Those of you that are saying Mr. Craig Wright is not Satoshi are just making up nonsense, and so are those of you that are saying that he is Satoshi.

The fact is that none of you can know for sure.  No matter which "side" you're on, you've just decided what you want to be true and then started accusing those that don't agree with you of being wrong.

I've seen exactly zero irrefutable proof that Wright is Satoshi.

At the moment, all we have to go on is our personal opinions about the likelihood that Gavin Andreesen could be fooled or would participate in a conspiracy.  That's it.

That being said...

Many have disagreed with Gavin over many decisions, but I've never seen any indication that he's "dumb", "unintelligent", or "lacks intellectual curiosity".  I'd certainly expect him to be careful about verifying a signature as well as being careful about what was being signed.  I doubt a scammer would be able to convince Gavin that an invalid signature was valid, especially when it comes to deciding if that person was Satoshi or not.

This leaves me with five possibilities:
  • Gavin has lost his ability to think properly
  • Gavin is part of a conspiracy
  • Craig Wright is a better scammer than I can comprehend
  • Craig Wright got a hold of some of Satoshi's private keys somehow
  • Craig Wright is Satoshi

I cannot say which of those is true, and neither can any of you.  What a bunch of gullible, opinionated, nonsense spreading, emotional, whiners you all are.

I'm not sure when this forum became over-run by people that can't seem to think logically, but I'm thinking that this forum has probably lost it's worth. I'm not even sure why I bother checking this forum anymore. Probably just habit.
