在《纽约时报》调查记者John Carreyrou 发布研究文章指认 Blockstream 首席执行官 Adam Back 为中本聪“最可能候选人”之后，Back 于 4 月 8 日在 X 平台公开发文，再度否认自己并非比特币创始人--中本聪（Satoshi Nakamoto）。

针对 Carreyrou 的调查结论，Back 从统计学的角度反驳称，由于自己在密码朋克邮件列表发言活跃，发帖量远超普通参与者，因此在电子现金等话题中留下评论的概率更高；
这也和其它兴趣相同但发帖频率低的人相比，他在邮件列表中的“痕迹”过于明显，被误认成中本聪的概率被人为拉高。
这也让调查者容易把他言论和中本聪关联，其实是统计偏差。和兴趣相同但发帖少二十倍的人比，他在邮件列表“痕迹” 太明显，被误认成中本聪的概率被人为拉高。

Back进一步表示，报道中列举的其他"证据"大多只是具有相似背景和兴趣的人，使用了相似的词汇和句式而产生的表述习惯重合。
他承认发明比特币需要特定技能和长期经验，但强调包括自己在内的许多密码学家，在此前十年的电子现金设计尝试中，"看似接近最终方案，实则未能触及核心"。
Back以上的这一系列言论，既是对自己并非中本聪的佐证，也表达了对中本聪完成真正突破的敬意。
Back 重申对中本聪真实身份毫不知情
Back还重申对中本聪的真实身份并不知情，并认为这种未知状态对比特币有利。因为，身份的不确定性有助于BTC被视为"数学上稀缺的数字商品"，成为独立于个人或机构的资产类别。
不过，Carreyrou 也在 X 上坦言，唯一的真正确凿证据是密码学证明，只有Adam能够提供，但这已经很接近了。

Craig Wright 欺诈案曝出更多相关内幕
值得注意的是，在 Craig Wright（一个曾宣称自己是中本聪的人）欺诈审判中，有一些电子邮件被公开，这些邮件正是 Adam Back与中本聪之间的通信。
邮件显示，中本聪于2008年8月联系 Adam Back 本人，想在发布比特币白皮书前，确认Back引用的内容是否正确，从侧面印证了 Back 和中本聪是两个不同的人。
但Carreyrou提出了一个反驳观点称，这些邮件可能是 Adam Back 自己发给自己的，目的是制造"我和中本聪不是同一个人"的假象，作为掩护。不过，这个观点并没有被大众广泛接受。
结语
综上，尽管各方观点不一，但仍无确凿证据揭示中本聪的真实身份。这正如Back所言，中本聪身份的未知状态反而推动了比特币发展，使其成为不完全依赖个人或机构的独特资产。
身份可以伪装，猜测可以偏差，但比特币的技术创新和去中心化本质，或许正是中本聪想留给加密世界最宝贵的遗产。

Another day and we have another headline that says Satoshi has been found. This time it is The New York Times. They are talking about Adam Back. He is a cryptographer and he created Hashcash.. Before you get too excited or think that the market is going to crash let us look at the facts.
🔍 What Did the NYT Actually Find?
The New York Times did not find any proof. They just found some things that could be true:
Adam Backs work is similar to the work of Satoshi. The whitepaper for Bitcoin mentions Hashcash, which's Adam Backs proof-of-work system.
The way Adam Back writes is similar to the way Satoshi writes.
Adam Back was part of the cypherpunk community when Bitcoin was first thought of.
This all sounds pretty good.. We have seen this before in the crypto world and it always ends the same way.
❌ The Missing Pieces
Here are the things that do not add up:
There is no proof. Satoshi could easily prove who they are by signing a message with their keys. Adam Back has not done this.. Just because he says he is not Satoshi it does not mean anything.
Adam Back says he is not Satoshi. He has said this times. Unless he is trying to trick us this means something.
The Bitcoins that Satoshi owns have not been moved. There are over 1 million Bitcoins that have not been touched. If Adam Back were Satoshi you would think he would move some of them to prove it.
Without these things the theory that Adam Back is Satoshi is a guess.
📊 Market Reaction? Surprisingly Calm
The price of Bitcoin did not change much when this news came out. This is different from what happened when Craig Wright said he was Satoshi.
Why is this? Because the market knows that:
What really matters is proof, not what the press says. The market only cares about what's happening on the blockchain.
It does not matter who Satoshi is. The code that runs Bitcoin is the no matter who created it.
The fact that we do not know who Satoshi is is a thing. It means that there is no one person in charge and that is what makes Bitcoin strong.
💡 Why This Still Matters
Even though we do not know if Adam Back is Satoshi this story is still important. It shows us that people are still very interested in Bitcoin and who created it.
If we found out who Satoshi really is tomorrow what would happen?
The price of Bitcoin might go up or down. It would not be a big deal.
The government might try to regulate Bitcoin but it is already decentralized.
The big question is, what would happen to the 1 million Bitcoins that Satoshi owns? Would they be moved? Probably not. Many people think that those Bitcoins are lost or frozen on purpose.
The most important thing is that Bitcoin is not controlled by one person. It is a network that is run by millions of people. No one person can shut it down. Change the rules.
⚡ Bottom Line, for Binance Square Traders
Here is what we know:
The evidence that Adam Back is Satoshi is moderate best.
There is no proof that Adam Back is Satoshi.
Adam Back says he is not Satoshi.
The market has not reacted much to this news.
You should not trade based on this news.
The theory that Adam Back is Satoshi is strong. The proof is weak. The mystery of Satoshi. That might be what makes Bitcoin so strong.
Until we see some proof we should be skeptical of any headlines that say Satoshi has been found. Just keep buying Bitcoin. Do not worry about who Satoshi is.
What do you think? Is Adam Back the Satoshi or is this just another false lead? Let us know what you think in the comments. 👇

