  This is the post the documentary bases much of its evidence on: that Peter Todd forgot to switch back profiles when he was posting as Satoshi.  If true, the biggest mystery of the internet was solved by a classic forum goof

  @CookerFlips @BitMEXResearch I'm not Satoshi.

• @pledditor @pledditor on x

  Just finished watching HBO Satoshi documentary. That was one of the least compelling Satoshi Nakamoto identities I've ever seen. Early on in the documentary, (around 11 minutes in), the narrator suggests the identity of Satoshi should not be known because it could endanger his [i…

  @andrewrchow ... “Todd maintains a divisive presence on Twitter, where he takes extreme right-wing views about issues like migrants in America and Russia's invasion of Ukraine.” I gotta say, it's absolutely hilarious to see my views on Ukraine being portrayed as “extreme right-wi…

  According to Forbes, HBO will say that @peterktodd is Satoshi... The Forbes article states that “a 2010 BitcoinTalk post replying to Satoshi Nakamoto that [Cullen] Hoback believes was accidentally posted using Todd's profile” This is clearly ridiculous! It is just an example of […

  HBO documentary suggests Peter Todd is Satoshi Nakamoto. I disagree. My #1 suspect is Hal Finney. - Diagnosed with ALS in 2009, the same year Bitcoin went live. - One of the first to receive a BTC transaction from Satoshi. - Expert in cryptography - Active in the BTC [video]

  if this is your proof that Satoshi was supposedly @peterktodd (who was 25 at the time) @CullenHoback, you don't have it at all. virtually no OG's think it was him. i have participated in countless long discussions about this: no one thinks this. i sincerely hope this isn't it

• @jonsarlin Jon Sarlin on x

  But now Peter Todd is pushing back. In the film, Todd seemingly ironically claims that he is Satoshi (which Hoback later sees as an intentional smokescreen by Todd to hide his true identity). Now in a statement sent to CNN, he flat-out denies it. [image]

  100% its Peter Todd

  Summary of HBO documentary Around 15 minutes of the long film is dedicated to trying to indicate that @peterktodd is Satoshi. The “evidence” for this claim in the film is absolutely pathetic, being both wrong and inconsequential at the same time. Seems they just perhaps added

  HBO says @peterktodd is satoshi and his response was perfect “This is going to be very funny when you put this into the documentary and a bunch of bitcoiners watch it.”

• @timccopeland Tim Copeland on x

  @drewharwell a reason why this is false: If he mistakenly wrote this post under satoshi's account, he wouldn't have adopted satoshi's writing style of using two spaces after a full stop (as he was thinking he was writing under his own) he would have written how he writes, with si…

• @jonsarlin Jon Sarlin on x

  In our interview, I spoke with @CullenHoback about why he isn't concerned about any legal issues. He told me that he's confident in his film and that he gave Peter Todd ample opportunity to contradict his theory. [image]

• @neerajka Neeraj K. Agrawal on x

  The documentary named Peter Todd as Satoshi literally based on them both having the same favorite pizza topping (pineapple and jalepeno)

• @peterktodd Peter Todd on x

  So Craig Wright has come out saying that HBO's documentary is bullshit. On this, I think we should take him at his word. After all, Craig Wright is the world's foremost expert on not being Satoshi. [image]

  my memories of peter todd peter was one of the first people i interacted with on crypto twitter. always very approachable and humble. he kindly retweeted my first ever blog post on smart contracts in december of 2014, in which i had also quoted him, saying that “we don't know

• @kristovatlas @kristovatlas on x

  Watch out for the Gell-Mann Amnesia effect. If you know how wrong this is — as anyone who is familiar with Peter Todd does — consider how wrong documentarians are about every other topic.

• @drewharwell Drew Harwell on x

  News: The HBO filmmaker who chased down Q thinks he knows who bitcoin's mysterious creator Satoshi Nakamoto is - and it's someone most people never suspected, the young crypto geek Peter Todd. Is the documentary right or just the latest to get it wrong? https://www.washingtonpost…

• @jeffjohnroberts Jeff Roberts on x

  I reviewed the new HBO Bitcoin documentary that “reveals” Satoshi to be Peter Todd It's a good film with lots of Bitcoin OGs like @Excellion @jack @adam3us But—like Newsweek before it—HBO gets the Satoshi riddle wrong https://fortune.com/...

• @beaniemaxi @beaniemaxi on x

  I like Peter Todd. I wish he was Satoshi. But this is just sloppy joirnalism. [video]

• @tier10k @tier10k on x

  TLDR: HBO's case for Peter Todd being Satoshi (which he denies): - In 2010, Todd (from a new account) replies to Satoshi on bitcointalk; HBO claims he accidentally finished Satoshi's post from his own account - Both accounts went silent days after - Todd later implemented the

  HBO didn't even identify the most likely candidate in the camera frame.

• @peterktodd Peter Todd on x

  “The level of reaching here rivals QAnon stuff (which is pretty ironic if you know what Cullen's previous documentary was about)” Exactly. The truth is pretty simple: there's hundreds, even thousands of people who could have created Bitcoin. We're not going to find Satoshi.

• @autismcapital @autismcapital on x

  The HBO documentary says that Peter Todd is the creator of Bitcoin. Saved you the watch. Enjoy the rest of your evening! 🫡 [image]

  The fact that we still don't know who invented bitcoin really is a mystery. But I am perpetually extremely skeptical of any attempt to ID them that doesn't account for them leaving literal billions on the table. https://www.bbc.com/...
