We won the identity trial against Craig Wright.

Official transcript of the judge's bench ruling:

MR JUSTICE MELLOR: Thank you.

Well, I thank all the parties for their written

closing and oral arguments, and they've been very

helpful indeed. They will require me to prepare

a fairly lengthy written judgment, which will be handed

down in due course. And for all those who have already

been hassling my clerk as to when the judgment will be

ready, the short answer is as follows: it will be ready

when it's ready and not before.

However, having considered all the evidence and

submissions presented to me in this trial, I've reached

the conclusion that the evidence is overwhelming.

Therefore, for the reasons which will be explained in

that written judgment in due course, I will make certain

declarations which I am satisfied are useful and are

necessary to do justice between the parties.

First, that Dr Wright is not the author of

the Bitcoin White Paper.

Second, Dr Wright is not the person who adopted or

operated under the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto in

the period 2008 to 2011.

Third, Dr Wright is not the person who created

the Bitcoin System.

And, fourth, he is not the author of the initial

versions of the Bitcoin software.

Any further relief will be dealt with in my written

judgment. I will extend time for filing any appellant's

notice until 21 days after the form of order hearing,

which will be appointed following the hand down of my

written judgment and I ask the parties to seek to agree

an order giving effect to what I have just stated.

So I'm afraid, for any further information, you'll

to wait for the written judgment.

Coded encoded all the best 🤣🤣🤣

Worth noting that Gregory Maxwell and Pieter Wuille in particular put a huge amount of work into the case, tracking down the technical details that helped us win. Wuille also agreed to testify in person in London. Though in the end his witness statement was so strong he never had to!

There were many more people who helped us win. But I wanted to call out my fellow developer defendants Gregory Maxwell and Pieter Wuille in particular, because their hard work allowed the rest of us to spend more time focusing on our actual work on Bitcoin.

Who funded the scammer?

not all heroes wear capes

Good, now that mother fucker needs to rot in jail along with his pedo backer Calvin Ayre.

Justice at last. Sadly nothing can repair the damage this one supposedly lone actor managed to incur on us all.

how can anyone be both stupid and evil enough to affirmatively claim himself to be the Satoshi😂

Feel a little sorry for CSW’s legal team being forced to polish a turd. Their strategy seemed to hinge entirely on the argument “He must be Satoshi because no-one else has come forward claiming to be Satoshi.” If that’s the best they could come up with, he was fucked from the start.
