POPULARITY
Dr. Craig S Wright is an Australian/Antiguan computer scientist, businessman, and inventor, who challenges the world with visionary ideas. Dr. Wright asserts he is the creator of Bitcoin and author of the Bitcoin white paper under the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto. He is one of the earliest minds behind what we now know as blockchain technology and established nChain to unleash the technology and its intended purpose—now preserved in the form of the Bitcoin SV Node reference implementation and Bitcoin SV. In this episode, Robert and Craig cover numerous interesting topics, including Greek philosophy and Japanese history, discussing if the modern world could be repeating some of the mistakes from the past. They also talk about Craig's life journey and some of the things he has gone through to get to where he is today, including one surprising career choice. Craig also tells us the story of what inspired him to come up with the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto and how his knowledge of computer science, law, statistics, and economics gave him the tools to create Bitcoin. Craig recently returned to Twitter and regularly engages with his followers on various topics, including, as you'd expect, blockchain, CBDCs, and the politics surrounding it. Craig has a low tolerance for trolls and time wasters and doesn't hesitate to block them. Despite Craig's formidable public reputation, this interview exposes a softer underbelly showing Craig to be highly personable under the right circumstances with his broad range of knowledge, making for a fascinating conversation.

This week Kurt Wuckert Jr. is joined by Stefan Matthews the CEO and Executive Chairman of TAAL, Executive Chairman of nChain, and Executive Board Member of the Bitcoin Association. Stefan reveals exclusive details of the origins of Bitcoin. His dealings with Dr. Craig S. Wright as Satoshi Nakamoto and the proof sessions with Gavin Andresen.
This week on the CoinGeek Weekly Livestream - Kurt is joined by Kevin Healy, who went viral on YouTube last week for his video on why he is moving to the BSV Blockchain from Ethereum and why he believes Dr. Craig S. Wright is Satoshi Nakamoto.
It’s almost exactly ten years since Satoshi Nakamoto made his last regular appearance online – on April 23 2011. After that, there was only one more message, of just five words, a few years later. To commemorate the occasion, on this week’s CoinGeek Conversations, Charles Miller is joined by the man behind the pseudonym, Dr. Craig S. Wright.Between managing a full-time job at the Sydney accountancy firm BDO, finishing multiple degrees and traveling from the city to his farm, Craig found the time to write emails and post as Satoshi Nakamoto on the Cryptography Mailing List where he linked to the Bitcoin White Paper – allowing the mailing list members to be first to see it.Craig had doubts about Bitcoin even after its release, he admits: “I was rather uncertain whether it would work or not, to tell you the truth, I was not confident at all.” The first and noteworthy reaction to the White Paper came from mailing list contributor James A. Donald who said that the problem with the idea was that Bitcoin would never be able to scale – a point that Craig has been busy refuting ever since.In trying to work out who was behind the Satoshi identity - all the more mysterious after he ‘disappeared’ in 2011 - several discussions focused on the way Satoshi writes. Charles points out that ‘Craig as Satoshi’ tends to write calmly. In contrast, he quotes Craig in a 2010 post writing as himself, in which he sounds decidedly agitated. Craig explains that he has many different writing styles appropriate for different contexts. The “Satoshi anoraks,” as Charles calls the amateur online investigators, have made all sorts of analyses - from the use of double spacing to the times of day or night that Satoshi posted.One observation was about Mike Hearn’s holiday greeting to Satoshi in which he said: “Happy Christmas Satoshi, assuming you celebrate it.” Satoshi didn’t respond to Hearn’s greeting. Charles asked whether that was deliberate or just an omission: “I don't hide that I'm Christian anymore, but I used to,” Craig said. “I found that it was rather problematic because of the attitudes of people in Silicon Valley in particular.”A conversation with Craig wouldn’t be complete without a mention of books, in this case, audio books. The two exchanged some laughs as Craig describes how his wife would have to put up with the sound of his audio books being played at high speed as they were in bed at night. “I live on audiobooks - the wife says it sounds like a bunch of chipmunks.”Join Charles Miller on this episode of CoinGeek Conversations to learn more about ‘the rise and fall of Satoshi Nakamoto’.

