This paper as I have posted before shows Wrights limited programming skills best seen in this summary from the beginning. Draw your own conclusion as to the integrity of Craig Wright
A key with a 2008 date can be forged by having your computer’s clock set to 2008 when you create the key.
Wright was caught out because his keys purporting to be from 2008 contained a modern configuration setting which was not in software used to create keys until 2009 onward.
In response he produced the “Appeal to authority” paper, which showed how a key created in 2008 can be edited to contain the configuration that wouldn’t appear until 2009.
One of several problems with that paper is that Wright’s 2008 keys contained the modern configuration from the moment they were created — they were never updated the way his “Appeal to authority” paper suggests, and screenshots from that paper show this.
