Wall Observer BTC/USD - Bitcoin price movement tracking & discussion

There are many reasons he may not want to post proof for you to verify, not the least of which is you constantly moving the goal posts.

Feel free to browse my extensive post history. I was posting here when Satoshi was still active. The goal posts have never moved. Sign a genesis block msg. Trivial for Satoshi to do and *everyone* can verify it.

what reason could there possibly be keeping him from publishing a signed message? apart from he being not SN obv.

So now Dr. Wright is a magician That's some serious trust issues you got there.

I sure do, based on many years of having to deal with real scammers every day of my life.

look, if Dr. Wright pulled the wool over the eyes of both Dr. Gavin Andresen, Chief Scientist of the Bitcoin Foundation AND to Mr. Jon Matonis, @jonmatonis, Founding Director at Bitcoin Foundation, CEO of Hushmail, Columnist at Forbes, Chief Forex Dealer at VISA, Economist, but you insist that you won't be fooled? Oh, that's rich.

Correct. Independently verified or I won't accept it. Bitcoin has a verification method built-in. Use it or GTFO.

Put trolls on ignore instead of engaging them. Unless you enjoy the futility of it.

Someone on that production team was either incompetent, or genius.

Gavin's quantity of contributions in coding (which is supposedly part of what he is supposed to specialize in) has been quite low and quite old. 

Any place I can check out your code, JJG? Involved in some fun projects, were you?

Hello, this topic has nothing to do with my lack of coding skills... Are you retarded?

I don't contribute any code, and I do not claim to be able to contribute code.  Gavin, on the other hand, claims to want to change fundamental aspects of bitcoin, and he has submitted bips (XT and Classic) in an attempt to persuade the bitcoin community to adopt changes to the code.  The burden of proof seems to be on him regarding the efficacy of those proposed changes and he has failed to meet such burden, and is seeming to become more and more butt hurt about it (which seems to be part of the motivation for his latest alliance in corroborating Wright as supposedly being satoshi)

You're a real sucker for titles, aren't you? Anyway, as James Randi said, some of these PhD types are the worst ones for being fooled because they think their credentials make them impervious to falsehood.

.. and it just seems so amazing that Gavin and Wright are conceiving the bitcoin community to be so gullible as to go along with this bullshit... 

Well, we got you to buy $1200 coins, so...

"we"  ?    You got a rock in your pocket?    Who are the "we" you refer to, newbie?  Do you have some kind of BTC investment plan?  When did you get involved in bitcoin, and do you have historical posts referring to your various bitcoin related activities or other evidence regarding your contributions to the bitcoin community?

  There is nothing gullible about buying coins for $1,200 in late November 2013, especially, if you are failing to account for the context, which need not be rehashed here for an apparent distracting and irrelevant troll comment.

Validating Satoshi (Or Not)

SUMMARY:

1. Yes, this is a scam.  Not maybe.  Not possibly.
2. Wright is pretending he has Satoshi’s signature on Sartre’s writing.  That would mean he has the private key, and is likely to be Satoshi.  What he actually has is Satoshi’s signature on parts of the public Blockchain, which of course means he doesn’t need the private key and he doesn’t  need to be Satoshi.  He just needs to make you think Satoshi signed something else besides the Blockchain — like Sartre.  He doesn’t publish Sartre.  He publishes 14% of one document.  He then shows you a hash that’s supposed to summarize the entire document.  This is a lie.  It’s a hash extracted from the Blockchain itself.  Ryan Castellucci (my engineer at White Ops and master of Bitcoin Fu) put an extractor here.  Of course the Blockchain is totally public and of course has signatures from Satoshi, so Wright being able to lift a signature from here isn’t surprising at all.
3. He probably would have gotten away with it if the signature itself wasn’t googlable by Redditors.
4. I think Gavin et al are victims of another scam, and Wright’s done classic misdirection by generating different scams for different audiences.

There's nothing ireffutable yet. And who in the BBC is going to have much of a clue as to what it takes to prove it?

Graham Norton?

I would not characterize Gavin as a victim... .

For some reason, the way that this scenario is playing out, Gavin seems to be lacking good judgment and is coming across as wanting to be scammed.

I think only Barbara Woodhouse had the chops for this type of thing and she's now no longer with us.

Whatever the reason(s) why Gavin believes in Wright might be, I don't believe in bad intentions. And he has (had) to handle more impressions and informations then the rest of us, also more subjective information (direct communication) etc. And the situation with Wright most likely was convincing.

With other words: I don't blame him for believing it. What I see as a mistake is that he (Gavin) wrote a blogpost. That was premature and I'm sure he regrets it.

No, it isn't just an example of a simple mistake , but gross negligence with extreme levels of credulity after a great amount of evidence discrediting Wright from last year, now more evidence from many different sources discrediting wright further with clear explanations on how and why Craig Wright is a likely fraud and at minimum lying with evidence provided.... and after all this Gavin still suggests he believes CW is Satoshi. This is far beyond any mistake , and raises some serious questions to either his competence or authenticity. Either way, both classic and core should permanently revoke his commit access.
