Who the fuck is that?

I don't know who this is, but it's clearly a 14 year old
Craig Wright. Spent years claiming he was Satoshi, built a cult following of crazy reprobates, legally harassed multiple bitcoin personalities, got rekt in multiple courts, and fled to South Asia to avoid extradition back to the UK, preemptively so, before his apotheosis court loss resulted into a referral to Crown Prosecution Service.
Oh he scrubbed his name from his social media? New account?
He has 6k followers?? Lol he deserves less than that. Awful man
Has anyone invited faketoshi to nostr yet???
He can even build a fork for his shitcoin lol
He was required by court order to no longer use his public persona to propagate the notion that he was Satoshi Nakakoto, since the claims on which he litigated were found to have zero merit.
So he larps as Satoshi from an anon account.
...on which he literally posts selfies of himself kayaking and building a banana plantation or whatever fake shit he claims to be an expert at.
I'm actually kind of surprised that Sugar Daddy never put a hit out on him. either suggests he has reasonable scruples (lol) or he was in on it from the very beginning. I just felt like he was getting fooled.
The great thing about sociopaths as low as Calvin and Craig, is that they can only work together for so long, before one or both of them tries to fuck the other one over. My guess is that they are deadlocked in a situation where they can blackmail each other good and hard, and either of their deaths would mark the survivor as prime suspect.
This is very reasonable analysis.
By the way... I had a fat lightning channel open to your node from some time... I had some meh issues with my node and have replaced it... Expect a slightly fatter channel coming in soon from a random node.
I have been more attentive to the care and feeding of the node. It has gotten a lot of great routing traffic lately. You probably wouldnt suffer from reopening that channel!
My take is that Calvin was building a pig-in-a-poke scam out of nCrypt/nChain from the start. Craig was brought in for his Satoshi larp to lend credibility to all the worthless patents they were stuffing the company with. LRB's Satoshi Affair article lays it out that the plan was to sell nChain to some greater fool who wouldn't do their due diligence.
