Former Binance CEO and founder Changpeng Zhao, aka CZ, believes that Bitcoin’s mysterious founder, Satoshi Nakamoto, could very well be an AI from the future. In his recent podcast with Turkish influencers, CZ stated that while it is hard to imagine how it could be that software traveled through time. His remarks were made in jest.
CZ also stated that he never interacted with the genius behind the cryptocurrency; however, he knows people who did interact with the person in the early days. On the theories that Satoshi could be a group of creators, CZ stated that it would have been difficult to keep it a secret if it were so. On April 11, 2011, the anonymous creator of Bitcoin sent a message, a screenshot of which is viral on social media.
In the email, Satoshi stated that he was stepping away from the development of Bitcoin. The message read, “ I’ve moved on to other things. It’s in good hands with Gavin (Andersen) and everyone.
” Satoshi was active on the bitcointalk (dot) org site from November 19, 2009, till December 13, 2010, with his last (575) post on DoS limit. Satoshi Nakamoto was an AI from the future. I was just asked "who I think Satoshi might be" in a live (still on-going) interview from Turkey.
I tweet during meetings all the time. 😆 — CZ 🔶 BNB (@cz_binance) April 27, 2025 Meanwhile, here’s how the internet reacted. One user remarked, “ No doubt — Bitcoin arrived before the world even knew it needed it .
” Another user commented, “ Stephen Hawking debunked time travel, because no one came to his birthday party he hadn’t planned. But what if time travel is indeed real, but we as humans don’t exist anymore in the future and AI doesn’t do birthday parties? ” Yet another user commented, “ Bitcoin is way too outdated and useless as technology to be from the future .” Another netizen shared similar views: “ AI from the future would have used post-quantum crypto.
