Finding Satoshi: The Latest Documentary Claims Hal Finney & Len Sassaman as Bitcoin Creators

The latest documentary titled "Finding Satoshi," released on Wednesday ( April 22, ), claims that Satoshi Nakamoto is a collaboration between Hal Finney and Len Sassaman. A four-year investigation led by William D. Cohan concludes that these two legendary cryptographers worked together to create Bitcoin. This also explains why 1.1 million BTC worth over $80 billion remains untouched, as both creators have passed away.
​The report in the film divides strategic roles, with Finney believed to be the code developer, while Sassaman played the main role in drafting the whitepaper. Metadata analysis of their online activity shows Satoshi’s work rhythm closely matches the time zone of the United States, where both lived. Their professional relationship at PGP Corporation also provides strong evidence of technical collaboration that resulted in the Bitcoin protocol in 2008.
​Coinbase CEO Brian Armstrong supports these investigative findings and calls them the most plausible theory. Although there is no physical evidence such as a private key, testimonies from the widow and colleagues strengthen the suspicion that Satoshi was a team. With the deaths of Finney and Sassaman, this documentary confirms that access to the original Bitcoin wealth has likely been lost forever.
