Hoaxity hoax hoax.

Man people are having a field day with this whole Satoshi business.

[Lauda]

Obviously it was a hoax.

I believe anyone can generate a new pgp key with anyone's email address then re-upload it to the gpp server

[GigaCoin]

thought we were onto something there for a sec, another hoax

[Ytterbium]

This is fake, duh.

Then how did they back-date it on the SKS keyserver?

By hacking it? I've never even heard of the site. Who knows how secure it is.  The email address "mtn_sssh@hotmail.com" doesn't show up anywhere else on the web. Supposedly the Dorian S. Nakamoto sig was added in 2008, a few months before the genesis block was authored.

IMO this is b.s. How often did Dorian use S as his middle initial before this article came out?  His full name is "Dorian Prentice Satoshi Nakamoto" -  He'd likely use Dorian P. S. Nakamoto if he wanted to use include middle initials. It's only been after the story broke that people have been refering to to him as "Dorian S. Nakamoto", presumably to remind people that his name includes "Satoshi Nakamoto"

Seems really  unlikely to me.

Everyone can generate GPG key with any e-mail or date. This is why you should determine the validity of signatures and key itself by properly using web of trust.

P.S. I made genuine signature to satoshi's key. He have surprisingly few signatures despite the key's importance and being at spotlight of crypto community.

i think satoshi paid dorian to be satoshi. now the poor old guy is fucked.

All this trouble for a free Brunch!??!? FUUUUUUUuuuu

[BidcoinBernd]

Of course he is Satoshi. People are still in denial?
Both use double spaces. Chance of coincidence is like generating two identical keypairs.

[genco]

Double spaces is the proper way of writing (review an English guidebook) so that tells us nothing.

Dorian is clearly Satoshi though; it's clear that he is channeling John Galt on many levels.

He doesn't take a pseudonym or hide (instead working on his passion in plain sight), he sought no recognition for his accomplishments, he wore that anarcho-capitalist hat in plain sight (which is an analogue to the "dollar-sign" cigarettes Galt smoked), and by denying credit he lets his name is become the rallying cry ala "who is John Galt."

It is fake.

I noticed it too and like you I asked the same question and got the answer that I am giving you.
It is fake!

[zero3112]

Its really crazy now.  Someone has made an address before bitcoin was even invented.
