This unforeseen turn of events has reignited discussions around Satoshi Nakamoto’s true identity and the future trajectory of Bitcoin.
In his recent tweet, Satoshi Nakamoto noted: “Bitcoin is a predicate machine. Over the following months, we shall explore different aspects that were not explicitly contained within the white paper.

As per Satoshi Nakamoto’s account, there’s a drive to further elucidate and expand upon ideas that were briefly mentioned in the early years. Remarkably, within a mere 24 hours of the post’s publication, it garnered over 1 million views.
Around 15 years ago, Satoshi Nakamoto originally unveiled the highly acclaimed Bitcoin whitepaper, introducing the concept of this digital currency. This document, articulating Nakamoto’s vision for the currency, made its debut on metzdowd.com. In it, Satoshi outlined Bitcoin as a novel electronic cash system, emphasizing its fully peer-to-peer nature and the absence of any need for trust in third parties.
Mystery Behind the Real Satoshi Nakamoto
There’s been a lot of mystery around the real identity behind the pseudonymous Bitcoin creator, Satoshi Nakamoto. Australian computer scientist Craig Wright has claimed to the be real Satoshi Nakamoto, however, many developers believe him to be a fraud.
Crypto lawyer John E. Deaton has recently raised questions regarding the enigmatic identity of Satoshi Nakamoto. The lawyer acknowledges the possibility of Craig Wright’s involvement or knowledge regarding Nakamoto. However, he also suggests that Wright’s explosive personality might disqualify him as the true inventor of Bitcoin. Deaton tweeted:
Even though I’ve suspected he was involved or in the know about Satoshi, I’ve always believed CSW did not have the keys because he has too explosive of a personality. He would’ve moved/sold the coins by now just to cause chaos IMO. He threatened to do it 2015. But, then again, I’m speculating like everyone else.
Additionally, famed tech entrepreneur and Bitcoin SV (BSV) advocate Christen Ager-Hanssen declared on September 30, 2023, that he has uncovered “convincing proof” suggesting that Dr. Craig Wright manipulated documents in an attempt to mislead the court into believing he is Satoshi Nakamoto.
