Link between DPR and Satoshi

[beetcoin]

Well DPR did say he went on to create an economic simulation in his social media account.

To that end, I am creating an economic simulation to give people a first-hand experience of what it would be like to live in a world without the systemic use of force."

It would have been pretty hard to know or get involved with bitcoin in the early stages. I think it would have been spread to close friends of Satoshi, which undoubtedly could be one of themselves. It was some time after that it was posted to a cryptography BBS.

i think that conclusion makes the most sense with what we know at this point. it was launched in february 2011 though, about 2 years after bitcoin's inception.

If Satoshi was not an individual, but a group, than a "branch" of Satoshi could be DPR as well.

Wasn't the originating address (https://blockchain.info/address/12higDjoCCNXSA95xZMWUdPvXNmkAduhWv) have already been linked to one of the "AHA guys" who was believed to be Satoshi at some point, and that cashed out a significant chunk in 2011?

Transaction IDs or it didn't happen.

one of the early adopters bought some shrooms on SR.
What's the big deal?

Well even at the time it is was >10k USD.

10k worth of shrooms? No wonder he doesn't have time to post

That's enough of something to get to the moon.

If DPR is (and always was) Ulbricht then I think we would know by now if he was Satoshi.

LE have Ulbrichts computer and most likely access to all his online accounts. Given Ulbrichts track record of data security, they'll probably have access to all his e-mails and files from the past 5 years at least (after all, he did get caught.)

I think if anyone would leap at the opportunity to prove beyond reasonable suspicion that Bitcoin was made by a criminal to buy and sell drugs, it would be LE.

This was the "AHA guy" I was referring to in my previous post. Really weak investigation by Ron and Shamir, the address they link to Satoshi has always been very publicly linked to Dustin aka Druid.
