Why say Paul Solotshi instead of Paul Le Roux, a name everyone is far more familiar with?

None of the evidence presented was compelling. It was circumstantial at best. Save yourself the five minutes it takes to read this article.

I'd still bet on Hal Finney, RIP.

Every time I read one of these theories it sounds pretty convincing. This one too. Yet they can't all be right.

Why all this silliness? Everyone knows it was made by the grumpy Aussie man.

Seriously. The author apparently considers "both are familiar with payments" evidence.

So sincere question...does this matter? What is added to the social value of bitcoin or cryptocurrency in general?

I'm not asking to just dismiss it...just why we are perpetually having/focusing on this discussion is intriguing to me

Gimlet media released a podcast about him: https://gimletmedia.com/shows/reply-all/dvhd9k/136-the-found...

His huge interest for gold, programming, encryption, and his global distrust of the state makes me believe he can also have created Bitcoin.

At the very least, this story matters just the way general human interest stories matter, as entertainment.
