It's wild to me that companies that ones discredited crypto have now adopted it simply because of it's popularity. It goes to show you just how shallow and profit hungry all of these companies are.

HBO is coming out with a new series that says they have finally unmasked who Satoshi bitcoins creator is. But the real question is, do people really even want to know or care anymore? For myself I could care less who the creator is. If they didn't want to come out and say by now then they clearly don't care to ever be known or are now dead. (which if they are dead means all of that bitcoin in that wallet could be locked up forever further reducing the supply of bitcoin overall)

There's been many attempts of this from people and companies to build shows around such things all of which haven't faired well in terms of viewership or really getting anywhere.

Heavy pushes from Wright over the last few years attempted to prove he was Satoshi the creator of bitcoin only to go through thousands of days of court hearings just for a U.K judge to say he wasn't Satoshi.

So who is he or she?

Does anyone really know?

There's clues for sure but they are always shrouded behind usernames and online names making us all wonder if anyone ever will know who this person is.

This HBO documentary goes like at 9pm ET on October 9th.

Spoilers Below

So far it's reported that Len Sassaman is the person that created bitcoin.

This person was born in Pottstown PA in 1980 and died in July 2011 in Flemish Brabant, Belgium at the age of 31. Again that could mean 1.1 million bitcoin is locked up in a wallet forever further reducing the possible supply of bitcoin.

Len's wiki page can be found here https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Len_Sassaman

It will be interesting to see if this is really the creator of Bitcoin and if so I'd have to say I actully respect the man. Base on his background it seems like this could be a very real possibility.
