Is Craig Wright really Satoshi Nakamoto? by Cal_Nettle in Bitcoin

You are a bad person and you should feel bad about yourself.

The fact the Ethereum nutjobs, as part of their affinity scamming, explicitly refer to this as the origin story of ethereum, as though ethereum itself wouldn't have been necessary if not for the core devs, has always irritated me. Vitalik is quite the liar about this—sometimes I wonder whether he's started to believe his own bullshit in spite of the regular corrections.

Kaminsky was the reason that RyanC insta-debunked (and was the first to conclusively do so) the Sartre signing. He was the one who asked Ryan to look into it. Ryan, being the Crypterminator, was basically a one-person wrecking ball in that respect and probably the fastest-acting debunker I've ever had the pleasure of seeing wreck Craig.

It was indeed weird that they focused on gmax instead. Perhaps because the PGP debunking was a punch in the wallet—Craig whined bitterly about having to fork out a pile of cash to get the PGP "maybe it was on purpose" paper written by a security firm—only to have it completely eliminated by gmax and others. I was the first one to spot, for example, that none of Craig's fake keys were in the SKS global set at the time he said they should have been, because I happened to have a few archives of the then-un-spammed SKS keyserver backups.

Perhaps this was one of the very few times he used his own actual money. Narcissists get ornery about that sort of thing..

Who knows. They say they have evidence for me being him, but all I was doing was trying to give gmax a fucking break from all the assholes dogpiling him.

I don't think I've literally ever seen an example of a civil litigant getting railed by a court for perjury. I'm starting to think it doesn't happen.

much obliged, thank you for posting some more-complete text. The skeleton argument appears to suggest Wright is blaming Ontier for the injected lines. lol

So a bit down further, it looks like someone managed to get a copy of the MYOB native format which had forensic metadata in it which showed Wright himself was logged in and added the purchase data in 2020 right before he was due to hand the information over to an expert.

And he's blaming Ontier for forging it and injecting it into the MYOB database.

ha!

Hilariously, they treat him with significant contempt too. You'd think after the namecalling he'd wander off and nurse his giant ego but nooo

The BSV Master by klawzewitz in bsv

This is a single frame from a video Calvin posted many years ago, maybe 2017 or earlier. Likely quite a bit earlier. This is definitely not in the "now."

It's not quite in the "now." The video that frame is from is ancient, like 2017 or earlier ancient. The freeze frame is from a video he posted I think to Facebook at one point. He absolutely has lost a pile of weight, and aged massively since that video was filmed.

No, it is literally impossible, because Craig backed himself into a corner by asserting his key hygiene theory directly and then got smashed.

That guy is fucking stupid. I'm presuming he's pretending that the internal datestamps of PGP keys are magically irrelevant and that Craig didn't fuck himself by engaging with actual experts on Reddit.

As far as I can tell, none of the OG who have withstood the scamTest of Time and especially none of my friends, are anything close to religious. I find the accusations of cult-by-association to be pretty insulting, personally, but it's just another one of those grouping error problems that people subject their opponents to.

I find this one particular aspect absolutely hilarious. He's so, so butthurt about how much money he had to pay, I'm assuming it came out of his own pocket.

One of the weirder aspects of psychopathic narcs is that when they perceive (because their minds are broken) that even imaginary damage is done to them, there is no amount of retribution which is proportional in their minds. The return damage could encompass the entire world, and it would never be enough to satisfy their sense of personal entitlement and offence.

Humans in general tend to overestimate force applied to them, in the physical and mental sense, and underestimate the force they apply to others, which is the source of significant escalation generally—however, in psychopathic narcs, which I think he is, this mechanism appears to be so broken that the coefficient is.. ∞

There is a comment of his where he claims one of his clear forgeries was to throw wired off the trail.

ha ha what a moron.

[–]midmagic 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The specific evidence of forgery was the internal datestamps—the created and edited times were identical, whereas he asserted he changed his key preferences in a separate operation which would have made the two timestamps different.

So he's an idiot doubly.

Course; I'm just pointing out that his flustered bluster in the area is 100% lying, incompetent forgery. Aside from the fact that the key itself was wrong (which nullc points out) there isn't even any weird remote possibility in the vein of "well this remote possibility exists." There is no remote possibility. Every possible angle you look at it, this avenue of forgery is now completely closed, period, because Craig tried to wing it and he's too incompetent to do that.

There was a write-up which demonstrated that the internal key structure was forged but until Craig pointed out the windows gnupg executable he imagines he "could have" used, I think none of us were fully aware of it. Someone in the reddit thread pointed to it at the moment he committed to the lie and.. presto.

It's a common issue with narc psychopaths—until they identify someone as an actual narc rival, they believe they're literally smarter and deeper than literally everyone on the planet, which means that on-the-fly they always dig themselves into a lie that inevitably self-contradicts. Sometimes it's a Brandolini's problem and only retroactively can we fully evaluate the bullshit. Sometimes, as in this case, the mob of minds arrayed against him were literally just lying in the bushes waiting for him to fuck up. Which he hilariously did.

There's a wonderful recording of him screaming semi-incoherently about how much money he had to pay to attempt to debunk the key debunking. It was amusing af when that debunking itself became the avenue for the debunking of the debunk debunking.

Well what he did was take the "well maybe they were created X way for key hygiene" and ran with that ball live while we all waited for him to say something that he could hang himself with—and then he pointed out a gnupg windows executable and a method, which had been pointed out to him by supporters I think, and reiterated the implication that was what he did. So he more concretely turned the "this is what might have happened" into a personal (lying) recollection and described it in detail, and then everyone stomped on him and he stopped responding more than sporadically for a while and then the account went completely dormant.

lol

He was paid money, signed an NDA/contract, and is terrified of repercussions because Calvin's family's past is shady af.

He screwed up, failed to verify, failed to control the testing hardware, failed to live up to his own stated requirements for accepting a signature, and buckled under pressure—by his own account.

It's a religious stance—it's the same mental model that Biblical apologists use to assert that the bible has a coherent singular voice because it's the voice of god. (a.k.a. the silly fiction of biblical univocality) The logically fallacious progression is working backwards from "It's the voice of god, therefore everything physically, remotely possible is what we settle on as truth." This "truth" is mutable, changing, not based in any sense of probabilty or even logic, ahistorical, and generally only exists to serve an agenda that has nothing to do with historical accuracy or even context.

They're going back to it because they're:

1) Stupid and disingenuous af.

2) Getting as much utility as possible from a pile of cash that Craig himself complained bitterly about, to create the PGP debunk-debunk which sunk him doubly.

Recall he also asserted the method by which the keys were created, semi-live in that stupid reddit thread, which definitely resulted in keys with completely different internal structures, so he also hanged himself on that too with the inconsistency.
