Who is Satoshi Nakamoto ? Suspects, frauds and conspiracies on bitcointalk

[abhi777]

Who is Satoshi Nakamoto ?

Satoshi Nakamoto is a talented cipher and coder.
Wrote the whitepaper on bitcoin "Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System" and published it on the cypherpunks mailing list in October 2008
Developed the code for bitcoin and founded https://bitcointalk.org
He used an e-mail address and a web site that is untraceable.
In 2009 and 2010, he wrote hundreds of posts in flawless English.
He invited other software developers to help him improve the code, and corresponded with them,
He never revealed any personal details.
Stefan Thomas, a Swiss coder and active community member, graphed the time stamps for each of Nakamoto's bitcoin forum posts and found:
He made almost no posts between the hours of 5 a.m. and 11 a.m. Greenwich Mean Time.
In April, 2011, he sent a note to a developer saying that he had “moved on to other things.” He has not been heard from since.

His birthday is said to be on April 5, 1975 according to this post.
(But it is likely that he didn't select his real birth-date)

His writing is clean, with few typos.
He shows a high proficiency in English. Making very few mistakes.
After his first post, in which he used American spelling, he switched to English spelling for all the rest.

Title: Electronic Cash Without a Trusted Third Party

Abstract: A purely peer-to-peer version of electronic cash would allow
online payments to be sent directly from one party to another without the
burdens of going through a financial institution.  Digital signatures
offer part of the solution, but the main benefits are lost if a trusted
party is still required to prevent double-spending.  We propose a solution
to the double-spending problem using a peer-to-peer network.  The network
timestamps transactions by hashing them into an ongoing chain of
hash-based proof-of-work, forming a record that cannot be changed without
redoing the proof-of-work.  The longest chain not only serves as proof of
the sequence of events witnessed, but proof that it came from the largest
pool of CPU power.  As long as honest nodes control the most CPU power on
the network, they can generate the longest chain and outpace any
attackers.  The network itself requires minimal structure.  Messages are
broadcasted on a best effort basis, and nodes can leave and rejoin the
network at will, accepting the longest proof-of-work chain as proof of
what happened while they were gone.

Was Satoshi a good coder ?

It was pretty good: I'd give it a grade of B+. The worst problem was that there were only a few, huge files, but if you ignored that then it made a lot of sense. It was written in (then-)modern C++, clearly with a lot of care. It was clearly not written in a stream-of-consciousness manner. There were very few bugs that you could blame on lack of programming skill.

My personal suspicion in this area is that Satoshi was never (or not recently) a full-time programmer, but he was pretty familiar with computer science (maybe a student or academic?), and he'd read some comprehensive C++ book just before starting on Bitcoin, so he made full and correct usage of C++ features in a slightly messy way.

Someone hacked Satoshis email account to try and discover who he is:

Lots of people have been suspected of being Satoshi:

People who corresponded with him have all been named as suspects:

‎Hal Finney, Martti Malmi,  Adam Back, Michael Marquardt, Gavin Andresen and Wei Dai.

But in doing so are we minimising those individuals own contribution to Bitcoin.
They may not be the founder but they are the apostles.

Bitcoin is a collaboration of efforts based on a combination of ideas all consolidated in this whitepaper
It was then executed by a group of individuals, both identified and anonymous.


Many threads with some compelling arguments have been made about it.

I'm not going to duplicate the theories but have instead provided the links to various theories on here:

The current most popular theory:

Satoshi Nakamotos' current github is showing a photo of Dave Kleiman
https://github.com/satoshinnakamoto

Mr Wright has also demonstrated this verification in person to The Economist—and not just for block 9, but block 1. Such demonstrations can be stage-managed; and information that allows us to go through the verification process independently was provided too late for us to do so fully. Still, as far as we can tell he indeed seems to be in possession of the keys, at least for block 9. This assessment is shared by two bitcoin insiders who have sat through the same demonstration: Jon Matonis, a bitcoin consultant and former director of the Bitcoin Foundation, and Gavin Andresen

https://ftalphaville.ft.com/2016/05/02/2160632/oh-my-craig-wrights-keys-of-revelation/

This in combination to the claims made in the Dave Kleiman Estate lawsuit against Craig Wright makes Dave Kleiman the current most plausible suspect.

