Shaurya is the Deputy Managing Editor for the Data & Tokens team, focusing on decentralized finance, markets, on-chain data, and governance across all major and minor blockchains.
A documentary by Cullen Hoback suggested that Bitcoin developer Peter Todd might be Satoshi Nakamoto, based on his early interest in cryptography, technical skills, and a supposed forum slip-up, though Todd denies these claims.
Todd was revealed as Nakamoto in the documentary shot by Cullen Hoback, who previously identified the face behind the QAnon conspiracy. Todd, however, denied being Nakamoto in an email to CoinDesk. The documentary provided its strongest clue through a 2010 public forum exchange where Todd inadvertently seemed to reply to a post as himself instead of the mysterious Bitcoin creator, suggesting a potential slip-up in identity. Hoback posited this as evidence that Todd might be Nakamoto, although the documentary stopped short of making a definitive claim.
