However, Todd has publicly denied the accusations, calling them far-fetched.​

The documentary explores Bitcoin’s rise and impact on global finance, while also delving into the mystery of Nakamoto’s identity. Speculation has been rampant, with Todd being the latest in a series of suspects, including other prominent cryptographers like Adam Back and Len Sassaman​.

However, Todd refuted the claims, asserting that the documentary’s conclusions are not based on concrete evidence.

He argued that if he were Nakamoto, he would have destroyed any proof to avoid being identified, adding that the constant speculation around Satoshi’s identity puts individuals in danger.

Bitcoin enthusiasts eagerly awaited the documentary to see how the community reacts to these fresh allegations.

The mystery of Satoshi Nakamoto remains one of the most intriguing in the world of cryptocurrency, with implications that could shake the industry if the findings were widely accepted.​