Well it’s been a rough week. Just when many of us thought Bitcoin and the crypto market couldn’t go any lower, we’re hit with even more capitulation. Add to that, the drama in the Bitcoin Cash camp, and we have a great setup for global FUD.Bitcoin Cash DebacleLet’s jump right into it. Bitcoin Cash is a mess. Their semi-annual hard fork was set to release, but this time somethings different. There’s disagreement. Notorious, self-proclaimed “real” Satoshi Nakamoto, Craig S. Wright, disagrees with the path that Bitcoin Cash is taking. Craig doesn’t agree with the addition of smart contracts onto the Bitcoin Cash blockchain, so he is prepared to fight it. He announced that he would make the hard fork contentious and release Bitcoin Cash SV (Satoshi’s Vision). Bitcoin Cash ABC vs. Bitcoin Cash SVThis disagreement was ultimately to be decided by the community or miners. However, both camps have ace’s up their sleeves by bringing along with them huge mining farm CEOs. Both sides have voices in Craig Wright and Roger Ver, respectively. Craig Wright wrote a public email to Roger Ver that was filled with profanity, name calling, and threats. Definitely not something the crypto community needs at a time where confidence is already low. Hash WarsSo far, Bitcoin Cash ABC, which you could call the “original” Bitcoin Cash has the longest chain and is posed to be the winner in this battle. But, coming from nothing and posting insane price increase, Bitcoin Cash SV has won in their own right. Though, they may not last very long. Like most things in the crypto space, time will tell how this will affect the market long term.Capitulation?Maybe it’s because of the Bitcoin Cash debacle; maybe it’s capitulation. One thing is for sure; the market is in a free fall yet again. Bitcoin has seen another 15% drop this past few days and alts have gone down even more. This is the time where many of the altcoins that never had a true future will fall of the map. So, what’s driving down the price? Well, it’s a combination of many factors. Bakkt Bitcoin futures are being postponed to January 2019, there is uncertainty about regulation, volumes are low, and then you add an embarrassing fight within the number 4 cryptocurrency camp. These and many other reasons make it hard to trust the market at this time. Quitters!It’s always sad seeing investors lose money, but as with any investment; there is always risk. Many people invested more than they could stand to lose when Bitcoin was at all time highs. Now that the price has dropped over 70%, those people have lost too much, and are selling (and accepting HUGE losses). The market continues to shake off investors that are not ready to handle the volitility and stabilize at a price that everyone agrees on for the time. Short term value matters less to us at Decentralized Talk than the long term implications it will have.Thank you!Thank you to all of our listeners for tuning in this week and those of you that never miss a show.

Just days away from the BCH fork we talk with Dr. Craig S Wright about his thoughts on the fork and what he plans to do to maintain control. Craig also shares his thoughts on Bitcoin core, Lightning Networks and the origins of Bitcoin. Daniel Krawisz co-founder of Nakamoto Institute also sit's in for commentary and his take on the POSM algorithm coined by Dr. Wright.

Another week, another Flagship! This week, the CryptoBasic Avengers have assembled to talk shit about big tech. The roasting session begins with Telegram and ends with Libra, given the fact that all bullshit leads to the Big Zucc. Additionally, Epic Games is starting to get its feet wet with crypto and eToro is making... interesting strides in the world of bot trading. All of the above and more on today's episode, so tune in! Dive into the cryptoverse with us on this week's Flagship Friday. Rapid Fire Crypto Question Added to 1040 Form for 2019. $550M Worth of ETH is locked up in various DeFi Solutions at the moment Satoshi is officially a word in the Oxford Dictionary Oxford added 650 words to the their English dictionary and one of them was Satoshi. "The smallest monetary unit in the Bitcoin digital payment system, equal to one hundred millionth of a bitcoin. Bitcoin was added in 2013. Other words added were whatevs and chillax lol Bitcoin Mining Revenue Jumps By $1bil in 2 months Took 8 years to reach $5 billion revenue, One year after that it reached $10 billion in August 2018 And now it's about to eclipse $15bill in early 2020. Booking.com Latest Firm To Drop Out Of Libra Booking.com left on Monday of this week and now 21 of it's original 28 backers are still there. Seven backers have all left within the past week. Happened on the same day FB was in Geneva with all the other companies formally signing on. Telegram In Hot Water With The SEC SEC has formally instructed Telegram Group to halt the sales of cryptocurrency Gram "filed an emergency action and obtained temporary restraining order against two offshore entities" Why? - "conducting an alleged unregistered, ongoing digital token offering in the U.S. and overseas" Remember they raised $1.7 billion So by failing to register the sale of tokens back in Jan 2018, which are considered securities, they are in