Dr. Craig Wright vs. COPA: The Judgment Day
The full written judgment in the Dr. Craig Wright vs. COPA case was released this morning, May 20. The document includes damning indictments of Dr. Wright's actions during the trial. The court found him guilty of extensive and repeated lies.
"Dr. Wright lied to the court extensively and repeatedly. Most of his lies were related to the documents he had forged that purported to support his claim. All his lies and forged documents supported his biggest lie: his claim to be Satoshi Nakamoto."
The judge said Wright forged documents to support his claim of being Satoshi Nakamoto, the anonymous Bitcoin creator. The justice also said Wright's statements were full of inconsistencies and fabrications.
Unmasking the Deception
The court's judgment report exposes Dr. Wright's massive lies. It claims that if his claims were genuine, he would be an unfortunate individual beset by implausible coincidences and conspiracies.
However, the court determined that the simpler and more plausible explanation is that Dr. Wright has been dishonest for years, fabricating evidence to support his assertions.
The judge pointed out that Dr. Wright's extensive fabrications and forgeries were exposed during the trial.
"These fabrications and forgeries were exposed in the evidence I received during the trial. Therefore, this judgment contains considerable technical and other details required to expose the true scale of his mendacious campaign and prove he was/is Satoshi Nakamoto."
The Evidence Speaks
The detailed judgment outlines the technical and other forms of evidence that revealed the extent of his deceptive campaign to convince the court and the public of his claim to be Satoshi Nakamoto.
The court concluded that the evidence overwhelmingly demonstrated that Dr. Wright was not the author of the Bitcoin White Paper or the person who adopted the Satoshi Nakamoto pseudonym between 2008 and 2011. The judgment further asserted that Dr. Wright did not create the Bitcoin system or the initial versions of the Bitcoin software.
"I concluded the evidence was overwhelming... Dr Wright is not the author of the Bitcoin White Paper."
The Road Ahead
While the judgment document did not specify particular punishments or remunerations for Dr. Wright, it indicated that further relief, including potential injunctive measures sought by the plaintiffs, would be addressed in a subsequent hearing following the judgment's hand down. This means the case is not entirely over, and there could be more legal consequences for Dr. Wright shortly.
Conclusion
The judgment's revelation is a significant moment in the ongoing saga of Dr. Craig Wright. The court's findings have exposed the depth of his fabrications, casting a long shadow over his claims to be the legendary Bitcoin creator. The world now waits to see what actions will be taken against him in light of this judgment.
