If Craig had come out and said he was part of the Satoshi team but all the coins were lost with Hal/Dave then there would be so much less drama around when he gets the keys and if hes gonna dump BTC.

BSV could've just stood on its own technical merits with a member of the original team developing it.

>>16908394
so what, are you saying he should do that?

He and his opponents have created an amazing investment opportunity, where by buying bsv you basically get a huge potential upside and almost no downside, so i am only thankful for the situation

Even the true believers have to have a little worry in the back of their lizard brain that he won't come through with the keys. Why he would have a bonded courier with key slivers just to know which public keys/blocks he mined is strange. Now we wait another month for the private keys to show up?

It's hard to believe there arent some kind of alternator motives going on. The price will pump or dump just on the news about the keys.

Hes always had the keys for block 0-9

Tulip trust is a smokescreen

it's not really a worry, whereas he has or doesn't have the key will not make much of a difference in the long term.
If he doesn't have the keys, bsv will still win long term due to merit alone, in fact, that might be better than having bitcoin core crash too badly and bring trust in the whole crypto market down for a long time.

>Why he would have a bonded courier with key slivers just to know which public keys/blocks he mined is strange
You gotta realize that these are all legal shenanigans, that's what trusts are, if you have ever run companies or accumulated a decent amount of wealth this is common. If he does have the keys, he has had them the entire time, saying that they are in a trust and he doesn't have direct access to them just provides him with some benefits like:
- sheltering them from taxation
- sheltering them from legal action
- being able to pass it on to trustees (wife, kids) without paying inheritance taxes

Those are the reasons rich people put their wealth in trusts. In his case it also has an extra advantage that he becomes less of a target for hacking/ransom.
The bounded courier thing is again just a legal shenanigan just because bounded couriers are trusted by courts (they are basically the official timestamp system in the pre-bitcoin era). And he was only required to disclose a list of addresses, not keys, so he can play with that saying he only has the addresses for now (i'm not sure if this is what he said, but he only provided addresses because thats what was requested in discovery).

This is a good chance he doesn't have the private keys, he might have destroyed them, but it's okay.
As long he can prove the coins are his in court, he'll have access to them.

aka, IF the fat fraudulent cunt hadn't lied himself into a corner, what with having NO keys and all, could he now paint himself into a slightly more flattering light*, even without said keys?

craig didn't envision it to be like pgp,

You fucking bsv retards make me want to scream. Until he posts a signed message with Satoshi's keys he's exactly as credible as any random asshole on the street walking around telling people he's Satoshi.

this.
Just the other day I lost ownership of my tesla as an individual stole the keys out of my bag while I was ordering my onions frappucino. Unfortunately I was unable to verify the thief's pgp key so I could not put out an anonymous hit on him.
I returned home to tell my wife but to my dismay I only found a woman who although looked, acted and sounded exactly like my wife was unable to publicly sign the private key I had given her to verify our marriage, claiming it had been left in my tesla.
Obviously i moved out immediately as I could not trustlessly verify the identity of this woman claiming to be my wife.

Some time passed and one day I was lucky enough to come across my tesla. Chasing down the young man who had parked it I demanded his pgp key so that i could initiate a ransomware smart contract to blackmail him into returning the private keys of my car to me. To my great relief it turned out this young man was my wife as before I could send the gas to the smart contract he publicly signed a message with my wife's private key.
In the end we all laughed, I just have no idea how we ever trusted anyone before bitcoin.
