Adam Back, CEO of Blockstream, is speculated to have leveraged a New York Times article naming him as a potential Satoshi Nakamoto for publicity purposes. Industry insiders suggest that Back used the media attention to promote Bitcoin Standard Treasury Company (BSTR), his Bitcoin treasury firm nearing a public listing. The speculation arises as BSTR is finalizing a SPAC merger with Cantor Equity Partners I, involving a $1.5 billion PIPE, marking the largest for a Bitcoin treasury vehicle. BSTR plans to launch with over 30,000 BTC, positioning it among the largest public Bitcoin treasuries. The merger, initially expected to close in Q1 2026, awaits SEC review and shareholder approval. The timing of the NYT coverage coincides with these significant corporate developments, raising questions about Back's intentions.
