DOCUMENTARY CLAIMS SOLUTION TO $80B BITCOIN MYSTERY A new documentary claims to have identified Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto, suggesting the system may have been built by cryptographers Hal Finney and Len Sassaman, both now deceased. The film argues this could explain why 1.1 million untouched Bitcoins—now worth over $80 billion—have never been moved since being mined in Bitcoin’s early days. The mystery remains unverified, but the theory suggests the fortune may be dormant because its creator is no longer alive.

i'm not satoshi, but I was early in laser focus on the positive societal implications of cryptography, online privacy and electronic cash, hence my ~1992 onwards active interest in applied research on ecash, privacy tech on cypherpunks list which led to hashcash and other ideas.
