I guested on QAA (formerly Qanon Anonymous) answering their questions about Fred and telling some stories, there are a few repeats from my podcast's episodes on him but there's plenty new and I had so much fun interacting with a show I've been aware of for so long! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/t...

We had Fredrick Brennan on the QAA podcast several times. He always had valuable insights on the technical aspects of imageboards, internet history, and the Watkins duo. He was notoriously temperamental but speaking to him left little doubt about the sincerity of his hatred for 8chan and QAnon.

I want to memorialize Fred tonight by posting pictures from our years together. He became my friend in late 2023, my employer in early 2024, and my partner for the last six months of his life. He's basically been my entire life ever since I moved to Atlantic City in summer of 2024.

Fredrick Brennan has died, apparently in his sleep. We went through some crazy sh*t together filming Q: Into the Storm. Fred was one of the most complicated people I’ve ever known, his flavor of genius unmatched. He was hilarious, occasionally dangerous and eccentric in all the best ways.

A dormant 2011 Satoshi-era wallet finished moving 80,000 BTC—over $9.6B. If that’s one person, they quietly became one of the 400 richest people on Earth. Adam Back’s Blockstream recently did a 30,000 BTC OTC deal. Same coins?

Trump launched his own meme coin overnight and swiftly appeared to make more than $25 billion on paper for himself and his companies. www.axios.com/2025/01/18/t...

Trump launched a meme coin and it became worth $32 billion overnight
Companies associated with the president-elect own as much as 80% of the supply.

I'm watching @cullenhoback.bsky.social Money Electric finally and if Peter Todd isn't Satoshi, the way everyone acts so fucking weird makes me wonder if they accidentally killed the real Satoshi at a coked up party or something

Q influencer Liz Crokin’s new interest in Bitcoin has led her to discover Bitcoin Pizza Day—when 10k Bitcoin was paid for 2 pizzas. She baked it as a Pizzagate style conspiracy.

I asked Liz Crokin if she thought the earth was flat. She said she didn’t know. 🤷

Peter Todd appears to slip-up in interview with Bitcoin Magazine NL, says “when I started Bitcoin.” In Money Electric, we suggest Peter Todd may be Satoshi. There has been ongoing debate since release.

Watched Money Electric last night. Fully convinced, that Peter Todd created Bitcoin. And fun that the creator @cullenhoback.bsky.social is on here already

Can’t stress enough if you plan to attend a protests, turn your phone off miles from the site & don’t turn it back on until you’re miles away. Go ahead and buy a faraday bag. It’s not crazy.

I just joined Bluesky. After Q: Into the Storm’s release, I dropped off social media to investigate Bitcoin’s origins and those trying to make it the global reserve currency. Our findings were just released on HBO. The film is called Money Electric: The Bitcoin Mystery Here to fill in the blanks!

The identity of the inventor of bitcoin might be the internet’s most enduring and consequential mystery. Now, the creator of a new HBO documentary thinks he may have solved the riddle.

Bitcoin’s inventor is a mystery. An HBO filmmaker thinks he found him.
The HBO documentary explores the mystery of bitcoin’s creator, Satoshi Nakamoto, and suggests Peter Todd as a potential candidate.

Elon has been posting QAnon memes and dog whistles for years now and when I asked him why he just said "lol" and now he's close friends with the president-elect www.washingtonpost.com/technology/2...

QAnon, adrift after Trump’s defeat, finds new life in Elon Musk’s Twitter
Musk has become so popular in QAnon circles that some regard him, not Trump, as the savior-like figure they’ve been waiting for.

We’re on the brink of anointing an anonymous figure as the wealthiest person on the planet. I’m convinced Satoshi Nakamoto is alive. For those unfamiliar with Bitcoin’s origins, that’s why we made Money Electric. It lays out years of research that point to someone unexpected.

Viral conspiracy theories by some liberal accounts, which claim Elon Musk's Starlink was used to rig the election for Donald Trump, are among the wildest I've seen and on a par with right-wing claims Venezuela or Italy hacked voting machines to win the 2020 election for Biden.

My new HBO Max doc, Money Electric: The Bitcoin Mystery, dives headfirst into the battle over the future of money and the unexpected players pulling the strings. When $40M prediction markets and hacking attempts start before we even air, you know something big is at stake.
