  • Why Are We Still Debating Whether Craig Wright Is Satoshi?

    From coindesk.com

    On Saturday, the Wall Street Journal ran a tantalizing headline: “Bitcoin Creator Satoshi Nakamoto Could Be Unmasked at Florida Trial.” Nakamoto, of course, is a pseudonym used by the person or people who laid out the basic principles of Bitcoin, helped develop it between roughly 2008 and 2011, then disappeared with secret identity intact. You would think the Journal’s report on possible new information about Satoshi’s real identity would be welcomed by the cryptocurrency world. You would be mistaken.

This article is thin and shallow, just like every other argument against Craig Wright. They spend more time scolding the WSJ and the media (ie aka media scolding media) than anything else.

Cardano founder and Ethereum co-founder Charles Hoskinson wrote in 2019 that he doesn’t believe Wright is Satoshi because he “lacks foundational knowledge, character, has a totally different communication style and Satoshi wasn’t down with the patents.”
Cardano founder? You mean the guy heading a billion dollar unregistered security?!?! Ethereum co-founder? You mean the guy who helped take 70% of ETH in the "ico"?

All these people against Craig Wright are clowns, scammers, and those easily fooled by clowns and scammers. I can't find one of them that has any credibility or understanding of economics.

Hoskins actually says that CW "lacks foundational knowledge". Craig is a polymath who spent his career mastering every subject involved in Bitcoin. There are dozens of extremely intelligent people who say that Craig has more knowledge about the Bitcoin system than anyone else. Hoskins, on the other hand, knows nothing about economics, and that's the primary fucking subject behind Bitcoin.
