BREAKING: Crypto Twitter is exploding with rumors that the person in the photo above might be Satoshi Nakamoto — and the name at the center of it is Daira Emma Hopwood. 👀

Daira is a cryptographer and blockchain engineer, known as one of the early core members of the Zcash / Electric Coin Company (ECC) team.

Here’s what’s fueling the speculation 👇

🔹 ECC’s 2019 profile lists her as a “core team member and blockchain engineer.*

🔹 There’s a post where Satoshi Nakamoto mentions Hopwood by name — though unclear if it’s proof of any link.

🔹 In an August 13, 2010 post, Satoshi discussed “key blinding” and group signatures — the exact kind of cryptographic work Daira focused on in Zcash, involving blinded keys and private transactions.

🔹 Theories also cite British spelling and GMT-time activity in Satoshi’s early posts — possibly hinting at a UK connection.

🔹 Public records show that Daira holds British citizenship. 🇬🇧

Speculation or revelation? The debate just reignited one of crypto’s biggest mysteries. 🕵️‍♂️💭
