$BTC Satoshi Nakamoto is the mysterious and pseudonymous creator of Bitcoin, the world’s first decentralized cryptocurrency. In 2008, Satoshi published the Bitcoin whitepaper, outlining a peer-to-peer electronic cash system without the need for trusted third parties. In 2009, Satoshi released the first version of the Bitcoin software and mined the genesis block. Despite active communication with early developers, Satoshi disappeared from public view in 2011, leaving behind a legacy that sparked the global crypto revolution. The true identity of Satoshi remains unknown—whether an individual or a group. Satoshi’s estimated holdings of over 1 million BTC have never been moved, adding to the enduring mystery and influence of this iconic figure.
