Satoshi Nakamoto: less calm than he seems?
Strength and independence bitcoin are largely based on the cleverly orchestrated anonymity of its founder Satoshi Nakamoto. A primarily ideological desire, which has now turned into a need for security, if we are to believe the experience of Fr Peter Todd recently graced HBO’s “target painted on his back.”.
Because not all mysteries are worth solving. Even more so when it lets you see a a plethora of applicants, each more pitiful than the next attempt to ascend the throne. Special dedication to unbearable Faketoshi and his total exams…
At the same time there is a question riches that this digital ghost considers lost the most famous in the world. Because Satoshi Nakamoto was (almost) the only one bitcoin mining in the early yearswhen it was still reporting 50 BTC per block.
Activity at the beginning of the putative hoarding 600,000 to 1.1 million BTC. This is stored in multiple portfolios created during period 2009/2010. And that’s more specific last year which interests the company researcher BTC analyzer.
