Most of Twitter has taken it as a joke but remains curious. This could lead to a disappointing revelation in the end.

There has been a series of recent sagas with people claiming Satoshi Nakamoto, the most infamous of them being Craig Wright.

John McCafee recently promised to reveal Satoshi Nakamoto's identity, but refrained from doing so after consulting his lawyer.

The Trolls claim that my lawyer's letter regarding disclosure of identity if Satoshi is a fake. I have never heard of such idiocy. The letter includes the telephone numbers and addresses of 5 of his firm's offices. He is one of the first lawyers in the Bahamas. Get real people! pic.twitter.com/qB65vSmSWn
