The upcoming HBO documentary "Money Electric: The Bitcoin Mystery" aims to reveal the true identity of Satoshi Nakamoto, the creator of Bitcoin. The documentary has generated significant buzz, with over $6.3 million in bets on the crypto prediction platform Polymarket. Computer scientist Nick Szabo is currently the frontrunner with a 23% chance, followed by Blockstream CEO Adam Back with a 16% chance. Len Sassaman, who passed away in 2011, had previously been the top choice but his odds have since dropped. The documentary's conclusion has already been determined, possibly by insiders, leaving bettors to rely on speculation. The documentary will premiere on HBO and HBO Max on Tuesday at 9:00pm ET.
