FBI Might Know Satoshi’s Identity, Tech Entrepreneur Says

As a seasoned researcher with extensive experience in disinformation analysis and tech entrepreneurship, I find this latest development surrounding the identity of Satoshi Nakamoto intriguing. My interest in uncovering the truth about Bitcoin’s creator stems from my fascination with cryptocurrencies and the impact they have on our digital world.


Disinformation analyst and tech entrepreneur Dave Troy has taken to the X social media network to reveal that the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) has provided its response to yet another Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request regarding the identity of tech entrepreneur Satoshi Nakamoto. 

As an analyst, I’m affirming that in their recent statement, the FBI has reiterated and reinforced their belief that the enigmatic figure behind Bitcoin, Satoshi Nakamoto, might indeed be a person not directly involved in the project, a third party.

As noted by Troy, this response is typically given when inquiring about foreign nationals.  

Troy thinks it’s possible that the FBI is aware of Satoshi Nakamoto’s true identity but is not willing to admit they have relevant documents about the mysterious Bitcoin inventor.

Alternatively, the FOIA office might not have properly interpreted Troy’s request. 

According to U.Today, the FBI finally spoke up regarding the identity of Satoshi in early August, a response that followed Satoshi’s original query.

Troy aims to gather all the details he can regarding the person behind Bitcoin, by seeking information from the U.S. administration.

For many years now, a multitude of individuals believed to be Satoshi Nakamoto, the creator of Bitcoin, have been debated within the cryptocurrency community. Among them, Hal Finney, who received the first-ever Bitcoin transaction as a computer scientist, has consistently held the number one spot due to several indications that strongly suggest he was the one who initiated it all. Nonetheless, there are certain pieces of evidence that imply Finney might not be Satoshi Nakamoto after all.

According to a report by U.Today, both Satoshi (the unknown creator of Bitcoin) and various U.S. government entities are significant owners of the leading cryptocurrency at present.
