Elon Musk Created Bitcoin?
Elon Musk a billionaire, a visionary, the owner of companies such as Tesla and SpaceX and overall one of the most inspiring and intriguing figures we have in business today. The meteoric rise of mainstream cryptocurrency popularity, it should be no surprise that the elusive hunt for Satoshi, often referred to as the father of Bitcoin, has led to the theory that Elon Musk is Satoshi Nakamoto.
COULD BE ELON MUSK SATOSHI?
Why Musk is the probable founder of Bitcoin:
1. Technical capabilities: Bitcoin was written by someone with mastery of C++, a language Musk has utilized heavily at SpaceX.
2. Passion for solving global problems: Bitcoin was founded in 2008, the year of the global financial crisis and widespread distaste of banking in general. If there was a time to create a currency for the people, without bank intervention, this was it.
He has publicly stated that he does not personally own any Bitcoin.
Musk doesn’t need the money: Satoshi’s Bitcoins are worth over $8 billion – less than half of Musk’s current estimated net worth of $19.7 billion.
Another Medium blog was published with a theory that Musk invented Bitcoin for future use on Mars.
But we have Arguments Against This Theory:
- 2008 was Musk’s “worst year”: 2008 was a notable year for Musk, who publicly claimed it was his worst year ever due to early challenges with SpaceX and Tesla and his personal finances and relationships in jeopardy.
- Popular opinion is that Musk could never keep a secret this large and would have stepped in already to combat bank and regulatory attempts to destroy the cryptocurrency.
- Musk called Bitcoin “probably a good thing” but referenced its main use as a facilitator to illegal transactions.
WHAT DO YO THINK CAN BE ELON MUSK SATOSHI NAKAMOTO? OR THIS IS ONLY CONSPIRACY THEORY?

No, it's a nice (conspiracy) theory, but it would be just too much. Three reasons which speak against this theory are:
According to "Banking on Bitcoin" (a documentary I'd highly recommend) Satoshi was actually Hal Finney or Nick Szabo or both.
