Claiming to be Bitcoin (BTC) Inventor Craig Wright Won't Give Up! Filed a New $1.2 Billion Lawsuit!
Bitcoin SV founder Craig Wright has filed a new lawsuit against Bitcoin Core developers.
Craig Wright, who has claimed many times that he is Satoshi Nakamoto, the founder of Bitcoin, but has not been able to prove it, does not give up.
According to Forbes, Bitcoin SV founder Craig Wright has filed a new lawsuit against Bitcoin Core developers.
Despite the negative decision of the UK High Court against the claim that he is Satoshi Nakamoto, Craig Wright has reignited the Bitcoin debate by claiming in his new lawsuit that Bitcoin SV (BSV) is the real Bitcoin.
Taking aim at Bitcoin once again, Wright has demanded £911 million ($1.18 billion) in damages, claiming that changes like SegWit and Taproot misrepresented BTC as the original Bitcoin.
It was stated that the damages in the case were based on the market valuation difference between Bitcoin and Bitcoin SV.
Other details regarding the lawsuits filed by Wright, who stated that Bitcoin SV is the real and original version of Bitcoin, remain unclear.
Craig Wright’s ongoing legal actions against Bitcoin developers have been met with harsh criticism. Hodlonaut, a prominent figure in the crypto community who previously won a defamation case against Wright, expressed his disbelief at the new lawsuit.
Bitcoin SV price has risen by more than 3% in the last 24 hours as Craig Wright reignites the Bitcoin debate.
What Happened?
The Crypto Open Patent Alliance (COPA) filed a lawsuit against Craig Wright seeking a ruling that he is not Bitcoin’s pseudonymous creator, Satoshi Nakamoto, in an effort to prevent him from suing other developers or claiming intellectual property rights over the technology.
UK Judge James Mellor ruled in March this year in the case brought by the Crypto Open Patent Alliance (COPA) against Craig Wright and found that Wright is not Satoshi Nakamoto.
Despite this definitive ruling, Wright continues to claim that BSV is the original Bitcoin and continues to make new moves against Bitcoin Core developers.
