SpaceX debuted today after a $75B IPO raise, closing with a $2.11 trillion market cap, and Anthropic is searching for 1 GW to host its own GPU clusters. Welcome back to The Blockspace Podcast! SpaceX's historic IPO came and went today, marking a day of firsts that saw the company close the largest IPO ever at a $2 trillion valuation, making its founder Elon Musk the world's first trillionaire. Nakamoto's Brandon Bailey joins us to discuss the IPO and the current state of the AI stock market and bitcoin, plus his project Dimetrics, a Bloomberg-esque terminal for the data center space. In other big news, Anthropic has reportedly entered into 12 letters of intent to rent 1 GW+ of data center space for its first-ever self-owned GPU clusters.  Check out our latest report, “What's a Megawatt Worth?” where we quantify the trillion dollar opportunity for bitcoin miners venturing into the AI sector.  Subscribe to our newsletter to receive updates for all of our shows and content.

Eind vorige zomer kondigde cryptodienstverlener Amdax een nieuw initiatief aan: een Nederlands bedrijf dat bitcoin op de balans zou zetten en daarmee naar Euronext Amsterdam zou gaan. Het heette toen Amsterdam Bitcoin Treasury Strategy, kortweg AMBTS. De ambitie was groot. Op termijn wilde het bedrijf 1 procent van alle bitcoin bezitten, ruim 210.000 munten. Voor institutionele partijen als pensioenfondsen en verzekeraars, die vaak niet rechtstreeks in crypto mogen beleggen, zou een beursgenoteerd aandeel een gereguleerde ingang bieden tot de koers van bitcoin. Inmiddels is het beeld anders. De toezichthouder AFM is voor een notering op de Amsterdamse beurs gaan liggen, en het bedrijf onderging een rebranding. Amsterdam Bitcoin Treasury Strategy heet nu Ambitious en presenteert zich niet langer als treasury company maar als bitcoin operating company. Waar het eerst draaide om koerswinst en een accumulatiedoel, gaat het nu over operationele kasstromen en een capaciteitsambitie. Geen vaste doelstelling van 210.000 bitcoin meer, maar het voornemen om die hoeveelheid in te zetten als brandstof, onderpand en werkkapitaal binnen wat het de bitcoineconomie noemt. In deze aflevering spreekt Daniel Mol met Lucas Wensing, CEO van Amdax en medeoprichter van Ambitious, over wat er precies misging. Op basis waarvan weigert de AFM toegang tot de beurs? Wensing noemt een geweigerde prospectus zeldzaam en stelt dat de toezichthouder onder meer struikelt over de ambitie om 1 procent van alle bitcoin te bezitten. De zaak ligt nu bij het College van Beroep voor het bedrijfsleven, de hoogste bestuursrechter op economisch terrein. Wat gebeurt er als Ambitious gelijk krijgt, en wat als het ongelijk krijgt? Het gesprek gaat ook over het bredere speelveld. Het afgelopen jaar gingen veel treasury companies kopje onder, en min of meer tegelijk met AMBTS verscheen in Nederland ook Treasury, een initiatief rond David Bailey van Nakamoto en de gebroeders Winklevoss. Waar zit volgens Wensing de echte winst in het operaten van bitcoin, en welke bedrijven maken dat model naast MicroStrategy waar? En dan de praktische vraag: nu er 30 miljoen euro is opgehaald, is dat al omgezet in bitcoin, en zitten de investeerders hier eigenlijk nog op te wachten? Co-host is Jacob Boersma. Over de podcast Cryptocurrency are here to stay. In deze wekelijkse podcast gidst Daniel Mol je door het belangrijkste cryptonieuws, langs hypes en trends, voor- en tegenstanders en winst en verlies.

