If this is true - which it potentially is given the Gavin Adresen evidence (unless it is be an elaborate ploy to confuse in conjunction with Nakamoto), it will not come as a surprise to everybody.


Craig Wright revealed as Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto

"Australian entrepreneur Craig Wright has publicly identified himself as Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto.
His admission ends years of speculation about who came up with the original ideas underlying the digital cash system.

Mr Wright has provided technical proof to back up his claim using coins known to be owned by Bitcoin's creator.
Prominent members of the Bitcoin community and its core development team have also confirmed Mr Wright's claim."

Coindesk and other media are pointing to doubts about the evidence provided however:

http://www.coindesk.com/doubts-cast-craig-wright-bitcoin-proof/

All pretty irrelevant at the end of the day -- It seems like when you light a fire near a rabbit hole so that the rabbit will move and exit another hole where it can be caught. Interesting - but maybe we should all get back to fixing the worlds money creation problem? Exciting things ahead.

Quite convincing, but may be best to remain open minded. I trust that we all have been fooled by the media more than once. I am most interested to learn about potential implications to our industry if this claim turns out to be true.

Interesting that Gavin backed the claim that he believed this to be Satoshi.

Yes but that makes me feel even more confused.

Yes, in my view that is the only piece of information that gives the story any credibility. I may not have touched on that part.

Tinfoil hate goes back on - Gavin is either convinced that Wright is Satoshi, OR, he is also working in collusion with Satoshi to fool the world to Satoshi's benefit, or worst case, he is being coerced by another party against his wishes to back the claim.

We will see what happens in the next couple of weeks - the good thing is, is that this won't affect blockchain as a technology in any way.

Pretty interesting way to look at it "Disconnected from the digital currency, blockchain exists more like an intranet. Intranet was quite important, but the transformative value was only when all those intranets were connected into an Internet."

Hutchins indicated that bitcoins could come to serve as the "boxcars" for finance, comparing distributed ledgers to the new "railroads" in terms of how they could enable economic development.

Hey infovortice, once you setup an account, you can add to it at any time but the date of release for the total funds of that account won't change.

We don't have a set date as of yet, but the kickstarter should be up at the end of this week. We will have a separate account on the DNotesVault specifically for purchasing a digital copy of the book, and those funds will be set aside for upcoming DNotes projects.

And so the saga continues but I agree that, " if Dr Wright can move one of Satoshi's bitcoins - as promised - that should convince many of the doubters.

But don't expect everybody to be convinced."



The Bitcoin affair: Craig Wright promises extraordinary proof

Rory Cellan-Jones
Technology correspondent

Craig Wright's spokesman told the BBC that the Australian would "move a coin from an early block" known to belong to the crypto-currency's inventor "in the coming days".

The entrepreneur announced he was behind the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto on Monday.
Critics have said that the evidence produced to date is unconvincing.

In a new blog - published after I first wrote this article - Dr Wright said it was right that the public was sceptical about his claims, but added that he would soon present "extraordinary" evidence to support his case.

"I will be posting a series of pieces that will lay the foundations for this extraordinary claim, which will include posting independently-verifiable documents and evidence addressing some of the false allegations that have been levelled, and transferring bitcoin from an early block," he wrote.

"For some there is no burden of proof high enough, no evidence that cannot be dismissed as fabrication or manipulation. This is the nature of belief and swimming against this current would be futile.
"I will present what I believe to be 'extraordinary proof' and ask only that it be independently validated. Ultimately, I can do no more than that."

You can read the strongest attack on Dr Wright in this post on Github, where his original post was described as "flimflam and hokum which stands up to a few minutes of cursory scrutiny, and demonstrates a competent sysadmin's level of familiarity with cryptographic tools, but ultimately demonstrates no non-public information about Satoshi."

We are extremely busy getting ready to launch the Kickstarter campaign for the book later this week. Any extra efforts to help support this forum will be greatly appreciated. We will be posting more information later in the week. Meanwhile, you can read a fairly comprehensive chapter summation of the book at: https://fourpillarsofbusinesssuccess.com/book-preview/

I trust that this book will be invaluable to many employers, employees, and anyone interested to start their own business. I have passionately made every effort for it to be a great inspiration and guidance for every entrepreneur. It is my intent to be helpful to anyone I can help. There are too many people struggling just to stay afloat.

Perfect timing for the Kickstarter - this week is National Small Business Week!

Thanks, Chase. Good to know that SBA has been trying a little harder these days. The book will be a significant help to many small business owners. I am gearing up to give it a big push.

From CryptoMoms Forum:

Quote from: indiamikezulu on Today at 01:38:26 AM

I'll follow this with interest, Shepherd.

And my thoughts on the Aussie Satoshi? Well, perhaps we could all take turns claiming to be him, and use each opportunity to explain cryptos to the mainstream media:

'Press Release: Farm-House Guy Claims to be Bitcoin's Inventor. Likes gardening and watching emus. Says Bitcoin is good but Dnotes is better. Details at nine.'

Quote From Shepherd Today:

Very funny, Mark. Should I try and see if I have a "Satoshi" looking picture somewhere? You could claim that you met me years ago in the Indonesian Borneo jungle ..bah bah, bah, ... lol.

Excellent article, Thomas. Like everything else, it takes time and scale to finally get there. Frictionless acquisition and payment features with great security and in full compliance with regulatory requirements are the ideals. That is our vision but it will take years to get there. In the mean time, there are lots of great ideas being tested and we are keeping a careful watch. I was impressed to learn this morning that one can purchase $5 of "Game" (Game Credits) using Paypal any time. Great job to our friends at GMC.
