Hal Finney was Satoshi Nakamoto

in bitcoin •  7 years ago  (edited)

Why would Hal email himself to debug crash logs? Hal received the first ever bitcoin transaction from Satoshi and from a developers point of view it would only make sense to try something (for the first time) by yourself. (perhaps by sending BTC from one address to another). However, the linked emails pretty much make it clear that Hal (RIP) wasn't Satoshi. Unless he had a multiple personality issue and was talking to himself.

Did he know who Satoshi was? Yes, Hal probably did know but he's dead.

Intereting post but i don't believe Hal was the bitcoin creator. I have written a post about the mystery of Satoshi and some of my ideas on who he/she/they are;
