The Mysterious Mr. Nakamoto, journalist Benjamin Wallace's book about the pseudonymous creator of bitcoin, gives you more details than you likely need if you just want an engaging, informative read on a story that savvy crypto watchers know is not apt to reach an illuminating or surprising conclusion.
Yep, Wallace fails (like everyone else who has tried) to unarguably reveal the true identity of "Satoshi Nakamoto"—a person (with an earth-shatteringly valuable pile of bitcoin) who has been off the public playing field for over a decade. Wallace rises above the credulous and the cranky in the Satoshi-unmasking field by not insisting he's cracked the case.
