Polymarket, a decentralized prediction market platform, currently has American computer scientist Len Sassaman as the odds-on favorite to be revealed as the legendary “Satoshi Nakamoto” by an HBO documentary slated to air on Oct. 8.
The documentary, “Money Electric: The Bitcoin Mystery,” is the latest expose from filmmaker Cullen Hoback. As Cointelegraph recently reported, Hoback and HBO are intimating that the film will ultimately reveal the true identity of Bitcoin’s mysterious creator.
Neither Hoback nor HBO have made the direct claim that Money Electric will definitively answer the question of who Satoshi Nakamoto is.
