Highlights
- Craig Wright has once again sued Bitcoin Core developers
- The exact claims in this suit remains unclear
- The quest to unravel Satoshi Nakamoto took a new twist this month
In an unprecedented move, Australian Computer Scientist Dr. Craig Wright has filed another legal claim against Bitcoin Core developers. As spotted by BitMEX Research, the Caseboard legal suit tracker showed that Craig Wright filed the case on October 10, 2024.
The New Claim From Craig Wright
Per the details on Caseboard, Craig Wright appears to be making a partnership claim against Bitcoin Core and Square Up Europe Ltd. While ambiguous, the Claim hinges on a partnership deal involving the listed defendants.
As BitMEX Research confirmed, no one knows what the Satoshi Nakamoto impersonator plans to establish with this new suit. However, the research platform highlighted that he cannot claim the Satoshi identity again.
The reason for this positioning is simple as CSW cannot go against the injunction in the main identity case from earlier this year. After years of legal battle, a court in the United Kingdom ruled that he is not the Bitcoin creator. This ruling ended months-long legal battle that pitches Craig Wright as the forefront of Bitcoin innovation.
Following the ruling, the court even asked him to publicly declare that his Satoshi claims are a hoax. With no certainty on his what the major contention is at the moment, many questions have risen on that the surfaced in the community.
For example, many wondered where he filed the suit and whether he will represent himself. In offering clarity, BitMEX Research noted that he may not need show up for court. However, this does not negate the fact that Craig Wright may have to represent himself.
Who Created Bitcoin: The Satoshi Nakamoto Quest
The question of who created Bitcoin remain one of the greatest mysteries over the past decade. While it is confirmed that Craig Wright is not Satoshi Nakamoto, HBO sought out to unravel Bitcoin’s creator.
With pent up anticipation, HBO finally named Peter Todd as Satoshi Nakamoto. The assumption that Todd is the founder of Bitcoin came from his work in cryptography and his public musings on the subject. However, Todd has denied the claims publicly on social media.
Before the Peter Todd identity came up, Polymarket bettors placed bets on Len Sassaman as the mysterious founder of BTC. However, the entire assumptions have been proven wrong. This leaves the ecosystem in more confusion with Satoshi’s identity still hidden overall.
