    The fraud continues - Craig Wright just purposely submitted a provably fake email into evidence in the Kleiman-Wright case

    Posted: 16 Apr 2019 11:45 AM PDT

    Craig Wright's fraud continues. Yesterday, he submitted into evidence an email he says was from Dave Kleiman to Uyen Nguyen asking her to be a director of his 'bitcoin company' in late 2012.

    It is provably fake.

    Craig didn't realize that the email's PGP signature includes a signing timestamp along with the ID of the key used as metadata. Was the email actually sent in 2012? Let's find out!

    The beginning of the signature is as follows: iQEcBAEBAgAGBQJTH+uQAAoJELiFsXrEW+0bCacH/3K

    Converted to hex, it's: 89 01 1c 04 01 01 02 00 06 05 02 53 1f eb 90 00 0a 09 10 b8 85 b1 7a c4 5b ed 1b 09 a7 07 ff 72

    We know how to find the long ID of the key used and the timestamp of the signature. I've bolded the ID and italicized the timestamp. Looking on the MIT keyserver, we can find the fake* key. The timestamp of the signature is 1394600848, which is March 12, 2014, two weeks before Craig filed to install Uyen as a director of Dave's old company, and almost a year after Dave died!

    We can double-check with gpg -vv. Transcribe the email and paste it in. Here's the output:

    :signature packet: algo 1, keyid B885B17AC45BED1B version 4, created 1394600848, md5len 0, sigclass 0x01 digest algo 2, begin of digest 09 a7 hashed subpkt 2 len 4 (sig created 2014-03-12) subpkt 16 len 8 (issuer key ID B885B17AC45BED1B) 

    (I'll note, as an aside, that Dave apparently spelled his name incorrectly and put a typo in the subject.)

    *The fake key has the same pref-hash-algos as Craig's fake keys, and were never updated.

    unpopular opinion: coin listings should be on practical criteria only. it should not be a popularity contest

    Posted: 16 Apr 2019 09:08 PM PDT

    Unpopular opinion: listing coins should be on technical factors only - practical criteria like trade volume, network security, code maintenance.

    While my opinion is that many alts/forks/ICOs starting with oneCoin, bitConnnect but many more are not "investable" (I wouldn't buy any of them) it is the case that people want to trade them and it is a free world. Listing should not be a popularity contest - the popularity of those promoting a coin is not a good factor: consider Bitcoin itself is unpopular to some parts of "the establishment" in various countries. Freedom of choice and resilience is important. High listing fees is also a negative, as punitive listing fees (in principle) constrains technology progress to people with money to pay, and encourages a pay to play model - bear in mind oneCoin and BitConnect had the resources to pay.

    The number of transactions of bitcoins, the rapid curling up to the “17 year-end level” of the virtual currency bubble

    Do you think Satoshi Nakamoto was inspired by the work of Friedrich A. von Hayek?

    Posted: 17 Apr 2019 12:59 AM PDT

    I'm specifically referring to his book called "Denationalisation of Money" in which he compellinging argues that private institutions would be better incentivised to run their own cross-border currencies (concurrent currencies). It was initially published in 1970.

    "How, then to acheive monetary stability? Milton Friedman, and recently many others, have urged a monetary rule, embedded where possible in a 'monetary constitution', so that the growth of money is steady and predictable. There can be no doubt that such rule would end the grosser failures of monetary management."

    I highly recommend a read, he also points out the oddity in the fact that we've never questioned government issued currency despite their continued failure (depreciation).

    "When one studies the history of money one cannot help wondering why people should have put up for so long with governments exercising an exclusive power over 2,000 years that was regularly used to exploit and defraud them. This can be explained only by the myth ( that government prerogative was necessary) becoming so firmly established that it did not occur even to the professional students of these matters ( for a long time including the present writer) ever to question it. But once the validity of the established doctrine is doubted its foundation is rapidly seen to be fragile."
