Documentary filmmaker Cullen Hoback and HBO recently announced the debut of their upcoming film “Money Electric: The Bitcoin Mystery,” along with hints that the true identity of Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto may finally be revealed.

Cullen Hoback is perhaps best known for his HBO miniseries “Q: Into the Storm” wherein he claims to have identified several of the authors of the QAnon conspiracy theory. 

In his latest endeavor, Hoback investigated the origins of Bitcoin ( BTC ) in what appears to be an attempt to track down the true identity of the engineer known as “Satoshi Nakamoto” who is credited with inventing Bitcoin and the underlying technology that makes it possible.

“A few of you might have wondered why I disappeared. Well, I was tracking down someone else who disappeared. Curious who's behind Bitcoin? MoneyElectric: The Bitcoin Mystery drops next Tuesday. It's going to be a rollercoaster.” 

Satoshi Nakamoto

Hoback stopped short of declaring that he’d unerringly determined Nakamoto’s actual identity, instead teasing that the film would “be a rollercoaster.”

While it does appear that Hoback and HBO are implying that such a revelation will occur, the film’s official trailer and Hobock’s statements don’t actually state that an individual has been identified. 

Instead, both Hoback’s X post and the film’s trailer leave open the possibility that Nakamoto was or is an individual, a group of people, or someone else whose been overlooked by previous investigations. 

The investigation into the identity of Bitcoin’s creator has sparked the curiosity of the cryptocurrency community since the mysterious figure appeared to go dormant in December 2010. 

Over the years several candidates have been considered and, as Cointelegraph recently reported, even the FBI won’t confirm or deny whether it has a dossier of information on Nakamoto’s identity. 

At one point Craig Wright, a computer scientist associated with Bitcoin’s development, made the claim that he was Satoshi Nakamoto. But has since rescinded his claims in sworn statements .

“MoneyElectric: The Bitcoin Mystery” is slated to air on HBO on Oct. 8. While the rumored doxing of Nakamoto might be nothing more than hype, If Hoback’s managed to determine once and for all who Satoshi Nakamoto really is, the ramifications could ripple throughout the entire financial world.
