记者加布里埃尔·盖特豪斯（Gabriel Gatehouse）调查了硬币背后的那个人，他以化名为“ satoshi nakamoto”，并试图了解为什么首先创建了货币。

While there are almost no clues to Satoshi's identity, the former BBC journalist noticed that the anonymous figure used British English in his writing, rather than American English spelling.

虽然几乎没有Satoshi身份的线索，但这位前英国广播公司的记者注意到，这位匿名人物在他的写作中使用了英语，而不是美国英语拼写。

In the first episode of Seeking Satoshi: The Mystery Bitcoin Creator, which was released on YouTube on Monday, Gabriel spoke to Mike Lorry, who claimed to have been there in the early days of crypto.

在寻求Satoshi：周一在YouTube上发行的神秘比特币创作者的第一集中，Gabriel与Mike Lorry进行了交谈，Mike Lorry声称在加密货币的早期就在那里。

Mike claimed he could put the nameless founder down to 'one of a half dozen people' before he started rattling off names of potential candidates.

迈克声称，他可以将无名的创始人放到“六个人之一”之前，然后才开始抛弃潜在候选人的名字。

He claimed the elusive Satoshi could be any from the following selection of names: Hal Finney, Wei Dai, Nick Zabo, Ralph Merkle, Mike Lorrey or Adam Beck.

他声称，难以捉摸的Satoshi可以是以下名称的选择：Hal Finney，Wei Dai，Nick Zabo，Ralph Merkle，Mike Lorrey或Adam Beck。

Gabriel noted that the only British man on his list was indeed Adam, which would explain the British spellings.

加布里埃尔指出，名单上唯一的英国人确实是亚当，这将解释英国的拼写。

Meanwhile he later spotted another clue with links to the UK, as a Times headline buried in the Bitcoin source code.

同时，他后来发现了另一个带有与英国链接的线索，这是一个泰晤士报的标题埋在比特币源代码中。

He said: 'At some point, I thought maybe I can crack this whole case by reading T-shirts, "Chancellor on The Brink of Second Bailout For Banks", this bland headline from The Times of London, Satoshi had buried it in the Bitcoin source code.

他说：“在某个时候，我认为也许我可以通过阅读T恤，“在第二次救助银行的边缘上的总理”，这是伦敦时报的这个平淡的头条新闻，Satoshi将其埋在比特币源代码中。

'It was a message in a bottle, from the very beginning Bitcoin coin was a political project.'

``这是一个瓶子里的信息，从一开始的比特币硬币就是一个政治项目。''

Adam is a British cryptographer and CEO of Blockstream, which he co-founded in 2014.

亚当是Blockstream的英国密码师兼首席执行官，他于2014年共同创立。

He invented Hashcash, which is used in the bitcoin mining process.

他发明了用于比特币采矿过程中的Hashcash。

The broadcaster reached out to Adam, however after failing to get a response he flew to a conference that he was speaking at in Miami.

广播公司与亚当伸出了联系，但是在没有得到回应后，他飞往迈阿密在迈阿密讲话的会议。

Sneaking into a VIP area after the talk, the journalist hoped to get a chance to speak to Adam but was quickly removed by staff.

演讲结束后，记者偷偷溜进了VIP区域，希望有机会与Adam交谈，但很快就被工作人员撤职。

As well as shedding light on Satoshi's true identity, the documentary aimed to understand crypto's political ambitions.

除了阐明萨托西的真实身份外，纪录片旨在了解加密货币的政治野心。

Gabriel said: 'The first anyone heard of Bitcoin was in October 2008. It was the financial crisis the markets were in meltdown, someone posted a paper on a internet forum called the cryptography mailing list.

加布里埃尔说：“第一个听说比特币的人是在2008年10月。这是市场正在崩溃的金融危机，有人在互联网论坛上发布了一篇论文，名为“密码学邮件”列表。

'They said they invested a new sort of money, a kind of digital gold that could be sent over the internet, cutting out the banks.'

“他们说，他们投资了一种新的钱，一种可以通过互联网发送的数字黄金，削减了银行。”

The documentary suggested a potential conspiracy among Silicon Valley elites to obscure the true identity of Satoshi and to undermine democracy.

这部纪录片提出了硅谷精英之间的潜在阴谋，以掩盖萨托西的真实身份并破坏民主。

Seeking Satoshi: The Mystery Bitcoin Creator is set to air on YouTube as five, 20-minute films, before being stitched together and broadcast on TV as a feature-length documentary at the beginning of March.

寻求Satoshi：神秘的比特币创作者将在YouTube上以五张20分钟的电影播放，然后在3月初被缝合在一起并在电视上播出，并在电视上播放。

This release follows HBO’s documentary Money Electric: The Bitcoin Mystery, which claimed that Bitcoin developer Peter Todd might be Nakamoto.

该版本遵循HBO的纪录片《货币电气：比特币之谜》，该神秘声称比特币开发商彼得·托德（Peter Todd）可能是纳卡本（Nakamoto）。

Todd is not among the usual suspects alleged to have launched the first decentralised cryptocurrency in 2008 - but a filmmaker says his credentials and early involvement in Bitcoin 'line up' with what we know about the elusive Satoshi.

托德（Todd）并不是据称在2008年推出了第一次分散的加密货币的通常嫌疑人之一 - 但电影制片人说，他的证书和早期参与了比特币“排队”，我们对难以捉摸的Satoshi的了解。

The 39-year-old vehemently denied being the anonymous founder hours before 'Money Electric: the Bitcoin Mystery' aired, dismissing the claims as 'crazy theories'.

这位39岁的年轻人强烈否认是匿名创始人，几个小时之前，“金钱电气：比特币之谜”播出，将索赔视为“疯狂的理论”。
