📺 Who Will HBO Present as Satoshi Nakamoto?
🎰 Bets are already being placed on Polymarket regarding who will be identified as Satoshi in HBO's upcoming documentary.
Leading the pack is Len Sassaman with 39% of the votes. He tragically took his own life in 2011 after battling depression and is considered a potential Bitcoin creator due to his extensive work in cryptography and commitment to privacy and decentralization principles.
👀 Interestingly, the timing of his death aligns with when Satoshi Nakamoto stopped posting on BTCTalk. In second place is Hal Finney with 18%, known for receiving the first Bitcoin transaction from Satoshi.
Adam Back has 7%, while other candidates garner little interest, and Elon Musk receives less than 1%. 😁

🚨 $5.5 million stolen from EigenLayer! ☔️
🥷 A hacker compromised an investor's email and sent a fake message to EigenLayer, providing their wallet address. As a result, 1.6 million $EIGEN, worth $5.5 million, was sent to that address. 💰
The culprit sold the tokens through a DEX, but for some reason, withdrew the stablecoins to centralized exchanges. The team tracked these movements, contacted the CEX, and the funds were frozen. 😁

🐳 Ancient BTC whale sends $3.58 million to an exchange!
This whale mined BTC just a month after the cryptocurrency network launched in 2009—he might have even chatted with Satoshi Nakamoto! With $72.5 million still in his wallet, it looks like he’s either eyeing a luxury home or looking to stack up on altcoins. 🏡💰
Definitely a wallet to keep an eye on! 😏
By the way, HBO claims they'll reveal Satoshi Nakamoto's identity next Wednesday. Curious to see if they have real evidence or if they’re just riding the hype of a mystery that has puzzled crypto enthusiasts for years! 📺✨
