He is Australian, at least, that’s what it seems to be.
Craig Steven Wright, an Australian computer scientist, entrepreneur and an expert in cyber security claimed that he is Satoshi Nakamoto, the creator of Bitcoin, the crypto-currency.
In a blog-post today, he gave some proof for the first time that he is the mastermind behind the currency, which is available here – http://www.drcraigwright.net/jean-paul-sartre-signing-significance/ . In that piece he explained the process of verifying cryptographic keys.
First time, back in December, Mr. Wright came into the spot light, in connection with Bitcoin, when Weird and Gizmodo, ran stories that he indeed is Satoshi Nakamoto. Australian police raided his home, but by that time he and his family had left for London.
Jon Matonis, founding director of Bitcoin foundation, today wrote in blog that he has been in contact with Mr. Wright since last summer and with private proof sessions, he is confident that Mr. Wright is indeed Nakamoto.
If this proves to be true, it will not only end years of speculations but as Mr. Wright promises in his blog, more excitements like Bitcoin, may be on the way.
