It's incredibly dangerous of these "journalists". Putting targets on people's back as well as possibly being slander.

Any bitcoin oldheads know it's not Peter Todd based on tons of behavioral, timestamped, and logistical evidence. The actual leading candidate is Len Sassaman if you look objectively at the evidence.

Am I misunderstanding something, or do you want to edit that?

That person is already dead, and already widely discussed (including here on HN a few days ago) as a candidate.

The person being dead just means their surviving family and heirs are the target instead. It's irresponsible to finger anyone as Satoshi.

Which logically makes little sense TBH in this case in particular, but yeah thugs might not be particularly reasonable.

It's definitely Hal Finney. The fact that Dorian Satoshi Nakamoto lived a few minutes away from him, and Hal was a marathon runner who could have easily seen his mailbox, and also that Satoshi disappeared when Hal's ALS became overwhelming, is all the evidence you need.

[nullc]

Please don't accuse Hal of being Satoshi, these accusations have resulted in his family being threatened and extorted.

[adastra22]

It is definitely not Hal Finney. Hal’s wife has been through enough.

it's not any of them
