Peter Todd is in a very difficult situation. It is difficult to refute absolutely senseless and unsubstantiated accusations.

He plays a role in the documentary with about 20-25 minutes of screen time. He was probably paid by HBO for his appearance. I just watched the documentary.

I downloaded the documentary (torrent) My understanding of the documentary is that Peter Todd invented (created) Satoshi Nakamoto just as he invented (created) John Dillon.

Yes, it’s a very strange situation. I’m not sure if this was someone else's script or his own. Perhaps he didn’t realize how things would turn out in the end. Very odd...

As far as I understand, Peter Todd was set up. First, he was interviewed by a journalist. Then he re-edited, cut out unnecessary parts of the video footage and inserted parts of the video into a documentary.

At the same time, Peter Todd said on camera something like - "I am Satoshi!" This is the standard cry of all cypherpunks. "I am Satoshi! You are Satoshi! We are all Satoshi!"

Life was greatly complicated for Peter Todd, because now he could be hunted by international gangsters and intelligence agencies of different countries. Unfortunately, in our time, you can ruin a person's reputation with impunity by linking his real identity to a digital avatar of a completely different person.

Satoshi Nakamoto was obsessed with maintaining anonymity and privacy. How will Peter Todd now prove that he is not Satoshi Nakamoto?
