Peter Todd Dismisses HBO Documentary's Claim: "I Am Not Satoshi"

The release of HBO's much-hyped documentary, "Money Electric: The Bitcoin Mystery," aimed to lift the veil on the identity of Bitcoin’s creator, Satoshi Nakamoto. While the film delves deep into Bitcoin's history, it concludes by naming Peter Todd, a respected Bitcoin Core developer, as a prime suspect. However, Todd wasted no time in refuting the allegations.

Todd's Immediate Response Taking to social platform X (formerly Twitter), Todd responded firmly: “I’m not Satoshi.” Despite the unexpected attention, Todd maintained his composure, even humorously noting the surreal nature of the claims. When asked how he felt about the sudden spotlight, he said, “Not my first rodeo... but this might be crazier than before.” His remarks conveyed a mix of humor and disbelief at the documentary's accusations.

Ongoing Speculation

For years, the true identity of Satoshi Nakamoto has been the subject of endless speculation. With billions of dollars in Bitcoin under Satoshi’s control, the stakes are undeniably high. While Todd’s involvement with Bitcoin, particularly in its early years, and his interactions with Satoshi have raised eyebrows, there remains little concrete evidence tying him to the pseudonymous founder.

The documentary also speculates on Todd’s early engagement with the cypherpunk movement, hinting that his timeline could match up with Satoshi’s activity. However, even after presenting Todd’s forum interactions and connections with key figures like Adam Back, HBO failed to deliver any undeniable proof of Todd being Satoshi.

Todd Dismisses the Claims In a humorous exchange captured in the documentary, Todd sarcastically commented, “Of course I’m Satoshi. And I’m Craig Wright.” His remark highlights the absurdity of the speculation, further emphasizing his denial.

While HBO tried to reignite the debate surrounding Bitcoin's elusive creator, the lack of definitive evidence in their case against Todd leaves the mystery unsolved. For now, Peter Todd stands firm in his stance, leaving the question of Satoshi Nakamoto’s true identity as elusive as ever.