Craig Wright filed a motion to dismiss

But I'm still skeptical of the claim because it is reliant on Craig Wrights testimony. In my opinion he has a $54 million reason to lie.

Bitcoin was introduced in 2009 , a decade ago and now it has been considered as the finest invention to the mankind and SATOSHI NAKAMOTO, is the first who is considered behind the invention of bitcoin, though nobody has met him yet and his presence is even doubtful as nobody has seen him yet but there are gossip that he used to talk and interact with people on social networking sites like Twitter and Facebook, though, I haven’t chat with him yet but once I got chance, I would like to meet him once in my life.

Satoshi Nakamoto is a term used by someone who is unknown and is a designer of bitcoin and the results of its original application refers to Bitcoin Core. Through its application in Bitcoin Core, the base of the blockchain database has also been planned with careful thought for the first time. In a series of actions taken, the problem of double-spending payments for digital currencies can be found by Satoshi Nakamoto for the first time. Satoshi Nakamoto is an active follower in relation to the development of bitcoin until 2010.

Bitcoin has made its unique identification in the market of investment and it is its users that has made so successful and popular and the bitcoin is on the top of on ranking of crypto currencies and the credit for all goes to SATOSHI Nakamoto, the so called inventor of bitcoin, though nobody has seen him yet but he used to talk to his investors through social networking sites but when in my life I would like to meet him and want to thank him for his invention.

[Bessta]

This is actually a good speculation on who is he. Because of his japanese name, the only thing I can think of is he maybe is a japanese guy. But your speculation actually is really good and you were able to make your speculation well.

Thank you for so much detailed and interesting analysis.A lot of different options and there is no one single and true.The text has the words Satoshi Nakamoto where he tells his colleague that ,,he will do other things,.I wonder what this man is doing now?Most likely developing a super powerful quantum computer.

I agree that OP created very good and detailed topic here. Structure and design makes you wanna read all of it. Everything written in very smooth way, i like reading this kind of things on Bitcointalk.
Many people wants to know who Satoshi really is. Almost all Bitcoin supporters wanna know every detail about his life. Honestly i think it’s just better not to know the real story behind Satoshi Nakamoto. Sometimes little secrets make everything better. On the other hand some people really believe that he is dead already..

Stefan Thomas, a Swiss coder and active community member, graphed the time stamps for each of Nakamoto's bitcoin forum posts and found:
He made almost no posts between the hours of 5 a.m. and 11 a.m. Greenwich Mean Time.
In April, 2011, he sent a note to a developer saying that he had “moved on to other things.” He has not been heard from since.

His birthday is said to be on April 5, 1975 according to this post.
(But it is likely that he didn't select his real birth-date)

His writing is clean, with few typos.
He shows a high proficiency in English. Making very few mistakes.
After his first post, in which he used American spelling, he switched to English spelling for all the rest.

Title: Electronic Cash Without a Trusted Third Party

Abstract: A purely peer-to-peer version of electronic cash would allow
online payments to be sent directly from one party to another without the
burdens of going through a financial institution.  Digital signatures
offer part of the solution, but the main benefits are lost if a trusted
party is still required to prevent double-spending.  We propose a solution
to the double-spending problem using a peer-to-peer network.  The network
timestamps transactions by hashing them into an ongoing chain of
hash-based proof-of-work, forming a record that cannot be changed without
redoing the proof-of-work.  The longest chain not only serves as proof of
the sequence of events witnessed, but proof that it came from the largest
pool of CPU power.  As long as honest nodes control the most CPU power on
the network, they can generate the longest chain and outpace any
attackers.  The network itself requires minimal structure.  Messages are
broadcasted on a best effort basis, and nodes can leave and rejoin the
network at will, accepting the longest proof-of-work chain as proof of
what happened while they were gone.

Satoshi

Was Satoshi a good coder ?

It was pretty good: I'd give it a grade of B+. The worst problem was that there were only a few, huge files, but if you ignored that then it made a lot of sense. It was written in (then-)modern C++, clearly with a lot of care. It was clearly not written in a stream-of-consciousness manner. There were very few bugs that you could blame on lack of programming skill.

My personal suspicion in this area is that Satoshi was never (or not recently) a full-time programmer, but he was pretty familiar with computer science (maybe a student or academic?), and he'd read some comprehensive C++ book just before starting on Bitcoin, so he made full and correct usage of C++ features in a slightly messy way.

