Disclaimer:
Because this post was made years after Satoshi’s acknowledged disappearance, its authenticity demands scrutiny. In one instance, Satoshi’s P2P Foundation account was compromised due to an email hack in September 2014, although there is currently no clear indication that the account was compromised at the prior time of this post.
