Satoshi’s Motivation

An unforeseen twist in our podcast mystery adventure is that the many encryptions Satoshi Nakamoto made during his creation of Bitcoin not only are fundamental to the cryptocurrency's success, they also hold the key to solving the most enigmatic identity riddle of our time.

I'll help you connect a few early dots about Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto you never knew existed and give you a good idea of where we’ve been, where we are, and where we’re going in order to solve Bitcoin’s biggest mystery.

Why the numerous efforts to identify Satoshi solely based on his written words all failed, what Satoshi told me about why he was meticulous about his distinct writing style, and the one undeniable commonality Tesla and Twitter billionaire Elon Musk shares with Bitcoin’s creator.

The relentless persistence of my business partner Michael Jones in 2019 led to his discovery of an AnnurcaCoin press release and video Satoshi created in 2016 to end the possibility of anyone losing a wallet. It became our Rosetta Stone.

Before I met Satoshi Nakamoto, I researched what little I could find from early Bitcoin developers about his mannerisms or personality. They fit hand in glove with three characteristics Satoshi consistently showed while communicating with me in 2019-2020. He was extremely shy, obsessively secretive, and exceptionally sincere.

I examine the motive Satoshi expressed to me for his return, unlike any claimed by legion of impostors he calls muppets - British slang for stupid people. Hint: It wasn’t for fame or approval from the public or the media. And it wasn’t for approval from the crypto community which he told me has miserably failed to innovate or take his vision to the next level.

Learn how one erroneous word I mistakenly added to a newsletter turned out to be best edit I’ve made in my six-decade professional career and proved Satoshi Nakamoto’s true identity to me beyond a reasonable doubt. I also share how this entire mystery adventure began with the placement of a blind ad for freelance help.

Dorian Satoshi Nakamoto was incorrectly identified in a March 2014 Newsweek cover story as the man who created Bitcoin. It turns out he did, in fact, play a role in the Bitcoin story. Just not the one Newsweek was looking for. I also share specifics of why amateur speculation and unfounded opinion are worthless in the search for Satoshi.

I present evidence beyond a reasonable doubt where Satoshi Nakamoto lived in 2008-2011 when he created Bitcoin, evidence that’s impossible to dispute, disprove, or deny. Hint: It wasn’t Australia, where Craig Wright – the George Santos of Bitcoin – allegedly said he mined his bitcoins.

I share how self-professed Satoshi and Australian computer scientist Craig Wright – the George Santos of Bitcoin - made maliciously unfounded comments about me when my book Finding Satoshi was published. Wright threatened “criminal charges” against me. What’s he going to accuse me of, stealing his podium so I can tell the truth?