Blockstream CEO claims Ethereum Virtual Machine’s complexity enabled hackers to drain funds
Prominent crypto figure Adam Back, known as a cypherpunk and CEO of Blockstream, took to X to share his thoughts on the recent Bybit hack, where the exchange lost $1.4 billion in ETH.
Back pointed to Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM) as the key factor that allowed hackers to successfully exploit the system and drain Bybit’s funds.
❌ Back Criticizes EVM Complexity as Ethereum’s Weakness
According to Adam Back, the primary issue lies in the complexity of Ethereum transactions, making the network vulnerable to attacks.
📌 How did hackers exploit this weakness?
🔹 EVM is overly complex, making it difficult for hardware wallets to interpret transactions.
🔹 Blind signing of Ethereum transactions introduces security risks.
🔹 Bybit attempted to transfer $100 million in ETH from its cold wallet to a hot wallet, but hackers manipulated the process, ultimately draining $1.4 billion in total.
Back described EVM as fragile, unsecure, and overly complicated, claiming that these weaknesses increase the risk of exploits.

🔍 How Did the Bybit Hack Happen?
Bybit suffered one of the largest crypto exploits in history.
🔸 The hack was likely carried out by North Korea’s Lazarus Group, a state-backed hacking organization.
🔸 Hackers exploited vulnerabilities in Ethereum smart contracts while Bybit was transferring funds internally.
🔸 Bybit claims that the liquidity gap in ETH has now been fully closed.
🤔 Could Ethereum Perform a Rollback? A Throwback to the DAO Hack in 2016
After the attack, several Bitcoin maximalists, including Samson Mow (CEO of JAN3), sarcastically asked Vitalik Buterin if Ethereum would roll back the blockchain to recover the lost funds.
This references the infamous 2016 DAO hack, where after a $60 million ETH exploit, the Ethereum community decided to hard fork, leading to the creation of Ethereum Classic (ETC).
🚨 However, Ethereum has no plans for a rollback this time – the Ethereum team stated that the hacker’s transactions were as valid as any other transaction on the network.
📢 What’s Next? Is Bitcoin’s Dominance Rising?
Back emphasized that Bitcoin is growing in dominance, while Ethereum faces criticism over its EVM security flaws.
⚠️ Could this hack be a wake-up call for the development of safer blockchain technologies?
⚠️ Will Bitcoin and simpler blockchain structures become the future?

Адам Бек, генеральний директор Blockstream і один із піонерів біткоїна, 15 травня 2025 року заявив, що біткоїн залишається недооціненим активом із потенціалом зростання до $1 млн за монету в найближче десятиліття. На момент заяви ціна $BTC
коливається близько $95,000, демонструючи стабільне зростання після халвінгу 2024 року. Бек наголосив, що обмежена емісія біткоїна (21 млн монет) і зростаючий попит від інституційних інвесторів, зокрема через ETF, створюють ідеальні умови для експоненційного зростання.
Він також підкреслив роль біткоїна як захисту від інфляції та глобальної фінансової нестабільності, що особливо актуально для країн, як Україна, де криптовалюти набирають популярності. Прогноз Бека викликав жваві дискусії в криптоспільноті, а аналітики вказують на можливе прискорення зростання завдяки новим технологіям, таким як Lightning Network.
