Update: New emails between Satoshi and Adam released in 2024
x.com/sociablebarely/status/1761267239507181709?s=46&t=xUjp-_PyrYOV_NBbTa9uCA
Does this change your conclusion?
we need an update!! but this time B S should dig into Mike Hydes' testimony
I appreciate your work...I'm Satoshi and so is Elon Musk...I'm 38, American, my name is David...It was my idea, I own the coins, they are under the control of my trustee/conservator...We hired Elon, to control the development. I have no technical knowledge of computers...I am extremely wealthy and successful outside of Bitcoin...That's the truth...When you realize that the person corresponding in the emails is Elon, under my made up alias Satoshi Nakamoto, it becomes obvious...I have mental illness, which causes me to be unstable and unpredictable, I don't even have access to my own wealth...That's why the secrecy...I wanted to make Bitcoin for one reason, to take down the oppressive and predatory federal reserve and central banking system...I don't care about the notoriety or recognition...This is not for me, it's for everyone...I will be revealed, bit not until I'm the wealthiest man in the world. Depending on Bitcoins price, it could be very soon...I am also the secret founder and creator of the Monster Energy brand, among many other things, all done in secrecy...
What does it mean?
My hypothesis is that Adam's emails "to Satoshi" are fabricated years after they were supposedly sent. Adam's clearly a smart enough guy to pull something like that off and he's clearly wealthy enough to escape any consequences legally for the fabrication.
The only Satoshi Nakamoto I can endorse is that retired engineer who was harassed by the media for no reason, got compensated by cryptobros and immediately cashed out the bag instead of getting further involved in that nonsense. Absolute king, I hope he’s doing well.

Interesting how all these guys look similar. There must be a uniform rule
Oooooffff
"This situation has been very disappointing to watch unfold. This is Barely Sociable. Have a good night." - Drops the mic with Satoshi's mask
The way it just loops all the way around and goes full circle, poetry.
Are you sure Barely isn't Satoshi ? Lol 😆 💀
I laughed when he said this. I was like "this can't be it!?" He sounded so fed up and over it all.
The original line from Satoshi has the tone of Vader’s “I find your lack of faith disturbing.”
FAAAAAKKKKKKKK
Sounds like a very programmer thing to do:
"Satoshi Nakamoto should remain unknown because I don't want you to ask me to make changes to my code"
That is what Adam in other words said in that interview.
the code is open source and can be modified if the other nodes are in agreement
@@Obsid_Ian But he apparently doesn't like that very much :-D
Adam clearly doesn't want to become a scapegoat for everything bad that happens with Bitcoin.
@@tabaxazuaq5456 true lol
if this is true, then satoshi is the physical embodiment of the expression "you either die a hero, or live long enough to become the villian". holy moly
Yeah 😭
This guy tries to make Adam look bad. Adam had the vision and wouldn't let power crazy nutcases stop it
@@chrismale9976 true. He could have at least provided counter arguments and try empathise the motives to be more objective on the matter. Eg Roger Ver and the heavy handed cult censorship on the other side of the debate
@@taygabh Exactly!!! He simply stopped power hungry nutcases from completely centralising it and turning it into another ethereum
@@chrismale9976 still true. but after watching this i've been deep diving and I saw some comments by Greg Maxwell (ex blockstream CTO) who was on r/btc saying this video was conspiracy theories paid for by Roger, failed to provide any counter evidence and argued with childish name calling etc... which just seemed absolutely embarrassing to me. I had also forgot Gavin naming CSW and missed his bcash support. I was so glad to be past this error, bit disappointing to come back full circle. But serious question, I didn't realise that blockstream had come along and hired all the core developers somewhat covertly to a for profit company, is that not centralisation?
This is the part where a Barely Sociable person shows his true potential
Im at awe at these youtubers. They are really good at what they do. Imagine what else they can do.
@Cat Egorical Oh you just wait until some Down the Rabbit Hole exposes Barely Sociable as the mastermind behind it all
He was legit hacking their chat logs
Turns out the real Satoshi Nakamoto aren't the friends we made along the way :(
great to see - I remember his first couple vids
Lesson of the day: don’t make your own wikipedia page
After watching this, I'm relatively certain that Barely Sociable is actually Satoshi. Pretty clever to make a three part documentary to throw us off the trail, but they seem to know a little too much.

