An account once associated with Bitcoin (BTC) creator Satoshi Nakamoto on the non-profit global network P2P Foundation posted a one-word status update yesterday, Nov. 29.

While the account is tied to Nakamoto’s old email address satoshin@gmx.com — the same address that reportedly uploaded one of the early Bitcoin papers to P2P back in 2009 — the same email was allegedly hacked in November 2014, four years after Nakamoto’s withdrawal from traceable online activity in late 2010.

The meaning of yesterday’s update, which reads simply “nour,” in quotation marks, is not easily deciphered. The top result on Google search leads to urbandictionary.com, which defines “nour” as the following:

“The most loving, affectionate and caring person you'll ever meet. Extremely smart, funny and sensitive. A bit lost, still figuring out what she wants in life and how to reach it. Stubborn and not willing to take other peoples advice. When she smiles she makes you forget all the problems you have, her hug will give you an assurance that you have never felt and will never do.”

Another possibility is that “nour” is a transliteration of Arabic “نور” for “light,” also used to mean “light” or “fire” in ancient Hebrew (“נור,” “nour”) and Aramaic (“,נורא” “noura”): the latter is used in the “Haggadah,” the text used to set the order of the ritual for the Jewish festival of Passover.

Alongside the cryptic four-letters, the account also befriended a user named Wagner Tamanaha, whose profile indicates he is based in São Paulo, Brazil. Tamanaha has acknowledged the “befriending,” tweeting today in Portuguese, “Parece que o Satoshi reapareceu e estou sendo investigado :-) [“Looks like Satoshi's reappeared and I'm being investigated :-)”].

Publicly-shared posts on Tamanaha’s Facebook page suggest he is currently active in the Brazilian blockchain and crypto community, and his blogspot profile contains a post titled “Social networks with crypto media Steemit, coming together in the blockchain revolution,” dated November  2016.

Although we all know it is from a hacked account it is good to know that whoever it is, is simply telling us that there is light at the end of the tunnel. After this bear market is over there will be an exponential rise in crypto values.

What if I took over that account and wrote that I'll exploit a bug so severe, that the whole network will crash? What would that do with you?

It wouldn't even surprise me if news outlets are doing this themselves, all to have something different to write about than usual price up or price down articles. It's something non crypto news outlets have been doing for years, so why wouldn't it be happening here as well?

Contact me when someone (whoever it may be) signs from the genesis block. All other shit is, well, shit, nonsense.

Afaik, the original domain of Satoshi's email had expired long time ago, then someone bought that domain and took over his email. So, it means absolutely nothing, and it's good to see that there was almost no reaction to this, because most people understood that it doesn't mean anything. Plus, if Satoshi did return, he wouldn't write a one-word post and add some random guy as his first message to the community.

As stated above, if the entities claiming to be satoshi but can't provide the evidence by signing a message from the address the first ever block reward was sent to, you can safely assume that you're dealing with an impersonator.

It's so easy to come to that conclusion yourself, but people somehow still have some degree of believe that anyone stating to be satoshi without signing a message can actually be that...

Satoshi's main job is to stay away from anything related to publicity, because every sign of life from him will make it easier for agencies and whatever else to find him. They would love to have a word or two with him, I'm sure of that.

BSV is not the real Bcash. Bcash is the real Bcash.