Wer ist Satoshi Nakamoto?Die CIA? Hal Finney? Eine Zeitreisenden-KI? Oder doch einfach nur jemand, der verstanden hat, dass ein wirklich dezentrales Geldsystem keinen CEO verträgt?In dieser Folge versuchen wir ausnahmsweise nicht, das größte Rätsel der Bitcoin-Geschichte endgültig zu lösen — sehr zum Bedauern zukünftiger Netflix-Dokumentationen. Stattdessen sprechen wir darüber, warum Satoshi Nakamoto als Idee vermutlich wichtiger ist als als Person.Gemeinsam mit Jeff und Effet Cantillon reist Chris zurück ins Jahr 2008: Finanzkrise, Bankenrettungen, Vertrauensverlust — und mitten hinein platzt ein anonymer Beitrag in einer obskuren Cryptography Mailing List:“I've been working on a new electronic cash system that's fully peer-to-peer, with no trusted third party.”Der Rest ist Geschichte. Oder Mythos. Oder beides.Wir sprechen über:die historischen und technologischen Wurzeln von Bitcoindie Cypherpunk-Bewegung und die Mailing List, aus der Bitcoin entstandwarum frühere digitale Geldsysteme scheitertenSatoshis Kommunikationsstil zwischen Nerd-Pragmatismus und maximaler OPSECdie Bedeutung seines Verschwindensden Mythos rund um seine Identitätaktuelle Dokus, Bücher und moderne Satoshi-Detektivarbeitund die vielleicht wichtigste Frage überhaupt: Warum funktioniert Bitcoin womöglich gerade deshalb, weil niemand mehr sagen kann: „Frag einfach den Gründer.“Eine Folge über Bitcoin ohne Personenkult, über Dezentralität ohne Marketing-Abteilung — und über den wahrscheinlich berühmtesten Menschen der Welt, den es offiziell vielleicht nie gab.Von und mit: - CantillonEffet- Chris⚡SHA256 (Cutting)- Chris⚡SHA256- Fulmo ⚡Produziert und geschnitten: ChrisHier könnt ihr uns eine Spende über Lightning da lassen: ⚡️nodesignal@getalby.comZusätzlich haben wir auch einen Silent Payment Link: sp1qq0a2rles9y32ffmj0eawvjglgqsgj7hq99ers580l98k42a7rh9szq3sa50fh2e5lwf22fxcjy0qw88u72vlj328qr39da245sq4nrskuqvvv5l4Neben dem Podcast findet ihr uns auch auf YouTubeFür Feedback und weitergehenden Diskussionen kommt gerne in die Telegramgruppe von Nodesignal und bewertet uns bei Spotify und Apple Podcasts, das hilft uns sehr.

Jeff Casler and Angelo Firenze don't run a Bitcoin conference. They run a Bitcoin camp. Jeff is a serial entrepreneur and MS survivor — co-founder of Camp Nakamoto and @btc_mass, with a thesis-forward "why this matters" voice. Angelo grew up on Sandy Island. He spent decades as director of the original family camp the property was built around — and now runs the Bitcoin version of the same idea. Every summer, the Bitcoin world boards another plane to another conference. And every summer, some of us come home wondering if we actually made a single real connection. This is the conversation about what happens when someone looks at that and decides to build the inverse — four days on a 66-acre private island in Lake Winnipesaukee, New Hampshire. Cabins. Campfires. All-inclusive meals including the Cattleman's Feast. A speaker series that doesn't feel like a speaker series because you're sitting with the speakers at dinner. June 18-21, 2026. I'm speaking there — and I said yes because I believe in what they're building. Their thesis is simple: the typical Bitcoin conference is great for introducing ideas. Camp Nakamoto is great for integrating them. You don't have five minutes after a keynote to ask your question — you have 72 hours. Larry Lapard, Tom Luongo, Efrat Fenigson, Joe Consorti aren't in a green room. They're at breakfast. Around the campfire at sunset. In the cornhole tournament. As Angelo puts it: the whole thing is the lobby. We also get the "last boat" moment — what Angelo realized after the first event in 2025, why he didn't believe it would work until the last ferry pulled away. The 2026 speaker lineup including Tom Luongo, Ben Justman, Efrat Fenigson, Joe Consorti, Seb Bunny, Luke Broyles, Anders Jensen, Matthew Lysiak, Kevin McKernan, Haley Lennon, Brandon Gentile, Beau Turner, Kyle Huber — plus Ainsley Costello playing live. The Cattleman's Feast partnership with Texas Slim's Beef Initiative. And the family case: why parents on the island let their kids run free in a way you don't see in modern society anymore. If you've ever wondered what the post-orange-pill phase actually looks like in person — not on Twitter, not in a conference hallway, but around a campfire with people who showed up for the same reason you did — this is the conversation. We discuss: Introduce vs. integrate — why ideas land differently when you have 72 hours with the speaker instead of five minutes after a keynote, and Angelo's design principle that "the whole thing is the lobby" The "last boat" moment — Angelo's emotional origin moment from the first event in 2025, why he didn't believe it would work until the last ferry pulled away, and what it taught him about the difference between selling tickets and building community The Cattleman's Feast — Texas Slim's Beef Initiative partnership, the grass-fed high-omega-3 steak that made attendees say "the best I've ever had," Peony Lane Bitcoin wine pairing, and why food became one of the strongest brand moments of the first event Kids running free — what happens to parenting when an island full of Bitcoiners decides to let their children explore, why it feels like 1950s parenting in the best possible way, and the case for bringing your family Why community in 2026 matters more than ever — Jeff and Angelo's "we need our peeps" thesis, the move from talking the talk to living the life, and what real-life Bitcoin community looks like after the orange pill metabolizes Subscribe so you never miss an episode.

