What Satoshi can do to Protect Dorian without Doxxing himself

[BTCLuke]

Dear Satoshi, (The real one)

Here's a way you can protect that poor guy in California without revealing your own identity:

1. Quickly go to some famous landmark far away from Temple city California.

2. Grab today's newspaper once there, and a disposable camera.

3. Write on the newspaper (but not over the date) that Dorian Nakamoto is not you, and you have not revealed your real name.

4. Take a picture with the disposable camera of the newspaper and the landmark together.

5. Using a net cafe or other safe spot, send the picture to news outlets and us, using your PGP key that confirms you are you.

Since poor Dorian Nakamoto is under siege by the press right now, he would not be able to send this.

Thank you so much for your vision and hard work!

-Luke

Either the real Satoshi is dead, doesn't care about bitcoin, or is simply this recently exposed 64-year old man.

[Lauda]

I'm not near the US, that's the problem.

[BTCLuke]

Either the real Satoshi is dead, doesn't care about bitcoin, or is simply this recently exposed 64-year old man.

That's quite a limited set of options given the evidence... The real Satoshi probably hasn't seen the news about all of this yet.

By the way, if anyone suggests on this thread that Dorian is the real Satoshi, they automatically go on my ignore list for life. That's just a serious insult to Satoshi's intelligence.

Will the real Satoshi please stand up?

[RiverBoatBTC]

He should send a small amount of BTC to somebody with a message attached from his bitcoin address. The message should be some what taunting of the news media and make them feel like asses. This would be the only 100% way to verify its him

[farlack]

Why would he care to do any of this?

[BTCLuke]

Why would he care to do any of this?

Because someone who was caring enough to bring bitcoin to the world and not just cash it all out probably has some iota of a conscious?

[DanielVG]

It's a real "coincidence" that this juicy story pops up at the moment newsweek goes back to paper.
Wouldn't be the first magazine that lied for extra profit on an important release.  They were planning to have a good paper release, with or without completed research.

People searched for 5 years for a guy named Satoshi Nakamoto and eventually he just used his real name which is Dorian Prentice Satoshi Nakamoto.....really? nah.

I think it's disgusting that journalists post pictures on the internet of a man who wants to stay anonymous, he deserves his privacy.
All you tabloit-journalists,  do us all a favor and KILL YOURSELF.

No. If you give an inch they take a mile. Satoshi can't do anything about this without exposing a potential weakness that can be exploited.

The best he can do is ignore this and let it run its course.

[RiverBoatBTC]

How would him sending 1 bitcent show potential weakness... please explain this? All the message has to say is, "they have the wrong guy keep looking"

Once criminals realize that they can get BTC from Satoshi by placing an innocent persons life in jeopardy, it could get very nasty.

It's best that Satoshi ignore this situation completely. Few people even know that Satoshi still lives.

If Satoshi were to present himself to the world as a moral man; he would have tough choices ahead. Criminals will try to capitalize on morality.

How are they getting BTC from satoshi by sending .001 to a random address with a message attached to it?
This is the way it works if you are confused

Step 1. Satoshi opens his wallet
Step 2. He sends .001 bitcoin to a random address could even be a new one he makes so he can keep his bitcents lol
step 3. Attach a message for all to see
step 5. bitcoin community in awe that satoshi did something, and someone does have control of that very large wallet lol

where are you getting extortion out of this lol?

[Bobsurplus]

Its clearly Satoshi people. Wake up and smell the free lunch!

[vpitcher07]

Why are you people in denial? I'm not saying for sure, but i'm pretty confident this man is nakamoto.

Have you ever played poker?

Satoshi can't show the world who he is. There are people who want what he has; others simply want him dead. Knowing what motivates him is a weakness that would be exploited.

If Satoshi comes out of nowhere and reveals that this guy isn't Satoshi, what about the next person accused? Then followed by a hundred others while the situation becomes more and more dangerous.

Satoshi can't do anything in direct response to this event without putting people at risk.

I'd be willing to bet you he deleted those private keys to his millions. Or at least he will claim to have done so...

How does this prove whether it's the real Satoshi or not? Either Dorian would send it from his basement, or the real satoshi would send it from somewhere else. All it proves is that the real satoshi hasn't lost his private keys, it doesn't tell you which is which, amirite??

(for the record I'm pretty sure it's not the real guy, and there's not enough evidence to prove anything, that story should never have been published and it's fucking disgraceful how that journalist put all his pictures and details together in a high profile story, fucking sucker of satan's cock so she is... (bless you Bill Hicks )

[gielbier]

This shitstorm just added an other layer of smokescreen around satos , Well done.

The best way to stay hidden is for people to believe that you are no longer hidden at all... by using a fall guy. I hate to say it, but if I were Satoshi, I would be just fine with everyone else assuming that I was someone else. It's easy to stay hidden if nobody is looking.
