Bitcoin is the first implementation of a concept called "cryptocurrency", which was first described in 1998 by Wei Dai on the cypherpunks mailing list, suggesting the idea of a new form of money that uses cryptography to control its creation and transactions, rather than a central authority. The first Bitcoin specification and proof of concept was published in 2009 in a cryptography mailing list by Satoshi Nakamoto. Satoshi left the project in late 2010 without revealing much about himself. The community has since grown exponentially with many developers working on Bitcoin.
All this time Bitcoin currency is known to be made by Satoshi Nakamoto, but nobody ever knows who the mysterious figure is. His name is like a Japanese citizen, but many who doubt that he is as the name.
recently Australian police have reportedly raided a house that allegedly became the residence of the founder of Bitcoin.
The house is home to Craig Steven Wright, and based on Wired's site search, he is strongly suspected to be the brains behind the making of the Bitcoin currency .
