Every few years, the same mystery gets recycled with a new headline.
In 2010, the narrative pointed toward Hal Finney. By 2012, attention shifted to Nick Szabo. In 2014, the media chased Dorian Nakamoto. 2016 brought Craig Wright into the spotlight. In 2018, speculation leaned toward Adam Back. Then came Jack Dorsey in 2020, followed by Elon Musk in 2022. By 2024, the theory machine targeted Peter Todd. And now, in 2026, a new name is being dragged into the story.
The pattern is impossible to ignore. Every cycle needs a new face, a new theory, and a fresh wave of doubt. The identity of Satoshi changes, but the goal remains the same: distraction.
If history is any guide, another round of FUD will arrive right on schedule. See you in 2028.
