Did Satoshi Nakamoto just re-surface!!?
Did the creator of Bitcoin come out of hiding to show the world that he is still around!?
Well there is some new evidence out there which points to Satoshi’s return!!
What is this evidence?
Well find out in about 10 minutes…because it’s time for Chico Crypto!!
Everyone who watches my channel knows I’ve always been on the hunt for Satoshi.
Since I started my channel I’ve been making videos which try to uncover the identity of
Satoshi.
But many people will say….Tyler, Satoshi is most likely dead….Satoshi was Hal Finney
and Finney is dead….
Those people are entitled to their opinion, just like I am…but the videos I have created
on Satoshi’s identity have drilled down to 2 main suspects: Elon Musk and Sergey Nazarov….
Which means….I personally think Satoshi is still alive and what happened over the
weekend, just reinforces my opinion….
But before we get into the new evidence we have to understand this has happened before.
Satoshi was suspected to be dead….yet he re-appeared to shock the world!
Back in 2014 Newsweek came out with a BIG article, in which they claimed to have unmasked
Satoshi Nakamoto….they claimed it was this man Dorian Nakamoto…
A media uproar took place, splitting those who believed Dorian was Satoshi and those
who didn’t….it even caused the poor old Dorian to cry to the public that he wasn’t
Satoshi…saying the Newsweek article hurt him and his family.
Well even though a majority of people believed Satoshi to be dead, Satoshi returned and took
to an account on a the p2p online forum to dispel the myth that Dorian Nakamoto was the
creator of Bitcoin…From his p2p forum account Satoshi posted “I am not Dorian Nakamoto”
confirming that Satoshi was indeed alive in Early 2014.
Satoshi returned to prove he was still out there
But many will now argue, well that was HAL…that post from the p2p account happened in early
2014…Hal didn’t die until Later that year….as we can see Hal unfortunately succumbed to
ALS August 28th of 2014.
Well this new evidence may just prove HAL isn’t Satoshi, and Satoshi is still walking
the streets of this world….
This comes from where it all began….the original online forum for discussing bitcoin
created by Satoshi Back in 2009 which is still up and running to this day.
A user who goes by Casinotester0001 posted an inquiry November 15th saying “ I want
to know if people from the early days of Bitcoin who mined are still here.
If you want, you can post here a signature for the text "bitcointalk" with your oldest
key so we can check who has/had the oldest mined Bitcoin.
Even when the coins were sent (empty address), you can post the signature for that address.”
A person who went by the name One Signature was the first to reply on November 26th and
they said “This is the oldest signature with a smiley face “(please post if you
have a signature with an older address) with a signed message…
This signed message confirms they are the owner of that Bitcoin address which at first
glance looks like nothing special…using blockchain for the address we can see it holds
not a single BTC…but if we scroll down to the transactions…this is when things get
VERY interesting.
As we can see they mined a block of Bitcoin for the 50 BTC reward, all the way back on
January 19th of 2009.
And we can verify this signature is legit using verify bitcoin message.com We just enter
the signature with the message and address and it verify’s it for us…
One signature created their BitcoinTalk account on November 26th, and there is no other forum
activity coming from that account.
So this had to have been made with the sole purpose of signing the message…
So if you understand the timeline of Bitcoin’s creation, you get why this transaction is
sooo interesting…
Satoshi officially launched Bitcoin on January 3rd 2009, and he didn’t tell a single soul
about this initial launch…all of the bitcoin’s were mined by Satoshi while he made sure the
launch was successful.
It wasn’t until January 12th of 2009 the first bitcoin transaction happened, this is
when Satoshi sent Hal Finney 10 BTC…
Just 1 week later this “person” mined this Bitcoin block…
This is an early-early-early adopter….with the chances of it being either Hal or Satoshi
extremely high, like I would almost guarantee it’s one of them…..
But Hal is dead… he couldn’t have posted that message and signed the address and this
Washington post article on how Hal described the first Bitcoin transaction gives us even
more confirmation that this transaction that was signed was likely from Satoshi…
The article states “After a few days, bitcoin was running pretty stably, so I left it running.
Those were the days when difficulty was 1, and you could find blocks with a CPU, not
even a GPU.
I mined several blocks over the next days.
But I turned it off because it made my computer run hot, and the fan noise bothered me.
In retrospect, I wish I had kept it up longer, but on the other hand I was extraordinarily
lucky to be there at the beginning.
It's one of those glass half full half empty things.
The next I heard of Bitcoin was late 2010…
Hal only ran his BTC miner for a few days before turning it off to not return to Bitcoin
until 2010….that would mean this mined block happened while Hal wasn’t mining.
Giving us even more reason to believe this message came from Satoshi!!
Finally there is this…if you dive into the username onesignature across social platforms,
nothing comes up….besides on one platform…Twitter.
As we can see this username is under a protected account…and it was suspiciously created
back in 2009, the year of Bitcoin’s release.
The account is following 28 people, but only has allowed 1 person to follow them, which
allows people to see their tweets…
Ths twitter account is bulletproof locked down so no prying eyes can see….I wonder
why???
Is it because this is Satoshi’s twitter???
Well viewers because of this signed message my theories of Satoshi being Elon or Sergay
still hold some serious weight….what do you think?
Who is Satoshi???
Let me know down in the comments….Or are we all Satoshi???
Cheers I’ll see you next time!
