Man who falsely claimed to be bitcoin creator sentenced for continuing to sue developers
You all know who I am talking about. He is the most well known Faketoshi. I do not know what happened to Craig Wright for continuing suing bitcoin developers in the cases he has lost all the time. The court has said he is not Satoshi Nakamoto but he still continues to sue bitcoin developers. He has now been sentenced to 12 moths in prison.
On Thursday Wright was sentenced for five counts of contempt of court. Sentencing him to 12 months in jail, suspended for two years and to pay £145,000 in costs within a fortnight, the court also struck out his enormous claim.
The court has been so lenient on him. He has reigned for so long that I began to suspect a kind of conspiracy between him and the US government. Sentencing him is a kind of relief to my memory but I suspect that after 12 months CW will continue his frivolous claims. Maybe it is time we accept his behaviour to be part of the industry drama that will ensure for a long period of time (as long as he lives and bitcoin exists).
