The popularity of digital money is increasing. On Friday, October 20, 2017, the value of Bitcoin digital currency reached a new record by touching the level of US $ 5,991 or Rp 81 million per piece on the Coindeks price index.
This achievement certainly gives its own advantages for some parties. One of the biggest profits was the inventor of Bitcoin, Satoshi Nakamoto. Thanks to the rising value of Bitcoin, this man's fortune soared to US $ 5.9 billion.

Meanwhile, economist and one of the Bitcoin Foundation directors Jon Matonis believes Wright is the inventor of Bitcoin.
"During a session in London, I had the opportunity to review relevant data in three ways: cryptology, social and technical, I believe that Craig Wright meets all of those categories," Matonis explains...
