Duffer1: he's going to have newsies camped out on his lawn
cads: once you buy that this could be possible the rest of the article does down like a glass of water :)
cads: the part that makes the article high entertainment is where they reveal that the man's name is actually satoshi nakamoto
BingoBoingo: Just as likely actual Satoshi disliked this Satoshi and chose his name to reserve that seat in the Gasenwagen

mircea_popescu: it simply means that you can't find a us bank that'' work with you.
mircea_popescu: this is quite relevant for bitcoin. living in an oppressive, totalitarian regime does not mean obama orders your business destroyed
mircea_popescu: This is what oppression often looks like. No one called from Moscow and told this guy to destroy Termen's work. But he didn't care to stick his neck out, and took a proactive approach."
