Peter Todd, a Bitcoin core developer, has gone into hiding over fears for his safety after an HBO documentary named him Bitcoin’s creator, Satoshi Nakamoto.
Todd denies being Satoshi Nakamoto and claims that the documentary misunderstood his statement.
He has received harassment and threats after being falsely claimed to be extraordinarily wealthy.
The director of the documentary, Cullen Hoback, believes Todd is blowing things out of proportion.
