UK Judge Rules Craig Wright is Not Satoshi Nakamoto, Bans Further Lawsuits
May 20, 2024, 11:03 AM
A UK judge has ruled that Craig Wright is not Satoshi Nakamoto, the creator of Bitcoin. The written judgment, delivered by Judge Mellor, determined that Wright forged evidence in his attempt to claim the identity of Nakamoto. This decision is a significant victory for the Cryptocurrency Open Patent Alliance (COPA), which has been contesting Wright's claims. The judgment prevents Wright from bringing further lawsuits in the UK related to this matter. The court's findings highlight that Wright's claims were supported by a series of forgeries and lies, undermining his assertion of being the central figure behind Bitcoin's creation.
