Craig Wright says he WILL NOT be submitting proof he's SN.

I'm Sorry

I believed that I could do this. I believed that I could put the years of anonymity and hiding behind me. But, as the events of this week unfolded and I prepared to publish the proof of access to the earliest keys, I broke. I do not have the courage. I cannot.

When the rumors began, my qualifications and character were attacked. When those allegations were proven false, new allegations have already begun. I know now that I am not strong enough for this.

I know that this weakness will cause great damage to those that have supported me, and particularly to Jon Matonis and Gavin Andresen. I can only hope that their honour and credibility is not irreparably tainted by my actions. They were not deceived, but I know that the world will never believe that now. I can only say I'm sorry.

And goodbye.

Total bullshit, "I give up, you guys will never believe me. I am Satoshi though, really. I wont prove it but I am, and it's your guys fault for bullying me!"

Laughable


[3 Points] mercilesssgirth:

whether he's SN or not maybe but he's a fucking douchebag for sure.


[2 Points] Just-Touch-It:

Could someone tell me who SN was? I've only been using the markets for about 4 months now.


[2 Points] TenryRollins:

Craig Wright isn't even his real name. Its actually Rick Dyer and i have the proof in my microwave.

Yea guess he's a poser, the real satoshi will probably never go public for fear of the legal shitstorm that would follow him going public.

BTC is not taxed and mainly used for drugs and money laundering, plus cryptocurrency could actually compete with fiat (pretty sure that was satoshi's idea)

He's probably just living a normal life with a cheap house and a cheap car, maybe a wife and some kids. I doubt the real satoshi will ever reveal himself and I bet he doesn't even have access to all those coins he has, or if he does he doesn't care about the money.

This guy is the equivalent of that fat kid on the playground whose "uncle works at Nintendo, he told me you can get mewtwo under the truck!"


[1 Points] aboutthednm:

He won't

more like, he can't


[1 Points] Selectivescammer1:

He was involved, there isn't much doubt in that, but he is not Satoshi Nakamoto. He just wants to claim Satoshi's bitcoins further down the line, that's his agenda imo.

There is a real disconnect between Satoshi's actions, and Craig Wright as a person, because they are not the same person. CW is so unconvincing in the BBC interview and just comes across as very shifty.

That's because he's not. He's just a mentally unstable attention whore.


[-1 Points] DatMaxFreak:

If he convinced the core devs then it's enough for me. There's no way he could have known details of private conversations between SN and Gavin. Unless SN got hacked at some point. Seems pretty far-fetched.

What is NOT far-fetched is BBMC's theories about SR1 and MtGox. He's far from the only person to have made this connection. Although, I seem to remember BitPay playing a rather large role in the SR1 fiasco as well.

He looks a douchebag to us. Imagine how Satoshi's widow, Fran, feels about him?

Satoshi identified himself by his email address when he was alive. Bitcoin enthusiasts are beginning to notice that he's been pretty quiet lately.

The very first bitcoins moved on 6 Feb 2014, everybody assumed Satoshi moved them to a newer wallet. But 1.2 million btc moved that day, because MTGOX was emptied.I think they were in a MTGOX wallet. you have to remember that bitcoin was basically a toy currency used in a computer game until SilkRoad decided to use it as the water in a heat exchanger, with it's radiator in Tokyo, where the heat was turned into $US for vendors. Bitcoin would have disappeared into obscurity like every crypto before it and after it without SilkRoad and drugs.

Ross used MTGOX like a hot wallet, because it was basically SilkRoad's sister site. He even used it for hedging the bitcoin price, it was an option we could choose on the first SilkRoad.

I think SR2.0 might have used MTGOX in a similar way, because the escrow was stolen the following weekend, on Feb 13 2014. I think SR2.0 HAD to use the escrow to stay solvent after losing the money it held in MTGOX.

When I was following the stolen escrow, I found 1.2 million btc - the MTGOX cash - and couldn't understand how I'd found it by accident. I now realize that its because the SilkRoad franchise and MTGOX are inseperable. It also explains why some cops at Ross' trial believed that Mark Karpeles was DPR.
