ChainCatcher news, according to Cointelegraph, Canadian cryptographer Peter Todd has been forced into hiding after the HBO documentary "Money Electric: The Bitcoin Mystery" claimed he is the Bitcoin founder Satoshi Nakamoto.Todd denied this claim, stating that documentary director Cullen Hoback used misleading evidence, putting him at risk of safety threats. Todd emphasized that such accusations are not only incorrect but could also lead to dangerous actions such as kidnapping and robbery. Nevertheless, Hoback believes that revealing Satoshi's identity is of great significance, but the community is not convinced by this assertion.

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.

ChainCatcher news, according to Cointelegraph, the producer of the HBO documentary "Money Electric: The Bitcoin Mystery," Cullen Hobak, presented his assembled evidence to Peter Todd and Blockstream founder Adam Back, concluding that Peter Todd is Satoshi Nakamoto.The documentary ends with a quote from Peter Todd: "Yes, I am Satoshi Nakamoto." However, this admission by Peter Todd does not specifically prove that this Canadian developer is the inventor of Bitcoin. Peter Todd cites the phrase "I am Satoshi Nakamoto" to support the privacy of the true inventor.Peter Todd has publicly denied being the creator of Bitcoin and has questioned Hobak's conclusion, as clips from the documentary leaked online before its premiere, seemingly pointing to him as Satoshi Nakamoto.

ChainCatcher message, BitMEX Research stated in its analysis of the HBO documentary on the identity of Satoshi Nakamoto that the "block space war" presented in the documentary includes criticisms from Bitcoin.com co-founder Roger Ver towards former Bitcoin Core developer Peter Todd for supporting small blocks.The former indicated that in the leaked "John Dillion" emails, the latter was working for a three-letter agency to implement the Replace By Fee plan. However, the emails indicate that John Dillion did not collaborate with intelligence personnel when dealing with Todd.In this regard, BitMEX Research believes that the documentary attempts to present these nonsensical claims as evidence that Todd is Satoshi Nakamoto, despite having no relation to Satoshi Nakamoto.
