It's a total bullshit.

[jossiel]

There will always be people claiming that they believed and knew who Satoshi Nakamoto is. In reality, it's our choice to believe them or not but most likely, the majority won't believe whenever some claims that he is Satoshi or whenever someone points out that who Satoshi is.

The article I think is just also part of a marketing for their "Diet Bitcoin" fork.

Because it was mentioned.

There are lots of rumors and conspiracy who Satoshi really is but none of the proves their claim. Talking about the real identity of satoshi is truly a great entertainment but it doesn't mean that we need to force ourselves in disclosing an identity of a person who doesn't even want a spotlight  .

In fact, satoshi can be an alien, man, woman, a company or a non-binary. Again, it is entertaining but it will never shed some light.

Whoever it was, I think most people will not entertain any kind of theory regarding the real identity of Satoshi Nakamoto  as there has been a lot already and until now, we are still blank on who really is Satoshi Nakamoto in real life, I would say it's a total waste of time if we entertain this kind of theory, unless there is a valid evidence that would really connect to the real Satoshi Nakamoto.

Thing is, the market has evolved even with  Satoshi Nakamoto's identity remained anonymous, so how would it change bitcoin?

[Slow death]

because every year we have new characters who say they met satoshi? sometimes even the person considers himself satoshi and I believe that by the end of the year we will see more people claiming that they met satoshi or that they are satoshi. If this Pablo Escobar family really knew satoshi nakamoto, then they would have said that years ago and I very much doubt that people like Faketoshi did not know about this story. In my opinion these descendants of Pablo Escobar want to gain attention thanks to bitcoin the worst part of this story Is when they say that the supposed satoshi nakamoto that his real name is Yasutaka Nakamoto smuggled cocaine to Pablo, which definitely does not help bitcoin image. I'm glad that he (Yasutaka Nakamoto) is not satoshi nakamoto

[freedomgo]

Was Craig Steven Wright one of the descendants of Pablo Escobar? 

Another interesting article for people who like to know the real identity of Satoshi Nakamoto, check out the thread.

[gentlemand]

I believe with all my heart that Satoshi would not have used his real surname as this would be a ever so slightly large security slip up.

I do also believe that he was only human so would be worried about forgetting his original name. Therefore he would've slightly changed it.

Due to my research I wholeheartedly believe Satoshi is Dr Shakamoto - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sfs4vGDMWBE

[20kevin20]

Are we going to trust the words of someone descending from Pablo's family tree? Although it's not Pablo himself, it's going to be quite hard for me and most others to trust any of his relatives. Especially after his Diet Bitcoin, which turned into a huge fail and possible scam (heard of it before the launch, but never kept up to date with it).

At this point, it's probably going to be pretty hard even for Satoshi himself to come out and prove he's the legit one especially if he hasn't planned for his identity reveal from the beginning.

Next hot article headline: "Bitcoin founder Satoshi Nakamoto rumoured to be the great grandson of Adolf Hitler"

Seriously. These "cRyPtO nEwS sItEs" are running out of ideas.

[Kemarit]

I don't know why this keeps popping, very old news, two years ago, Pablo Escobar's Brother Says He Met an FBI Agent Posing As Satoshi Nakamoto.

I'm not sure what happen to the project, but I guess they need to create another news so that people's interest will be piqued, but Nah, I don't think so. There is no connection whatsoever.

That would go against my theory that Satoshi Nakamoto is actually Sakamoto https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kbIAXj6eajQ
Also, the anime was released in 2011 so it makes sense, Satoshi is now a cat!, that's why he disappeared.

Oh, I don't know much about this Olof K. Gustafsson, but that pic...I'm sure he is one real big blocker!!!!!

Seriously. These "cRyPtO nEwS sItEs" are running out of ideas.

That makes sense, Elfriede Raubal died in 1993, the same year as Pablo Escobar, so it actually might all have been a cover-up by the CIA and Mossad  

[yazher]

How can this be? I mean how people come up with this idea? this is ridiculous. the funniest theory I've ever heard about Bitcoin. This is hilarious to Craigh Wright's claims. How can they link the Drug king to Satoshi Nakamoto? they are two different pages. I think people need to think about their claim before posting it in social media to avoid humiliation from the netizens.

This with Adolf Hitler is my favourite.  
Yey, so true, they seem to be obsessed who will publish the most incredible theory about origin of Satoshi. So many unbelivable conspiracy theories appear all the time and I don't know why people are so interested in it.
Even if they new the true identity of Satoshi why would that be so important for them or Bitcoin community. Just let the man be...

The Escobars Believe They’ve Found the Real Satoshi ...
- https://cointelegraph.com/news/the-escobars-believe-theyve-found-the-real-satoshi

"... In a recent phone call with Cointelegraph, Gustaffson — right-hand man to Pablo’s brother Robert — relayed this fantastical version of events in an effort, he says, to silence some of the furor created by self-proclaimed Satoshi Nakamoto, Craig S. Wright. ..."

...

Whilst not being the same candidate I've found in my own research ...

I guess when even Escobar Inc. is asserting that Craig S. Wright is NOT satoshi, one kind of has to agree!

...

 
Hey "Satoshi" ... I think I found you ...
 

 
Am I right ?

 
 
N.B. I'm actually being serious here!

The individual in question is not in the OP.   

[Vatimins]

     Seriously. I really am growing tired of news such as this. The damn person doesn't want to be found!! Leave the damn person alone for goodness's sake! I really cannot understand what these people get for continuously trying to find the "real founder" of Bitcoin(s). Clearly enough, the person doesn't want the fame or recognition. He or she obviously wants to live a peaceful life away from other people's eyes and ears. Why not just let the person be rather than talking about lots of bullcrap that can't even prove anything. Gosh.

Gustaffson tells Thomson that they believe Bitcoin’s creator is a person named Yasutaka Nakamoto"

I consulted my crystal sphere, and she revealed to me that one of these people from the link must be Satoshi Nakamoto. Of course the surname Nakamoto is very common in Japan, so there are probably thousands of potential candidates. If we can't find Satoshi already, maybe we should start looking for his relatives

This with Escobar is really one of the bigger nonsense I’ve ever read, and these journalists should get a lifetime award for nonsense.

[Kong Hey Pakboy]

I think the evidences and proofs are not enough and not valid to consider that people know Satoshi Nakomoto in your article because to be honest it is very easy for a person to claim that they knew about Satoshi and making silly stories about him. So we shouldn't believe them too easily because it is really very hard for us to know who is Satoshi Nakamoto truly is.

[danherbias07]

No, I don't think so,
Is there no stopping with this claim?
Couldn't we just let go of that and move on? I know it is important for some of us here but does it really matter now?
It had been 12 years already and I think that is enough to say he doesn't want to be seen.

[Tipstar]

The brother of Yasutaka Nakamoto was an engineer and these boys seem to be closely protected by the CIA. Nakamoto brothers lives in USA and have some of their records deleted for their own safety. Yasutaka is a master of privacy and he could be master of many more things. This may be another conspiracy but it has some dots to connect.