Someone hacked Satoshis email account to try and discover who he is:

Lots of people have been suspected of being Satoshi:

People who corresponded with him have all been named as suspects:

‎Hal Finney, Martti Malmi,  Adam Back, Michael Marquardt, Gavin Andresen and Wei Dai.

But in doing so are we minimising those individuals own contribution to Bitcoin.
They may not be the founder but they are the apostles.

Bitcoin is a collaboration of efforts based on a combination of ideas all consolidated in this whitepaper
It was then executed by a group of individuals, both identified and anonymous.


Many threads with some compelling arguments have been made about it.

I'm not going to duplicate the theories but have instead provided the links to various theories on here:

https://github.com/satoshinnakamoto

Mr Wright has also demonstrated this verification in person to The Economist—and not just for block 9, but block 1. Such demonstrations can be stage-managed; and information that allows us to go through the verification process independently was provided too late for us to do so fully. Still, as far as we can tell he indeed seems to be in possession of the keys, at least for block 9. This assessment is shared by two bitcoin insiders who have sat through the same demonstration: Jon Matonis, a bitcoin consultant and former director of the Bitcoin Foundation, and Gavin Andresen

https://ftalphaville.ft.com/2016/05/02/2160632/oh-my-craig-wrights-keys-of-revelation/

This in combination to the claims made in the Dave Kleiman Estate lawsuit against Craig Wright makes Dave Kleiman the current most plausible suspect.

Craig Wright filed a motion to dismiss

But I'm still skeptical of the claim because it is reliant on Craig Wrights testimony. In my opinion he has a $54 million reason to lie.

Cybersecurity firm Wizsec dismisses the Wright claims on which the Kleiman lawsuit is based as "fantasy" https://blog.wizsec.jp/2018/02/kleiman-v-craig-wright-bitcoins.html

My conclusion:

I rather not know. I think the mystery makes it more intriguing. Some legends are better as legends. Like Merlin and Robin Hood.

o much bullshit in this post did you know that journlist that was get info from underground people which behind wiki leaks and others always receive the inforamtion under one weird name .


you so uneducated in simple things that done over the web and its shows on very low logic and the ability to trace on the web

do you think wiki leaks run by one person ??

bitcoin operation its done by global team , if you uneducated its dosent change this facts....

after bitcoin explode suddnely from no where cicada 3301 pop up and search people in the same area and other with sharp skills

sad to see so much people like you with so much starts and dont know shit about the web and what goes underground really

heyyyyyyyyyyyyy

bitcoin was nothing but nothing without top marketers which make it viral with ze0 salary

shame on you simple things like this you didnt know...

even more few people hint that peer to peer file sharing will make finical freedom one of them edoward snowden which was leak huge info amount to wiki leaks website and journlist from around the w0rld.

you just uneducated and dont know how things operate underground very simple and the bullshit you say dosent change the facts...

in other words wiki leaks run by one person because the journalist that was receiving info was get it under one name yet wiki leaks is rung by gloabl team....

and wiki leaks operation much more big then bitcoin relative * the biggest leaks dont in the entire history

educate your self littel bit and you have 5 shitty stars , so sad to this bullshit spread.

Daphne Caruana Galizia was get info from group of people which was under one name and they part of big global team, she was killed in very short time because she exposed to much ...

edoward snowdan was escaped from usa to china under different name and there part of the team waited him to hide him

some of them behind bitcoin and some hint that peer to peer going to make finical freedom which i dont going put names here its hint some where on the web who know to trace will get to them the other in this also huge operation called bitcoin we will never will get to them.

last point top marketers from around the world was making bitcoin viral,,,,who know if they part of them or not....marketing this is the brains which without them nothing happen...

soory for my english but i dont give a damn shit

Who is Satoshi Nakamoto ?

Satoshi Nakamoto is a talented cipher and coder.
Wrote the whitepaper on bitcoin "Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System" and published it on the cypherpunks mailing list in October 2008
Developed the code for bitcoin and founded https://bitcointalk.org
He used an e-mail address and a web site that is untraceable.
In 2009 and 2010, he wrote hundreds of posts in flawless English.
He invited other software developers to help him improve the code, and corresponded with them,
He never revealed any personal details.
Stefan Thomas, a Swiss coder and active community member, graphed the time stamps for each of Nakamoto's bitcoin forum posts and found:
He made almost no posts between the hours of 5 a.m. and 11 a.m. Greenwich Mean Time.
In April, 2011, he sent a note to a developer saying that he had “moved on to other things.” He has not been heard from since.

