Created by Satoshi Nakamoto, over a decade ago (with each bitcoin's price going as high as $1000 or approximately 7 lakhs), since the inception of bitcoins, Satoshi has hidden his identity from the crowd, putting Gavin Andersen in the front foot.?
While he might have had his personal reasons to hide his identity from the crowd, (the holder of 5% of the total bitcoin supply which is roughly worth $11 billion surely comes to mind) he has finally decided to reveal his identity to the masses.
As per a press release issued by Ivy McLemore & Associates, Satoshi Nakamoto will break the silence on his identity in a three-parter video that will be made live starting this Sunday, August 18 at 4:30AM IST, on the Satoshi Nakamoto Renaissance Holdings website, www.SatoshiNRH.com, and the Ivy McLemore & Associates website, www.ivymclemore.com.
The first part of the reveal series will focus on his country of origin, his education background and qualification, his professional background etc. He would also talk about why he hasn't yet moved his 980,000 bitcoins.

In this series, Nakamoto will also reveal to the masses the role that cyphers and encryption played in accordance to his devotion to Chaldean numerology that were proven to be crucial in the creation of Bitcoin.
The reason Nakamoto has decided to reveal his identity, after all these years, specifically on 18th August will also be revealed in his first video. Moreover, 11 years ago, on this day, Nakamoto registered bitcoin.org through AnonymousSpeech.com, so it surely is an important day for Nakamoto.
In the third part of the video, which is scheduled to be revealed on Tuesday, Nakamoto will introduce? Tabula Rasa, a completely overhauled vision for the rebirth (or rather, reincarnation) of Bitcoin.
