Mystery Satoshi Account Breaks Silence: Who’s Behind it?
- @Satoshi account breaks the silence with a new tweet.
- The previous owner reports unauthorized changes to the account‘s login credentials.
- The community note implies Craig Wright‘s previous control over @Satoshi.
In the crypto realm, few mysteries have captivated enthusiasts and skeptics alike more than the identity of Satoshi Nakamoto, the pseudonymous creator of Bitcoin. This mystery again came to the forefront after unexpected activity from the @satoshi Twitter account.
The @Satoshi Twitter account, named after the elusive figure, has recently come into the limelight by breaking its silence with a single, cryptic tweet. This unexpected resurgence has reignited discussions and debates about the true identity behind the account.
Satoshi Tweet Sparks Speculation
The cryptocurrency community was set abuzz as the dormant @Satoshi Twitter account, named after the enigmatic creator of Bitcoin, sprung to life with a tweet after a long silence.
On Thursday, January 18, the account posted “Hello world,” its first Tweet after all previous activity was erased. According to the Wayback Machine , the account was most active in 2018, the year it was created. However, the account occasionally posted cryptic updates after that, including on October 3, 2023.
The account was created four years after the last known communication from the actual Satoshi Nakamoto. For that reason, it was unclear who the account’s owner was. However, there are some clues about the potential owner(s).
Who Controls the Satoshi Account?
In 2018, several clues suggested that Craigh Wright controlled the @satoshi account. Wright, a polarizing figure in the cryptocurrency world, has long claimed to be Satoshi Nakamoto, though these assertions have been met with widespread skepticism and controversy.
The community note under the “Hello World” post also alleged Wright’s involvement. While there is no definitive proof of his involvement, several clues point in that direction. Specifically, the nature of the tweets from the @Satoshi account, often resonating with Wright’s known perspectives on Bitcoin and its underlying principles, point to his involvement.
This includes references to “Bitocin as a Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System,” a term often used by Wright. Moreover, the @Satoshi account has also definitively said he was not Dorian Nakamoto , which would align with Wright’s claims.

For one reason or another, the account’s original owner abandoned it in 2018, opting to leave the account dormant. That is until its alleged hack in 2024 revealed more proof of Wright’s involvement.
On January 1, 2024, Andy Rowe, Wright’s associate, claimed that the @satoshi account, which he controlled until then, was hacked. The login credentials were changed, giving someone else access to it. What is more, Rowe tagged Wright in his post.
Neither Rowe nor Wright posted updates on this security breach since, and it is unclear whether they regained access. With just a “Hello World” message, it is impossible to determine who currently controls the account.
However, users should beware of any scams or misleading info coming from the account, as there is no indication that the real Satoshi Nakamoto has now, or ever, been associated with it.
DailyCoin has reached out to the current owner of the account and will post updates if they respond.
On The Flipside
- High-profile incidents like the @Satoshi account‘s activity can be fertile ground for misinformation and manipulation.
- Certain news outlets posted allegations about the account’s sale. However, there is no proof of this happening.
Why This Matters
Whether legitimate or speculative, the association with Satoshi Nakamoto can significantly influence market perceptions and, consequently, the value dynamics of cryptocurrencies.
