Bitcoin (BTC) News: HBO's Documentary Reveals Alleged Identity of Bitcoin Creator Satoshi Nakamoto

HBO's Major Announcement on Bitcoin Creator

According to the American television network HBO, the pseudonymous Satoshi Nakamoto, who created Bitcoin, may not be a mystery for much longer. The alleged discovery could significantly impact Bitcoin (BTC), as anonymity has played a strategic role in maintaining the cryptocurrency's decentralized nature.

Satoshi Nakamoto Unmasked, HBO Says

In a Thursday post on X, HBO said it would premiere a documentary to reveal the identity of the pseudonymous Bitcoin creator, Satoshi Nakamoto. Based on the trailer, the documentary will feature some influential personalities in the Bitcoin playing field.

  • Adam Back, the inventor of the blockchain hashing algorithm.
  • Roger Ver, prominent in Bitcoin Cash.
  • Samson Mow and Philip Karađorđević, notable Bitcoin figures.

The identity of Satoshi has puzzled many since Bitcoin emerged in 2009 as the first truly decentralized cryptocurrency. This revelation potentially makes public the controller of about 1.1 million Bitcoin, the largest BTC stash in existence.

Satoshi’s Possible Influence

If Satoshi Nakamoto still holds the cryptographic keys to their Bitcoin fortune, their net worth would be approximately $67.5 billion at current prices.

Recently, several high-value wallets thought to be from the Satoshi era became active for the first time since 2009, sparking curiosity about their ownership.

Theories about Satoshi Nakamoto

Various theories exist about who Satoshi Nakamoto is. Notable figures include:

  1. Nick Szabo 
  2. Hal Finney
  3. Dorian Nakamoto
  4. Craig Wright
  5. A Group of Individuals

However, the recent ruling by the UK presiding judge, Mr. Justice Mellor, determined that Craig Wright is not the pseudonymous creator of Bitcoin. This ruling came about after the Crypto Open Patent Alliance (Copa) raised charges against him, aiming to prevent claims on Bitcoin's invention.