The dollar erased every war gain, oil's back above $102, yields are at 4.5%, and mining stocks just gave you the buying opportunity of the year. Gold settled the week at $4,612 with silver at $75.33, both drifting lower as investor attention shifted to record-high stock indexes. Mining stocks took the hardest hit with GDX down 6.25% — a buying opportunity Peter Schiff says is being created by the same complacency that preceded every major gold breakout. The dollar index fell to 97.7, erasing every penny gained since the Iran war began — a historically weak bounce for a supposed safe haven currency. Oil climbed back above $102 while 30-year Treasury yields touched 4.5%, recreating the exact conditions that forced Trump to reverse Liberation Day tariffs. Schiff revisits Powell's claim of 40 years of controlled inflation, breaking it down decade by decade to show average CPI of 5.5% in the '80s, 3% in the '90s, and 2.6% in the 2000s — with only the post-crisis 2010s near the 2% target. He also highlights the Bitcoin conference where last year's darling Nakamoto is down 99% between conferences, while this year's pitch of "digital credit" is even worse than subprime.

Is Bukele a dictator, or is he simply executing the mandate of a population that was previously held hostage by gang violence and state corruption?Joe Nakamoto joins me to separate the propaganda from the facts surrounding the first nation to adopt Bitcoin as legal tender. We examine the on-the-ground truth of what happens when a nation opts out of the broken fiat system and bets on a sovereign future.Moving beyond the headlines, we break down what a functional circular economy looks like. From El Zonte to Livingstone, Zambia, the goal is radical independence, building economic growth from the bottom up. We explore how merchants, farmers, and tourists are keeping value within their own communities instead of leaking it to centralized intermediaries, creating tangible wealth where credit cards and banks were never an option.The conversation inevitably turns to President Bukele and the tension between safety and state power. It is a complex situation that forces us to reconcile our comfortable Western ideals of governance with the raw, utilitarian needs of a developing nation that is finally feeling secure for the first time in generations.We also pull no punches on the surveillance state. With the rise of strict KYC requirements, the core promise of decentralization is under constant threat. Joe and I discuss why Bitcoin companies have a moral obligation to push back against regulatory capture. Relying on peer-to-peer solutions is the only way to avoid the trap of a segmented, compliant financial system that destroys the privacy that makes Bitcoin valuable in the first place.Finally, we talk about the mental leap required to fully embrace this change. The lightning network has made fast and cheap transactions possible, but the transformation happens in the mind. We discuss the difficult process of unlearning fiat habits and training ourselves to price our labor, our time, and our future in satoshis. If you are ready to stop watching the tickers and start participating in the revolution, this conversation is for you.

Who is Satoshi Nakamoto? Bitcoin's pseudonymous founder has hidden his identity for 17 years despite many attempts to unmask him, even as his cryptocurrency has revolutionized finance and made him a billionaire. John Carreyrou, an investigative reporter for The New York Times, walks us through the evidence he found pointing to the person behind the pseudonym. Then, we hear from the man John believes is Mr. Nakamoto. Guest: John Carreyrou, an investigative reporter for The New York Times's business section. Background reading:  Read John's investigation into the identity of Bitcoin's creator. Here are four takeaways from the article.