His birthday is said to be on April 5, 1975 according to this post.
(But it is likely that he didn't select his real birth-date)

His writing is clean, with few typos.
He shows a high proficiency in English. Making very few mistakes.
After his first post, in which he used American spelling, he switched to English spelling for all the rest.

Thank you for letting me know this interesting information, but now I no longer care about who Satoshi Nakamoto is, instead I care about the development of Bitcoin in the future.

in reality it interesting when you get it right.

who want go more deep the rabbit hole and all what said here was said by people like kevin mitnick the legend and others legends,

i will put links to videos if people here to much uneducated to trace this simple things...

deep the rabbit hole...

**


this kind of people dont have salaries like fucky agents which backed by army of people/country and shitty salaries, they know to do bunch of money and be free and in the same time to do operations on a global scale like bitcoin and wiki leaks, and other cool stuff which agents only will dream to do and be aprt of this kind of people which challenge them self to make the imposiible over and over again without salaries and nothing.

you know the operation like wiki leaks its never ever done in the entire history the same with bitcoin, cicada 3301 which was pop short after bitcoin explode and search people in the same field* and skills and people with huge sharp logic.

another point is that this kind of info need to be exposed by agents from all countries around the world because they are the LAST HOPE FOR US...

yet they are the same shit like governmnets and in the end who did it underground people without salaries and without any protection, like

edoward snowdan and kevin mitnick , Chelsea E. Manning,  and Daphne Caruana Galizia which was killed in very short time and great honest women for great kids...killed.

there are bunch others some expose them self and dont give a damn shit and some hide because they know to much and other reasons.

for agents that backed by army of people and shitty salaries , to bring down someone, which mean to kill its dosent show on any intelligence or smart people they are fucking army of people that backed by shitty salaries hhhhhhh and still cannot get to the info that wiki leaks leaked by this huge team.

compare to wiki leaks operation which show on high intelligence and done by people which dont have shitty salaries and know to do huge amount of money,
and expose info which top agents from any country cannot do its fact and kevin mitnik the legend also said this i can put video here hhhhh!

wiki leaks this operation is the biggest one that was in the entire history and this is why great honest people killed fast!

bitcoin come from the same international team or some of them, and also the biggest startup that was ever created because the last startup in this area was paper money, after this no body try to compete usd,euro,shekel, what ever shit out there...

in 11 years market which almost half trillion created any agents from any counrty in the world only will dream be part of this kind of teams,

edoward snowden after exposing very important info about fbi shit clowns and other agents around the world which was on wiki leaks escaped to china there people waited him to hide him,,,,he escaped under different name and there are bunch like of him that move from country to country under different names for meetings and other important stuff . far away from illusion you think wiki leaks can run without organazied people over the web which know to communicate in way which is impossible to crack because if not this type of communication that was traced fast as light its fucking FACT!

edoward snowdan and other few which i will not name them was said before bitcoin came even that peer to peer file sharing will do financial freedom!!

cicada 3301 which shortly after bitcoin explode pop from no where and start to search for people in the same area hhhhhh and people with huge sharp logic, and went viral forever* which mean the topest marketers in the world was behind this project , its the same people behind wiki leaks and bitcoin....

...

so inspiring to see that underground people do shit which agents from all countries will only dream to do and be part, time changes and internet interconnect the smartest people on the globe.

after all they dont depend on shitty salaries and backed by army of people like agents yet they can learn them how to make huge amount of money and do projects on a global scale and communicate in some sort of way which impossible to crack it, how know maybe few people in this forum communicte secretly with others and give the illusion that there are no sender and  receiver who knows and other places??

Daphne Caruana Galizia which was killed in very short time  fucking great honest women for great kids,
what do you think this team need all this money to buy cool cars and show everyone they are the richest hell NO , for sure they drive in cool cars and live good yet they need to protect them self.

which mean if something will happen to kevin mitnick or edoward snowdan or others they have the power and MONEY to solve it once for all.

Who is Satoshi Nakamoto ?