violation of the Securities Act of 1933 “Our emergency action today is intended to prevent Telegram from flooding the US markets with digital tokens that we allege were unlawfully sold,” failed to provide investors with info regarding business operations, financial condition, risk factors, & management And remember this quote from a NYT article we covered a few weeks ago on the show "Telegram promised in legal documents that it would deliver Grams to investors by Oct. 31, 2019, or give back the money." Making matters worse, violation of Securities Act may mean Telegram has to forfeit the $1.7b it raised “We have repeatedly stated that issuers cannot avoid the federal securities laws just by labeling their product a cryptocurrency or a digital token,” So what are they going to do? Telegram Looks to Cut Deal With TON Blockchain Investors After SEC Order They notified investors that the TON project will launch later, to April 30 2020 From an email to investors "We disagree with the SEC’s legal position and intend to vigorously defend the lawsuit. We are proposing to extend the deadline date in order to provide additional time to resolve the SEC’s lawsuit and work with other governmental authorities in advance of the launch of the TON network.” The investors (token holders) have to agree to delay, and there are two groups (2 rounds of investing) 2nd round investors have till Oct 23 to sign & approve, If investors choose not to sign they can get back approximately 77% of their money. 1st round investors got different communication Court hearing scheduled for Oct 24 Libra Time! Like we said last week, I guess Libra gets its own section. Booking.com has dropped out of the Libra foundation. Mercado Pago drops out of the Libra foundation Ebay has dropped out of the Facebook Libra foundation. Stripe has dropped out of Facebook Libra foundation. Visa has dropped out of Facebook Libra foundation Mastercard has dropped out of Libra Foundation Warren Davidson - US Senator (R)-Ohio: Facebook should drop the Libra project and Adopt Bitcoin. NANO has released a plugin for Unreal Engine . Tons of game son this engine - Assassin's Creed, Batman games, Borderlands, literally hundreds of games. I checked out the Demo, it was super cool. The game had a real time wallet transaction list. You paid to join the game in Nano, and then every monster you killed earned you nano in real time, transferred to your wallet as soon as you killed the monster. Then you could spend nano to buy items in the game. Imagine a Fortnite or other battle royale game where you spent a little money to join, and first place got it all. A reddit user pointed out 0 spending $500 and give them their allowance there. CFTC Chairman gives opinion on Ether CFTC Chairman Heath Tarbert has said ether is a commodity Speaking to Yahoo Finance he made the following statement “We’ve been very clear on bitcoin: bitcoin is a commodity. We haven’t said anything about ether – until now, It is my view as chairman of the CFTC that ether is a commodity.” Concerning currencies created by hard forks “It stands to reason that similar assets should be treated similarly. If the underlying asset, the original digital asset, hasn’t been determined to be a security and is therefore a commodity, most likely the forked asset will be the same. Unless the fork itself raises some securities law issues under that classic Howey Test.” eToro Launches a Crypto Trading Bot that is 100% Based on Twitter sentiment. I hate that this thing might work. It uses an AI to scrap Twitter for sentiment on crypto assets and allocates the portfolio accordingly. Requires a $2k min investment. It's in partnership with the TIE Data Analysis firm. Current Allocations DONT OPEN 47% DASH 25% EOS 21% XRP 5% IOTA 2% ETC I was a little bit disingenuous - There are only 13 monitored assets. BTC, ETH, XRP, IOTA, BCH, NEO, ETC, DASH, EOS, XLM, LTC, ZEC, ADA They've also said they're eliminating 90% of all posts because they believe they come from bots. HOLY SHIT. They also have to program the AI to figure out if EOS referrs to, say, the EOS blockchain or the EOS camera. They said they know there's a ton of XRP shills out there, for instance, pushing an XRP tweetstorm every day, but they compare it to the previous day to make any decisions on allocation THAT'S A SCAM S Korea/US bust giant child porn site by following bitcoin trail (Maybe it's not a scam but thought it should go here) SK man arrested, 337 others charged in global sweep rescued 23 victims since march 2018 Jong Woo Son, 23, operated a Darknet market that accepted Bitcoin and distributed more than 1mill sexually explicit videos involving children. Serving 18 months in prison in SK. Seems low. “Our agency’s ability to analyze the blockchain and de-anonymize Bitcoin transactions allowed for the identification of hundreds of predators around the world,” Fort said. “The scale of this crime is eye-popping and sickening.” IRS Criminal Investigation Division also claimed credit. Don Fort, chief of the division Shots Fired! Tone Vays was on a Panel with CSW and he showed up wearing a shirt that said "We are all Satoshi Nakamoto - Except Craig S. Wright". The panel was actually amazing they all hated each other. Watch it here.