Israël zet de aanvallen op Libanon door, terwijl Europese leiders vinden dat het land zich aan het staakt-het-vuren tussen de Verenigde Staten en Iran moet houden. EU-buitenlandchef Kaja Kallas waarschuwt dat Israël de wapenstilstand met Iran onder grote druk zet en krijgt bijval van ministers uit het VK, Frankrijk, Italië en Spanje. De uiteenlopende interpretaties van het staakt-het-vuren zorgen ook voor meer spanning tussen Europa en de VS, waar vicepresident JD Vance benadrukt dat Libanon geen onderdeel is van de deal met Iran. De Britse regering meldt dat Russische onderzeeërs wekenlang dichtbij kritieke onderzeese infrastructuur bij het Verenigd Koninkrijk hebben geopereerd. Volgens commandeur b.d. Michiel Hijmans gaat het om spionageactiviteiten bij pijpleidingen en datakabels, waarbij de Britten en Noren de schepen wel konden volgen maar weinig konden ondernemen zolang er geen schade werd aangericht. Met marineschepen en mogelijk eigen onderzeeboten laat het VK vooral merken dat de Russische aanwezigheid wordt gezien en gemonitord. Er wordt al jaren gespeculeerd wie de ontwikkelaar van de Bitcoin is - met het alias Satoshi Nakamato. The New York Times claimt de man ontmaskerd te hebben. Uit onderzoek van de krant blijkt dat het wel programmeur Adam Back moet zijn. Back zelf ontkent dat hij Nakamoto is en dus geen toegang heeft tot de miljoen Bitcoin die in handen zijn van de anonieme uitvinder van het digitale geld.

La criptografía es el arte de la escritura secreta. ¿Cómo mandar un mensaje que solo pueda leer su destinatario? ¿Cuál fue la primera herramienta de codificación que se utilizó? ¿Cómo descifrar el código de un enemigo? Estas fascinantes preguntas son el origen de la criptografía, un campo que Alfre estudia con pasión. Su libro Criptorias se divide en dos partes: antes de Turing y después de Turing, considerado el padre de la criptografía moderna. La escritura oculta es tan antigua como la propia civilización.Me hace especial ilusión comercializar un producto que protegerá tus ahorros en estos tiempos inciertos.

In deze aflevering bespreken we een opvallend quantum-paper over het verantwoord publiceren van kwetsbaarheden in cryptografie, de hack van Drift waarbij $270 miljoen verdween, en de vraag of de fase van “institutions are coming” inmiddels definitief achter ons ligt. Verder hebben we het over Morgan Stanley's goedkopere Bitcoin ETF, Square dat bitcoinbetalingen automatisch activeert voor miljoenen verkopers, een aan Citadel gelieerde exchange die een banklicentie aanvraagt, en Franklin Templeton dat Franklin Crypto lanceert. We sluiten af met een marktupdate over de crisis in Iran en de impact daarvan op de olieprijs en de cryptomarkt.https://btca.nl/eindhovenProbeer Bitcoin Alpha 2 weken gratis!Satoshi Radio wordt mede mogelijk gemaakt door: Firefish, Watson Law en onze hoofdsponsor Bitvavo.Timestamps(00:00:00) Welkom en Podcast Introductie(00:16:00) Bookmark van Bart: Safeguarding cryptocurrency by disclosing quantum vulnerabilities responsibly(00:57:00) Bookmark van Peter: Drift is gehacked ($270 miljoen), geen 1 april-grap(01:09:00) Bookmark van Bert: The “institutions are coming” phase is about to be over.

David Bailey reveals that 30-40 countries are secretly mining Bitcoin and 10+ nations are quietly building strategic Bitcoin reserves. The CEO of Nakamoto and Bitcoin Magazine joins Brandon to break down the Nakamoto-BTC Inc merger, why Bitcoin treasury companies are struggling, how the convertible note strategy backfired, what the Trump administration has actually delivered for Bitcoin, and why the nation-state Bitcoin race is bigger than anyone realizes. David shares hard-won lessons from his first year as a public company CEO, explains why you can't out-Saylor Saylor, and reveals the asymmetric advantage of accumulating Bitcoin in a bear market. He also discusses why no government wants to announce their Bitcoin holdings — and why that's about to change.

Tyler Evans and Pierre Rochard provide a candid look at the current 50% drawdown and why Market-to-NAV compression is a rite of passage for the new class of Bitcoin Treasuries. They break down why Nakamoto ($NAKA) is doubling down on "Information-to-Capital" flywheels while the marginal equity investor is tapped out, and how yield-bearing preferred shares are becoming the go-to instrument for the next wave of institutional adoption.Chapters: 00:53 - Tyler's origins in Bitcoin03:40 - Vision of BTC Media13:04 - Acquisition of BTC Media & UTXO by Nakamoto16:56 - Bear Bitcoin Market24:39 - Scalability of Financing for Bitcoin Treasury Companies30:30 - New Products from Nakamoto34:16 - Bitcoin's Motivating Factor for Countries38:27 - Potential Strategic Bitcoin Reserve?46:16 - One last fun question…46:45 - The Critical Necessities for a Bitcoin Treasury CompanyDISCLAIMER: The views and opinions expressed in this show are those of the participants and do not necessarily reflect the official policy or position of BTC Inc., Bitcoin Magazine, or any affiliated entities.

