This is the article in question, co-authored by Gwern and published on Wired in August 2015:<p>&quot;Bitcoin&#x27;s creator Satoshi Nakamoto is probably this unknown Australian genius&quot;<p><a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.wired.com&#x2F;2015&#x2F;12&#x2F;bitcoins-creator-satoshi-nakamoto-is-probably-this-unknown-australian-genius&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;www.wired.com&#x2F;2015&#x2F;12&#x2F;bitcoins-creator-satoshi-nakam...</a><p>This was one of the first and strongest &quot;evidence&quot; supporting Craig&#x27;s claims, published by a well-known magazine and a reputable researcher. I&#x27;ve personally talked with several people who were convinced of the authenticity of Craig&#x27;s claims using this publication as one of their primary justifications.<p>The linked thread has a long discussion between Greg Maxwell (&#x2F;u&#x2F;nullc) and Gwern (&#x2F;u&#x2F;gwern), where Greg calls him out and repeatedly asks him to retract his previous claims; Gwern acknowledges that he was deceived, but refuses to make an official retraction.
