But Satoshi was all business whenever he talked to us on the forums. He never joked about. How do we know how he just took on that persona when he was using his bitcointalk account?

Satoshi is hiding and reading some of his posts, he would never ever search media attention or acknowledge he is Da Satoshi.
It's safe to say, he is not Craig Wright.

He will never sign an address, even if everything is pointing to him, why would he do so? If he does it than it's just to confirm 100% that he is Satoshi and I don't think he would want to prove this 100% at least not in this moment!

Waiting for that PGP signature or movement of coins from the first blocks... let me guess, not going to happen.
This guy totally doesn't fit the profile of Satoshi.

Not sure why you had to complicate it this much.


Couldn't you just put "yes" and "no"?

Voted "No, no doubt".

Too late, was thinking the same, but we better not create any FUD. Markets are doing great.

Yeah he would seem to have a motive but how exactly would pretending to be Satoshi help with his tax problems? Only thing I can think of is he says don't take my stuff for back taxes, because I have this hoard of bitcoins that I can't access until 2020.

From what I've seen if it isn't him it's one hell of a hoax, then again most of the information is from supposed leaked emails which obviously he could have leaked himself.  The thing is this Gwern person who broke the story seems to be fairly respected, so for that reason I think there's still a chance.  Too bad for them if it turns out to be a hoax.  Sounds like Wired and Gizmodo we're racing to be first and may have cut some corners.

Hopped back..
to edit out some shit about Gwern,
I like his taste in anime -

like this guy too!

You believe this community has an effect on the price?  4 years ago, maybe...

Btw, it's China driving BTC in this wave.

No way, does not sound very legit to me.
