Adam Back Criticizes Logic of Satoshi Documentary..."Enough with the fakes"

Claims made by a documentary purporting to reveal the identity of Satoshi Nakamoto, the founder of Bitcoin (BTC), are losing credibility.

According to cryptocurrency media outlet U.Today on April 24 (local time), Blockstream CEO Adam Back directly refuted the conclusions of a recently aired documentary tracing Satoshi Nakamoto. Back is a key figure who communicated directly with Satoshi during the early days of Bitcoin's development.

Back pointed out that the activity timeline of the individual identified in the documentary does not match Satoshi's actual records. An analysis of the timestamps on Satoshi's emails and forum posts clearly reveals a specific regional sleep pattern. Back emphasized, "Time zone differences are one of the hardest data points to fake."

Back criticized the evidence presented by the documentary as fragmented and containing significant logical leaps. He argued that merely based on technical similarities or overlapping early activity periods, a specific individual cannot be definitively identified as the founder. He also added that Satoshi was extremely meticulous about maintaining security and anonymity.

With this rebuttal, the controversy surrounding the identity of Bitcoin's founder has once again fallen into a labyrinth. Back himself was previously mentioned as a Satoshi candidate but has consistently denied it. Back argues that the technological value and decentralized spirit of Bitcoin are more important than Satoshi's identity.

The cryptocurrency industry is focusing more on the stable operation of the network than on verifying the founder's true identity. Satoshi's identity remains shrouded in mystery, and the movement of the approximately 1.1 million BTC he is presumed to hold has also not been detected. The founder's anonymity is the final piece that completes Bitcoin's decentralized value.
