Craig Wright is Not Satoshi Nakamoto

[A.Raserei]

After deeper research into ‘proofs’ of Craig Wright being Satoshi Nakamoto - it turned out that his signature is worthless. And here’s why - http://cointelegraph.com/news/why-craig-wright-is-not-satoshi-nakamoto
So why would Gavin Andersen say that Craig Wright is Satoshi Nakamoto:
1. Gavin was tricked into thinking so
2. Gavin was hacked
3. Gavin is a liar

4. Gavin: “I believe Craig Steven Wright is the person who invented Bitcoin...I am very happy to be able to say I shook his hand and thanked him for giving Bitcoin to the world,”

Andresen says his belief is unwavering, despite a bizarre and highly unconvincing blog post Wright published Monday offering the flimsiest evidence that he invented the cryptocurrency—evidence of a very different sort from what Andresen says Wright revealed to him.

“I’m still convinced he’s Satoshi despite the really weird proof he’s put in his blog post,” says Andresen. He stands by a statement he published on his website this morning: “I believe Craig Steven Wright is the person who invented Bitcoin.”

Satoshi didnt give that sig to Gavin.
Satoshi gave Gavin a new msg signed with old Private keys
Satoshi doesn't want you to know who he is so he comes up this BS sig as "proof", he knows you'll see that the proof is meaningless and conclude that he isn't Satoshi, thats what he wants you to think! dont you see he is Satoshi!

lol nice comedy of reverse psychology to prove he satoshi.. but he isnt.

Satoshi is so smart he wants us to think he isn't Satoshi, but he is,
but we all know he isn't, but Gavin says so, but there is no proof,
so thus he must be Satoshi, because he doesn't want to prove it to us.  

See.. Craig Wright must be Satoshi because only Satoshi is that smart.  

Wow-weee Right guys?   **sounds of crickets in the distance**  

[Thatstinks]

Maybe its just me but after watching the interview he seems like a major jerk, no one Id enjoy 5 minutes with or whose hand I would shake.

Takes away from anything he accomplished really, horrible personality it seems.

yes exactly!
now that we know he knows we know
now things are really going to get interesting.

Evidence is certainly piling up that Craig Wright is not Satoshi. http://cryptoyeti.com/who-is-satoshi-nakamoto/

[Kakmakr]

The guy is a bit eccentric to say the least, and people with that mindset usually come through as being arrogant and self centered. The mate from down under has the typical Aussie laid back attitude, and people who are not accustomed to that, would find it weird. ^smile^

Give the guy his 15 minutes of fame and let's move on to the things that matter, which is Bitcoin and not the supposed creator.

it all looks so suspicious to me, because I don't see why satoshi would be hesitant to publish a signed message to public. if he really was satoshi, then instead of that complicated blog post he would have simply posted a signed message in the normal format with the date of yesterday (or the date of publishing the blog post)

now here is the question, what is up with Gavin?
I don't think it is 1 or 2 because he is not stupid or a newbie to be fooled or hacked this easily. besides if her was hacked we would have known already, considerable amount of time has passed already.
so there must be a plot afoot!

Maybe Gavin knows who the real Satoshi is, and for whatever reason feels it is so important to protect his identity that he is willing to support a lunatic like Wright's claim in order to provide an extra protective layer of confusion.  But then again it's so damaging to Gavin's reputation.

It's time to remember the conspiracy theories. I do not believe that Craig is Satoshi. He is no longer himself once tried to impersonate him.
What if Craig just paid and told to impersonate him? A true (real) Nakamoto remain in the shadows.

He would be in the shadows if he didn't pay someone to impersonate him and is proven to be fake.

Yep, and there is no possible way someone **Craig**cough**cough** couldn't have been planning this for some time and read up on Satoshi and his mannerisms and try to sneak a few of them into any discussions or conversations with people he was trying to convince of being the same Satoshi. Nope, no way what-so-ever. Nada.

Craig "Satoshi" Wright said he was going to move them

hahah this guy is so funny lol. He doesn't need to move any coin to prove it, just sign the fcking message if he has the prive keys

Something is weird. He provided a message and a signature, but there's nothing in the message to indicate that he signed it himself, or when it was signed. It could have been signed months or years ago and there's no way to prove otherwise.

