New Satoshi Nakamoto Statue Presented in Switzerland As Major Plan B Forum Starts

As a seasoned researcher and crypto enthusiast with over two decades of experience in the ever-evolving digital landscape, I find myself captivated by this recent development in Lugano, Switzerland. The unveiling of a statue dedicated to Satoshi Nakamoto, the enigmatic figure who birthed Bitcoin, is not only a testament to the resilience and adaptability of our community but also a symbol of progress towards a decentralized future.


Renowned cryptocurrency trader Willy Woo shares a picture showing the mayor of Lugano, Switzerland, preparing to reveal a freshly constructed statue of Satoshi Nakamoto. The statue is on the brink of being displayed in this photo.

The monument’s reveal coincides with a two-day Plan B conference in Lugano, focusing on Bitcoin, where prominent figures from the crypto and finance realms serve as key speakers. Notable among them is Nick Szabo, a potential “Satoshi figure,” founder of Blockstream, as well as Adam Back, another potential “Satoshi figure” who previously worked with him and now leads JAN3 as its CEO.

As a crypto enthusiast, I’m eagerly anticipating the event where Julian Assange’s wife Stella and his brother Gabriel Shipton will join, along with the CEO of SkyBridge Capital, Anthony Scaramucci, Tether’s leader Paolo Ardoino, and numerous other influential figures from the crypto sphere. It promises to be an enlightening experience!

These influential figures are gathering in Lugano for a discussion centered around topics such as adopting Bitcoin, economic matters, financial independence, and the importance of free speech, as stated on the conference’s official site.

In 2009, following the global financial turmoil sparked by the U.S.’s mortgage loan market collapse a year prior, Satoshi Nakamoto introduced and released Bitcoin. Notably, Adam Back is mentioned in the white paper associated with this creation, leading some to speculate that he could be Satoshi Nakamoto, as they are said to have exchanged emails prior to the launch of Bitcoin.
