If you've ever seen Back's twitter you would know he's not Satoshi. I'm still firmly in the Finney camp.
Every couple years one of these articles shows up focusing on one of the core Satoshi suspects, at least do a Wei Dai one next time.
- Ancapistani 6mo agoI’m also in the Finney camp. The most important bit to me is that doing something like this would be entirely in-line with his personality. Also, I think he truly believed there was a good chance he’d eventually be brought back. The most likely case in my mind is that he died with the private keys in his head, and that we’ll never get confirmation.
- mijoharas 6mo agoSo I just searched the article for Finney to see why it claimed it wasn't him. It claims Satoshi was active after Finney had died? What's that about? I used to be of the opinion that it was probably hal, but haven't paid too much attention. What's the counter evidence here? And why do we disregard that?
- int32_64 6mo agoSatoshi's email accounts were presumably hacked in 2014 and the emails sent from them later were presumed fake because they lacked PGP signatures.
- cloche 6mo agoDo you have a link for Satoshi's post after Hal had died?
- ak_111 6mo agoI am also not sure about Finney, but Hal saw his death coming so it is plausible he handed the reins to one more person he deeply trusted, and asked him to tie some knots but not to keep the show going.
