Elon Musk’s Satoshi Theory Might Be Proved True This Week

As a seasoned crypto investor with over two decades of experience under my belt, I’ve seen the landscape evolve from the fringes to mainstream acceptance. The identity of Satoshi Nakamoto has been a long-standing enigma that has fueled countless debates and theories within our community.


The well-known American computer scientist, Nick Szabo, is currently leading the race as the likely creator of Bitcoin (Satoshi) on Polymarket, just before HBO unveils its upcoming revelation.

As of now, approximately a quarter (25%) of Polymarker’s wagering participants anticipate that Nick Szabo will be unmasked as Satoshi Nakamoto in the upcoming documentary, scheduled for release on Tuesday.

According to U.Today, it was initially believed that cryptographer Len Sassaman was the front-runner in the community. Sadly, Sassaman, a renowned scholar, took his own life soon after Satoshi Nakamoto disappeared.

Szabo has consistently been recognized as one of the leading contenders for being Satoshi, the mysterious creator of Bitcoin. He gained prominence for inventing “bit gold,” a digital currency conceptualized in the late 1990s. Additionally, he proposed the idea of smart contracts around the same period. In 2013, researcher Skye Grey told TechCrunch that Szabo is believed to be the creator of Bitcoin due to text analysis and other evidence, such as the absence of citations to Szabo’s work by the pseudonymous Satoshi persona.

Notably, Tesla CEO Elon Musk himself has floated the idea that Szabo is Satoshi.    

As a curious crypto investor, I’ve come across intriguing evidence linking a renowned computer scientist to the enigmatic figure of Satoshi Nakamoto. However, in multiple instances, this individual has unequivocally and emphatically dismissed such speculations, leaving me questioning the truth behind the claims.
