Who is the "father" of Bitcoin? HBO documentary will reveal the secret
On October 4, documentary producer Cullen Hoback and HBO recently announced the upcoming documentary film "MoneyElectric: The Mystery of Bitcoin", which attempts to decipher the identity of Satoshi Nakamoto. "MoneyElectric: The Mystery of Bitcoin" will be broadcast on HBO on October 8. The film interviews people who claim to have been in close contact with the founder after the release of Bitcoin, who said that Satoshi Nakamoto may not be one person, but a group of people.
The suspects include the late software engineer Hal Finney, the computer genius Len Sassaman who suffers from depression, the system engineer Dorian Nakamoto, the computer scientist Nick Szabo, and the inventor of Hashcash Adam Back.
The prediction market Polymarket data on October 7 showed that the probability of Adam Back being considered as Satoshi Nakamoto in the HBO documentary was 21%, exceeding Len Sassaman's 20%. However, Adam Back himself responded on X many times, refusing to admit that he was Satoshi Nakamoto and saying that it was just a joke. The latest prediction market Polymarket data on October 8 showed that the probability of Len Sassaman being considered as Satoshi Nakamoto in the HBO documentary rose to 24%, surpassing Adam Back's 12.5%.
