This latest "Satoshi" is a hoax though, not very credible at all.

Yes, he did sign the genesis blocks as they ran on his laptop ?

There’s no crypto key or proof of ownership of the genesis blocks  in this 
site or excerpt   
  
But the excerpt does read very well a Little too wordy for Satoshi who I 
remember as terse and matter of fact

No problem. As a proof of identity I request 1337.7331 bitcoins from one

I'll be honest, I suspect that Satoshi was either Nick Szabo, Hal Finney,
or both working together. We'll never know for sure though.

Re: Satoshi Nakamoto: Thoughts on excerpt from Duality?

2018-07-03 Thread Tom Busby
Tbf there are no (spendable) accounts which are known to be Satoshi for
sure.

There's the genesis block reward (not spendable due to a quirk in the
protocol), the address Satoshi used to send the first transaction to Hal
Finney (was this really Satoshi? We don't know for sure) and there are a
bunch of blocks that we strongly suspect were mined by Satoshi due to their
characteristics (mainly the incrementing nonce value).

Something signed with the genesis block reward address's private key would
be best proof... But still not perfect, since we don't really even know if
Satoshi was the same person over time, or if the same person operated all
the Satoshi email/forum accounts.

I don't believe this new pretender really is Satoshi  though (or,
hypothetically, any of the people who spoke as "Satoshi") because the
writing style is way off. Satoshi was never a mystic. Satoshi never spoke
in grand narratives either, just engineering pragmatism.

Satoshi actually never, ever signed anything cryptographically.

We don't even know for sure if whitepaper Satoshi, genesis block Satoshi,
email address(es, there were two) Satoshi, and BitcoinTalk Satoshi were the
same person.

As all before to date... no proof... yet what does it matter,
and is not history a footnote to futures already present,
and are not tales woven within reality interesting, plausibly
true in their own right, even philosophically leaned upon.
Arthurian Cycles, MesoAmerican Rituals, Ancient Societies...


Honne and Tatemae: We Are All Cypherpunk...

More interesting is that to truly understand adopt and use Cryptocurrency,
one must seek understand adopt Cypherpunk and surrounding philosophies.
Hundreds of millions of people worldwide are now seeking understanding,
of their own free will, as it involves an area of direct primary
executive interest in
daily life... money... not abstract vagaries of crypto / privacy /
anonymity / anarchism.
This seeking is a monumental first, it is pull, not push...
Cryptocurrency is the fabled
killer app of Cypherpunk. Its impact upon the future cannot be underestimated.
