Satoshi Nakamoto, Adam Back or Both? 4/10/26

The Bureau of Labor Statistics’ March CPI data revealed an annual inflation rate of 3.3%. Former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg discusses the pressures on American consumers, including an Iran War-prompted energy price surge and DHS funding. NYT investigative journalist John Carreyrou spent years digging into the real identity of bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto and concluded that it is famed computer scientist, Adam Back. Adam Back, though he’s made notable contributions to the foundations of bitcoin, denies the conclusion. Back makes his case directly–and explains why anonymity might be good for bitcoin. Plus, OpenAI has fired at Anthropic in a new memo to shareholders, Kevin Warsh’s Fed nomination hearing was delayed, and a fake research paper fooled AI models.    Pete Buttigieg            15:09 Adam Back                  31:29 Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.
