Analysis: The HBO documentary believes that Peter Todd is Satoshi Nakamoto based on reasons such as posting habits, spelling patterns, etc

2024-10-09 10:21:31

ChainCatcher message, @tier10k posted on X stating that HBO believes Peter Todd is Satoshi Nakamoto (which he denies) for the following main reasons:

  • In 2010, Todd (from a new account) replied to Satoshi on bitcointalk; HBO claims he accidentally completed Satoshi's post using his own account;
  • A few days later, both accounts were inactive;
  • Todd later deployed the "replace-by-fee" concept discussed in the post;
  • The documentary states that Todd used the pseudonym "John Dillon" to promote RBF;
  • Both used British/Canadian spelling;
  • Satoshi released a timeline, which the documentary claims aligns with a student's timeline, posting more content on weekends;
  • Todd once discussed "sacrificing" Bitcoin; the documentary claims this refers to destroying Satoshi's Bitcoin.
