Court rules McCormack defamed Criag Wright by calling him a fraud.

August 1, 2022

The judge concluded that McCormack caused "serious harm" to Wright's reputation.

The judge awarded Dr. Criag Wright only nominal damages of £1.

The judgment concluded that Wright advanced false evidence in his defamatory case against Peter McCormack.

Cormack had publicly said Wright "is not Satoshi," and further called him "a liar" and "a fraud."

McCormack’s comments caused Wright financial damage through being disinvited to speak at various events and conferences.

However, the court ruled self-proclaimed Satoshi advanced a deliberately false case as to the dis-invitations from academic conferences.

Craig Wright is involved in several lawsuits over his claims to be the real Satoshi Nakamoto.
