A forum account linked to Satoshi posted today for the first time in several years to say that his identity was not that of Dorian Nakamoto. Plenty of people countered that the account could have been hacked, controlled by a site admin, etc. and have asked for further proof in the form of movement of some of the true Satoshi's stash of bitcoin. This could be that proof (or something else entirely).



Or, consistently with the persona in the article, it’s actually Satoshi claiming not to be Satoshi.

(Mind you, as much as a bitcoin-hater as I am, I find doxxing him distasteful. And I’m not even a total anti-doxxer, I just don’t see any justification for exposing his persona).