Totally understand! 😆
Oh yeah Mr. Read off stuff people already found out is the legendary bitcoin man

Shutdown miners etc.
Okay, that was fun.
For your next trick: Who REALLY killed J.F.K.
Go Barely Sociable, Go.
Look up vids by The Dark Journalist. Did a lot of work on it. Simple Summary: it was groups tied to Lyndon B Johson.
Israel killed JFK for threatening (2 months prior to his death) to end US support unless they allowed US inspections to prove they weren't manufacturing illegal nuclear weapons at their Dimona facility in the Negev. Hint: they were, with stolen US nuclear technology
LOL! Perhaps he can also solve the mystery of the Great Pyramid....
JFK's death was actually an elaborate suicide.
YES!
Of course you had to stretch it past the 10 minute mark.
And even that for 4 times lol

Making this paid content defeats the purpose of truth reaching the most amount of people it can
Interviewer: "who do you think Satoshi Nakamoto is?"
Adam's eyes: ⬆️➡️↘️⬅️↗️⬇️⬅️↙️⬅️⬆️
'I do not, do not really know' = I really do know. Pre-mediated answer to avoid lying, delivered very nervously and guilty. Eye movements, facials expressions, tone of voice, body language. He's an apalling actor!
I agree
The little side smirk too
Pekora's laugh
😏
Adams reply to “do you think you know who Satoshi is”, was as believable as Clinton saying “I did not have sexual relations with that woman “..
It can't be Adam guys, their emails were already been made public, Satoshi pointed out to him that he has contribution to his project
Amazing job on this! That clip of Adam explaining why it’s best for “Satoshi” to remain anonymous put all the pieces together for me. Nobody asks, “who invented the dollar?”-not having a name/face makes it feel like an objective commodity rather than an invention that’s purchased. The anonymity is not a selfless denial of profit but a means to make Bitcoin more profitable. As to why not access his account with billions on it, why risk being unmasked when he probably has plenty of money in other accounts, while having the safety net of knowing that fortune is there should he ever need it. FANTASTIC work!
Really great points here. And I agree, fantastic work, although I would even say that's an understatement.... the amount of digging this guy did to piece together the evidence is ridiculous. Probably why I come back and rewatch this video every so often!
The whole “anonymous” for the greater good aspect always feels like a bit of a stretch when you consider that the smaller fraction of a Bitcoin is named after Satoshi. Therefore the currency ultimately is designed to actually grow to a point where the coins used in common trading are actually directly invoking his name ….
@@mobilegameclips5628 Remember that these fractions were only named "Satoshis" after Satoshi himself disappeared in 2011. They were named by the surviving community (extremely small at the time compared to today) as a tribute to the creator, not by the creator himself. So your conclusion that BTC is "designed to grow to a point to where it invokes his name" is a bit of a stretch, in my opinion.
Hey Josiah, cbi...
one little things. Bitcoin published in a summer 2008 on a russian boards. Before Satoshi made his first message. Many guys know about this, its not a big secret.
If Barley Sociable disappears we know who did it
John McAffee does him in
Carole Baskin
@@owlman_ I see no reason why McAffee would know who it is....he wasnt in that circle. Hal Finney might have known..

If this catches on in the media, this video will break the internet. Holy shit.
I wonder if Adam Back will admit it now?....
The guy is pretty sneaky, he seems more like the type to dmca the video or create fake emails as a cop out
@@BarelySociable I can see that happening for sure.
Now that's done, we need to unmask the person truly behind this channel. Unbelievable work you're doing

