Since the establishment of the digital currency in 2009 by an unidentified person or people going by the name Satoshi Nakamoto, the question has captured the attention of the internet.
The creators of a movie on HBO claim to have the solution at last: Peter Todd is a Canadian expert in crypto.
The theory’s sole flaw is that Mr. Todd has written it off as “ludicrous.”
Filmmaker Cullen Hoback confronts Peter Todd in Money Electric: The Bitcoin Mystery.
Mr. Todd laughs off Mr. Hoback’s question about whether he was responsible for the now trillion-dollar idea after he presents him with his proof.
Not only is Satoshi’s identity a mystery, but their vast fortune has also added to the mystique around them.
At roughly $69 billion in value today, if they were still in charge of their bitcoin wallet, Satoshi would rank as the world’s 20th richest person.
Renowned Bitcoin pioneer Peter Todd is credited with numerous breakthroughs in the first and biggest cryptocurrency in the world.
