Everyone has heard of Satoshi Nakamoto.
He owns $70 billion worth of Bitcoin.
So why hasn't Nakamoto been announced yet?
Here is the investigation behind this mystery
October 31, 2008 A whitepaper describing a digital cryptocurrency was posted on an online cryptography email list. The title of this nine-page study is "
Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System".
January 3, 2009
The Bitcoin network was created by mining the chain's initial block, known as the "Genesis Block".
The code contained the first 50 $BTC and a message:

During these 64 days, a new story began about the concept of a completely new type of money.
But if it wasn't Saturday...
We would never hear about the crypto world.
So who is behind this?
One thing we know, based on interviews, is that he thought about the system in great detail.
Core developer Jeff Garzik
“His coding was unconventional,” he wrote.
He did not apply the rigorous tests you would expect from a traditional software engineer.
trying to uncover
There are many people who claim to be Nakamoto or to be Nakamoto.
However, none of the claims or suggestions have been proven true.

Analysis by Sergio Lerner, an expert on Bitcoin and cryptography, shows that:
— Nakamoto mined most of Bitcoin's first blocks
— He had accumulated an unspent fortune of approximately 1 million $ BTC...
The value of this hoard will be more than 70 billion US dollars as of March 08, 2024.
Some argue that Bitcoin would not be able to function as efficiently if Satoshi's identity was revealed.
Arguments for this position would include:
— Decentralization / Focus on Technology
— Strengthening Untrustworthy System/Community
