Search for the true identity of the creator of bitcoin.
The news about the mysterious bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto, who received almost 26 bitcoins worth over $ 1 million more than 10 years after his disappearance, has caused widespread discussion. The transaction to a wallet created by Nakamoto, known as Genesis, the first in the history of the bitcoin network, fueled rumors that the creator of bitcoin "woke up".
Conor Grogan, director of bitcoin and cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase, suggested that either Satoshi "woke up" by buying 27 bitcoins through Binance and transferring them to his wallet, or someone "just burned a million dollars." Grogan also suggested that it might be part of "some weird ETF marketing campaign," given Wall Street's interest in the highly anticipated bitcoin ETF.
The latest transaction increased the value of bitcoins on the Genesis wallet, which originally held 50 bitcoins created from the first bitcoin block, to almost 100, worth about $ 4 million. The identity of Satoshi Nakamoto, who disappeared in late 2010 following the publication of a bitcoin whitepaper in 2008, has been the subject of heated debate. His name is associated with various programmers and developers.
If Satoshi Nakamoto is still alive, although it is not even known whether it is a single person or a group, it is assumed that he controls more than 1 million bitcoins, valued at almost $ 50 billion to date. This puts him in the top 25 richest people in the world according to Forbes estimates.
