From Genesis Block: 12c6DSiU4Rq3P4ZxziKxzrL5LmMBrzjrJX

[dabura667]

Waiting on signed message from 12c6DSiU4Rq3P4ZxziKxzrL5LmMBrzjrJX. (The address the genesis block sent to)

I don't think that anyone who created such a system would ever NOT back up the first Bitcoin address EVER USED. (ok, so not used, but received-ed?)

Signing a message with this address, verifying that his bitcointalk account was not compromised, and informing us that he is not the Satoshi from the article.


I assume Satoshi is a decent human being, and therefore he would make a move like this to clear the innocent man from the target on his back.




Unless this is a conspiracy to flush Satoshi out of hiding to get him to speak up in order to somehow track him...


And just in case you are doubting whether I, dabura667, am not the REAL Satoshi... here's proof!

why would he have it when these coins are unspendable if i'm correct

Because he is the one who said "As a rule of thumb, never delete any wallet"

You never know when you need to prove ownership of an address you made. He knew this better than anyone else, and I highly doubt he would delete or otherwise get rid of the private key to it. It's historic.

If he owns it then this would be good idea...
