Couldn't that be Dorian himself who wrote that? It's not impossible at all if you think about it.

You did read the official denial? The one we know is from Dorian. His English and punctuation is perfect. I fail to see how any argument that claims Dorian can't write English holds water. Maybe he wrote a terribly written comment some

He has been living in US for more than 50 years; longer than I've been alive. He is also a Libertarian, a political position extremely rare in Japan. He appears to be totally Americanized with little trace of his former culture. His be

I've pointed out elsewhere that Dorian is making very dubious claims: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=7420870 If he had simply made a simple denial he would be more believable. There is no need for blatant decepti

What's the point in bringing that up if it does not at all impinge on one's ability to access the internet? Plus the whole financial distress argument doesn't at all sound plausible either, seeing he still has a house and app

As I pointed out elsewhere, claiming that he has no internet is rather inconsistent with the fact that he and apparently his brother Arthur clearly had access to the internet quite recently. This is another act of deception from him, and to

Have you asked whether your father has even heard of bitcoin? I suspect a fair chance that he has. This is not adding the fact it would only take for someone in Dorian's family to merely google his name to learn of bitcoin. The probl

I still think Dorian is very likely the Satoshi Nakamoto we're looking for. My basis for this is the fact that Dorian is very desperately trying to hide something, and it is evident in his denials, which contain claims that are very ha

A little bit of caution from here: http://profmattstrassler.com/2014/03/17/bicep2-new-evidence-... Very interesting result, potentially game-changing, but it also could be nothing too. Wait for more experimen

This is the amazing part! The denial from Dorian contains an obvious lie in it and represents an enormous hole in his argument. I think this is extremely suspicious and makes me think that this guy really is the creator of bitcoin. But for

Libel laws in this country practically means he has no legal recourse. He would need to prove that Newsweek made the whole thing up, not merely that they misunderstood him.
