I'm actually shocked how extremely crude this is.

See Mr. Fake in action:

Is this a new level of fraudster?

noone really fell for this shit in the first place. why would satoshi reveal himself, and like that, after playing it cool for so long?

what i never got about this dude, is how he thought he was going to get away with this. clearly, if you cant move satoshis coins, you arent satoshi. so if he knew he couldnt access the wallets, why even open his mouth in the first place? account access wasnt going to be enough, the burden of proof would have been something the real satoshi would have provided for, knowing the nature of his creation (psuedoanonomous). satoshi has no incentive to reveal himself, practically. so we wont see him. maybe his kid might say something down the line, but im doubting every person that makes this claim. it simply doesnt make sense to do so.

i also dont get why this guy, who was respected before all that, would throw away his reputation behind this.

greed/seeking fame makes people do some silly shit.
