We always wonder who the real master mind behind the name of Nakamoto Satoshi the creator of bitcoin is.But what exactly would make you believe or convince you that "this" person is Satoshi if he/she ever decided to reveal himself.
There might be infinite wannabes and glory hunters wanting to rise to fame ,given the real Satoshi is one among them how would you go on about finding the right person.

The only way Satoshi has to reveal his identity is through his technology itself. REMEMBER: NOT YOUR KEYS, NOT YOUR COINS. Satoshi along with other early adopters is said to have millions of bitcoins stashed on specific wallets. So, if he signs a transaction from one of his addresses he proves he really is Satoshi Nakamoto. One of the genesis block that is said to be his, is this one: 1A1zP1eP5QGefi2DMPTfTL5SLmv7DivfNa. You can read more about it here.

There are still flaws, I agree with the posts that proving ownership doesn't prove the identity. One good example is cited by BlackHatCoiner and supported by Wind_FURY posts. Besides, if you are the real satoshi, you don't have to prove you really are Satoshi the more effort you made to prove yourself the more harder it is for the hesitant to believe. Being oneself comes naturally and people will see the proof by themselves.

It also gives an impossible situation for people like Craig Wright, but a very good one for Bitcojn. Because indeed if he does possess the keys, his claims to be the "Real Satoshi Nakamoto" would not be recognized by the community, the Core Developers, and anyone who isn't a Flat-Earther of Bitcoin. This holds true even if he WAS actually Satoshi, the inventor of Bitcoin.
