Elon Musk Says He Is Not Bitcoin's Satoshi Nakamoto (bloomberg.com)

An anonymous reader writes: Not only does Elon Musk deny being the mysterious creator of bitcoin Satoshi Nakamoto, but he's also forgotten where he keeps his cryptocurrency. Musk's assertions came in response to a blog post coursing through digital-currency sites that suggested the PayPal co-founder and Tesla chief executive officer himself is probably the bitcoin originator who used the alias Nakamoto. "Not true," Musk said Tuesday in a tweet. "A friend sent me part of a BTC a few years, but I don't know where it is."

    That sounds exactly like something Satoshi Nakamoto would say...

    This was the dumbest Satoshi theory yet. I can't believe that Elon actually responded to it.

    Of course he responded to it and denied it. Which just goes to prove that it's really true!