How is this comment 10 hours old...? New video????
Walaay A early access to youtube videos is a pretty common perk for channel members and patreon donors
Barely Sociable is a one in a lifetime channel, dude come's out of nowhere, makes some very well produced videos about some internet mysteries and curious stuff and suddenly drops this gem.
Damn, i knew from the beginning that this channel had it, but you've surpassed my expectations by far!
Like the quiet kid getting a 94 on a final exam when he never even showed up to the lessons.
I've never given a shit about cryptocurrency or bitcoin, but Barely Sociable got me so hooked on this video series I clicked as soon as I saw the notification.
Yes
My dude, i srrlyy started watching him a week ago and now im w8 for his next video
I wish I could go back and watch the Lake City Quiet Pills video for the first time again. Been hooked since then, knew this would blow up fast and boy did he
Yeah when most bigger channels are just copying reddit posts for their 900th unsolved mystery or shitty ARG breakdown.
"This situation has been very disappointing to watch unfold" brilliant call-back, perfect final line.
Have fun staying poor
@@flavius22What do you mean?
Some pointed out that Hal Finney lived two blocks away from Dorian (birth name Satoshi) Nakamoto. This suggests Finney played some role in the creation of this "persona", but it may have been a collective effort, with Back doing most of the PR... That would explain why stuff like the writing style all implicate Back while the name "Satoshi Nakamoto" links to Finney.
How big was the blocksize between their houses? 1MB or 2?
Seriously tho it's also highly possible that Hal and Adam disagreed on lots of things but worked together to create Satoshi and compromised at the time on direction. With Hal dying this gave Adam guilt and accountability free reign to force bitcoin to his ideal path. While still maintaining the anonymous founder concept for bitcoin adoption.
I think it was a multiple person collaboration. At 37:06 there’s a slip of tongue and he says “we”.
The utter disappointment in your voice at the end of this video completely explains why it took so long for this one to come out. Hopefully the next rabbit hole you take us down will have a more pleasant outcome.
Yep his voice at the end is so sobering and i'm Irish ffs , great vid
Hopefully in the future Bitcoin or another alt coin can truly become the truly decentralized community driven system we all envisioned.
Bitcoin is deepstate
Yea hopefully
I've never realized how centralized Bitcoin actually is. You keep reading about Bitcoin being the only "real" and "diversified" crypto currency but it has its flaws just like all other major currencies.
Sometimes history can really be witnessed IN THE MAKING.

@@zay9242Satoshi just got unmasked
If this series was 10 hours+, I would still watch it. Well done.
Great bit of internet sleuthing this was. I'm not surprised to hear that bitcoin grifting and drama goes all the way back to its founders, but seeing the scope of it really gives you an appreciation for how deep the conflict of interest goes. In retrospect, it makes a lot of sense why someone would keep their internet alter-ego in their back pocket. Being able to roleplay as the mysterious, unpredictable founder of an underground currency gives you an influence that conventional figureheads don't have. Every time Back talks about Satoshi and bitcoin, he sounds like a guy who's just barely holding back the glee of thinking he's got everyone fooled and is hiding in plain sight.
Barely Sociable just went Super Saiyan. We've entered a new era of humanity.

Craig Wright did just win a case in Miami. Judgment says he doesn't have to give the estate of Dave Kleinman, the alleged co-creator of bitcoin with Wright, half of the Satoshi bitcoins. He apparently proved he was the sole creator of bitcoin.....
So wait let me get this straight. Bitcoin was meant to be a p2p currency that couldn’t be manipulated/didn’t need a third party. But then immediately fell victim to being manipulated by a third party that you would need to use to send payments.
After all this time it will be revealed that Satoshi was really the friends we made along the way

Nice
Still not as great a coincidence as the "coincidences" of Adam and Satoshi...
4:50 - James A. Donald, is really a genius man, he literally read and understood his white paper and predicted the scaling issue.
The secular West’s double standards are glaringly evident from how they deal with “irrationality”. When this so-called irrationality is linked with religion it’s a problem. However, when it comes to things like “gender fluidity” it’s completely fine. Another example that can be mentioned is how the “clairvoyant” Edgar Cayce was extremely popular during the early 20th century.
And it’s the same story when it comes to aliens 👽. The secular West, unable to fight its innate tendency to believe in the ghayb, proposes the likely existence of a non-human species that could communicate with our world - the same way Muslims believe in the jinn
Of course, all of this is done in the name of their own religion: science. They even have their own priests in the form of astrobiologists, etc.
This belief of theirs is of the same nature as ours. Even if they try and add some pseudo-empiricist spice: there may be tangible elements pointing towards the existence of aliens 👽 They fail to grasp how we, too, say there are “tangible elements” regarding the influences of the jinn within our world.*

