These articles by Gizmodo and Wired exposed his identity, citing circumstantial evidence and an interview with the alleged person behind the Satoshi Nakamoto pseudonym.

>According to a cache of documents provided to Gizmodo which were corroborated in interviews, Craig Steven Wright, an Australian businessman based in Sydney, and Dave Kleiman, an American computer forensics expert who died in 2013, were involved in the development of the digital currency.

Mere hours after they publish, the police raid his house. He appears to be long gone.

>More than 10 police personnel arrived at the house in the Sydney suburb of Gordon at about 1.30pm. Two police staff wearing white gloves could be seen from the street searching the cupboards and surfaces of the garage. At least three more were seen from the front door.

>Guardian Australia understands the raids are not related to the claims that Wright may have been involved in the creation of bitcoin, but are related to an Australian Tax Office investigation.

>One officer said they were “clearing the house”, Reuters reported.

The house was the only one on the street with a rubbish bin still outside, six days after the weekly Thursday collection, and the letterbox was full, indicating that the house may have been empty recently.

>The treatment of bitcoin for tax purposes in Australia has been the subject of considerable debate. The ATO ruled in December 2014 that cryptocurrency should be considered an asset for capital gains tax purposes.

Shit like this is why people will stop releasing new shit that could paint them negatively.

Anyhing you invent will be taken as a declaration of force against the gubmint.

Invent new energy sauce?

Hey! That man will use it up, he will *insert things that are wrong but sound plausibe for fearmongering* and we'll be dead! kill him!

Guy tries to make a better currency, get him jailed. Nice work.


 No.13925

He's just being physically separated.


 No.13929

I'm surprised it wasn't a US extraction request.


 No.13949

I just want to point out I was right at >>12140

When I said that authorities would persecute the creator of bitcoin if they could get away with it.


 No.13970

>>13910

I heard they had possibly found the guy, I hadn't heard that he had up and run though.

>>13949

I think they're just hoping to grab a shit load of his money in "back taxes" as they'll call it.
