ergio Dermain Lerner, a researcher who has extensively analyzed the mining habits of Satoshi Nakamoto, posted his latest findings via a blog post on August 22. Lerner suggests that Satoshi could have been a single individual who used just one computer to mine 1.1 million Bitcoins.
In June 2020, Lerner published conclusions on Satoshi’s early mining activity, noticing that there was a distinctive pattern and that he would adjust his hashrate to allow others to mine
This particular miner was titled “Patoshi”
Patoshi’s blocks can be grouped into 5 categories based on a nonce value, which typically increases with every mining attempt
However, Patoshi worked within a limited range and decreased the nonce value with every attempt; this led to the the idea that the miner was calculating the “5 subranges in parallel, but each subrange internally sequentially”
The long and short of the most recent analysis by Lerner is that Patoshi was using a single CPU with strong multithreading capabilities
The use of a single CPU would suggest that Satoshi was one person, not a group of people
