John McAfee, the creator of McAfee antivirus and computer and cybersecurity genius, promised his fans that he would reveal the true identity of the person behind Bitcoin. McAfee’s earlier tweets hinted that there were a few people in the crypto-space who knew the actual identity of Satoshi Nakamoto.

John McAfee’s recent tweets created a sense of excitement and enthusiasm on social media, as he posted:

I protected the identity of Satoshi. It's time, though, that this be put to bed. Imposters claim to be him, we are spending time and energy in search of him – It's a waste. Every day I will narrow down the identity of Satoshi until he reveals himself, or I reveal him.

McAfee claimed that there was a lot of energy and time being spent on the identity of Satoshi Nakamoto, which led him to divulge tiny bits of information every day until the identity of the creator of Bitcoin becomes public. This recent tweet by McAfee is among a string of responses to the recent controversy surrounding Craig Wright and Calvin Ayre, who are legally serving “harassment and libel” lawsuits to people who had claimed that he [Craig Wright] was a fraud and wasn’t Satoshi Nakamoto.

McAfee updated his previous tweet with another, which read:

How do I know about Satoshi?

Yes, I drink, use drugs, chase women, run from the law – which I have done since I was 19. But it does not obviate the fact that I created a great company whose focus was stopping hackers. I had to know hacking. I am still John Fucking McAfee,

People in the community started narrowing down the names by guessing the most popular people who could have created Bitcoin; some of those guesses include, Hal Finney, Elon Musk, John McAfee, etc.  Some people even suggested that Satoshi Nakamoto should sign a wallet saying “I am not Craig Wright”.
