RE: The monopoly on violence as a consensus mechanism, and proof-of-work and similar
why would you want another person to obey you and give up pseudo-anonymity to "prove" things to you? as in, why do you want to express that behaviour?
obey? i stated a request. as for wright, he's the one who, out of nowhere, claims to be satoshi during a conference. so it is he who gave up anonymity. anyone making that claim would be subject to scrutiny.
what i am saying is: he made a tall claim and was unable to back it up. that's by definition an impostor. i'm pointing that out because usually your writing is based on proven fact.
don't get me wrong, i enjoy reading your work and find it interesting. there's not much of that going round. i think i upvoted it on occasion. would i not care, i'd not have said anything.
No, Gizmodo made that claim, in 2015
be that as it may, my point is we do not know the extent of his involvement, much less if he's the inventor the nakamoto consensus.
granted, gizmodo made that claim in 2015. but so did he in 2016. why not deny it like everyone else did?

call this what you will, it may have led to the gizmodo investigation.
he is the only person who has tried to produce evidence towards such claim.
he is Satoshi Nakamoto just follow his online content, easy to read. he was also superseded by the next generation, Gavin Wood and Vitalik Buterin, and they are being as well facing "technological obsolescence", very competitive space :)
