A dormant 2011 Satoshi-era wallet finished moving 80,000 BTCβ€”over $9.6B. If that’s one person, they quietly became one of the 400 richest people on Earth.

Adam Back’s Blockstream recently did a 30,000 BTC OTC deal. Same coins?

Trump launched a meme coin and it became worth $32 billion overnight Companies associated with the president-elect own as much as 80% of the supply.

Trump launched his own meme coin overnight and swiftly appeared to make more than $25 billion on paper for himself and his companies.

I'm watching @cullenhoback.bsky.social Money Electric finally and if Peter Todd isn't Satoshi, the way everyone acts so fucking weird makes me wonder if they accidentally killed the real Satoshi at a coked up party or something

Q influencer Liz Crokin’s new interest in Bitcoin has led her to discover Bitcoin Pizza Dayβ€”when 10k Bitcoin was paid for 2 pizzas.

She baked it as a Pizzagate style conspiracy.

Peter Todd appears to slip-up in interview with Bitcoin Magazine NL, says β€œwhen I started Bitcoin.”

In Money Electric, we suggest Peter Todd may be Satoshi. There has been ongoing debate since release.

Looking for writing errors, linguistic quirks and doing analysis of the original code seemed especially prudent.

ie. Satoshi spelled decentraliz/sed both ways on the same day. Adam and Peter also toggle between styles.

The original code was brilliant but messy, looked like an electrical engineer.

Watched Money Electric last night. Fully convinced, that Peter Todd created Bitcoin.

And fun that the creator @cullenhoback.bsky.social is on here already

Can’t stress enough if you plan to attend a protests, turn your phone off miles from the site & don’t turn it back on until you’re miles away. Go ahead and buy a faraday bag. It’s not crazy.

Answers about the transition to their desired utopia usually involve some highly disruptive period, then a rush to Bitcoin. But what that world actually looks like? The fantasy seems closer to Snow Crash or Cryptonomincon

I just joined Bluesky.

After Q: Into the Storm’s release, I dropped off social media to investigate Bitcoin’s origins and those trying to make it the global reserve currency. Our findings were just released on HBO. The film is called Money Electric: The Bitcoin Mystery

Here to fill in the blanks!

As he says in the end, the goal is β€œto make Bitcoin the global reserve currency.” Once it becomes intractable, Satoshi could potentially broker an OTC deal with a nation state. Until then, Satoshi can get by on coins that don’t follow the Patoshi pattern.

Yeah, he’s definitely unhappy we followed the evidence, eventually leading us his direction. His techniques were effective. He wasn’t even a suspect the first 6 months I filmed with him.

However, I think he likes the attention, enjoys the cat and mouse. Someone who knows him well:

Bitcoin’s inventor is a mystery. An HBO filmmaker thinks he found him. The HBO documentary explores the mystery of bitcoin’s creator, Satoshi Nakamoto, and suggests Peter Todd as a potential candidate.

The identity of the inventor of bitcoin might be the internet’s most enduring and consequential mystery. Now, the creator of a new HBO documentary thinks he may have solved the riddle.

What’s striking is the crypto community’s reaction. Unlike other Satoshi theories, there’s been a notable effort to undermine Money Electric. The pushback is almost as strong as the evidence supporting our case. Recommend you watch and decide for yourself.

We’re on the brink of anointing an anonymous figure as the wealthiest person on the planet. I’m convinced Satoshi Nakamoto is alive. For those unfamiliar with Bitcoin’s origins, that’s why we made Money Electric. It lays out years of research that point to someone unexpected.

Viral conspiracy theories by some liberal accounts, which claim Elon Musk's Starlink was used to rig the election for Donald Trump, are among the wildest I've seen and on a par with right-wing claims Venezuela or Italy hacked voting machines to win the 2020 election for Biden.

My new HBO Max doc, Money Electric: The Bitcoin Mystery, dives headfirst into the battle over the future of money and the unexpected players pulling the strings. When $40M prediction markets and hacking attempts start before we even air, you know something big is at stake.
