UK High Court Judge Rules Craig Wright is Not Satoshi Nakamoto in 231-Page Judgment
May 20, 2024, 02:14 PM
A UK judge has ruled that Craig Wright, an Australian computer scientist, is not Satoshi Nakamoto, the creator of Bitcoin. Judge James Mellor delivered a detailed 231-page written judgment in the COPA vs. Craig Wright case, stating that Wright lied extensively and forged documents to support his claim. The judgment highlighted that Wright's attempts to prove his identity as Nakamoto were a serious abuse of court procedures. The ruling prevents Wright from bringing further lawsuits in the UK. This decision is seen as a significant victory for the Bitcoin community and the Crypto Open Patent Alliance (COPA), which brought the case against Wright. The judgment also mentioned Wright's use of 'technobabble' to obscure the truth.
