 <li>Stephen Mollah's claim of being Bitcoin's creator fell flat during a London press conference, leaving many attendees skeptical.</li>

<p>A British businessman named Stephen Mollah, who is accused of fraud, <a href="https://cryptonewsland.com/peter-todd-responds-to-claims-he-is-bitcoins-creator-satoshi/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">claimed to be Bitcoin's founder</a>, Satoshi Nakamoto. This declaration occurred during a press conference in London on October 31. Mollah aimed to reveal his identity.&nbsp;</p>  
<p>However, his presentation quickly unraveled due to technical issues and a lack of evidence. Joe Tidy, a BBC News cyber correspondent, <a href="https://x.com/joetidy/status/1851951370988859631" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">reported</a> on the event, noting Mollah’s inability to provide substantial proof.</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-technical-difficulties-and-questionable-evidence">Technical Difficulties and Questionable Evidence</h2>  
<p>Mollah attempted to use his laptop for a live demonstration but faced immediate technical difficulties. Consequently, he spoke about his background as an economic and monetary scientist. However, his lengthy narrative frustrated attendees, who were eager for solid evidence.&nbsp;</p>  
<p>Mollah presented what Tidy described as “easy-to-fake screenshots.” When pressed for concrete proof, he promised to demonstrate moving Bitcoin from the Genesis block in the coming months. This vague commitment left many attendees unsatisfied.</p>  
<p>Moreover, the crowd began to dwindle as Mollah struggled to maintain credibility. One observer noted his visibly nervous demeanor. Tidy observed, “Mr. Mollah’s cheek twitched rapidly as he faced a skeptical crowd demanding proof.”&nbsp;</p>  
<p>Such reactions highlighted the growing impatience among journalists and attendees. Arthur van Pelt, a critic of other self-proclaimed <a href="https://www.reuters.com/world/uk/self-proclaimed-bitcoin-inventor-did-not-invent-bitcoin-uk-judge-rules-2024-03-14/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">Satoshis</a>, remarked on Mollah’s lack of coding skills and absence of definitive proof.</p>  
<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-unfulfilled-promises-and-ongoing-mystery">Unfulfilled Promises and Ongoing Mystery</h2>  
<p>The press conference, advertised as a major revelation, ultimately failed to deliver. Promoters claimed Mollah would unveil verifiable proof of Satoshi’s identity. However, no evidence emerged that could substantiate Mollah’s claims.&nbsp;</p>  
<p>The event instead reinforced skepticism surrounding his assertions. Additionally, Mollah and event organizer Charles Anderson face fraud charges related to deceptive <a href="https://cryptonewsland.com/morgan-stanley-reveals-ownership-of-5-5m-shares/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow">claims about Bitcoin ownership</a>. Their trial is set for November 3, 2025.</p>  
<p>As the event concluded, the mystery of Bitcoin’s creator remained unresolved. Mollah’s failure to provide concrete evidence underscores the challenges in verifying such claims. Numerous people have made unsuccessful attempts to identify Nakamoto throughout the years. As things stand, the cryptocurrency world is still unable to identify the mysterious person who created Bitcoin.</p>
