proof you are them”. “Because the proof provided is non-existent, and Craig has a history of scams, this could simply be part of a bigger scam.”

Emin Gün Sirer, associate professor at Cornell and cryptocurrency expert, agreed the information provided by Wright was far from conclusive, suspecting “a deliberate attempt to deceive”. “I’m still waiting for cryptographic proof,” he added. “Even with cryptographic proof, there’s still the possibility that the real Satoshi’s keys may have been compromised or reverse engineered.”

There are several different types of Bitcoin clients. The most secure are full nodes like Bitcoin Core, which will follow the rules of the network no matter what miners do. Even if every miner decided to create 1000 bitcoins per block, full nodes would stick to the rules and reject those blocks.

really? then he shouldn't have tried it on the first place.  Roll Eyes
doing this, and with making an announcement weeks ago, proves that he doesn't think that way.

Trusted an exchange that climbed to the top 3 in just under 2 years with your money? you are fucking stupid.
