Don't worry, though. He is confident he will receive the keys at an unspecified "later date", but won't disclose when, by what method, in what form, or by who. All he will say is that the keys might come "split into parts", conveniently setting the groundwork for his next lie as to why he still cannot sign a message.
I wonder if he is trying to
crack satoshi's keys... I mean he definitely has got the resources to pull off an operation on this scale and he is maybe trying to get lucky... If he even succeeds to crack one most people will actually become convinced that he is satoshi. He already is getting things patented so it will serve him up in the long run. A
perfect scam? Thoughts?
Did you ask him to sign a message from one of the Satoshi wallets?
I think the demand should be all of Satoshi's addresses, not just one. Given the scenario above we can make it harder for people to steal satoshi's identity...
There have already been many folks in the bitcoin community, to the extent such a thing exists, who have already suggested that if Craig were able to move some of the coins or sign some of the addresses from those likely satoshi blocks, that would ONLY become a starting point that would help his claim towards being satoshi, not serve as conclusive evidence of such claim.
Sure, if on day one, when that diptwat CSW had asserted that he was satoshi maybe more benefit of the doubt could have been given to various pieces of evidence and less proof - however, with the passage of time, CSW has employed scheme after scheme of deception and inferior (and even fraudulent) means of making his claims at being satoshi...
Remember that bullshit shenanigans that he attempted to pull right after he had supposedly privately signed some addresses with Gavin, and then CSW made a more public attempt at showing some signing that had been based on publicly accessible information that he had doctored. When CSW was called out in detail on that obvious fraudulent doctoring of information, he asserted that he was going to go back into hiding and never to be seen again.
Sure, CSW disappeared from the scene for a few months, but then we soon thereafter got the joy to experience that pathological attention-seeking diptwat again, who showed that he could not even keep his promise to go away for more than a few months. In essence, reasonable inferences could be made that CSW had been spending his time of "going away" as a means to planning and plotting his next scheme attempts rather than really making any efforts at getting out of the limelight. The attention seeking whore loves the limelight.. so I feel a little bad about even talking or thinking about him.
It has been pointed out so frequently that the attention-seeking whore behavior of CSW and his various attempts to privatize, commercialize and even seeking self profits with bitcoin is so damned inconsistent with the whole presentation of satoshi, that there is almost NO possibility that narcissist CSW is satoshi - unless he had suffered from some kind of brain injury that had suddenly changed his personality (not wanting to provide any playbook for his next fraud claim attempt).
