Satoshi Nakamoto’s identity has perhaps been the best kept secret of the whole crypto-verse. Since the creation of Bitcoin, the anonymous character chose anonymity as a way to protect himself and his creation.
From the moment he decided to “move onto other things” the community was in charge of the project. However, in the absence of a central figure there have been certain conflicts and speculations, not only as to which direction the project should best take, but who Satoshi Nakamoto is (or was).
One of those who have claimed responsibility for creating Bitcoin is Craig Wright. This man claims to be Satoshi Nakamoto and recently filed a series of legal complaints against a group of media and people who don’t believe he’s telling the truth because he hasn’t been able to prove it so far.
1/ So I got my letter from Craig Wright and @CalvinAyre. This is what they are sending out to people, now you can all see.
I absolutely reject their requirements.

This action provoked the irritation of much of the crypto-verse, from crypto users to truly influential people like CZ and John McAfee. While CZ got fed up with CSW’s toxic actions, calling him a fraud; John McAfee remarked that he is 100% sure that Craig Wright is not Satoshi Nakamoto:
Enough is enough! There at least a dozen crypto adherents who know the true identity of Satoshi. I can assure you, 100%, it is NOT Craig Wright. This absurd claim of Craig's is incomprehensible. Mr wright: Have you no shame? Seriously sir! Have you no shame?
— John McAfee (@officialmcafee) April 16, 2019The controversial tweet generated a lot of speculation in the community. The only way McAfee could be absolutely sure Craig Wright was lying is by knowing the real Satoshi Nakamoto.
John McAfee is not afraid of threats from Calvin Ayre and CSW, and he doesn’t seem to care if he gets “The Letter.” In the following tweets he continued criticizing CSW for not proving he is Satoshi. BSV got its part too.
However, the situation escalated the next day. McAfee left nothing to the imagination and claimed to know the true identity of Satoshi Nakamoto. The renowned cybersecurity expert then began a process in which he would slowly offer clues about Satoshi’s true identity.
The first clue, if true, eliminates the leading conspiracy theory, but explains that Satoshi Nakamoto is actually a kind of organization, where several people had different responsibilities. Of this group, an American (or at least one person living in the United States) was responsible for writing the Whitepaper.
The "Who is Satoshi?" Mystery must end! First: It is NOT the CIA nor any agency of any world government. It IS a collection of people, but the white paper was written by one man, who currentky resides in the US. If he does not come forward these narrowings will continue.
— John McAfee (@officialmcafee) April 17, 2019In the following tweet he said he is this practice until the author of the whitepaper revealed himself, or until the community could discover who he is, based on McAfee’s clues.
I protected the identity of Satoshi. It's time, though, that this be put to bed. Imposters claim to be him, we are spending time and energy in search of him – It's a waste. Every day I will narrow down the identity of Satoshi until he reveals himself, or I reveal him.
— John McAfee (@officialmcafee) April 17, 2019What We Can Conclude After reading John McAfee’s tweets (both the ones on his TL and the replies provided to others):
1) There is not one Satoshi. However, in this article when we say “Satoshi” we are talking about the person who wrote the BTC whitepaper, and not the person(s) who developed BTC, wrote the wp, interacted with users, etc.2) A person residing in USA wrote the Whitepaper (This is the “Satoshi” the community is talking about)3)The person who wrote the Whitepaper is male4) Satoshi is not John McAfee5) Satoshi is not Nick Szabo6) Satoshi is not Craig Wright7) Satoshi is not Elon Musk8) Satoshi is not the CIA9) Satoshi is not a government agency10) Satoshi not French11) Satoshi doesn’t follow McAfee on Twitter12) Satoshi still has access to the original BTC wallet13) Satoshi doesn’t want to be outed14) Satoshi is alive and right now doesn’t have any influence on Bitcoin15) Satoshi doesn’t have brown hairFinally, McAfee concluded his first wave of “clues” with an epic ending, as always:
How do I know about Satoshi?
Yes, I drink, use drugs, chase women, run from the law – which I have done since I was 19. But it does not obviate the fact that I created a great company whose focus was stopping hackers. I had to know hacking. I am still John Fucking McAfee,
