Jury orders Craig Wright, the self-proclaimed Bitcoin inventor Satoshi Nakamoto, to pay US$100 million in intellectual property theft

[Redaktion]

The verdict in the Kleiman v. Wright lawsuit, sometimes called the "Satoshi Nakamoto trial," is in, and Mr. Wright has to pay US$100 million in intellectual property damages to the plaintiff. Filed by the heirs of the deceased David Kleiman, the lawsuit aimed to prove that the alleged Bitcoin founder Satoshi Nakamoto was a collective of Mr. Kleiman and Mr. Wright hence they are entitled to their fair share of the 1.1 million bitcoins their undertaking mined. None of those bitcoins had to be accessed during the trial, as the focus was on the intellectual property of the joint venture, so the verdict couldn't definitively solve the Satoshi Nakamoto conundrum.

[Proof of Satoshi absent!]

What a scammer, simply sign a message and release it publicly for us to validate, or STFU!  Anything else is dubious, and in this case provable fakery.

This lawsuit presented no evidence either party had anything to do with inventing Bitcoin, or being anything close to that.  This trial focused on whether Mr Wright ("Faktoshi") stole bitcoins from a business partner, which he did.  That's not a victory, that's a loss.

Not only did they not prove whether there was any involvement with Satoshi, it's probably that "Faktoshi" doesn't even have any bitcoins back then, there was evidence he bought some from Mt. Gox.

Why this scammer still gets air time is testament to Bodog's PR and marketing, no wonder they make so much money.

No one knows who these people are he's really just trolling the system like the look on his face just says he doesn't care and he expects the reactions of those who want to destroy crypto currencies not yet it's not their time yet. But soon they'll crack the code but let's hope most of us will be rich before they do

let's hope most of us will be rich before they do

Most of whom? You can't have a world where most of the people are rich. By definition. The rich are always a small minority. Unless you define rich non-materialistically. Indeed, everyone can be rich in the spiritual sense. As it's not a shared resource. My enlightenment doesn't diminish in any way your ability to be enlightened. Materialistic world is a world of shared and finite resources. And so is the world of Bitcoin - even more so, by design, out of fear of inflation (in my eyes, a serious design flaw that makes it not fit for purpose as currency).