Recorded live at CES 2026 at the Sonatus booth, host John Heinlein interviews Takayuki 'Terry' Nakamoto, Director of Electrical, Electronics, and ADAS Engineering Department at Nissan Technical Center Europe. The conversation explores how NTCE develops vehicles manufactured in the UK for global markets and discusses the challenges of traditional vehicle development processes that rely heavily on physical vehicle testing. Terry explains how their partnership with Sonatus is revolutionizing their approach through two key AI solutions: Sonatus Collector AI, which enables remote data access and customizable data collection policies, and Sonatus AI Technician, which provides expert-level diagnostic guidance. These tools are helping Nissan reduce development time, minimize the need for expensive preproduction vehicles, and accelerate their start-of-production (SOP) cycles while maintaining quality standards. The interview showcases real demonstrations of the technology and highlights the significant time and resource savings achieved through this digital transformation approach.

Bitcoin's price may be volatile, but according to David Bailey, CEO of Nakamoto and architect of the Bitcoin treasury movement, we're entering an entirely new phase... one where every company will eventually own Bitcoin. In this exclusive conversation, David reveals what's really happening behind the scenes of the Bitcoin treasury market, how Wall Street's manipulation has targeted Bitcoin firms, and why the four-year cycle is officially dead.

Brandon Green and David Bailey sit down for a conversation about the future of BTC Inc, Nakamoto, and Bitcoin itself. Bailey outlines why his mission is to “hijack the financial system,” how public-company risk works behind the scenes, and why bitcoin's market structure is changing forever. He lays out a 50-year roadmap: trillions in value creation, a global bitcoin reserve, and hyperbitcoinization driven through capital markets.

In this episode, Mauricio sits down with Steven Lubka — formerly Head of Private Wealth at Swan Bitcoin and now VP of Investor Relations at Nakamoto — to unpack the rise of Bitcoin treasury companies, the mechanics behind “Paper Bitcoin Summer,” and how public markets are becoming a major force in global Bitcoin adoption. Steven shares his personal journey from a non-financial upbringing to becoming one of the most recognizable voices in Bitcoin, and he explains how understanding investing changed his life.They discuss how Bitcoin treasury companies differ from ETFs, why they're resonating with global capital markets, and the role Nakamoto aims to play by creating first-mover treasury companies in international markets.

Avalanche says it can finally square the circle: sub‑second finality, a large decentralized validator set, and thousands of sovereign L1s connected through native messaging for shared liquidity.In the genesis episode of our new ECOSYSTEMS podcast, Camila Russo and guest cohost Luigi D'Onorio DeMeo of Ava Labs unpack the Avalanche story—from Team Rocket's probabilistic consensus and the stadium sampling intuition, to today's “city of chains” (C‑Chain liquidity hub, P/X chains, and customizable L1s). We discuss:How random sampling achieves speed and safety/liveness guaranteesCustomization without fragmentation via inter-chain messaging (ICM)L1 vs L2 trade-offs: shared security vs shared risk, costs, and interoperabilityEnterprise paths (FIFA, Toyota, fintechs), privacy options, and Ava Cloud's “L1 in minutes”Decentralization in practice: validator counts, Nakamoto coefficient, and hardware accessibilityWhat real adoption looks like for payments, DeFi, and emerging marketsIf Avalanche is right, it has the chance to make finance programmable at scale. If not, we add to the L1 graveyard.

Lato już dawno za nami, czas więc na całego wrócić do technologicznych lektur. W tym odcinku czytamy trzy książki: dwie poświęcone ludziom, a jedną zjawisku. Czytamy więc chyba najlepszą biografię Xi Jinpinga, jaka jest obecnie dostępna na rynku - analizujemy, skąd wzięły się niektóre decyzje Xi i dlaczego ten chiński przywódca ma tak silny związek z technologiami. Zanurzamy się też w poszukiwania najbardziej tajemniczej postaci świata technologii XXI w. - twórcy Bitcoina, czyli Satoshiego Nakamoto, który zniknął w 2011 r. i od tamtej pory nie wiadomo, co się z nim stało. To książka niemal kryminalna! I w końcu żałujemy wielu naszych wyborów konsumenckich, do czego zainspirowała nas bardzo dobra i smutna książka o gigantycznym przemyśle śmieci. Oczywiście, skupiamy się na wątku technologicznym, ale obiecujemy, że po tym odcinku inaczej spojrzycie na swoje własne odpady!

