They're just trying to screw him even harder so the stain that's on his name sticks even more and would linger more than it should, they need to implicate that he did lie about a lot of his claims that he's the person behind the legendary user Satoshi Nakamoto, definitely not a bad idea if you ask me for the court and COPA to do that, that way, there's no way that they can make mistakes that Craig and his team might exploit to make the case against him a bit weaker thus having more chances of lighter sentencing. It's a good thing that this fiasco with Craig is almost over, I'm getting tired seeing this as headlines on crypto news, it's not a fun story to read and it topples over those that really need some attention, I hope that he does change as a person after this is all over, lying really won't get you so far, it's difficult to keep it up and once you're busted, it's difficult to get out of it.
I don't like CW and I never believed he was Satoshi, but I also don't want him to continue being attacked. We have the results, CW is just Faketoshi, that's enough for the market. The best way to punish a fame seeker is to make him forgotten in the history of the crypto market, not to keep mentioning him to give him more media exposure. I don't even want to write his full name!
I've also removed BSV from my watchlist, it should rest in peace with CW's notoriety.
But don't forget there are some damage remaining (e.g. Bitcoin whitepaper on bitcoin.org still blocked for UK visitor) and BSV holder doesn't seem to care much about that CW is faketoshi.
update:
after the march 27th order to freeze assets to the total value of £6m... to avoid asset freezing the sum had to be paid in full to the courts
.. a third party paid £6m to the courts which the courts are holding onto whilst COPA calculate their costs.
the court acknowledge that someone that is not CSW paid the £6m
on april 12th copa filed and the court agreed to a second order to freeze accounts of CSW and 2 businesses to a total value of £1m, again giving CSW the chance to pay in full (by the 16th of april) to avoid asset freezing
there will be a further court update on the 26th of april
https://www.standard.co.uk/news/crime/bitcoin-high-court-london-b1151135.htmlI find it's hard to believe a third party actually pay £6m for faketoshi. Although i also wonder if faketoshi manage to make a loan and use it to make payment under someone else name.