Wikipedia editors aren't going to like this... I hate the way they never see RUclips videos as sources under ANY circumstances, there will probably be an editing war due to this video, unless it's reported on by some 'reliable' source like a news site.
EDIT: They’re already referring to it as a ‘poorly researched podcast’ lol
Rudol Von Stroheim yeah that’s simply false, they’re worded in very centrist terms, Wikipedia generally leans center-right, but it’s not some conspiracy, it’s just that the English Wikipedia page is mainly moderated and edited by tech-savvy Americans, and this group leans center to center-right in the US. You sound like some “conservapedia” idiot if you think Wikipedia is secretly some sort of liberal propaganda. I’m not a fan of liberals or the mainstream media myself, but let’s at least try to keep things factual.
@Rudol Von Stroheim You sound like someone who thinks liberals have the same ideas actual leftists.
@@joma5721 I think hes wrong but it's pretty ridiculous to say they're center right. they're pretty dead center with maybe a slight leftward leaning.
@@joma5721 Other than labeling everything "far right" on there that is center left to far right. Just read any of the "authoritative sources" that are pulled from there on RUclips. Almost all of them claim "far right conspiracy theory" in the blurb. They get their sources from Google search probably 99% of the editors, which means words are redefined enough that they carry over to there with exaggerated context. Google curates a narrative in the search results so odds are the wiki pages will carry that same tone.
It has nothing to do with who most of the editors are. People with an agenda are just very proactive when it comes to editing so certain topics will have that nonsense in it.
@Cat Egorical They is not only a plural pronoun. It has existed as a gender neutral singular pronoun since the 14th century ffs. And if it's making articles unreadable to you, then you just need to practice better reading comprehension, not demand the English language bend to your preferences.
When he says: "presumably he's not coming back" is like saying "I might find my keys and dumb all my bags and the whole market". The ultimate power move.

so in the end, satoshi was out for profit and is now trying to make as much from it as possible while using his cult like status to not lose the fanbase to milk them.. fun.
id say its clear that @ 1st he was either mostly driven by excitement of the technology or a genuine desire 4 his outwardly stated morals
1nce it became clear he could wield potentially tremendous power im sure the motivation shifted
sad really, at least it had a good impact on the world, imma start using monero
it is the most sensible thing to do. when you created a commodity this big, you want to hide the fact that you are the one who made it and had a head start before everybody else. i believe barelysocialable is right, even if he was wrong, the person who stands to benefit the most is most likely satoshi.
My comment will not be regarding Satoshi Nakamoto or Adam Back.
Unfortunately, no matter a person's good intentions, power and money almost always gets the better of that person.
I hope that this is not the case.

Proper job, that's saved me a lot of work. Thank you
You laid this out so well. I have to agree with you, Adam seems to be the most likely candidate.
Not surprised Adam is denying his identity as Satoshi Nakamoto. There’s no way someone who’s put so much effort into hiding their identity would just say “Yup. It’s me.” if he was found out.

This video is a red herring, Barely Sociable is Satoshi. Just randomly out of nowhere this "Barely Sociable" channel springs into existence and grows to have nearly 400k subs in eight months? Does that truly seem barely sociable to you? And his info is just a tad too well-researched for a random youtuber who only started posting less than a year ago. But the most compelling evidence perhaps is that if you turn the volume all the way up at 7:16 you can hear his mom shouting, "Satoshi Nakamoto, if you don't come down here and take out the trash right now then you're walking to school tomorrow!" I rest my case. (Continued below)
That said, I think it goes without saying that the research done in these videos is phenomenal. One little note though if that's all right. While these videos are very intriguing and definitely keep you watching, I have found that a lot of the content is confusing to understand. I feel that this is a subject where one either needs to have a background or to have spent quite a bit of time researching it, but to a lot of us even if certain events, terms, or documents had been explained before, often merely mentioning them again doesn't make it clear what they are because of the technical nature of the subject. I still really enjoyed watching all parts of this topic and feel that the channel on the whole is excellent. Maybe I just hold him up to crazy high expectations, haha! Please keep it up.

