The recent HBO documentary "Money Electric: The Bitcoin Mystery" suggests that Peter Todd, a Canadian developer, may be the creator of Bitcoin, Satoshi Nakamoto. This speculation has sparked significant reactions in the cryptocurrency community, with Ripple's CTO, David Schwartz, dismissing assumptions about Nakamoto's intentions as "delusional nonsense." Schwartz argues that developers should not feel obligated to follow Nakamoto's vision for Bitcoin. Fellow crypto enthusiast STominaga adds that any legal cases related to Bitcoin's identity should rely solely on Nakamoto's documented writings. Advocates defending Nakamoto's vision must demonstrate how Bitcoin aligns with Nakamoto's original goals. The ongoing mystery surrounding Nakamoto's identity continues to captivate the community, and the HBO documentary has sparked further discussions on the responsibilities of current developers toward Nakamoto's original vision.
