Satoshi Nakam2026-07-02 07:00:14New York Times Suggests Adam Back Is Bitcoin Creator; Back Denies and Crypto Community Remains SkepticalThe New York Times published an investigation claiming British cryptographer Adam Back is the most credible candidate for Satoshi Nakamoto, the pseudonymous creator of Bitcoin. Back denied the claim repeatedly. The investigation relies on textual analysis of old emails and forum posts, focusing on writing patterns like double hyphens and British spelling. However, critics note the lack of documentary proof—no private key demonstration, no wallet communication, and no corroborating witness. Joe Weisenthal expressed doubt, Nicholas Gregory warned of physical danger, and similar past attempts (e.g., the 2024 documentary on Peter Todd) failed to gain traction. Satoshi's Bitcoin holdings are estimated at $73 billion.1800