Doesn't necessarily "disprove" anything, but thickens the plot somewhat. I've been loving Barely's videos too, but it is kinda weird how he just sprung up with this very targeted (and very curiously-timed) campaign.
it would be highly unlikely because the thing about the trash implies that he is a school student who lives with his mother which would be impossible because he started bitcoin in 2007 which would mean he would have to be at least 14, although probably older because he would have to obtain the knowledge of how to do that. Of course this could be something to give light to his identity finally for skilled cryptographers, and there could also be something hidden in the audio of the video (you can turn it into an image somehow, Idk how), but it would also be the kind of thing a bored youtuber doing lots of research for a video for his growing channel would do for laughs.
This was amazing. I am 99% convinced by your conclusion, to be conservative about it. What an outstanding research and editing job. A note : I've heard yourself downplay how hard it is to reach such conclusions in some of your videos, but you do realize that you have quite a high level of commitment and critical thinking, right?
naw man hes satoshi dont let him fool you
That answer Adam Back gave at the end about why is better not to know who Satoshi is was so thoroughly thought that is a clue on its own.
to play devils advocate, he has had years to ponder the question (the 'better to know / not know'). But he clearly never rehearsed the "who is ..." question. The eyes down and smile are pretty hard to ignore. All he had to practice replying was "I know who it isnt, it isnt me" with a straight face. As for the 'why keep denying', the aura evaporates once there's a single originator. Who invented money? I think he wants to maintain that level of importance to it. Once he's the known face of BTC, it's just another 'thing' , and every little up and down will lead to questions directly *to him*. Tough to be the father of what could be a $10 trillion alternative currency.
Yeah I do understand where youre coming from, but to think it is a clue seems a bit too much, as it is widespread knowledge that knowing who created Bitcoin and if that person is still alive would ruin the project entirely.
Everyone is asking who's Satoshi Nakamoto...
...But no-one is asking how's Satoshi Nakamoto... 😔
Real question is when is Satoshi Nakamoto.
Why is satoshi nakamoto
Someone took a look at the comment section of the previous videos huh?
which is Satoshi nakamoto ?
@xafiat It’s not the Internet, if an original joke hasn’t been stolen and repeatedly beaten to death.
i’ve watched you since the beginning and you STILL haven’t told people to like, sub, or comment! it’s rare i find a good channel, thank you for making my quarantine worthwhile. ❤️
He doesn’t need to beg, he just wants to flex.
@gsamayoa68 In all honesty I think that someone this hardworking and intelligent doesn’t have to (and by extension doesn’t want to) rely on the RUclips algorithm in his life. He probably has a decent irl job with computers.
11k club 😎🤣
There's absolutely nothing wrong with asking (in a concise manner of course) to engage with a video. Nothing at all. I don't even see why this point is being made.
This is one of the greatest documentaries I have seen. Well done
your stuff is just so high quality, i love it
Was expecting an unconclusive half-assed wild theory about why some random farmer in Kent was Satoshi.
Instead, we get tons of concrete evidence and the timeline that make a really solid case. Even the Graphology test, the way he rights, with the double-space checks out.
It feels so good to have a conclusion and a potential end to the search of who is Satoshi. Very well done video, incredible research. Top tier content, it doesn't really get better than this boys.
Lemmino is also a really good channel
@@Rectiifyy Lemmino is indeed a very good channel, but he's way less Assertive / Conclusive when talking about stuff like this.
He also has close to 4 million subs, so he's quite popular. this channel has only half a million of subs. So yeah thanks anyway for the advice, but I watch too much RUclips already.
K swap yourself.
A third of the population uses double spaces. And it seems the only similar "writing style" is that both used British English instead of American
The pain of watching powers behind Bitcoin go from something that was meant to be "freedom from the banks!" to basically trying to become its own bank corp nation complete with its own corporate script is... indescribable. Sometimes knowledge is painful, but if I were more inclined enough to not want to know, I imagine I would only know a fraction of what I do and be poorer for it. Great series Barely Sociable, keep up the amazing work.
Didn't something similar happen to companies like Facebook and Google? Starting all idealistic but then becoming our new corporate overlords? It's the way capitalism functions, I guess.
Well yeah. Money and power corrupt, period. Once someone gets a large amount of money, it’s never enough, they need all the money.
Google “mimblewimble”
Power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely.
@@suave319 Agreed. Power and Greed have been ingrained as part of us due to evolution and the struggle for survival. It's nothing new and can be seen across practically the entire Animal Kingdom.
Very thorough analysis. Like well deserved
Dude.. incredibly well done series, that culminated in a logical opinion. New subscriber, have been riveted ever since. Thanks homeboy
XD He edited his own Wikipedia article.
It seems like the kind of person that wants to hide something and stay anonymous to avoid consequences, but still wants credit and control.
I laughed so hard during that bit because it reminded me the only other person I know of that edited their own Wikipedia article, the one and only Chris-Chan
