by Giorgi Kostiuk

a year ago


The identity of Satoshi Nakamoto, the creator of Bitcoin, has long been a mystery. Recently, a new theory has emerged linking Jack Dorsey, the co-founder of Twitter, to the famed pseudonym.

Who is Jack Dorsey?

Jack Dorsey is a prominent tech entrepreneur best known for co-founding Twitter in 2006. He later co-founded Square, now known as Block Inc, in 2009. Dorsey is known for his minimalist lifestyle and strong advocacy for Bitcoin and cryptocurrency technologies.

The Evidence…

The theory suggesting Jack Dorsey is Satoshi Nakamoto is based on a series of coincidences and facts. These include his involvement in the cypherpunks group in 1996, writings about cryptocurrency and pseudonyms in 2003, and numerous date-related coincidences that superficially suggest his involvement in Bitcoin's creation.

Potential Impact

If Jack Dorsey were truly the creator of Bitcoin, the revelation could significantly impact the crypto industry. Cryptocurrency prices might tumble due to fears of Dorsey selling his large Bitcoin holdings. However, these questions currently remain speculative.

While the evidence linking Jack Dorsey to Satoshi Nakamoto seems compelling to some, the new theories remain speculative at this time.
