DHS claimed to have interviewed Bitcoin creator
Murphy said the lawsuit was prompted by statements made during a financial intelligence conference in 2019.
At that event, a DHS official reportedly claimed the agency had discovered Nakamoto’s identity and interviewed him face-to-face in California. Three other individuals were present during that meeting, each of whom played a role in the development of Bitcoin.

The crypto attorney now wants access to internal DHS documents, emails, and notes that could confirm whether such an interview ever took place. He argued that if the encounter were real, it would almost certainly have left behind a paper trail. His legal action aims to bring those records to the public’s attention.
Meanwhile, Murphy called on DHS Secretary Christy Noem to release the information voluntarily. However, if the DHS declines to release the files, the crypto attorney says he’s prepared to continue the case until the truth comes out.
Who is Satoshi?
This legal action is the latest twist in the decade-long search for Satoshi Nakamoto, whose mystery has sparked countless theories, debates, and investigations.
In recent times, the theories around Satoshi’s identity have ranged from plausible to outlandish.
