Searching For Satoshi: The Mysterious Disappearance of the Bitcoin Creator comes from Paul Kemp Productions, with All3Media International producing in association and taking distribution rights. It will premiere on CBC’s doc strand ‘The Passionate Eye’ late this year.

The doc will explore clues Nakamoto left and identify five candidates who may be the enigmatic character, two dead and three alive. There will also be expert commentary from authors, podcasters, traders and Bitcoin miners, to provide insight into Nakamoto’s identity and unpack the story of Bitcoin itself.
“There are few people in the world who haven’t heard of Bitcoin, but many won’t have heard about the complex mystery surrounding its creator,” said Rachel Job, SVP Non-Scripted at All3Media International. “Revealing a story that has enough plot twists, hidden clues and red herrings to rival the best fictional detective drama, this beautifully crafted documentary takes viewers to the heart of the mystery, thoroughly investigating the evidence and offering incredible access to those involved.”
Job added working with producers such as Paul Kemp Productions, which is behind docs such as The Rise of Jordan Peterson, Nike’s Big Bet
