John McAfee says he received call from Satoshi Nakamoto asking not to be reveal

[Barbut]

John McAfee will say anything to get a lot of attention and to stay relevant on Social media. He is also one of the most controversial characters in the Bitcoin scene. He will promote shady Alt coins if you pay him to boost it on social media and will say the most crazy things to get people's attention.

A few months ago, he promised to cut off his genitals, if the price did not go to a million dollars and guess what happened then... absolutely nothing.

The guy had so much potential, but he pissed it away on drugs and booze and prostitutes.    Just Google, " Gringo: The Dangerous Life of John McAfee " and watch the documentary.   Source : https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gringo:_The_Dangerous_Life_of_John_McAfee

Yes, he will say anything for attention! I admit he was interesting to follow in the beginning, but lately, he makes outrages statements, he is acting like a complete fool! I unfollowed him, I can't bear his nonsense anymore!
I just took a pick on this documentary, killing, rapping, running away from US, coming back to US. Who can say this really happened, or he bribed some people to show up in this documentary?! Attacking himself, then defending?! Too much mystery about John and I am not into that!

Another attention seeker guy trying to pull out some scene but sad to say no one will ever believe him now. If he is trying to spread some news about Satoshi Nakamoto to make some fuds, well, giving up is the only choice for him.
Satoshi doesn't want to be revealed ever since and leave without a trace so that means he wanted to stay anonymous.
All I wanna say to him;

Stay out of it, John McAfee.

Wouldn't a game be better than GTA: San Andreas? 

A game regarding the life of John McAfee would probably end up as an epic failure since very few people are interested in his life these days. Personally, I have gotten bored of his useless gimmicks. People need to stop paying him attention.

Stay out of it, John McAfee.

He won't ever give up. This is a man who lost himself inside a cesspit of shit these days and is competing with Craig Wright(Pun intended) on a regular basis. The only way he will probably give up is if he ignore him completely.

It so surprising for someone who's dont understand what bitcoin is some years ago claiming to have find who Satoshi but after McAfee mentioned the name CSW this did catch off gurard cause i think CSW have just pay McAfee for this service and after McAfee advertised shitcoin theres nothing he cant do for his selfishness reason.

Nowadays no one cares what McAfee says. He always tries to be on news headlines. He knows that there are lot of buzzes about the true identity of Satoshi Nakamoto on the crypto world, so he is making a try to seek attention with that.

It good to know that most crypto investors and enthusiasts have understand what to believe in order to avoid panic in the market.

CSW and McAfee IMO should join forces and become best buddies with their neverending web of lies. McAfee is an extremely opportunistic man willing to grab everything that benefits him no matter the circumstances. The dude used to have a straight mind and an admirable character until the money and greed get a hold of him. It's unbelievable that satoshi would make contact with someone who is literally wasting his life away just to say 'please'.

Or drugs took over and created John to what he is in the last decade or so. Take everything with a grain of salt here, and as far as I know he is on the run from US, a fugitive. Maybe the US government doesn't see him as a threat though, that's why he can still go and have some media exposure. But then again, we all know that everything he says is just full of mind blowing stories. And now that he uses Satoshi's name to gain back the spotlight on him. Satoshi choose to remain anonymous so I'm sure that he didn't have any contact or even have this phone conversation with John.

[milewilda]

Does anyone who do still believe into this man? If we do just recall all the things he had done in the past then im surely believe 99% would just simply ignore on what are the words that would come out to his mouth
and also how in the world would Satoshi would contact McAfee and telling his reason why he cant just let himself be revealed into the public? Wondering on what would be the next joke he would
tell to the public.LOL!

[TheGreatPython]

Okay, this is starting to turn into a joke . How about the government get him arrested and ask him to reveal the identity of Satoshi Nakamoto, if it's really that serious lol? I don't know why he keeps repeating it everyday that he knows who Satoshi's Nakamoto is, like who cares? I guess he's just doing this to save himself from shame, because he already lied at first that he knows Satoshi Nakamoto and would be revealing him in a few days which he failed to do.

Now he might be saying this to make seem like he really knows him, while the truth must be complete different. McAfee is owning/sponsoring many cryptos and to promote them, he might be doing this kind of stunts, who knows?

[Ozero]

Really? again? He is saying that is about to reveal who Satoshi is, DÉJÀ VU, I've saw this so many times.
John McAfee said he not only knows who Satoshi Nakamoto is but he received a call from the creator of Bitcoin asking that his name not be revealed for fear of complications with the government and his personal safety.

That is, John McAfee first attracted attention by declaring that he knew who Satoshi Nakamoto was and was going to publish his name, although he could do it right away, without such a preliminary statement. Now, he is drawing attention to himself not even with the predicted request of Satoshi, but with the very fact of a call allegedly from Satoshi Nakamoto, since the answer to the eternal question about whether Nakamoto himself is alive is being clarified. After this, of course, McAfee will declare that he cannot but fulfill Satoshi’s request and we will again think to believe it or not, and McAfee will again be in the center of public attention, which he sought. Do not believe this old liar.

i think mcafee threw funds towards CSW. and got scammed. but then CSW(scammer) told him the only way to get funds back is to pretend he knows satoshi. so that one day he can write a biography of his adventures and make money on the book deal and public speech invitations.

just you wait. there will be a price tag attached to any mcafee revelations.
problem mcafee forgets is anyone can get a free copy of anything these days and no one will pay for a book to debunk it when they can download free copies that turn up and debunk it.

i understand the game is then more books to canonicalise the mis-adventures of how he realised he was the duped. and then more books about how it all escalated into years of reputation killing drama at his expense. and more books about how he feels ashamed and guilty. and more books and more books.. basically turning any drama into a book deal..

but the end of the day is that mcafee doesnt know satoshi. and is just looking for new 15 minutes of fame moments. like most scammers do

Nice joke, but I don't think McAfee is too insane or makes his posts because he's under drugs, he is making money and stays relevant to his fanbase for making exactly this kind of statements, so it's nothing surprising that he makes yet another crazy tweet. It would be best if we all took effort to give him less attention, by not creating topics about his actions, and limit it all to just debunking him if some newbies ask about him.

According to Cointelegraph he is one of the most 100 People influencers in The Blockchain nowadays, Does anyone here listen to him?

Let him first fulfill his promise regarding his forecast of $ 1 million, or rather, what he said will do, if this is not so. And then already, it will be possible to listen to him, what he could come up with this time. In the meantime, his words are worth nothing at all.

It's not relevant if he posts under drugs or not. The relevant part is that whenever and whatever he posts about crypto, the news and crypto forums ... all start "going out for jogging".
Too much fuss for somebody who changes his statements because ... whatever.

The only solution is to ignore both these clowns, the problem i see is that everyone is waiting to see what they say and then jump on to give them publicity, in the beginning it was fun to listen their drama but it is more than 4 year and still they are continuing which is weary.

What problems are you talking about . Ignore them and move on and they have nothing to do with the bitcoin community.

[Yourhomeboy]

John McAfee is a know clown on twitter that replies to a tweet on his comment box. The last time I checked he said something about how many times he has gone to jail and the countries he has been convicted. So he just wants to trend, I don't think Satoshi knows him he is focused on virus and internet security. He just acquired a little knowledge of Bitcoin invested and wouldn't let people rest.
