Crypto Researcher Uncovers New Evidence Tying Jack Dorsey to Bitcoin
Fresh evidence reignites the debate over Bitcoin’s mysterious creator

A new theory suggesting Jack Dorsey, co-founder of Twitter and Square, is actually Satoshi Nakamoto has sent the crypto world into a frenzy. Financial journalist Seán Murray compiled an extensive list of coincidences linking Dorsey to Bitcoin’s origin, reigniting one of the industry’s biggest mysteries.
Despite Dorsey’s past denials, Murray highlights several intriguing connections. He points out that Bitcoin’s first-ever transaction occurred on Dorsey’s mother’s birthday, and the last known block mined by Satoshi happened on his father’s birthday. Even more suspicious, Satoshi allegedly signed up to the Bitcoin forum on Dorsey’s birthday, November 19.
Murray also claims that Dorsey, known for his cypherpunk leanings since 1996, wore a shirt referencing cryptography pioneer Adam Back and wrote a manifesto in 2001 about making an impact while remaining anonymous—an ethos mirroring Satoshi’s.
Adding to the mystery, Murray says the original Bitcoin code is timestamped at exactly 4 a.m., a time that once appeared in Dorsey’s Twitter bio. He also suggests that a Bitcoin address starting with “jD2m” refers to “Jack Dorsey 2 Mint,” his former residence in San Francisco.
Skeptics, including BitMEX Research, argue that the evidence is circumstantial. Some also doubt that Satoshi, an advocate for decentralization, would later oversee a platform accused of censorship.
Dorsey has not commented on the claims, but the debate continues. Whether true or not, the search for Satoshi Nakamoto remains one of crypto’s most compelling unsolved mysteries.
