urgh. against better judgement, i watched it whole. it's dogshite. badly researched, completely uncritical garbage with a sprinkling of conspiracy theories. but most of all, it's just boring.
yeah, len's been one of the suspected creators for quite a while. I haven't seen any of the people who knew len make any statements one way or the other
this is likely too much of a deep cut but “len sassaman” sounds like a parody name that someone would use to roast scott aukerman, the host of CBB and one of the writers of shark tale

What mystery creator? The guy's name is right there in the paper: Satoshi Nakamoto. Isn't he the Pokémon guy or something?

People are speculating it's someone called Len Sassaman, who committed suicide in 2011. Could explain Satoshi's very welcome disappearance.
