FILE PHOTO: Australian computer scientist Craig Wright arrives at the Rolls Building of the High Court in London, Britain, February 9, 2024. REUTERS/Toby Melville/File PhotoLONDON : An Australian computer scientist who claimed he invented bitcoin lied"extensively and repeatedly" and forged documents"on a grand scale" to support his false claim, a judge at London's High Court ruled on Monday.
But Judge James Mellor ruled in March that the evidence Wright was not Satoshi was"overwhelming", after a trial in a case brought by the Crypto Open Patent Alliance to stop Wright suing bitcoin developers. The judge added:"All his lies and forged documents were in support of his biggest lie: his claim to be Satoshi Nakamoto."
Wright, who denied forging documents when he gave evidence in February, said in a post on X:"I fully intend to appeal the decision of the court on the matter of the identity issue."
