Coinbase identifies Nakamoto as a risk factor. The cryptocurrency exchange Coinbase, which filed for an IPO last week, identified the creator of Bitcoin, Satoshi Nakamoto, as a risk to the cryptocurrency market in its application documents.
While the shares of the famous billionaire Elon Musk for the crypto money market were defined as a risk, Coinbase, which applied for an IPO, reported that it sees Nakamoto as a risk.
It was stated in the application documents that if the mysterious creator appears, there may be serious declines in Bitcoin prices. In addition, the documents revealed the possibility of Nakamoto's disposal of the Bitcoin portfolio, which is estimated to be over 1 million, as a major risk factor. Nakamoto has been warned that issuing BTCs in his possession could destabilize the market. It is stated that the Bitcoins in the hands of the mysterious creator make up 5 percent of the market.
