Craig Wright Lied to UK Court 'Extensively and Repeatedly,' Judge Writes
Summary
Craig Wright was found to have lied extensively and repeatedly in the Crypto Open Patent Alliance case regarding his claim to be Satoshi Nakamoto. Judge Mellor definitively stated that Wright is not Nakamoto and did not create the Bitcoin system. The ruling was celebrated by the crypto industry, which has criticized Wright's legal battles. The Crypto Open Patent Alliance plans to seek injunctions against Wright and may ask U.K. prosecutors to consider perjury charges. Mellor imposed a worldwide freezing order on 6 million British pounds worth of Wright's assets to prevent him from evading court costs.
