Len Sassaman, Adam Back, Nick Szabo Are Polymarket Favorites To Be Named Satoshi Nakamoto By HBO Documentary Tonight

Len
Sassaman,
Adam
Back,
and
Nick
Szabo
are
favorites
on
Polymarket
to
be
revealed
as
enigmatic
Bitcoin
creator
Satoshi
Nakamoto
in
an
HBO
documentary
tonight.

The


HBO
documentary,
“Money
Electric:
The
Bitcoin
Mystery,”
will
air
tonight
at
9:00
p.m.
ET.


Cullen
Hoback,
the
investigative
filmmaker
behind
the
documentary,
teased
that
Nakamoto’s
true
identity
may
finally
be
revealed
in
documentary.

Slim
Odds
That
Elon
Musk
Or
Craig
Wright
Might
Be
Satoshi
Nakamoto

A


market

titled,
“Who
will
HBO
doc
identify
as
Satoshi”
has
been
created
on
Polymarket
in
the
build
up
to
the
upcoming
film.
As
of
2:40
a.m.
EST,
more
than
$13
million
has
been
wagered
on
the
decentralized
platform.

Sassaman
is
currently
the
favorite,
with
the
odds
of
him
being
revealed
as
Bitcoin’s
elusive
creator
standing
at
15%.
Back
is
in
second
place
with
more
than
12%
of
the
votes,
while
Szabo’s
odds
stand
at
10%.

There
is
also
speculation
that
tech
billionaire
Elon
Musk
is
the
creator
of
Bitcoin.
However,
his
odds
stand
at
less
than
1%.
Despite
the
small
chance,
more
than
$925K
has
been
wagered
on
Musk. 

Alongside
Musk
is


Craig
Wright.
For
several
years,
Wright
had
claimed
to
be
the
individual
behind
Bitcoin
and
initiated
a
series
of
legal
cases
against
developers
and
firms
who
used
Bitcoin’s
technology,
claiming
copyright
infringement.

But
a
UK
court
found
that
he
was
not
the
creator,
and
Wright
was
required
to
publicly
state
that
he
is
not
Satoshi
Nakamoto.

A
flurry
of
meme
coins

have
made
their
way
to

creator.

An
old
tweet
from
Sassaman’s
wife
that
she
says
she
doesn’t
think
her
husband
is
Satoshi
Nakamoto
has
resurfaced
online,
casting
doubt
on
his
involvement
in
Bitcoin’s
creation.

She
also
said
that
she
was
never
interviewed
for
the
upcoming
documentary.
Despite
this,
Sassaman
remains
the
favorite.
