In the past 24 hours, following XRP and market-related developments, there has been talk around Bitcoin pseudonym creator Samoto, with Bitcoin creator's $125 billion BTC stash garnering speculation.
On past days, Crypto Reporter Eleanor Terrett tweeted that he would moderate the panel along with the creator of a new documentary that he sets out to uncover the mystery of Nakamoto, the elusive founder of Bitcoin.
Terrett said he failed, saying he believes that several recent films have unlocked the mystery of Bitcoin's founder and that many in the community should remain anonymous.
The post attracted attention from the crypto community, including those from XRP, and rekindled speculation that Ripple CTO David Schwartz knew who Satoshi was and whether Satoshi was himself. X user responded and suggested asking Schwartz about who Satoshi was, perhaps as a sacred comment, but Ripple CTO said he didn't know.

In a tweet by Hartfeld, Schwartz announced that he is retreating from his current role as Ripple CTO to join the company's board of directors. In his tweet, Schwartz said he could observe the early stages of Bitcoin and had the privilege to raise Satoshi's speculation once more.
In response to a tweet about Schwartz's resignation, the XRP Ledger Marketplace First Ledger joked, “Imagine Satoshi's wallet awakening.”
Ripple CTO is often appointed as a potential candidate for Satoshi, and he continues to deny it.