Benjamin Wallace's new book is The Mysterious Mr. Nakamoto: A Fifteen-Year Quest to Unmask the Secret Genius Behind Crypto.   It's the greatest whodunit. Whoever created Bitcoin became the world's richest person, yet we don't know who he is. In fact, we don't even know if it's one person. There have been other cases where identities have been hidden for a while: Mysterious Whistleblowers (Deep Throat) Mysterious Authors (Ferrante, Klein, Publius) Mysterious Artists (Banksy) Mysterious Spies / Hackers (Cambridge Five, QAnon figureheads, Cicada 3301) However, nothing tops the enigma of Satoshi Nakamoto. Watch my interview with Benjamin Wallace on the WanderLearn Show: Watch the Video Interview Questions for Benjamin Wallace In 60 seconds, tell us why we should be curious about who Satoshi Nakamoto was. What's the percentage chance that Satoshi Nakamoto is more than one person? What's the percentage chance that Satoshi Nakamoto is dead? Assuming he's alive, what's the percentage chance that Satoshi Nakamoto will voluntarily reveal himself in his old age or via a dead man's switch video? Who are your top 4 candidates for Satoshi Nakamoto? If those 4 candidates are in a pie chart, how big is the 5th piece of the pie: the Someone Else slice?  Although Nakamoto's OPSEC was impeccable, is it realistic to believe that he faked his Britishisms, his double-spacing after periods, and potentially running his prose & code through a stylometry mixer because he was certain that Bitcoin would become a multi-trillion-dollar asset? What new insights have you had since you wrote the book? What's the percentage chance that we will definitively solve this mystery like we solved the Deep Throat mystery? Or will the ending be more like Forrest Fenn (e.g., a partial conclusion because we know the treasure was found and by whom, but we don't know where)?  What surprised you in your investigation? It seems you want Nakamoto to be Hal Finney, but it's hard to believe he didn't tap into the fortune when his life was on the line. And why not admit to being Nakamoto when he was on his deathbed? Perhaps to protect his family from assaults? Perhaps because he collaborated with someone else and doesn't want to unmask him. But then he could admit that he was part of the Satoshi team and leave it at that. Who is Satoshi Nakamoto? In his book, Wallace writes that any plausible Nakamoto candidate should have the following characteristics: Software tools Coding quirks Age Geography Schedule Use of English Nationality Prose style Politics Life circumstances (How had Nakamoto found the time to launch Bitcoin? Why had he left the project when he did?" Resume ("I'm not a lawyer.") Emotional range (humble, confident, testy, appreciative) Motivation to create Bitcoin Rationale, and the foresight and skill, to create a bulletproof pseudonym (Who would bother wiping a crime scene clean before it was a crime scene? Who was already that good at privacy in 2008?) Monkish capacity to renounce a fortune Although this list severely restricts who Satoshi Nakamoto could be, it still leaves countless possibilities. Wallace, who has been trying to crack this mystery for 15 years, has yet to meet a candidate who checks all the boxes. Wallace refrains from declaring that he has solved the mystery, even though countless "detectives" have already done so. He interviews people who tell him, with 100% certainty, that Satoshi Nakamoto is: Nick Szabo James A. Donald Adam Back Hal Finney Peter Todd (according to HBO) Elon Musk Numerous other options It's tempting to select what you think is the most viable candidate, throw in a heavy dose of confirmation bias, and declare, "Mystery solved, Sherlock!" Plenty have done so. It requires great restraint to resist the temptation of calling it a day, and instead, persevere pugnaciously like Wallace has in what is the greatest whodunit of the 21st century.  Many suspects seem highly implausible. Elon Musk, for example, is a bombastic self-promoter who would love to proclaim he was the genius behind Bitcoin. It's unimaginable why he would keep his mouth shut. Hal Finney was a sincere, honest, and good guy. As he said many times when he was dying of ALS, he had no reason NOT to reveal that he was Satoshi Nakamoto. Therefore, it's not him, even though it would provide a neat explanation as to why the old Satoshi Nakamoto bitcoins haven't moved.  