​Presented by Charleston Literary Festival x Dig South 

​“The Mysterious Mr. Nakamoto could be the best mystery story of the past twenty years.”—James Patterson

​New York Times bestselling author Benjamin Wallace joins us to present his brand new book The Mysterious Mr. Nakamoto—a gripping investigation into the elusive creator of Bitcoin, Satoshi Nakamoto, and the cryptocurrency’s origins. 

​Blending investigative journalism with a mystery-thriller narrative, Wallace traces Nakamoto’s sudden emergence, revolutionary white paper, and enigmatic disappearance—leaving behind an untouched eleven-figure fortune. 

​As Bitcoin evolved from a libertarian dream to a speculative frenzy, Wallace hunts for its creator across the globe, exploring suspects ranging from cryptographers to the NSA. A riveting exploration of genius, secrecy, and the unintended consequences of technological revolution, this book unravels one of the greatest modern mysteries.
