@wilsonkime NYT is reporting that it's Adam Beck, which is a major news org. However, I honestly did not find it particularly definitive/convincing, so not sure if you count this as confirmation.

@Dssc well, it's an expose about a likely candidate. Certainly the author himself thinks it's true. I'm not sure I would say it's confirmed. Certainly Adam Back isn't confirming it. Are any other outlets confirming it? It still feels pretty circumstantial.

@wilsonkime That’s kinda what I thought as well. I assume more information against or for the conclusion of the article will come out as time passes? I don’t think any other major news orgs are talking about it yet, but we might see some soon?

@Dssc I found it pretty convincing. If you require the person to admitting to it and proving it, that's highly unlikely.

No Paul Le Roux?

@jade added

Isn't Adam Back also a candidate?

@MrugankModiya I hadn't heard that, at least lately, but sure I'll add him

Satoshi Nakamoto was a whale oil processor off the coast of shiniboomya province in the 1980's, who led a peaceful life feeding cats on a cat island, before he became a cypher punk.

How can I add an answer please

@VAPOR can you clarify what name you want me to add? Are you saying a candidate for the inventor of Bitcoin is literally someone named "Satoshi Nakamoto" who worked in the whaling industry? Do you have a link or anything

@wilsonkime I met him he told me himself, yes just that same name

@VAPOR I'm not sure how I'd have enough info to resolve the market to "that Satoshi Nakamoto that vapor knows"

@wilsonkime my word is as good any good as any ones except satoshi
