How Bitcoin and Blockchain inventor Satoshi can prove his identity ?

[DigitalMonk]

There is a huge demand, many people want to know, who is Satoshi ?  There are many people were thought to be Satoshi and few others are claiming to be Satoshi. Some of them are scamming investors impersonating Satoshi Nakamoto.

I think it is time for Satoshi to prove his identity and end the chapter 'hunt for Satoshi Nakamoto.'

Now,  how Satoshi can prove his identity ?

I'd find it sufficient proof to just let him provide a signed message from his never used PGP key. Other than that, a signed message from the public key of the genesis block could also work for the rest of this decade, and perhaps even a few years later than that. At some point in the far future, it can be reversed so it can't be treated as evidence forever. On the other hand, his PGP key is far more secure.

[DigitalMonk]

If he never signed any message from his PGP key then how will you know it is him ?

Does Satoshi have a PGP Public Key ?
What it is ?
Where it is ?

[BlackHatCoiner]

He's posted his PGP key, I've linked it above. He just hasn't ever signed a message with it.

I don't think he will reveal his identity publicly because I know it probably won't make him feel safe and calm, there are many ways to prove who Satoshi is but unfortunately he is more comfortable being anonymous than going public.

How do you know that was really Satoshi's PGP Key ?

Bitcoin.Org has moved to 3 or 5 different people. Where else Satoshi published his PGP Key ?

Satoshi Nakamoto is the name of the creator of the crypto asset Bitcoin and not necessarily the truth of the name.
there may be some people who actually know about it but are unwilling to publish the truth or the current whereabouts of Satoshi Nakamoto.

do you believe that your statement for Satoshi proves its existence, because bitcoin is the highest value crypto asset and Satoshi himself still holds a large part of the total Bitcoin supply.
wouldn't proving his existence create conflict and a threat to Satoshi.
but we do not know what the purpose and intent of the creators of bitcoin never publish the truth and existence.

The internet tells me he published it: https://duckduckgo.com/?q=satoshi+pgp+public+key

If you are Satoshi and you know that people are hunting you, your presence endangers not only yourself, but also those around you. So do you want to continue to let people know who you are?

We have not been able to determine if he is alive or dead but if he is alive and has decided to remain anonymous he has a reason and if he shows up now I am sure things will be messed up and interrupt his life. Revealing his identity will not benefit him.

I don't see anyone looking for him, other than the police and the government, he should continue to remain anonymous it will be good for him as well as good for us.

It's not time for Satoshi to do anything.
Staying anonymous keeps Bitcoin truly decentralized and consensus based.
If someone can be scammed by a Satoshi impersonator with no proof, then they would be scammed even if he was publicly known.

Imagine if he revealed his identity. Two things might happen. The market might crash because FUDs would start spreading. People might think that he is going to sell his coins and that will cause the market to tumble down. Or once he reveals his identity (which is going to  be a very big news), more people will be interested in bitcoin and cause the price to go up.

I doubt he is hiding or is scared to reveal his identity. He chose not to in order to keep bitcoin truly decentralized. If he did reveal his identity, people would worship him and focus more on what he would say and less on the community.

Who told you that Police and Government are looking for Satoshi ?

Are you an agent of the government or a Bitcoiner ?

There are so many journalists around the world looking for Satoshi to publish a pending news. I have never heard that Police or government are looking for Satoshi ?  Some people thinks Satoshi is working for the government and central bank. If Satoshi is part of the government then I think government has no concern about him. But it Satoshi is a Japanese or some one else then do you think Governments are so foolish that they have no idea of who is Satoshi ?

Now,  how Satoshi can prove his identity ?

Digitally signed a bitcoin address that is known to his address. Simple.

How do you know that was really Satoshi's PGP Key ?

Bitcoin.Org has moved to 3 or 5 different people. Where else Satoshi published his PGP Key ?

Forget about PGP key when you have doubt. Like I said a bitcoin address will be enough. No one was able to signed a single message yet. The reason we know faketoshi is a fake is because he has not proved anything yet even though he seems wasting a fortune to prove that he is satoshi.

[DigitalMonk]

I have read many news that few people are claiming that they are Satoshi but no government is  interested to interrogate them. Why the government did not interrogate Craig Wright and James Belal Caan ?  

Dorian Nakamoto was honest and he quickly denied and cleared his name. Also the real Satoshi sent and message in his P2P account, that help Dorian not to be bothered again by journalist.

What other way the real Satoshi can prove that he is the man behind Bitcoin and Blockchain ?

If the real Satoshi does sign a message from the PGP or Private key, how does it prove that he is the genuine Satoshi ?

[DooMAD]

The identity of satoshi is none of your damn business.  If someone you've never interacted with wishes to keep their identity hidden, they are free to do so.  They don't owe you anything.  It doesn't matter how many people are curious or how big the demand might be.  You don't have a right to know.

Doomed, are you Satodhi ?
Why are you getting angry ?
Are you hiding Satoshi in your house in the Amazone ?

Your comments has revealed that you have secret concern about Satoshi ?

Identity of Satoshi is my Bitcoin Business. If I find the Identity of #satoshi then I can sell it to the News Media and they will give me some money to spend for my charity work.

You came from not knowing anything about bitcoin. Then with the offshore bitcoin trading company followed by the block-explorer idea which was basically a DEX that you were looking for not knowing the difference between a block-explorer and a DEX. And now you are looking for satoshi to help your business.

Why would anyone care for you? Do you have anyone on the table for others?
Leave satoshi in peace.



Just wondering why all these trolls join the forum one after another and keep trolling for nothing. Do they get paid for it?

[franky1]

satoshi does not need to come back, the bitcoin code is clear to read and has no backdoors.
nothing can be gained about the bitcoin protocol from satoshi..

for those curious about the guy for human interest sake, he doesnt need to come forward.. so find another interest, interview someone you can find. else your life will be wasted on fantasy interviews you will never have(even if he came forward what makes you think he wants to answer randoms/no-bodies, and be poked for answers xmillion times)

for those that feel it would solve all CSW lies by the real satoshi slapping CSW, it wont. CSW will just accuse satoshi of being the late arrival impersonator where CSW will lie and make more false claims that satoshi is a thief(he has primed that already with current lies)

to destroy CSW requires catching CSW in his lies(perjury)

I don't like people with an inflated sense of entitlement.  You just assume you're worthy of being given personal information that doesn't belong to you.

If I find the Identity of #satoshi then I can sell it to the News Media and they will give me some money to spend for my charity work.

You have grossly misunderstood the meaning of the word "charity".

Interesting post, Franky1 I am confused after reading your comment. 

How do you know that CSW is a liar ?
How CSW can accused Satoshi ?

What will be the outcome ?

In that case, You Franky1 a British born educated person can advocate for Satoshi and find a good solicitor. After all, Satoshi can provide to the court the cryptographic proof of Evidence that he is Satoshi.
