    Then it would be trivial to sign a message using his known wallet address that could be cryptographicly verified. But he is lying so he can’t.

      I don’t think this guy is Satoshi but no Bitcoin wallets known to belong to Satoshi have been active since their initial transactions. I think it’s likely that the keys for those wallets have been lost. So I don’t think the inability to sign these messages proves that he’s not Satoshi, the fraud does though.
