Musk will leave the Trump administration in the coming weeks, says site
The President of the United States, Donald Trump, told his inner circle, including members of his cabinet, that Elon Musk will leave the administration in the coming weeks, according to the American site "Politico". According to the site, three sources said that Trump and Musk made the decision by consensus. They also stated that the president is satisfied with the billionaire's work as his advisor and head of the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE). Shortly after the article was published, the White House commented on the matter and stated only that Musk would step away from public service when his work at DOGE is completed.
China and Japan have strong cultures in cryptography and technology
Japan has a strong tradition in technological innovation.
China is extremely advanced in cryptography, mathematics, and also had an active community of cryptographers since the 1990s.
Hidden suggestion in the very name 'Bitcoin'
There are theories that say 'Bit' and 'Coin' may have been inspired by terms circulating in Chinese technology forums in the 2000s.
Hypothesis of the group of companies
There is a funny theory that says the name 'SA-TOSHI NA-KA-MO-TO' may come from:
SA: Samsung
TOSHI: Toshiba
NA: Nakamichi
MO: Motorola
A hypothetical combination of these companies would have created Bitcoin. This theory is seen more as a joke/conspiracy, but it became famous.
Attention to censorship and control
If it were a government or a company, there might be a reason to remain anonymous: to avoid political reprisals and control over the invention.
What is more widely accepted today? Most scholars believe that Bitcoin was created by an individual or a small group of cryptographers, most likely linked to the cypherpunk community (a pro-privacy and decentralization movement from the 1990s-2000s).
In other words: it was probably not a large official company, but people who wanted to create money free from States and Banks.
The name Nakamoto is a common Japanese surname, but it is also widely associated with the pseudonymous creator of Bitcoin, Satoshi Nakamoto. In Japanese, "Nakamoto" (中本) can be translated as:
"Naka" (中): Means "middle" or "center".
"Moto" (本): Means "origin" or "base".
Together, the words can be interpreted as "central origin" or "base of the middle", but the exact meaning of the surname may vary depending on the context and interpretation.
The use of the name "Nakamoto" by Satoshi Nakamoto (the creator of Bitcoin) is intentionally enigmatic and may even indicate that the creator's identity was chosen to represent a concept of "central origin", or to give an air of anonymity and mystery to the creation of Bitcoin. The choice of this name does not provide a clear clue about the identity of Satoshi Nakamoto, which remains a mystery to this day.
