Cullen Hoback, director of the HBO crypto documentary Money Electric: The Bitcoin Mystery, claimed in a recent post to have found the identity of Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto. Along with the news, he published the trailer for the documentary, revealing that his absence was a cover for someone else's. This fantastic news is causing a stir in the cryptocurrency sector.
Satoshi Nakamoto's identity has been claimed by many people before. One of the most prominent names among them is Australian scientist Craig Wright, who has consistently claimed that he is the creator of Bitcoin. Recently, he was presented before British prosecutors on charges of breach of oath. In addition, recently users on the crypto betting site Polymarket have put up the majority of their money to identify Leonard Harris "Len" Sassaman as the creator of Bitcoin. It is worth noting that Sassaman died in 2011, the same year that Nakamoto stopped posting on BitcoinTalk.

Back, a well-known name in the crypto community, has played an important role in laying the ideological foundation for Bitcoin. However, Back has repeatedly made it clear that he did not create Bitcoin. While many consider Sassaman to be the real creator. However, the director of the HBO Crypto Documentary has not confirmed or denied any potential name. He has promised to announce the 'specific name' on Tuesday, which has increased the curiosity in the crypto community even more. Thus, with the upcoming release of Money Electric, both excitement and curiosity about the identity of Satoshi Nakamoto are increasing.
