Crypto Attorney Sues US Government To Unmask Satoshi Nakamoto, Creator Of Bitcoin
Posted On April 8, 2025
In another interesting twist in the Satoshi Nakamoto saga, cryptocurrency lawyer James Murphy sued the U.S. government in an attempt to determine the identity of the pseudonymous Bitcoin (CRYPTO: BTC) creator.
What happened: Murphy, known as MetaLawMan on X, said he filed a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit against the Department of Homeland Security, seeking details about an interview DHS supposedly had with Satoshi.
Murphy’s case relied on assertions made by DHS Special Agent Rana Saoud at a 2019 conference where she stated that DHS officers were able to find and interview Satoshi Nakamoto in California. She added that Satoshi was not alone in creating Bitcoin and that there were “three other people.”
