Mr Bitcoin: "I don't want money, I don't want fame!" BBC News

Australian entrepreneur Craig Wright has publicly identified himself as Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto. His admission ends years of speculation about who came up with the original ideas underlying the digital cash system. Mr Wright has provided technical proof to back up his claim using coins known to be owned by Bitcoin's creator. Prominent members of the Bitcoin community and its core development team have also confirmed Mr Wright's claim.

@@ScorpionXII I understand where you're coming from, however defamation and libel are criminal offenses. If I claim I invented something sure I have to prove it.

That's why hes suing ppl. So he can prove it in court, in front of a judge on his own terms.

[@ScorpionXII]

@@Ahmadalyasiry123 The fact that Craig has not proven his case demonstrates that those who claim that his case is false are innocent of libel. Our justice system is based upon the concept of innocent until proven guilty, and this concept is rooted in a basic philosophical understanding of the burden of proof. The burden of proof is always on the person who makes the positive claim, such as... I am X, or he did X, the person who rejects the positive claim holds no burden of proof, and is innocent until the person making the positive claim proves otherwise. If Craig write demonstrates his case, then anybody who rejects his case would then be guilty of libel, but as it stands now... nobody is guilty of libel.

The locking script also contains a public key, as it is a "pay to pubkey" transaction. To that public key belongs a private key. This is the key that people talk about when they talk about "signing a message with a block key". Go to a bitcoin block explorer, look up block 0, and see for yourself that it contains a transaction.

obviously they paid this man to pretend to be satoshi so the real satoshi nakamoto would see this video and get upset and finally come out of the shadows and reveal himself. too bad for them, satoshi will forever stay anonymous.

For anybody calling this out as BS, do your research first. Read the bloke's papers (at least the abstract sections) as well as his book "The IT Regulatory and Standards Compliance Handbook ". Given the academic background and the publications he had, in addition to the coins owned by the Bitcoin's creator which he proved to possess; it's highly likely this specific mind is behind Bitcoin.

Satoshi Nakamoto mined the genesis block with a timestamp and can be identified by it... The hash of the genesis block, 000000000019d6689c085ae165831e934ff763ae46a2a6c172b3f1b60a8ce26f, has two more leading hex zeroes than were required for an early block. The genesis block is almost always hardcoded into the software of the applications that utilize its block chain. The coinbase parameter (seen above in hex) contains, along with the normal data, the following text: The Times 03/Jan/2009 Chancellor on brink of second bailout for banks. "This was probably intended as proof that the block was created on or after January 3, 2009, as well as a comment on the instability caused by fractional-reserve banking. Additionally, it suggests that Satoshi Nakamoto may have lived in the United Kingdom." So he can be Satoshi Nakamoto.

I am a software developer - and I know bit coin is too complicated to be built by a single individual working with others. It takes a dedicated - paid - team to build something like this. You need a team of mathematicians, engineers, software developers ect, ect, ect. The question now is who sets the rules on bit coin? Example how many blocks = 1 bit coin. There got to be a main control source. Software cannot think.

[@thomasshearer8403]

Exactly, and as he stated in the video, he said he was a big part of it , it being Satoshi Nakamoto, the team who built bitcoin. I haven't seen anyone else in the space, apart from Craig Wright, give as detailed talks or explanations on exactly how blockchains work.. He has my respect for doing this, and it's perfectly understandable why he did the ONE interview.. to stop people badgering his staff and all those around constantly.

Craig grew up with his mother who had a divorce and was in a relationship with a Japanese man, his name was Satoshi, and was a father figure to Craig from an early age, as well as his karate instructor. He also had a girlfriend who frequently travelled to and from Japan. Nakamoto comes from a Japanese philosopher Tominaga Nakamoto who Craig admired; Nakamoto signifies wise or intelligent history. The word and name simultaneously means clever or order, and implies a wise ancestry and a history that is connected. The blockchain is born. Craig wrote the white paper.

He is extremely bright, there are 100s of interviews on youtube about him explaining bitcoin in great detail. Of course Dave Kleiman & Hal Finney were part of the team which helped, but Craig was the driving force and author of the white paper (British English not North American). Unless any other evidence comes to light, that is at the present moment the most logical conclusion. Most people form their conclusion based on if they like or dislike Craig, which has nothing to do with the fact that he is either Satoshi or not. There in lies the problem.
