He’s not Satoshi, he’s a very naughty boy

Another fun read from the FT's Alphaville team into the current Craigtoshi saga (the Australian former pastor and polymath who claims to be bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto). "It seems like the life of Craigtoshi has the makings of a West End musical one day. Or at least a Netflix series.

A strange concern for Wright, particularly given that he told all of us at Vaudeville — or #ftalphavillepresentsvaudevillethefyrefestivaloffinance — last month that he was going to give away an $8bn bitcoin stash (at then-current market rates) to charity, which was widely reported, by publications including Calvin Ayre’s own Coingeek. Surely this is not, then, a revelation for his kids? We presume that Wright still intends to give away the other few billion, so why will this affect their whole lives?
