🚨 Did this criminal mastermind create Bitcoin?

Technology

Who is Satoshi Nakamoto, the mysterious mastermind behind Bitcoin? According to a new HBO documentary, the answer is Peter Todd. "Who?" I hear readers asking. Todd is unknown outside the crypto world. However, he is renowned within it. A Bitcoin core developer who has played a major role in improving the cryptocurrency’s security and scalability, Todd is a legitimate expert in cryptography and decentralized systems. The Canadian has been a vocal figure in privacy, security, and blockchain governance debates. However, I argue HBO misses the mark — and badly at that. Todd himself denies the claim, and his denials make sense when you look at other candidates.
