UK Judge James Mellor Rules Craig Wright is Not Satoshi Nakamoto, Forged Documents
May 20, 2024, 12:22 PM
A UK judge has ruled that Craig Wright, an Australian computer scientist, is not Satoshi Nakamoto, the creator of Bitcoin. The judgment, delivered by British Judge James Mellor, concluded that Wright forged documents and lied extensively in his attempts to prove he was Nakamoto. The written judgment is part of a lawsuit brought by the Crypto Open Patent Alliance (COPA) against Wright. The judge's decision prevents Wright from bringing further lawsuits in the UK related to his claims of being Satoshi Nakamoto. This ruling is seen as a significant victory for the Bitcoin community.
