Pete Rizzo (@pete_rizzo_) | Published on January 26, 2017 at 15:40 GMT
If the gossip at a recent invite-only bitcoin conference is any indication, news may be forthcoming in the long-simmering Satoshi Nakamoto saga.
On the sidelines of the two-day Satoshi Roundtable conference in Cancun, rumors were swirling that new developments in the 'Who is Satoshi?' story once again relate to the controversial Australian academic and entrepreneur Craig Wright, who last May claimed that he – and as many as four others – contributed to the white paper credited to bitcoin's pseudonymous inventor.
This time, however, there is said to be a potential twist to the story relating to an unknown entity that may have a claim to the intellectual property created by that group.
Major news outlets are once again said to be conducting an investigation into the story, with releases coming out as early as next month.
While interesting, the speculation is notable given that Wright's claims were later attacked by cryptographers, with even those who initially vouched on his behalf later attempting to distance themselves from their previous support.
Wright later publicly apologized for what he claimed is his inability to provide more proof defending his claims, stating at the time:"I believed that I could do this. I believed that I could put the years of anonymity and hiding behind me. But, as the events of this week unfolded and I prepared to publish the proof of access to the earliest keys, I broke. I do not have the courage. I cannot."

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/EditingEditing is the process of selecting and preparing written, visual, audible, and film media used to convey information. The editing process can involve correction, condensation, organization, and many other modifications performed with an intention of producing a correct, consistent, accurate and complete work.
The above was presented to engrain the notion that an EDITOR (more than simply a writer) of an acclaimed periodical WOULD NOT put their reputation on the line by allowing or publishing theirself any content deemed inaccurate or sensationalized, especially for the sake of garnering readers (read: clickbait) of an exponentially growing niche still rife with ongoing controversies, not to mention nation-states looking for any excuse to stifle its further expansion out of fear of disrupting the status quo in re their respective fiat-based financial systems.
As for an EDITOR, same true for the prominent person who owns the periodical, among other ventures (some connected) in said space, in this example,
Barry Silbert, graceful enough to afford its EDITOR a living overseeing other writers in making sure that nothing less than
correct, consistent, accurate and complete work grace the pages of the ofttimes cited news site - CoinDesk - else he would be putting his reputation or, moreover, it and his other brands, which have several employees with families to feed, on the more than proverbial line.
Barry Silbert in no way would hire, let alone retain the likes of Pete Rizzo if they demonstrated incompetence, especially if a hire's words published on CoinDeck strongly resonates across borders influencing an
exponentially growing niche still rife with ...
To cement the notion that Barry Silbert DID indeed hire a competent EDITOR, consider what other prominent colleagues are on record in stating about Pete Rizzo's competence et al.:

That all being said, rest assured that Pete Rizzo nailed it with his recent definitive exposé NOT based on rumors or hearsay that Satoshi Nakamoto WILL be revealed ere long.
In the spirits of the late Captain Stubby and Charles Homer Bill, thanks for listening.

a queen won't even apologize to us if she inadvertently stepped on our foot as she nails our ass, arriving from across the board with fresh cake frosting evident on her sweet lips)
