As he was writing about Bitcoin-related topics, his unbelievable brain started unraveling Ethereum, thanks to his idea about a scripting language for application development being rejected by Bitcoin.

No, he’s not a robot, he’s an unbelievably smart individual who has achieved plenty at the age of 24 years old. His tweets are technical and rises debates with cryptocurrency developers around the world. It is no wonder his decisions make an impact, given Ethereum’s place in the cryptocurrency market placed ranked in at 2nd.

His experience of studying computer science and building a system for matching trader orders on the Tokyo Stock Exchange and Bloomberg’s Tradebook for futures trading has led him to the path of cryptocurrency.

The pseudonym that hides the person who created the whole cryptocurrency revolution. Satoshi Nakamoto’s real name still remains unknown. He is the pioneer of the world’s first cryptocurrency, Bitcoin and authored the whitepaper which brought in knowledge about digital payments.

It’s better he stays hidden, as in today’s value with the heights that Bitcoin has achieved, he could very well be the wealthiest person in the world. Any guesses who Satoshi could be?
