The other way to prove that is to just start mining. People will notice immediately.

Funnily enough, I know about of people that believe easily provable but unproved claims like that. They don't even have to be as gullible as Craig Wright's followers, its seemingly a generational thing for people with some unrelated clout in one domain to be therefore believed in pie in the sky things. Especially in Europe for some reason, but I've seen it amongst Baby Boomers here in the states. Don't know how the rest of the world is.

I didn't realize Craig Wright had followers; I thought he's just a nutter shouting in the corner and everyone else rolling their eyes, like that fella who have been claiming he invented email.

I do wonder how many of them are genuine and how many are trolls just edging him on for teh lulz.
