The identity of Bitcoin's mysterious creator, Satoshi Nakamoto, has been the subject of new claims. British-Asian economist Stephen Mollah claimed to be the creator of Bitcoin at a special event in London with a £500 ($645) entry fee.

The Truth About Satoshi Nakamoto Did Not Emerge at the $645 Private Event
A new development has occurred regarding one of the biggest mysteries in the cryptocurrency world, the identity of Satoshi Nakamoto. British-Asian economist Stephen Mollah claimed to be the creator of Bitcoin at a special event held in London.
During the day, at the organization held in London with a participation fee of £500, Mollah took the stage and planned to make a technical presentation to prove his claim. However, the economist was unable to operate his laptop for the presentation, failing to meet the expectations of the participants.
According to Joe Tidy, who followed the event, Mollah stated that he had previously tried to claim he was the creator of Bitcoin but faced various obstacles. The economist also mentioned that an interview he conducted with various sources was not published.
Mollah, who stated that transferring the Bitcoins from the Genesis block is considered the most valid way to prove the identity of Satoshi Nakamoto, expressed that he would carry out this transaction at an appropriate time.
Describing himself as the author of the Bitcoin whitepaper and the inventor of Blockchain technology on his LinkedIn profile, Mollah also claimed to be the managing director of Coinbase Limited. Following this claim, the absence of such information in Coinbase's company records was criticized by attendees of the event.
Mollah, who claims to be Satoshi Nakamoto but has failed to prove it in any way, stated, "Today, I just wanted to say that I am here. And very soon, I will publish the documents that people and journalists need. They should stop searching for Satoshi Nakamoto online or offline, anywhere in the world. Because there is no Satoshi Nakamoto other than me."
While Mollah indicated that he would soon share documents to support his claims and eliminate all doubts, the cryptocurrency community did not believe these statements.
