I have been following the recent block size debates through the mailing list. .....
Satoshi Nakamoto

I had not seen that letter until now, but it looks like a lot of vague bla-bla without even a hint of a technical argument.
I'll eat my hat if that was written by any of the very skilled mathematician/cryptographer(s) that designed bitcoin.

What did you expect to read? Maths and crypto, for things related to social engineering, populist methods, consensus and forks?

No, but something a little more intelligent would have been nice.

Do you still cling to the belief that this was written by satoshi in an attempt to ride in like a knight in shining armour to save you? Really?

The funniest thing about that ruse was gmax's earnest reply to it....

There was a spoofed message sent to the linuxfoundation mailing list that looked like it was sent by Satoshi through vistomail.com saying that Satoshi was not Craig Wright.

Theymos proved it was spoofed by checking where it really came from. I don't know how theymos did it, but couldn't he also check whether the Satoshi mail we are discussing is spoofed?

Update: It was not Satoshi.

This is spoofed.

Code:

Received: from mail.vistomail.com (cpe-104-231-205-87.wi.res.rr.com
   [104.231.205.87])
   by smtp1.linuxfoundation.org (Postfix) with SMTP id 01BCADF

104.231.205.87 is not mail.vistomail.com. It's some residential IP, cpe-104-231-205-87.wi.res.rr.com.

I feel like the mailing list must be seriously misconfigured to allow this sort of spoofing... You could exploit this to send mail "from" any of the devs, for example.

I just saw this in the bitcoin Dev mailing list

I am not Craig Wright. We are all Satoshi.

I have no idea if this is legitimate, but it was sent (supposedly) by satoshi@vistomail.com, which is the first email address that he used to post about bitcoin.
