He's been in the US since he was 10; I'm sure he speaks and writes in perfect "American English."

I find it strange that a person wich such deep and broad interests is just found on google for fire guns, trains and stupid things on Amazon. Also his english i not good, i don't know how he used to write here on the board(what was his username?) and other non formal means. But the articles could not be writen by him, excepet if someone else was reviewing the text.
satoshi, also his English in his posts is excellent.

Sounds like this reporter is hell bent on making her career ("the reporter that discovered Satoshi") at all costs.
Exactly correct. Super foul that she posted his personal details and picture... Regardless of if there is truth to it, it would not be surprising if he is held for ransom or something atrocious like that...

satoshi, also his English in his posts is excellent. Just looked at it. judging by his posts here i would say that he is not Dorian . His texts on Amazon and the fire gun blog is horrible, while here on the board it is perfect and very focused.

Did they get permission to reveal personal information??? Why...Dorian..
His family doesn't like him and they need money Bad. They find out he has millions of dollars. Instantly they're offended, probably angry. Brother calls him an asshole. Idiot journalist shows up with $$$$$ in hand and they spilled the beans. Thats how permission was given to reveal his personal information. Family members. Moral of the story - i guess - dont piss off your brother. -B-

satoshi, also his English in his posts is excellent. It is flawless. Only a native speaker or someone who learned and spoke the language as a child would have English that perfect.

I think she's just incredibly naive. I suspect she has no idea the can of worms she has opened with this about Nakamoto.
That's why I just tweeted this to her, verbatim: @truth_eater Leah: you clearly don't realize the future ramifications of what he has built. And why his anonymity matters so much. #bitcoin

Criminals are planning how to invade his house or kidnap him.

If this is not the guy then maybe the real Satoshi will came out of his cave just to save him. Maybe that's the whole master plan..
Exactly. Hope the real Satoshi can somehow just get some funds anonymously to the family, for security protection.

Bitcoin: An Idea Worth Spending

Reading the Newsweek article now, having found it prior to coming here. Had to stop to inject a quote in some main thread on the subject, and I guess it's this thread. Holding the keys has also made early comers to Bitcoin wealthy beyond measure. "I made a small investment in Bitcoin and it is actually enough that I could now retire if I wanted to," Andresen says. "Overall, I've made about $800 per penny I've invested. It's insane." I haven't taken the time to find the post where Gavin stated that his holdings were not that strong. Perhaps, somebody could dig it up, if it hasn't been done yet, while I finish reading the article. Taxing my memory, I believe the timeframe was during the discussion on justifying the TBF to pay Gavin a wage.

Correction: Only a native speaker or someone who have learned and spoken the language as a child would have spoken or written English that well. By the way, the written form of English can be mastered in a few years for a person of average intelligence. Speaking a language in native tongue is a feat more common in earlier adopters of the language, usually before 12 years of age.

Exactly correct. Super foul that she posted his personal details and picture... Regardless of if there is truth to it, it would not be surprising if he is held for ransom or something atrocious like that... This reporter & newsweek seem like scum... to put up this mans house, address, and almost an exact location (it might take 10 minutes, but most will be able to find his house) and then to state he could be sitting on $400 million. Disgusting. I am certain she would not like her address posted on that article right now, and she's worth no where near $400 million... but its the only fair thing to do at this point. I'm probably way off, but for some reason my gut feeling is that this might actually be Satoshi... if he is actually as smart as she makes him out to be. Oddly enough, this is actually the type of person I had hoped Satoshi would end up being, but there would be no way of telling without him proving it or maybe meeting him in person and being able to communicate to him (which sounds impossible). I guess there is a chance the reporter discovered it really wasn't Satoshi after her investigation (which I can only assume took a good amount of time) and decided to just destroy the guy that led her on? In any case, BTC will survive.

If the mention of finding him is able to drop the price of Bitcoin by $50, imagine what would happen if news breaks that the initial Million coins started to move.

shes replying stuff on her twitter https://twitter.com/truth_eateri think the worse part of this, apart from his own safety, is how distracted he would be now and difficult or impossible it would be for him to contribute in any way, and to live his life, of course.

Not the japanese part. The paranoid personality that drove someone to create Bitcoin.
