Ahh silly guys...this is example how it could have been done, that's why the responses to these mails weren't delivered.

Someone could have bruteforced it or something, i don't know but i doubt that it's compromised anyway.

It was already been said days ago, they deactivated the account of satoshi on SF before any file changes could be made.

There's plenty of proof that it was hacked. Screenshots, people getting forwarded mails from that address and people even having conversations with it. It was hacked in some way or another.

I believe that post when he stated "I am not Dorian" is from SN. From the logs of the emails that were posted, the hacker just received access right before he sent the email to theymos. So, I believe that earlier post is legit...

Perhaps the account was for sale ('on the darknet' as mentioned by the second, current hacker), The email could have been from the first hacker that sent the 'not Dorian' message, and subsequently access to the account bought by this new guy, who wants to make back his 25 BTC so he doesn't take a loss on the purchase of the account.

Keep in mind that he won't say how he hacked it but brags about everything else, quite possibly because he simply didn't.

Also possible that SN has been killed years ago and his email account was compromised since then. Years later they tried to hide their tracks by acting like SN was still alive at that time, when they posted "I am not Dorian Nakamoto". They didn't extract the PGP key from SN, so they weren't able to sign the message as a proof, but at least it looks kinda legit using his p2pf account to post this.
 
6 month later they make up a story about an idiot hacker who is trying to make money with the identity of SN, because he somehow hacked satoshin@gmx.com and even was able to send emails to long time members of bitcointalk.org and others as a proof that Nakamotos email account has indeed been compromised. Hacker makes a screenshot of the incoming folder of SN email account and states that "Satoshi Nakamoto is still alive and his identity is going to be revealed after the payment of 25 BTC"
He fails to get the big money (only 1.5 BTC) and even was doxxed by greaterninja another bitcoitalk.org hero member.
Hacker then vanishes. with his knowledge of who is SN and his gmx account gets finally closed.

This makes a good movie...

Really good movie

the hacker DOES have access to satoshi's email. but he is also faking information. such as the cardreaderfactory email order. and also other things like pretending the bitcoin creator had a btc-e account.

http://motherboard.vice.com/read/the-satoshi-nakamoto-email-hacker-says-hes-negotiating-with-the-bitcoin-founder (half way down the article).

after all the bitcoin creator disappeared BEFORE btc-e was launched.(thus the username on btc-e is not the bitcoin creator but someone pretending to be him)

it appears that the article writer linked above, started reading this topic and then made up an interview using the screengrab links from this very topic and other fake information.

all we can be sure of is that bitoin itself cant be hacked and that this drama of who has his email is meaningless

[Bitcoins101]

If it was the real Satoshi who wrote "I am not ..", he would definitely have signed the message, as he wanted the people to believe that it really was him. He would never forget that. So it was not him.

The real Satoshi would not sign the message. Not even a chance, unless the real Satoshi is flat-out stupid.

Signing a message like that would be huge news. The price would be greatly affected (likely downwards), people would likely be even more inclined to think Dorian Nakamoto created Bitcoin, and it would encourage a lot more attention to be focused on him, which doesn't seem to be what he wants.

By not signing it, "he" created ambiguity. That was the only way to do it in order to not causes a huge ripple effect throughout the entire community.

True.
Even the originally signed message will not change the price of BTC anymore. Only dumps from his wallets will cause some panic.

Maybe the account is sold by the admin of GMX.com

Sure it's a possibility but unlikely and I'm sure this just got hacked.

LOL Literally laughed out loud at that.

I pity the person who would spend that on an email account, even with any sort of significance.

I would say messages that are to be confirmed to be from satashi would have some influence on the price of bitcoin. A message being signed with his PGP key or with the private key of one of his known mining addresses would likely be sufficient proof that the message was from him.

They key difference in this example is that it was overly clear that the messages were not coming from satashi but rather from some immature hacker/prankster. What was said via satashi's hacked accounts was nothing more then a little bit of noise to the market

I would doubt that credentials to an email account would go for that much money, even the email of a famous/significant person. I remember reading in the news that credit card number of accounts that were stolen in the Target breach were selling for only pennies on the dollar. It was also implied that the pictures of the celebs that had their pics stolen off of iCloud were sold for relatively small amounts (it was unclear as to how much was paid for them, but I got the impression it was much less then 25 BTC worth).

Also I would doubt someone as immature as the hacker appeared to have been would have had access to the resources to pay 25 BTC for the credentials to his email account
