There are two article that suggested in 2015 that Steven wright is the man behind the creation of bitcoin which are (Wired and Gizmodo), though some many people did not believe the article because the arrival of the number one online money is still a mystery to every one till today.
He was interviewed by the BBC and he promise that he is going to show that world a verifiable proof that he is the originator of the white paper.

Solution
1 satoshi = 1/100000000 x 1 BTC

1 BTC = $43,806.09

1 satoshi = 1/100000000 x 43,806.09

1 satoshi = $0.0004380609

1 satoshi = $0.000438 (to 3 s.f)

What is the current value of Ether on the day you are performing this task? Calculate the USD value of one Gwei of the current value. (Show full working and to 3 s.f).

Solution

1 Gwei = 1/1000000000 x 1 Ether

1 Ether = $2,971.75

1 Gwei = 1/1000000000 x 2,971.75

1 Gwei = $0.00000297175

1 Gwei = $0.00000297 (to 3 s.f)

We can all see that when I tried to transfer 0.0001 it brought out an error signal, meaning that only 0.001 which is 3.S.F can be after a decimal in steemit, so every blockchain has their calculations and rule guilding it.

CONCLUSION

Finally, for now the founder of the bitcoin white paper is yet to be revealed though some set of people are bring our claims that they are the owner of the bitcoin White paper. The evidence behind their claim are not to valid.
Therefore, investigation is still going on, on who the founder of bitcoin really is.
Thanks to professor @awesononso giving this wonderful lecture.
