So the money quote is &quot;My name is Dr. Craig Wright and under the pseudonym of Satoshi Nakamoto I completed a project I started in 1997 that was filed with the Australian government in part under an AusIndustry project registered with the Dept. of Innovation as BlackNet.&quot;<p>Googling BlackNet leads me to a post, apparently also by Wright, which describes BlackNet as &quot;a system which appeared in 1993 and which allows fully-anonymous, two-way exchanges of information of all sorts&quot; and attributes it to Tim May:<p><a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;ohmysatoshi.com&#x2F;blacknet" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;ohmysatoshi.com&#x2F;blacknet</a><p>So it&#x27;s not Bitcoin, and Wright&#x27;s statement only says that he &quot;completed&quot; (not design, start or build all of) it using the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto, which may well have been used by many people, in classic &quot;I am John Galt&quot; fashion:<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.wiley.com&#x2F;en-us&#x2F;I+Am+John+Galt%3A+Today%27s+Heroic+Innovators+Building+the+World+and+the+Villainous+Parasites+Destroying+It-p-9781118907535" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.wiley.com&#x2F;en-us&#x2F;I+Am+John+Galt%3A+Today%27s+Hero...</a>

Unless someone can prove they have the private key to the genesis block, then we should doubt their claim to be Satoshi.
