The secretive billionaire inventor of Bitcoin is preparing to finally reveal his identity this weekend, tech industry sources have claimed.
A mysterious figure who used the false name Satoshi Nakamoto to launch a digital currency, which fuels a shadow economy worth billions of dollars, is understood to be planning to reveal his true identity in the coming days.
It has been alleged that this man is Craig Wright, an Australian academic.
Bitcoin is known as a "cryptocurrency" which allows users to carry out transactions without needing to use a central bank.
It has allowed drug dealers and other criminals to sell their wares online while withholding their own identities.
A source with close ties to the cryptograpy community and telecoms industry told The Mirror that the story had already been sent to select media under an embargo which lifts this weekend.
