Satoshi Nakamoto

April

<p>Despite the disputes revolving around the reality of Satoshi’s true identity as Bitcoin’s pseudonymous founder, a 120-page email communication between Nakamoto himself and his former partner, Martti Malmi, came to unveil the early months of the birth of Bitcoin.</p>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="nakamoto-s-concerns">Nakamoto’s concerns</h2>
<p>In the recent past, Chinese legislator Colin Wu, through Wu Blockchain, a well-known crypto social account on X, shared some correspondence between Nakamoto and Malmi earlier this year, initially produced as “proof” of <a href="https://www.cryptopolitan.com/craig-wright-drops-lawsuit/" data-type="link" data-id="https://www.cryptopolitan.com/craig-wright-drops-lawsuit/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Craig Wright’s</a> claim to the original Bitcoin creator.&nbsp;</p>

<p>According to the Wu Blockchain X post, that conversation implied a conflict between “I don’t want to invest-J. Malmi” Wu warned about this in his ‘X post’ before noting Bitcoin’s powerful nature thrown in the face of Nakamoto. Alongside it, Malmi’s email to <a href="https://www.cryptopolitan.com/craig-wright-is-not-satoshi-nakamoto/" data-type="link" data-id="https://www.cryptopolitan.com/craig-wright-is-not-satoshi-nakamoto/" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Nakamoto</a> was published in the 2009-2011.&nbsp;</p>
<blockquote class="wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow">
 <p>“I think we should de-emphasize the anonymous angle. With the popularity of bitcoin addresses instead of sending by IP, we can’t give the impression it’s automatically anonymous. It’s possible to be pseudonymous, but you must be careful.”</p>
</blockquote>
<p>This email and Nakamoto’s concerns that Bitcoin should not be regarded “as a safe investment” paved the way for the controversy to gain traction. Donachy said initially he wasn’t that comfortable with making them public due to the Wright trial, but those emails are now legal evidence. On the contrary, those emails do not have any substantial proof to associate Satoshi Nakamoto with his real identity; however, the conversation could disclose the vision and concerns of the creator behind Bitcoin.</p>
