All the links are of Kevin Lim that listed for sale lifepath.me on eBay of which Zhou Tong owned at the time of it's listing. This is the definitive proof that there is no Zhou Tong, but some other person, namely Kevin Lim.

What are you smoking Bruno? Zhou doesn't even own ISTHEREASON.COM. Zhou's domain WHOIS record shows Zhou's information.

After watching this video of Kevin Lim, You'll swear it's Atlas' Asian cousin: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3LnfG-VKNkA

That is correct! Kevin Lim owns isthereason.com. Kevin Lim is the same person that was selling lifepath.me on eBay at the time that Zhou Tong owned it. Zhou Tong even mentions lifepath.me on his Twitter account(s) prior to it being for sale on eBay. The email addresses even match up.

If ZouhTong is not a real person...WHO did Matthew from Bitcoin Magazine interview in that Video for Bitcoinica ?

http://bitcoinmagazine.net/10-questions-with-zhou-tong/

WTF ?

https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=43861.0

http://bittalk.tv/?p=105

Some other Asian guy with a more mature voice than a 16(+)-year-old. A PLANT! Listen to "Zhou Tong" again in that video.

~Bruno~


Zhoutong -

To end this speculation just skype right now with one of the forum respected members.  I just listened to that interview you had.  If this is really you, I do not doubt that your english is that proficient, and I would imagine you are proficient at many other things.  

To me, some of the interview seems "scripted."  Just my opinion.  Not that it matters, it could still be your voice.  And I do believe that could be your voice, the voice of a 17 year old.  But, since there is all the sudden this idea floating around, why not put it to rest?  



Isn't it my best interest to be a fake person right now?

I'm trying to do good and help people, but people don't give any merit to that.

To end the speculation now, Zhou Tong is fake and the guy behind it wants to help Bitcoinica customers to get their money back. Bitcoinica is just an illusional product that has never been built.

I believe some people will be very satisfied now.

Now that I have tracked down the official registration information for AurumXchange are you willing to provide them to proper documentation to get this cleared up? Your aggressive stance with them does not help your case at this point.
+1

I openly boycott the Bitcoinica Consultancy team or Intersango: Donald Norman, Patrick Strateman and Amir Taaki

Bruno, where are you going with all your links?  Can you give us a TLDR summary of what you believe your research will demonstrate?

The way I'm reading it you seem to be asserting that "Zhou the 17 year old wunderkind creator of Bitcoinica" is a fiction created by Tihan and others.  If your theory is correct then it's a fiction which was created well before Bitcoinica and not explicitly for the purpose of Bitcoinica, but I'm having a bit of trouble understanding the purpose for which you believe the "character" of Zhou was created.




All I can say is that this is Bitcoin. I don't believe it until I see six confirmations.

I don't usually tell stories, but when I do, I'm making fun of myself.

"Zhou Tong and Satoshi share the same back-man. The guy created a Chinese character and a Japanese one, and he chose Satoshi to be the Bitcoin creator because his achievements in cryptography made him more appropriate. Later he realized that Satoshi couldn't make enough money, so he used the prepared Zhou Tong to start BitcoinICA and a planned BitcoinIGG, which stands for:

I Come Abruptly,
I Go Gently."

No, not fun. I'm still sad and I didn't talk in class for the whole day.

I wish I have a girlfriend.

Didn't you hear? You already have one! It's me! (Supposedly)

Fair advice: If you do get a girlfriend, never show her to or tell the community about her because they'll find a way to try to lynch mob her too for something she didn't do out of some misguided sense of justice.

Matthew, you are in reference to zhoutong.com and not lifepath.me of which Zhou Tong has never mentioned on this forum.

Didn't you work for law enforcement in South Korea, yet don't see the proof I'm leaving on the desk?

You're allowed to talk in class? I couldn't help but notice that you've yet to make up a story telling us how you're not Kevin Lim. While you're thinking of one, I'll go get the marshmallows for the fire.

And is this you, too?

Hi all,

If you live in Singapore, and want to buy Bitcoins quickly and (optionally) anonymously, I'm willing to sell.

Thank you.

If it is, it looks like you got a lot of business from that thread seeing all those posters phrasing your name.

Yes, they are all me. I'm Tom Williams's son actually. Dick Williams and Harry Williams are his two brothers.

My credit card says I'm John Q. Citizen, and my tax return says I'm John Taxpayer instead. I don't know how they can change my surname so easily.

And then today I received a court order addressing me as John Doe. :-(

My computer username is foobar. I'm known as Eve among hacker friends Alice and Bob.

My personal website is example.com, by the way.