Adam Back is plausible, although ex-cypherpunk Jon Callas says, "The primary argument against Adam Back is he couldn't keep his mouth shut." Still, an engrossing 3-part documentary argues that Nakamoto is Adam Back. Here's the final episode: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XfcvX0P1b5g  Is Nick Szabo Satoshi Nakamoto? For several years, I believed Nick Szabo was Satoshi Nakamoto. It was an unoriginal deduction since Szabo is a popular choice among amateur Nakamoto detectives. Indeed, Szabo was one of Wallace's prime candidates for a long time. However, in his book, Wallace explains why Szabo has too many strikes against him: Szabo is a scatterbrain when it comes to projects. He doesn't focus on one thing for years. He juggles 150 balls. Nakamoto was laser-focused for 18 months. He told Jeremy Clark that Szabo "seemed to think that his bit gold was better" than Bitcoin. Clark also said Szabo is an "incoherent" presenter, whereas Nakamoto was "lucid."  Although Szabo is intensely private, he's not a complete recluse. He likes sharing ideas and getting public recognition.  Minor point: Satoshi Nakamoto wrote, "I'm not a lawyer," but Szabo is one. Although these points suggest Szabo is unlikely to be Satoshi, Szabo remains a strong Nakamoto candidate, given the absence of a perfect candidate. Besides, Clark's points are easily refuted. Just because Szabo implied Bitgold was better than Bitcoin means little. Szabo could say that to shake off people who think he's Satoshi. Or he could genuinely believe that aspects of Bitgold were superior to Bitcoin. Clark said Szabo "seemed to think..." He didn't say, "Szabo emphatically said..." Also, I listened to Szabo speak for 2.5 hours on the Tim Ferriss Show, and he sounded plenty lucid to me.  Szabo is a decent speaker. Naturally, Szabo always denies he's Satoshi. As Wallace says, denying you're not the guy proves nothing. Mark Felt was an obvious suspect for being the Deep Throat in the Watergate scandal. He denied for decades. And guess what? He was Deep Throat! Sometimes the most obvious suspect is the criminal (think O.J. Simpson). Is James A. Donald Satoshi Nakamoto? After reading The Mysterious Mr. Nakamoto, I added another suspect to my short list: James A. Donald. Satoshi Nakamoto used the rare term "hosed" a few times. Donald did so twice.  Furthermore, Donald was the first person to respond to Satoshi Nakamoto's original Bitcoin post, albeit in a critical way. He has various other attributes that Satoshi Nakamoto shares (read the book to see them all).  However, Donald is rough around the edges, whereas Satoshi Nakamoto was silky smooth, polite, and unoffensive. Again, James A. Donald is no slam dunk candidate. Nobody is. Hence, the mystery endures.  The only negative aspect about this book is that it may provide too much detail for the casual reader with limited interest in this mystery. If you're just looking for the answer, I'll tell you now: we do not know who Satoshi Nakamoto is.  For Satoshi sleuths, there is no better resource than The Mysterious Mr. Nakamoto: A Fifteen-Year Quest to Unmask the Secret Genius Behind Crypto. It delves deeper and wider than any video, article, or book about the identity of Satoshi Nakamoto. Believe me, I've gone down that rabbit hole. Why should we care who Satoshi Nakamoto is? Many argue we don't need to know who Satoshi Nakamoto is because: Knowing his identity could taint the "immaculate conception" of Bitcoin because we might learn that Satoshi Nakamoto was an asshole. We should respect Satoshi Nakamoto's right to privacy. He obviously wanted to be pseudonymous, so let him be. If Satoshi Nakamoto is alive, it would imbue him with too much power, especially over the Bitcoin protocol.  I strongly disagree with this lack of curiosity. Why? There's a chance that in the 25th century, historians will consider Bitcoin one of the top 10 inventions of all time. I'm not saying that Bitcoin will be around in the 25th century, but something like it will exist and be the global currency, and historians will link its existence to Bitcoin. In 2001, Arthur C. Clarke predicted that by 2016, "All existing currencies are abolished. A universal currency is adopted based on the 'megawatt hour.'" Eight years before Clarke's prediction, Bitcoin was created. Although Clarke was wrong about other currencies being abolished,  Bitcoin's value is loosely correlated with its energy consumption. I explain why Bitcoin is worth anything. Consider the Top 10 Inventions and Their Inventors Imagine if we didn't know who these inventors were: The Printing Press - Johannes Gutenberg (c. 1440): This invention revolutionized communication, allowing for the mass production of books and the widespread dissemination of knowledge, leading to the Renaissance and the Scientific Revolution. The Electric Light Bulb - Thomas Edison (1879): While others experimented with electric lighting, Edison created a practical, long-lasting, and commercially viable incandescent light bulb, which transformed society by extending the day and enabling new industries. The Telephone - Alexander Graham Bell (1876): The telephone revolutionized long-distance communication, enabling people to speak to each other across vast distances in real