Thanks for clearing that up.

As soon as I have time, I'll take a look.

Is Satoshi Nakamoto alive?

> the YouTuber said Satoshi was alive because he signed a message with the private key sent to the court in the Craig Wright case

I think that was one of Craig Wright's lies that got propagated because it was sensational. [CW convinced Gavin Andreeson](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NylO5W4qQCM), [Roger Ver](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rFU1o-0oU7A) (and others) that he was Satoshi because he was clever with computers and an effective con man. The courts proved that [Craig Wright was full of shit](https://www.bailii.org/ew/cases/EWHC/QB/2022/2068.html).

There was another misinformation that got spread in 2024 that [Satoshi moved coins](https://www.coindesk.com/markets/2024/09/20/satoshi-era-wallets-move-16m-in-bitcoin-after-15-years-of-dormancy). This story got shot down on Twitter. "[Not satoshi](https://x.com/Pledditor/status/1837022661282529766)"

I find the topic of Satoshi Nakamoto's identity hunt fascinating. The other day I saw a video from a guy who claims to have irrefutable evidence on who Satoshi is. I gave up on the [video](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IAoD0hIhE-Y) halfway through, but maybe you'll find it entertaining.
