Really? That just looks like a much too long (targeted to journalists) description of ECDSA signing. Where's the _actual_ signature?
- wutbrodo 10y agoIt's near the beginning of the post.
- asdfaoeu 10y agoAre you referring to > IFdyaWdodCwgaXQgaXMgbm90IHRoZSBzYW1lIGFzIGlmIEkgc2lnbiBDcmFpZyBXcmlnaHQsIFNh dG9zaGkuCgo= It's just a base64 encoded string.
- acqq 10y agoAnd the string starts with space and ends with two line feeds: " Wright, it is not the same as if I sign Craig Wright, Satoshi.\n\n"

- LeoPanthera 10y agoThe message is the Sartre quote at the top of the post. Edit: No it's not.

- maaku 10y agoNo, it is (supposedly) a longer document of which only a portion is shown in a screenshot.
- capitalsigma 10y agoHere is the full document: http://www.nybooks.com/articles/1964/12/17/sartre-on-the-nobel-prize/ http://www.nybooks.com/articles/1964/12/17/sartre-on-the-nob... but since getting a single piece of whitespace wrong would throw the hash off completely, that isn't terribly useful. Though it seems that it should be possible to brute force every reasonable permutation of formatting for the article and find one whose hash matches the one he provided, if it's the real source. The search space of "documents within a string edit distance of N" is probably not too large.
