Craig Wright finally admits he is not Satoshi Nakamoto

Dr. Craig S Wright, the man who for years claimed to be Satoshi Nakamoto, has formally admitted that he is not, in fact, the creator of Bitcoin.

“Dr. Craig Steven Wright is not Satoshi Nakamoto,” the computer scientist wrote in a tweet on Wednesday. Wright followed up with a summary of the High Court of England and Wales ruling on his identity earlier this year, during the which UK judge James Mellor said the evidence against Wright’s claims was “overwhelming”. He also highlighted the court’s finding that he had “lied to the Court extensively and repeatedly” and falsified documents “on a large scale ” in order to bolster his claims. “By advancing his false claim to be Satoshi through multiple legal actions, Dr. Wright committed a ‘very serious abuse’ of the process of the courts in the UK, Norway and the US,” he add Wright The statement, which reverses Wright’s claims to the contrary for years, follows a Tuesday court order requiring Wright to post the court notice on his website, Slack and account X for at least six months. Mellor has also referred Wright’s court misconduct to the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) to consider charging him with perjury following his false testimony. “Dr. Wright has been ordered not to initiate any legal proceedings based on his false claims (by claim or counterclaim) or to cause any other person to do so,” Wright’s notice concludes.
