Australian Entrepreneur Chris Wright Officially Admits He Is the Founder of Bitcoin in a One-Time-Only TV Interview


In an effort to end years of speculation, Australian entrepreneur Chris Wright contacted three big media outlets – the BBC, the Economist and GQ – and revealed that he is the Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto in a one-time-only TV interview.


By going public, Mr Wright hopes to put an end to press speculation about the identity of Satoshi Nakamoto. The New Yorker, Fast Company, Newsweek and many other media organisations have all conducted long investigations seeking Bitcoin's creator and named many different people as candidates.


In December 2015, two magazines, Wired and Gizmodo, named Mr Wright as a candidate after receiving documents believed to be stolen from him that revealed his involvement with the project.