Satoshi Nakamoto is a talented cipher and coder.
Wrote the whitepaper on bitcoin "Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System" and published it on the cypherpunks mailing list in October 2008
Developed the code for bitcoin and founded https://bitcointalk.org
He used an e-mail address and a web site that is untraceable.
In 2009 and 2010, he wrote hundreds of posts in flawless English.
He invited other software developers to help him improve the code, and corresponded with them,
He never revealed any personal details.
Stefan Thomas, a Swiss coder and active community member, graphed the time stamps for each of Nakamoto's bitcoin forum posts and found:
He made almost no posts between the hours of 5 a.m. and 11 a.m. Greenwich Mean Time.
In April, 2011, he sent a note to a developer saying that he had “moved on to other things.” He has not been heard from since.

His birthday is said to be on April 5, 1975 according to this post.
(But it is likely that he didn't select his real birth-date)

His writing is clean, with few typos.
He shows a high proficiency in English. Making very few mistakes.
After his first post, in which he used American spelling, he switched to English spelling for all the rest.

Title: Electronic Cash Without a Trusted Third Party

Abstract: A purely peer-to-peer version of electronic cash would allow
online payments to be sent directly from one party to another without the
burdens of going through a financial institution.  Digital signatures
offer part of the solution, but the main benefits are lost if a trusted
party is still required to prevent double-spending.  We propose a solution
to the double-spending problem using a peer-to-peer network.  The network
timestamps transactions by hashing them into an ongoing chain of
hash-based proof-of-work, forming a record that cannot be changed without
redoing the proof-of-work.  The longest chain not only serves as proof of
the sequence of events witnessed, but proof that it came from the largest
pool of CPU power.  As long as honest nodes control the most CPU power on
the network, they can generate the longest chain and outpace any
attackers.  The network itself requires minimal structure.  Messages are
broadcasted on a best effort basis, and nodes can leave and rejoin the
network at will, accepting the longest proof-of-work chain as proof of
what happened while they were gone.

Satoshi

Was Satoshi a good coder ?

It was pretty good: I'd give it a grade of B+. The worst problem was that there were only a few, huge files, but if you ignored that then it made a lot of sense. It was written in (then-)modern C++, clearly with a lot of care. It was clearly not written in a stream-of-consciousness manner. There were very few bugs that you could blame on lack of programming skill.

My personal suspicion in this area is that Satoshi was never (or not recently) a full-time programmer, but he was pretty familiar with computer science (maybe a student or academic?), and he'd read some comprehensive C++ book just before starting on Bitcoin, so he made full and correct usage of C++ features in a slightly messy way.

Someone hacked Satoshis email account to try and discover who he is:

Lots of people have been suspected of being Satoshi:

People who corresponded with him have all been named as suspects:

‎Hal Finney, Martti Malmi,  Adam Back, Michael Marquardt, Gavin Andresen and Wei Dai.

But in doing so are we minimising those individuals own contribution to Bitcoin.
They may not be the founder but they are the apostles.

Bitcoin is a collaboration of efforts based on a combination of ideas all consolidated in this whitepaper
It was then executed by a group of individuals, both identified and anonymous.


Many threads with some compelling arguments have been made about it.

I'm not going to duplicate the theories but have instead provided the links to various theories on here:

The current most popular theory:

Satoshi Nakamotos' current github is showing a photo of Dave Kleiman
https://github.com/satoshinnakamoto

Mr Wright has also demonstrated this verification in person to The Economist—and not just for block 9, but block 1. Such demonstrations can be stage-managed; and information that allows us to go through the verification process independently was provided too late for us to do so fully. Still, as far as we can tell he indeed seems to be in possession of the keys, at least for block 9. This assessment is shared by two bitcoin insiders who have sat through the same demonstration: Jon Matonis, a bitcoin consultant and former director of the Bitcoin Foundation, and Gavin Andresen

https://ftalphaville.ft.com/2016/05/02/2160632/oh-my-craig-wrights-keys-of-revelation/

This in combination to the claims made in the Dave Kleiman Estate lawsuit against Craig Wright makes Dave Kleiman the current most plausible suspect.

Craig Wright filed a motion to dismiss

But I'm still skeptical of the claim because it is reliant on Craig Wrights testimony. In my opinion he has a $54 million reason to lie.

