I personally don't wanna know who Satoshi is and I hope his identity won't be revealed during my lifetime as I don't see what good can it bring.

What is certain is that this documentary only attracts attention in crypto circles. We know that for 16 years since the bitcoin whitepaper was released, no one knows who Satoshi Nakamoto is. In fact, there have been so many confirmations made as if it were Satoshi Nakamoto but in the end they were also refuted. And in this HBO documentary, it is also rumored to reveal the identity of the person who created Bitcoin, I think this will end in a lie too because I don't think anyone will be able to reveal the identity of Satoshi Nakamoto forever.

Although this film will discuss the origins of Bitcoin, why Bitcoin is growing rapidly, and how Bitcoin can become a rival to the US dollar. There may be more speculation about Satoshi but what is clear is that Satoshi cannot be one person, but a group of people. What is clear is that this film will not reveal anything, this film is only to attract the attention of crypto enthusiasts.

Some executive or producer or even director who doesn't know much about bitcoin will find something that leads to nowhere but because they are ignorant about bitcoin they are going to consider this as real and not see why it is not real. This is what happens when you do something which you are so uneducated about, you have to only focus on what you know. Maybe they are aware how wrong they are, and they just want more people to watch it.

Yes, I also believe that this statement will be like all the previous statements, they will link and string everything together, and finally they will come up with a statement with 1 name based on their research. But at the end of the day, they will have no concrete or clear evidence to be sure that the person is Satoshi.

It really annoys me that every now and then someone wants to dig up news about him when he has decided to stay silent for over 15 years. After all, even if we do find out Satoshi's true identity, what do we do next? We can do nothing but satisfy our curiosity, which is not beneficial to him or us.

For me that is just another pure speculation.

But things got more interesting and we have 2 more days left to see the contents about Satoshi Nakamoto Revealed by HBO.

Are all of the interviews in the trailer original? I got the feeling that several of them were interviews I saw many years ago, though I could be wrong.

My current feeling on Satoshi's identity is:
 - Sassaman is a very bad candidate. If this is their conclusion, then they totally failed to do proper research.
 - 50% chance it's someone nobody's ever heard of, and nobody will ever figure it out
 - 35% chance it's Hal Finney. (Over time, I've moved more probability into this category.)
 - 10% chance it's someone else in the Bitcoin-verse
 - 5% chance it's a group within the CIA

But I'm really not a fan of the whole "search for Satoshi" genre. Being anonymous, Satoshi is an excellent myth and source of inspiration, since we can't see much of his flawed humanity. Mythical-Satoshi is a humble man who, with a lot of persistence and skill, but not with a level of brilliance beyond the reach of us mortals, single-handedly created a clockwork device so powerful that it shook the world. And then, in an action which nobody in the traditional halls of power would ever take, he had the wisdom to walk away: a modern Cincinnatus. I like that myth very much, and I'd rather it not be tainted by association with an actual human.
