Former Coworker Regrets Helping Reveal Identity of Bitcoin's Founder

Satoshi Nakamoto, long considered to be the pseudonym of the person or persons who created Bitcoin, is most likely the real name of the man who founded the cryptocurrency. Leah McGrath Goodman at Newsweek found Nakamoto, a 64-year-old model train-enthusiast, in his driveway after interviewing people who worked with him and his family. And now Gavin Andresen, a lead bitcoin developer who talked to Goodman for the story, is saying he regrets that decision to cooperate. I'm disappointed Newsweek decided to dox the Nakamoto family, and regret talking to Leah. — Gavin Andresen (@gavinandresen) March 6, 2014
