To be honest, I do not see the point of those people who claim that they are "satoshi" or anyone whatsoever. Aren't they just endangering and compromising their safety with such declaration? Are they just purely doing this for pride and for recognition around the world without even thinking the possible outcomes in the event that people do believe that you are satoshi?

Anyway, what you guys mentioned is the most easiest way of proving that you are indeed satoshi. If you can move the BTCs stored in his wallet address and personally sign a message, then you would be able to prove that you are indeed the almighty satoshi!

I think they're doing it mostly because of the fame and fortune. With a huge stash of Bitcoins from Satoshi's early Bitcoin addresses, anyone can try to impersonate him with the intent of gaining mainstream recognition. Even Craig Wright tried to make people believe he is Satoshi by "faking" his ownership of Satoshi's early Bitcoin keys. People should just move on and focus on what matters most. It's not about Satoshi but rather the community as a whole. As long as Bitcoin works as intended, nothing else matters.

So far, the project's been doing good without Satoshi thanks to its decentralized and open source design. Who knows what the future holds for Bitcoin and crypto in general? Just my thoughts Grin
