Bankless · Is Bitcoin Going According to Plan? Gold, Saylor, Satoshi | Dan Held · 13 Jul 2026 podcast

Like how soon does this need to be resolved?

I think it's the bigger question.

And Nick was kind of raising the alarm, which I applaud him for his efforts.

I also think he was a bit too critical of various efforts that were going on.

I don't think people were just like, oh, this isn't a problem.

I think it was more of like, it's going to be a problem, but it's going to be a little while from now.

I think game theoretically that given how advanced AI is getting, that the AI coming up with solutions to make quantum computing more effective will likely lead to its adoption sooner than later.

So I do think that five-year timeline, while previously was considered extremely aggressive,

I think is a safe one.

I think even with AI breakthroughs on, you know, building quantum computers, I still think five years would be pretty aggressive in terms of when we think QDA might occur.

You know, I'm kind of a Hal Maxey, like a Hal Finney Maxey.

Sure.

To me, he embodies it.

Yeah, what's interesting is that I had a question posed to me once.

Given more and more time, will it become more or less likely that we find Satoshi?

Which I thought was super interesting.

And I think it's more likely we would have found him sooner.

And I think the more time that progresses, it's less likely that we find him.

Even though our ability to analyze his text and look at all the data we have becomes better with AI, there is data decay that is occurring.

emails, written communication logs that are slowly being deprecated and or erased that would have been help us definitively find who Satoshi is.