time. The Steam Engine - James Watt (1778): Watt's improvements to earlier steam engines significantly increased their efficiency, powering the Industrial Revolution and leading to the mechanization of factories, transportation, and other industries. The Automobile - Karl Benz (1885): Benz is credited with creating the first practical automobile powered by an internal combustion engine, ushering in the age of personal transportation and reshaping urban and rural life. Alternating Current (AC) Electrical System - Nikola Tesla (late 1880s): While Edison championed direct current (DC), Tesla's work on AC made it possible to transmit electricity over long distances, laying the groundwork for modern electrical grids. The Airplane - Orville and Wilbur Wright (1903): The Wright brothers achieved the first successful controlled, powered flight of a heavier-than-air aircraft, fundamentally changing travel, commerce, and warfare. Penicillin - Alexander Fleming (1928): Fleming's discovery of the first antibiotic revolutionized medicine by providing a cure for many bacterial infections, saving millions of lives. The Internet / World Wide Web - Vint Cerf and Bob Kahn (Internet, 1970s) & Tim Berners-Lee (World Wide Web, 1989): These inventions created a global network of information and communication, transforming almost every aspect of modern society, from business and education to personal life. The Computer - Charles Babbage (early 19th century): Babbage's designs for the "Analytical Engine" laid the theoretical groundwork for modern computers. Later, inventors like John Atanasoff, Alan Turing, and others developed the first electronic and programmable computers. Imagine if we had no clue who invented penicillin or the telephone. Wouldn't historians do their best to figure that out, especially since they were recent and impactful inventions? Would you just shrug your shoulders and say, "Who cares? My telephone works." Sure, many wouldn't give a shit. However, for other, more curious minds, we'd like to know.  Major Inventions with Unknown Inventors Here are four major inventions whose creator is a mystery: The Wheel: The invention of the wheel is one of the most important technological advancements in human history, enabling transportation and mechanization. Archaeological evidence suggests it originated in Mesopotamia around 3500 BC, but there is no record of who first conceived of it. The challenge wasn't just creating the wheel itself, but also the wheel-and-axle system, which required precise engineering. Writing: The development of writing systems enabled the permanent storage and transmission of information, transforming human society. The earliest known writing system, cuneiform, emerged in Sumer (ancient Mesopotamia) around 3400 BC. However, like the wheel, it was likely the result of a gradual process of development by many different people, not the work of a single inventor. Fire making: Some person probably rubbed two sticks together, and the rest is history. Since we can't know who that individual was, it would still be fascinating to know where it started and if it was developed in more than one place independently, like Calculus.  Bitcoin: Yeah, it's a major invention. It's been the best-performing asset since 2010, it's worth more than any company, and Satoshi Nakamoto is the wealthiest person ever. It has sparked a multi-trillion-dollar industry in just 15 years. So, yes, it's important, and yet we don't know who created it. Verdict: 10 out of 10 stars! Admittedly, I'm a Bitcoin fan who has produced many videos and articles about the first cryptocurrency, so I'm biased. Still, if you love a perplexing mystery, you will love trying to solve this one. The good news is that we haven't solved it yet.  My Satoshi Nakamoto Fantasy There's a good chance that Satoshi Nakamoto is around my age. If so, he also has a 30-year life expectancy.  I hope that in 2050, a video appears on the Internet that shows an old man who says, "I am Satoshi Nakamoto. To prove it, I will do what no Satoshi pretender has been able to do: move the 'Satoshi' coins that have been dormant since I mined them in 2009." He records himself and his computer screen, and with a few clicks and keyboard taps, the transactions get broadcast onto the Bitcoin blockchain for all to see.    Next, he says, "I am donating my one million bitcoins to the Bitcoin Core for ongoing maintenance and to the following charities." Or perhaps he'll use the one million Bitcoins to create a Bitcoin node on the Moon. Or perhaps he will "burn" his Bitcoin, reducing the total BTC supply to 20 million coins, not 21 million. Regardless, I hope Nakamoto will finally unmask himself, just like Mark Felt (aka Deep Throat) did when he was 91 (he died at 95).  Yeah, this fantasy is unlikely, but we can dream, can't we?
