According to Odaily Planet Daily, the Cryptocurrency Open Patent Alliance (COPA) accuses Craig Wright of contempt of court and seeks to have him sentenced to up to two years in prison.

COPA argues that Craig Wright's attempt to file a £900 million ($1.1 billion) lawsuit related to the Bitcoin system in October amounts to contempt of court.

In March of this year, a judge ruled that Wright is not Satoshi Nakamoto and prohibited him from continuing lawsuits related to his claim of being Satoshi Nakamoto.
