The creator of Dorian Nakamoto as Satoshi Nakamoto first started in the publication in the newsweek in the 2014 magazine point out the Dorian Nakamoto as the creator of Bitcoin . This announcement by Leah McGrath pious man ( as a reporter ) caused a stir in the crypto world and vast tech community , because it was the greatest effort and first time a traditional publication was prepared to recognize the creator of Bitcoin .
An interesting fact that further appreciated the thinking of many people , was an interview McGrath had with Dorian . When, Doreen Nakamoto said that he was no longer associated with the bitcoin and he left it all to other people. Dorian later denied the statement, saying it was a "misunderstanding". Despite the uproar, Doreen Nakamoto has continued to deny any participant with the cryptocurrency bitcoin.

WHAT IS THE CURRENT VALUE OF BITCOIN? CALCULATE THE USD VALUE OF ONE SATOSHI OF THE CURRENT VALUE
The current value of the Bitcoin.
| Units of Measurements | Symbols | Value in numericals |
|---|---|---|
| Mega Bitcoin | MBTC | 1,000,000 |
| Kilo Bitcoin | kBTC | 1000 |
| hecto bitcoin | hBTC | 100 |
| deca bitcoin | daBTC | 10 |
| bitcoin | BTC | 1 |
| deci bitcoin | dBTC | 0.1 |
| centi bitcoin | cBTC | 0.01 |
| milli bitcoin | mBTC | 0.001 |
| micro bitcoin | uAT | 0.000001 |
| satoshi | sAT | 0.00000001 |
| milli Satoshi | mSAT | 0.00000000001 |
▪︎To calculate the value of USD Satoshi of the current value:
At the time of making this post 1 BTC is equal to $38,112.58 .
As we have seen the value in the above table :
1 Satoshi = 1/100000000 × 1 BTC
1 BTC = $38,112.58
1 Satoshi = 1/100000000 × 38,112.58
1 Satoshi = 0.0003811258
1 Satoshi = 0.000381( the result up to 3 significant figures )
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
The current value of Ether (ETH) at the time of performing this task according to coinmarketCap .
As the time of making this post , the current value of ether .
As we can see above the using value .
1 Gwei = 1/1000000000 × 1 Eth
1 Eth = $2,476 . 26
1 Gwei = 1/1000000000 × 2,476.26
1 Gwei = 0.00000258824
1 Gwei = 0.00000247 (to 3 s.f)
TRANSFER 0.001 STEEM TO AN ACCOUNT. THEN SEND 0.0001 STEEM. SHOW WHAT HAPPENED AND STATE WHY.
I shall be transferring my 0.001 steem to the respected professor's account . First of all , we have to loging our steem wallet account . After logged in the wallet account , now the display will be like as
We choose the transfer button for transfering our steems .
After putting the all inputs , we should click on the OK.
Now we can see the transferred steem in the history for confirmation .
Transferred successful .
Conclusion
We have learnt a lot of things from this interesting lecture .
Personally, I would like to point out that the idea of not revealing the name of the founder of Bitcoin is unacceptable,Because this project has really made a positive difference in the financial markets around the world
And someone must be available to take credit and respond,
But then again, I'm sure there could be a good reason, who knows. All the same, we admire you (the founder of Bitcoin), whatever and wherever you are. I have learnt many of things from this lecture especially i taught about to find the value of 1 Satoshi . Except this i read about the founder of Bitcoin . Now i want to say thank you to dear professor @awesononso . Thanks a lot professor .
Thank You
Best Regards
