In this post. Craig Wright, who continues to claim he is Satoshi Nakamoto, is now being held in contempt of court for allegedly violating a restraining order.
It has already been established in court proceedings that Wright's claim that he is Satoshi is false.
Satoshi Nakamoto could face legal consequences if he goes public.
An Australian computer scientist, Craig Wright, who claims to be Satoshi Nakamoto, the anonymous founder of #bitcoin , is facing new legal trouble. He is now facing contempt of court charges in the UK.
the allegations follow a £911 million lawsuit against Square Up Europe, a company owned by Jack Dorsey's Block payment company (formerly Square).
Wright, who claims to be Satoshi Nakamoto, has been in a long-running legal battle with the bitcoin developer. However, the High Court of England and Wales ruled that his claims were untrue.
the Crypto Open Patent Alliance (COPA), which includes #blockchain , sued Wright to prevent him from suing bitcoin developers in the future. The court issued an injunction prohibiting Wright from filing any future lawsuits against Satoshi.
In this lawsuit, COPA claims that Wright's lawsuit against the blockchain violates that injunction.
Wright attended a court hearing today to respond to COPA's motion for contempt. He appeared without an attorney. A contempt hearing has been set for December 18th. Wright's physical presence was also discussed. Wright suffers from autism and therefore stated that he wanted to attend the hearing virtually from Singapore. The judge asked for more evidence of the condition to justify the request for virtual presence.
his identity has been in dispute since the advent of bitcoin in 2009. Wright is one of the loudest voices claiming to be the founder of bitcoin. However, a UK High Court judge says Wright has lied and forged documents to support those claims.
Dr. Wright is an extremely intelligent man. However, in my opinion, he is not as intelligent as he thinks he is.
