HBO Documentary Claims to Reveal Bitcoin Creator Satoshi Nakamoto on October 8

Oct 3, 2024, 05:45 PM

A new HBO documentary titled 'Money Electric: The Bitcoin Mystery' claims to reveal the true identity of Bitcoin's pseudonymous creator, Satoshi Nakamoto. The documentary, created by Cullen Hoback, who previously exposed the authors of the QAnon conspiracy theory, is set to premiere on October 8 on HBO at 2 a.m. CET (Tuesday, 9 p.m. EST). The film's claim, if accepted, could have significant implications for global financial markets and potentially influence the US presidential election. Despite the documentary's bold assertions, there is skepticism within the cryptocurrency community about the veracity of the claims. Critics argue that definitive proof of Nakamoto's identity would require cryptographic evidence, which the documentary may not provide.
