Title: [2016-01-07]Quest to find bitcoin's founder highlights currency's biggest threat Post by: Sturgeon on January 08, 2016, 03:18:22 AM Bitcoin enthusiasts have recently been roiled by claims that an Australian named Craig Wright and his deceased partner are the mysterious founders behind the cryptocurrency.
Of course, we’ve been down this path before. The New York Times, Fast Company, The New Yorker and Newsweek have all made similar claims about different people, only to be proved wrong. And last month, Wired – the magazine behind the most recent claim – said there are reasons to believe Wright is actually a hoaxer and not “Satoshi Nakamoto,” as the currency’s creator is known. http://www.startupsmart.com.au/financing-a-business/tax/quest-to-find-bitcoins-founder-highlights-currencys-biggest-threat/2016010816224.html |
