🚨The dispute over the authenticity of the Bitcoin founder has come to an end: Craig Wright, who claims to be Satoshi Nakamoto, was sentenced by a British judge!
The latest news is that Craig Wright, who has always claimed to be the founder of Bitcoin, was sentenced to one year in prison by a British judge on Thursday for contempt of court. However, the sentence is suspended for two years, which means that unless he commits another crime in these two years, he will not have to go to jail.
The cause of this incident is Wright's $1.15 trillion lawsuit against Bitcoin developer and payment company Square. The court found that he violated a previous order that prohibited him from publicly declaring himself as Satoshi Nakamoto and taking legal action based on this identity.
Wright reportedly intends to appeal this ruling. But don't forget that there is also a coalition of cryptocurrency companies called COPA that is also suing him. They want to officially declare that Wright is not Satoshi Nakamoto and limit a series of lawsuits he has filed based on this identity.
After a six-week trial, Judge Mellor said that the "evidence is conclusive" and concluded that Wright is not Satoshi Nakamoto, and accused him of deliberately falsifying documents to support his claims. The judge even said that Wright's actions were "fraudulent means" and that he lied extensively to strengthen his identity as the creator of Bitcoin.
In addition to the contempt of court ruling, the judge also recommended that the Crown Prosecution Service consider criminal charges against Wright for what he called "massive perjury." However, no perjury charges have been brought against him so far.
Wright had previously accused Square and Bitcoin developers of "misrepresenting" Bitcoin, claiming that they changed the original Bitcoin protocol without authorization. But COPA believed that Wright's lawsuit violated the legal ban on him and charged him with contempt of court on five different grounds.
In the end, the judge ordered Wright to stop his legal action against Square and Bitcoin developers and confirmed these contempt of court. Wright had originally planned to attend the hearing, but he didn't show up in the end, saying that he would lose a lot of money. There are rumors that he is now in Asia, possibly Singapore or Indonesia, but no one knows exactly where he is.
