Peter Todd Denies He is Satoshi Nakamoto as claimed by HBO Documentary

As an experienced analyst with years of following the crypto market, I find myself intrigued by this latest twist in the Satoshi Nakamoto saga. Peter Todd, a respected Bitcoin Core Developer, has once again denied being the elusive creator of Bitcoin, a claim made by HBO’s documentary “Money Electric: The Bitcoin Mystery.


Shortly following HBO’s broadcast of their much-hyped documentary “Money Electric: The Bitcoin Mystery,” which implicated developer Peter Todd as a potential candidate for the Satoshi Nakamoto pseudonym, the enigmatic creator of Bitcoin, Todd swiftly addressed these accusations on his platform ‘X’ (previously known as Twitter), vehemently denying HBO’s assertions.

Through multiple posts on his verified ‘X’ Twitter account, Bitcoin Core Developer Todd has stated publicly that he is not Satoshi Nakamoto. However, it was suggested in an HBO documentary that Todd played a significant role in creating the Bitcoin whitepaper and the underlying blockchain technology.

I’m not Satoshi.

Prior to the broadcast of the HBO documentary “Money Electric: The Bitcoin Enigma,” it’s said that a segment from the program was leaked online, featuring the documentary maker, Cullen Hoback, seemingly asserting that Bitcoin core developer Peter Todd is in fact, Satoshi Nakamoto.

Furthermore, Peter asserted on ‘X’ that it seemed plausible that a journalist might have disclosed the clip prior to the airing of the HBO documentary at 9 pm on October 8.

It’s possible, considering the pre-release screenings given to several reporters, that one of them may have shared snippets. This action could potentially lead to termination… Therefore, it seems Cullen might be attempting to generate excitement.
