The search goes on: Musk is not Nakamoto

Elon Musk, a billionaire entrepreneur and owner of companies such as Tesla and SpaceX, has come out to the public spotlight to debunk rumors spread about a week ago, where a former employee of his aerospace services company suggested the possibility that his ex-employer could be the mysterious Bitcoin creator, Satoshi Nakamoto.