But he did it under a username instead of anonymously. He just wanted to add stuff he thought was relevant to the page, but I think Wikipedia has a policy against creators editing their own works or personal pages to avoid censorship and conflict of interest.
Doesn’t everyone want to “have their cake and eat it too”?
listen. i dont know anything about bitcoin or cryptocurrency, but holy SHIT i got so into this story. the twists and turns... like a movie
What's up, homestuck icon?
Shame its not accurate. Anyone that can't get Gavin Andresen's name right has obviously not done much serious research.
@@sharpvidtube my professors kept mispronouncing my name. I bet they didn't really have a degree. Your comments would be more valuable if you pointed out a technical flaw instead of a pronouncation one. I bet there's quite a few of them across the three parts as they were long and produced in quite a short time. Choose a more serious one. It could be fixed if pointed out.
All you need to know is that even 5 minutes worth of research throws this entire theory in the dumpster.
Same here. I know basically nothing about crypto, and I was pretty "riveted" by this video series. Not to mention Barely has a fucking _amazing_ voice, especially for this subject matter. The Silk Road video was priceless.
However, I try to never jump to conclusions when I've only heard one side. So I've been looking around a little bit, and ended up finding this: bitcoin-takeover.com/why-barely-sociables-adam-back-is-satoshi-nakamoto-video-is-bcash-propaganda/
Again... I'm hesitant to make any conclusions, but some pretty interesting points in there. This whole saga seems far from over...
i've watched every video you've released, and this was the finale to it all. WELL F*CKING DONE!
Outstanding research! Well done!
Imagine if he had said:
"I'm going to tell you who Satoshi is..."
"it's me"
I’d shit myself
@@Omar-te6nm Username check out
shook
Ok it’s me, you got me.
Big Hannah Montana moment
I think the most damning evidence is the fact there are no logs between Alex and Satoshi while there are logs for everyone else involved. No one could be this clean at hiding everything when these messages have all been released years later. Guaranteed you are right
It would be cool if he reveal himself but at the same time dangerous, I have a feeling once he reveal himself the government will come after him and press charges against him for Tax eviction, illegal activity through Bitcoin and the increase activity of the dark web since Bitcoin in the main currency for it and likely the government will blame him for the cause of it darkweb payment being untraceable and seizes his assets. It’s best for whoever Sataoshi is the stay hidden and who knows what chaos would happen
@@coffeelink943 Thing is if he never cashes out he never pays the taxes. My thought though is that Adam has made enough to where he doesnt "need" the billions his 1 million BTC would grant him and thus he can safely set it aside
@@cory9919 yeah, i mean "just" 5-10 million is enough to stop working.
@@cory9919 but still the dark web illegally activity is exist because of his Bitcoin currency since its untraceable . The government will say bull shit things to make him look guilty so they can seizes his assets or whatever they want to do. Not just one but multiple country governments. It’s probably for the best for whoever this guy is to stay hidden or who knows what consequences he will face
Ding ding ding!!!!!
Satoshi is not hiding. He's being hidden/robbed.
Utterly brilliant journalism. And very convincing. Can’t wait for the film to come out (when we know what the ending will be!)
Just found your channel…
Watched a couple videos…
Nice 👍🏽
In discussion on Tweeter seems like Adam Back is really moved by your video :D He just cannot stop explaining himself ;(
IF THIS VIDEO STAYS ONLINE WITH COMPLETÊ SERIES!!!! the world will unite as ADAM Back TO PURE CASH SOCIETY ^^ DAMN THE FDC FBI CIANSA WOULD LOVE TO IN TERVIEW THE GUY OOOHHH WAIT THEY DID ALREADY TALK TO ADAM XdXdxdxdxA
@@scarredfanumberone wtf, are you having a stroke...
Scarred Fan too much h3h3?
What was the discussion/what did he say?? I’m not rlly on twitter and wouldn’t know where to look but I’m insanely curious haha
sad199 6 check the pinned comment on the video from Barely Sociable. He’s linked the tweets
The amount of thought he put into why the creator of bitcoin’s identity should not be revealed makes me wanna believe maybe he is the one.
Yeah he seemed very confident in his reasoning, almost like he came up with the idea himself
Also I noticed that he was very incorfoble but certain when he anwsered the question. 🤔
Yeah a normal answer would have been “no clue, privacy? A joke? Who knows” not a 5 minute spiel
Maybe he's a decent human being 🤷
More so when he says he’s not coming back right and breaks eye contact and genuinely smiles to himself, when the rest of his interview is perfect eye contact and conversational smile
big research down the rabbit hole, great job
Great investigative work on this. really well done sir.
Get your self in Crypto^^^btc°°°′
and make sure millions in good return
Everyone asks who is Satoshi but nobody every asks how is Satoshi 😔
Quick everyone try to find out who liked this hes gotta be in there
Cuz he weighs 50 billion usd
I am Satoshi and I am against Bill Gates, Klaus Schwab and their Great Reset. Join me comrades.
Lmaooo
lol good one
Now I am convinced more than ever that Barely Sociable is L from Death Note.
デスノ一ト
夜神 月
He says that ignoring the British secret developer and coder who's identity is 1% revealed the entire run-time.
Satoshi is L
Gage Kellstrom nah Satoshi is Light, Barely Sociable is L
The piano in the background towards the end does that
Brilliant series on this subject-🙏
