Australian Craig Wright falsely claimed to be the creator of Bitcoin and demanded rights to the cryptocurrency’s whitepaper. However, the High Court of England and Wales found that he repeatedly lied and forged evidence. The judge ruled against him, ordering Wright to publicly acknowledge his deceit and potentially face prosecution for perjury and forgery.
From the meeting notes, the key takeaways are:
– Australian Craig Wright has admitted he is not the inventor of Bitcoin after losing multiple cases in the High Court of England and Wales.
– The judge suggested that he should be investigated for perjury due to evidence of lying to the court and extensive forging of proof.
– Wright is required to publish a message on his personal website, X account, and Slack channels, stating that he is neither Satoshi Nakamoto nor the inventor of Bitcoin.
– He has also been ordered to pay more than £6 million of COPA’s costs and may face legal action from the UK’s Crown Prosecution Service for forging documents and perjury.
These are the main points from the meeting notes. Let me know if you need further details or information.
