Two distinct books published under Satoshi Nakamoto’s name have recently showed up on Amazon.
As per Amazon, both of the books — Wave and Ripple Design Book and The Official Bitcoin Coloring Book — are planned for release on June 28. The profile of the writer clarifies that he for sure professes to be the equivalent Satoshi Nakamoto who made Bitcoin (BTC):
“Satoshi Nakamoto is the renowned inventor of Bitcoin.”
The writer’s profile likewise expresses that “100% of his book royalties to support STEM and environmental education programs serving underprivileged youth.” The store portrayals of the books themselves apparently contain inside jokes about the cryptocurrency space and the fantasy of Satoshi Nakamoto.
Wave and Ripple Design Book, for example, seems to indicate both the Japanese roots of the bitcoin maker’s pseudonym, as well as to Ripple (XRP):
“A wonderful selection of wave and ripple designs curated by Satoshi Nakamoto. […] Yuzan’s designs were often used by Japanese craftsmen in the early 1900s to adorn their wares with wave and ripple patterns.”
The second book, The Official Bitcoin Coloring Book, contains more obvious jokes, for example, expressing that it has been “printed on a brilliant white paper.” The item page likewise shows publication audits by Etheorum maker Vitallike Buttering, J.P. Morgain CEO Diamond James, and billionaire investor and Chairman of the Bored Buffet Warden, all incorrect spellings of people and associations well known within the space.
As Cointelegraph recently detailed, many have professed to be the secretive Satoshi over the last 10 years, yet their statements have dependably been met with skepticism and have come up short on any substantive proof.
Toward the finish of May, a Chinese citizen residing in California claimed copyright to bitcoin’s white paper, claiming to be Satoshi Nakamoto. This copyright claim went ahead the impact points of an indistinguishable one by Craig Wright, who has since quite a while ago pronounced himself to be the creator of bitcoin, in spite of public backlash and his very own periodic slip-ups while keeping up that narrative.