Craig Wrights MtGox account also is not that of a "whale" https://np.reddit.com/r/Bitcoin/comments/4hx3q9/according_to_the_mtgox_leaks_from_early_2014_our/

Wright also claimed to have a  PhD in computer science with Sydney's Charles Sturt University (CSU). But the university denied ever handing him a Phd.

Cybersecurity firm Wizsec dismisses the Wright claims on which the Kleiman lawsuit is based as "fantasy" https://blog.wizsec.jp/2018/02/kleiman-v-craig-wright-bitcoins.html

My conclusion:

I rather not know. I think the mystery makes it more intriguing. Some legends are better as legends. Like Merlin and Robin Hood.

There are so dump people out there there is no words to explain there dumbness , like saying the founder of Bitcoin sv is Satoshi when ironaclly he clam that Bitcoin is not real crypto and in the same type say he the founder hhhhhhh , and there are more dumber people then this which think Satoshi is one person ,

Did you know that wiki leaks operation million times bigger then Bitcoin operation , do you know how much people all around the globe try to trace the oragnized group of people behind wiki leaks, hell it's facts not the dumb posts which overload this fourm,

All this hint from where Bitcoin come and by which people on the web,

So simple...
And when journalist receive information from this team they receive always under one name..

So heck and simple to know this and it's all facts not stupid concpiricy theories which come from super dumb people

[Bitcoinqubit]

Stop looking for Satoshi. Don't waste your time.

almost everything can be traced ... you wrong and yes some people from bitcoin operation we will never get to them this is true.

[TimeBits]

Samsung Toshiba Nakamichi Motorola and Santa?
How high do you have to be?

Now for the real conspiracy

Satoshi showed up once again on April 23, 2011, when he emailed a software developer, Mike Hearn, with “I’ve moved on to other things. It’s in good hands with Gavin and everyone.” From then no one knows what Satoshi is up to.

Gavin self admits to being a CIA INFORMANT
https://youtu.be/6pWblf8COH4?t=335

Bitcoin in the hands of the CIA, Created by the IMF and FED? probably I would say 90% chance bitcoin was created by people thinking about money and who was thinking about money other than the banks that were starting to get exposed around 2000-today on the internet?  and that entire genesis block pointing out the banker bailouts is all reverse social engineering to dupe you to think it is anti banker. It is their Trojan horse out of the fiat system as they know the collapse is inevitable as there is no way to pay back the debts.  

Both the first two ip`s came from the same area code that Hal Finney lived in. Could Hal just been remote viewing a office computer? Could Hal of been Satoshi playing around on two accounts like most people on this forum do? Could it explain why none of the coins have moved?

Anyways, serious talk, I am pretty sure they killed Satoshi and if you read the first sentence of the whitepaper you will understand bitcoin was not suppose to be a stock or investment. It was meant to be a non shit money supply and you fucks piss all over Satoshi`s grave every time you use fiat or sell bitcoin for fiat. Just use the fucking currency as a currency. I earned 4 bitcoins and spent 0 fiat, I got a computer, laptop, chair, clothes and meds and used no fiat. For real read the first sentence of the whitepaper, U$D is a financial institution you dumb fucks.

This first naming

http://www.upload.ae/file/6157/ecash-pdf.html

clearly hints for it's legit purpose.  Not just a store of value - with high fees...

And sure Satoshi was the creator of a new eCash - so he knew that he might Need highest privacy - and still ppl do not reall know who he is. - So he was good to manage that bit.

Bitcoin protocol is NOT that private - at will, for a purpose.  It lacks a lot of 'anonymity features' - thogh for a purpose - it's was designed that way.

> To get accepted by the globe (incl financial institutes, gov, mearchants, ...) for honest business.

[CBANX Ltd.]

Satoshi Nakamoto is a fictional character to whom we can't suspect as one because he is not only an inventor of Bitcoin but also a father/mother of an astonishing technology i.e. Blockchain which makes him a never-dying fictional character.

[leech.]

What if Satosi Nakamoto is just a fictional character behind whom there is a whole group of developers. I think that Bitcoin created a government of one of the countries (USA, China) to use this new industry further in its favor  

[songsunling]

Satoshi Nakamoto is a team.  Hal Finney, Dave Kleiman, Craig Steven Wright should be the members.

This is a great post. It is fun to follow the updates on who's Satoshi, it has became like Area 51 everyone want to know what is happening inside
