It turns out that there is an intriguing connection between the price of Bitcoin and the identity of its founder, Satoshi Nakamoto.

Cryptocurrency analytics firm Alphractal has revealed an intriguing pattern in its latest report: Increases in Wikipedia page views for “Satoshi Nakamoto” and other dubious candidates often coincide with Bitcoin’s price rallies.

The report reveals that during the Bitcoin bull rally, pages of people commonly associated with Satoshi Nakamoto, such as Hal Finney, Nick Szabo, and Dorian Nakamoto, experienced a significant increase in traffic.

Alphractal’s analysis shows that Satoshi Nakamoto’s official Wikipedia page saw dramatic increases in views during certain periods of the Bitcoin price frenzy. Interestingly, the most significant increases occurred in October 2017, October 2020, and October 2024, coinciding with major turning points in Bitcoin’s price history.

The timing of these spikes may not be random. Bitcoin’s whitepaper was published on October 31, 2008, marking the birth of the crypto revolution. The report suggests that October had a symbolic resonance for the Bitcoin community, increasing interest in Satoshi’s identity as the market heated up.

At the Blockchain Association Policy Summit, U.S. Senators Gillibrand and Lummis stated that the "Crypto Market Structure Bill" is expected to have its draft released by the end of this week, with revisions and hearings scheduled for next week. The bill aims to establish clear boundaries for digital assets by adopting a classification-based regulatory framework, clearly distinguishing between digital commodities and digital securities, and providing a pathway for exemptions for mature blockchains to ensure that regulation does not stifle technological progress. The bill also requires digital commodity trading platforms to register with the CFTC and establishes a joint advisory committee to prevent regulatory gaps or overlapping oversight.
