Craig Wright Launches Bitcoin Core Legal Battle
The claim filed in the High Court of Chancery Division in London estimates the damages at a staggering £911,050,000,000. The claim bases its figure on the market valuation difference between bitcoin and Bitcoin SV
In a decisive legal battle earlier this year, Justice Mellor of the COPA v Wright trial clarified beyond doubt Craig Wright's claims. He ruled that the evidence against Wright was 'overwhelming,' conclusively stating that Wright is not the author of the Bitcoin White Paper, and is not Satoshi Nakamoto. This case was possibly the worst case of fraud the UK courts have seen.
This definitive judgment hangs over Wright's new legal challenge against the Bitcoin Core developers, where he continues to claim the original bitcoin protocol.
The claim filed in the High Court of Chancery Division in London estimates the damages at a staggering £911,050,000,000. The claim bases its figure on the market valuation difference between bitcoin and Bitcoin SV, the latter of which Wright supports as the true representation of bitcoin's original vision by Satoshi Nakamoto.
Hodlonaut, who has previously won a defamation case against Wright in Norway, criticized Wright’s latest legal action. In the press statement, he said, "When no reputable law firm is willing to keep representing his torrent of lies and forgeries, it is very much in character for Mr. Wright to start using ChatGPT to represent him in ever more delusional legal antics. It will end badly for Mr. Wright, of course.”
