WTF, bitcoin?
The identity of bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto continues to be one big dramatic, confusing question mark.
On Monday, The BBC and The Eco**mist and GQ all reported that Australian businessman Craig Steven Wright*made a very credible claim to be Nakamoto (http://mashable.com/2016/05/02/satoshi-nakamoto-craig-wright/).
Backed by a blog post by Wright — and with the support (http://gavinandresen.ninja/satoshi) of Bitcoin Foundation chief scientist Gavin Andresen — it looked like we might finally k**w the identity of one of tech**logy’s most elusive figures.
Wright, you may recall, was previously pegged as Nakamoto in reports from Wired and Gizmodo*last year. Those reports were immediately scrutinized (http://mashable.com/2015/12/10/bitcoin-satoshi-nakamoto-craig-wright/), with Wired later reporting it felt Wright’s claim of creating bitcoin may have just been an elaborate hoax (https://www.wired.com/2015/12/new-clues-suggest-satoshi-suspect-craig-wright-may-be-a-hoaxer/) Read more...
