In the spirit of NOSTR I'd like to give back 10% of my generous @hodl haul to the first 10 people that answer this question accurately with the correct explanation as to why their answer is correct. '"Brothers and sisters I have none but THAT man's father is my father's son. Who is THAT man?" 10,000 sats to the first 10 people that answer it correctly with correct explanation. Explanation must be included! Contest stops tomorrow at 6pm eastern standard time. Oh ya and 100,000 sats goes to @gabe at the end of the contest for spotting me in the wild. God speed Nostrians!

If we rephrase the statement "my father's son" as "me", we can simplify the riddle to "THAT man's father is me." In other words, the man being referred to is the speaker's son. This is because the speaker is saying that the man's father (who we don't know) is the same person as "me" (i.e., the speaker's father's son). The only person who fits this description is the speaker's son.

So, the answer to the riddle is "the speaker's son."
