In September 2014, an email from Jeffrey Epstein lists a mysterious attendee for UN Climate Week: “satoshi (bitcoin).”
This appears 11 days after Satoshi Nakamoto’s email and forum accounts were hacked, making the timing extremely suspicious.
Just months earlier, Newsweek falsely identified Dorian Nakamoto as $BITCOIN ’s creator, ruining his life. Meanwhile, Epstein was funding Bitcoin Core developers, hosting crypto meetings with major power players, and positioning himself as an influencer in crypto policy.
Possible identities for “Satoshi” on Epstein’s schedule include:
Dorian Nakamoto, vulnerable after being exposed
Craig Wright, seeking legitimacy
Someone using the hacked Satoshi accounts
Adding to the mystery, Bitcoin pioneer Hal Finney—long rumored to be Satoshi or connected to him—had died only a month before.
Epstein seems to have been inserting himself at the crossroads of money, technology, and political power, and the appearance of “Satoshi” on his calendar came at a moment when Bitcoin’s creator was most exposed and most valuable.