To understand what is really going on, you need to read carefully what Craig Wright has always said and continues to reiterate:

In his initial blog post, Wright noted that “Satoshi is dead... but this is only the beginning.” He also said that he would follow up with a more detailed mathematical explanation for the revelation. Now, the world will likely have to wait for “the coming days”—however long that may be—for more clues.

If I sign Craig Wright, it is not the same as if I sign Craig Wright, Satoshi.

I think this is true, but in my heart I wish it wasn’t.

Since those early days, after distancing myself from the public persona that was Satoshi,

Satoshi is dead.

But this is only the beginning.

You need to remember that Craig Wright has never claimed he is Satoshi Nakamoto. Instead, he has claimed that his former colleague (who died) was Satoshi. He claims he was backing his colleague's the development of Bitcoin.

This Australian Says He and His Dead Friend Invented Bitcoin

David Kleiman, Craig Wright's friend more likely Satoshi Nakamoto

OK so this might get a little meandering but I keep finding tidbits of David Kleiman's life that makes him a far more likely candidate for Satoshi than Wright. So here are some in no specific order.

Remember that Craig Wright had obtained funding for and was running a the largest Supercomputer in Australia. So what Craig has ostensibly done is he is used supercomputer resources to find the inverse of a hash function and then used one of Satoshi old transactions to pretend he has the private key:

The implication is that either Craig Wright has stumbled upon an infinitesimally rare occurrence of an SHA256 collision, or that he had used the signature from block 258 to reverse engineer a hash (the first shown in his blog demonstration) and hoped that nobody would notice. ycombinator user JoukeH noticed.

Realize that he has probably promised to endorse Andresen's block chain scaling preferences and thus probably why Gavin wants him to be Satoshi:

Andresen’s only attempt at an explanation for Wright’s bizarre behavior, he says, is an ambivalence about definitively revealing himself after so many years in hiding. “I think the most likely explanation is that … he really doesn’t want to take on the mantle of being the inventor of Bitcoin,” says Andresen, who notes that his own credibility is at stake, too. “Maybe he wants things to be really weird and unclear, which would be bad for me.”

That uncertainty, Andresen says, seemed to be evident in Wright’s manner at the time of their demonstration. Andresen describes Wright as seeming “sad” and “overwhelmed” by the decision to come forward. “His voice was breaking.

Remember that after his death, David Kleiman's family recovered his USB flash drive and gave it to Craig Wright. Thus likely Craig Wright may have an unpublished transaction but not the actual private key. So he may be about to fool the world into thinking he is Satoshi, or making some proof that he was the man behind the man who was the real Satoshi.

[TPTB_need_war]

No - what Craig did was grab an existing signature used by Satoshi and pretend he had created it to sign a document by Sartre (which is fraud and even Gavin is not sure what on earth to make of that).

And he *is* claiming to be Satoshi (which is why he asked Gavin to come and *verify* his claim).

Also - why are you posting the exact same thing in multiple topics?

Re-read my post, you didn't seem to understand it. Craig has not said he is Satoshi. Find a quote where he said that. You won't. He has always said it was his colleague.

And with his access to a supercomputer, it is plausible he was able to reverse the hash in order to find a text that matched the signature that was already on the blockchain. Without that explanation, then he must have the private key! You seem to not understand the technology. 

I am replying to every topic where my post is relevant. I am not the one who created so many duplicate topics.

It isn't relevant and it is just spamming (you could start your own topic of course).

And if he was saying that he just knew Satoshi and is not Satoshi then why does Gavin come out this "meeting" saying that he is Satoshi (surely he would  have told Gavin it was his friend and not him).

You are just butthurt.

It is very relevant.

Craig has played Gavin. He knows Gavin needs support for his preferences for the block scaling debate.

Why would you say he's a liar maybe he is the maker of the coin but why would he
say it now. The coin already reach a big amount of users maybe he never expected that. So he
wanted to stay undercover but now he's growing so fast he wants to get his well deserved credits.
