This could possibly have some connection to my involuntary hobby-horse.

what if i told you ayres knows CSW is not satoshi, but wants to keep the rouse alive because he had invested so much into CSW in earlier years where they done a deal demanding all story licencing rights (book and movie deal) when media production/producers come calling and asking for rights to make movies about CSW drama

ayres only wants to keep the rouse alive because he is still hoping big movie producers will make a phone call one day offering a large cheque for the real CSW story

There's more at stake than a potential and hypothetical movie deal. There's not much money to be made in a biopic about satoshi. Even authors of hit books are lucky if they get a million or so advance for their work and they already have source material which has a fanbase. Craig doesn't have anything yet and anyone could write a book about this and then sell the rights to it. All craig could give is exclusive access or make it 'official' but you don't need his permission. Calvin is just hoping Craig can con the courts into giving him ownership of bitcoin and the fortune of the early lost coins along with patents on blockchain technology etc. I don't know why he hasn't given up yet but maybe he's in too deep now and might as well see it out till the end. Like most BSV-ers I doubt he actually still believes he is satoshi even if he did at the start, but just has a financial incentive now. I think most BSV-ers are just greedy fools who think this is their opportunity to invest in "bitcoin" at sub £100 prices so they continue the charade in the hope of getting rich.
