There is literally no reason to believe Dorian is satoshi over anyone else. Just one reporter decided to randomly pick him, thats all. He COULD be satoshi, but so COULD I. Nobody knows.

Confirming! The reporter randomly picked a man named Satoshi Nakamoto in search of someone named Satoshi Nakamoto, this was done purely by chance with no consideration paid to any other external fact. Heck even you could be named Satoshi Nakamoto!

There is literally no reason to misuse words like random, nobody, and could. There is a real argument to be made about Dorian not founding Bitcoins... I think all of the members of this forum would appreciate a bit more effort.

the reasons are reasonable !! Wink Cool Cool


Here are the facts: Dorian

1) Dorian has bad english skills, he used incomplete sentences, bad punctuation, and capitilzation.

2) Dorian denied being Satoshi and said he didn't even know what Bitcoin was until 2 weeks ago

3) Dorian was relatively easy to track down

4) Dorian was working for the U.S government government on classified projects.

5) Dorian is age 64 as of 2014

6) Dorian Nakamoto graduated from California State Polytechnic University in Pomona, Calif., with a degree in physics.
7) The IP from exit point of first transaction with Finey is a dynamic Ip located around Los Angeles

Here are the facts: Satoshi Nakamoto

5) According to Satoshis many posts, he has good english skills

6) Satoshi's age is 38 years old, though most likely age 43 now since he created Bitcoin five years ago, according to the p2pfoundation profile

7) Satoshi used the Tor program to completely hide his Ip Address, so even the admin on this site had no way of tracking him down


#1 theory: Dorian is indeed Satoshi, but playing it off to his amusement, why would someone who worked on classified projects for the U.S Military not have good english skills? The letter he wrote showing his bad english was probably due to him being drunk. He also doesn't want to be in the spotlight, and thus chooses to remain anonymous, although that's gone now.

#2 theory: Dorian is Not Satoshi, Satoshi's p2pfoundation account made an announcement after years of being offline saying," I am not Dorian Nakamoto." The real Satoshi is someone completely different, with Satoshi Nakamot just being a name he made up, to confuse anyone trying to deduce his real identity in the future. He will reveal himself when he feels the time is right.

#3 theory: Satoshi Nakamoto backwards spells otomakan ihsotas which can be translated into Internet Armaggadeon, Satoshi is the the fifth horseman, the Keyboard King, who will bring an end to the internet as we know it.

#4 theory: Satoshi is a a cyborg from the future.

I haven't seen any facts yet. I've only heard circumstantial evidence.

Another weird Dorian fact....

Love this quote from the AP

Asked if he was technically able to come up with the idea for bitcoin, Nakamoto responded: "Capability? Yes, but any programmer could do that."

How many people are really technically capable?  It has been suggested that there is only three hundred people in the world with the knowledge and skill to have done this.

As with the other "...not involved anymore" quote you have to put this in the context of the conversation, i.e. asking an engineer if he could engineer something is a pretty pointless question.

So we're still at: Proof: Zero, Conjecture: Off the scale.

Why is it so hard for people to admit that we just don't know?
Throw out all theories you want, it won't bring you closer to the

Dynamic IP from Hals log file could be a also a TOR exit node.

Everyone is saying Satoshi always used TOR. (Which is probably correct.) So why it is assumed he didnt used TOR when doing the first TX with Hal?

Yes I loved that quote as well!  Grin

Maybe it was just his way to be humble though, and trying to downplay it all.

Obviously, I have no insider knowledge, but it does sounds suspisious. Dorian says he heard first about bitcoin 2-3 weeks ago, sometime says "bitcom" instead of "bitcoin" and seem to think bitcoin is a company (I have not communicate with them bitcoins Wink ) and now he is suddenly so sure that he could do it? Even having the most vague idea  what "bicoin/bitcom" is?

Lol, I think this is the exact reason so many people seem upset about it. We would like much more Bruce Lee twin - like that hilarious spoof post Wink With "Beautiful Mind", ofc

I think what he meant by that statement is that any programmer could have the capability to write such programs if they had strong ideas behind it.

I seriously doubt this guy is "the" Satoshi. In my head at least, I've convinced myself to be like 96.69% sure. That's a pretty sexy amount of sure.

I couldn't disagree more, I think Dorian Satoshi Nakamoto is supercoolGrin

Can you even imagine the discipline it takes to have hundreds of millions of dollars worth of Bitcoin and not cash them in because you would rather just "keep a low profile"?

We need more people like him in the world, who are willing to change the world for the better without caring much about the financial benefit they can get from it.

If you are reading this Dorian Satoshi Nakamoto, you are an amazing man and I am very grateful for all that you have done for us Smiley

Well, he is a geek, how cool to you expect him to be?  Wink

That being said, I do not think it's the real Satoshi either.

I am sure this is not the real Satoshi. After all the trouble to hide he won't be using his own name.

Besides I think he would be from a younger generation. 50 years at the most now.
