I usually try not to be the kind of rationalist who is like “my superior powers of deduction have determined after five minutes of study that all world experts are wrong about this issue”.
But my superior powers of deduction have determined after five minutes of study that all the media sources and Bitcoin experts reporting that Craig Wright is Satoshi Nakamoto are wrong, and I’m willing to put like 90% probability on that.
Isn’t this the exact same guy who was almost-proven to be a fraud like in December or something? The one who wanted to make up some money to evade tax authorities, who used algorithms not invented in 2009 for something supposedly from 2009 etc.?

nightpool said: wait “all the bitcoin experts”? my twitter feed (which is mostly notable software security names) is just 100% people making fun of Craig Wright today.
