💎Our Pick This Week
The HBO Documentary Money Electric: The Bitcoin Mystery will be released later today. The documentary claims to identify Satoshi Nakamoto, the creator of Bitcoin.
There’s a market for predictors to express who they believe the creator of Bitcoin is, but there’s an important distinction. Because the true identity of Satoshi is unknown, the outcome of this market will be decided by who the creator of the documentary believes is the creator, not who may have actually created the currency (unless the documentary brings irrefutable proof, which is unlikely given Satoshi’s identity has remained anonymous to this day).
Here’s a way to capitalize on multiple outcomes. Nick Szabo and Adam Back both appear in the documentary trailer several times, and an interviewer says to Adam there’s evidence of him being Satoshi.
We’re taking small positions in both the Nick Szabo and Adam Back markets - both have a lot of upside and they’re the leading options.
