Richard Werner, formerly on the ECB's "Shadow Council," describes how Satoshi Nakamoto, the supposed originator of Bitcoin, translates to "Central Intelligence."

"The secret service agencies... like to... give hints, because... they'd like to be talked about, but they have to work in secret."

---------------Partial transcription of clip---------------

"They give you some hints [about the origins of Bitcoin]. For example, I mean, I've said this many years ago. You know, having lived in Japan for 12 years, I was interested in the fact that the alleged legendary or apocryphal founder of bitcoin, is called Satoshi Nakamoto. Now, I thought, okay, what does that mean? Satoshi Nakamoto. And then there was no such person. People saying, is it this person or that person? But nobody really seemed to be the actual Satoshi Nakamoto.

"But that's the sort of name they used. It is a Japanese name. Okay? If it's a Japanese name, well, then let's treat it like a Japanese name. Which means, step one, put it in the order of Japanese names. Now, in all Asian languages, you put the family name first. So it's Nakamoto Satoshi. That's step one.

"Step two, write it in Japanese. And if we had a board, I'd write it down. So they actually use Chinese characters for this. Nakamoto is very, very simple. It's naka, which is also part of the name for China. The center, the central kingdom, you know. And moto is the second character of Japan. The origin of the sun. The origin. So center, origin. And Satoshi is the Chinese character for wisdom or intelligence.

"Now, you often use two characters to emphasize one concept, which is how you could read this. So this could mean very central. So center and then moto together is really central. Okay. And, satoshi you can translate as intelligence. So we're really saying this name means central intelligence.

"You've got to at least have some basic understanding of Japanese and writing these in Japanese. But I think they, the secret service agencies, they, they like to sometimes give hints, you know, because really, they'd like to be talked about, but they have to work in secret."
