Australian Scientist Craig Wright, who issues himself for the creator of Bitcoin, decided to sue the billions of dollars lost. The self-proclaimed “father” of the most popular cryptocurrency reported the stealing keys to the electronic wallets, writes Daily Mail.
Case considers High Court of London. Theft of Bitcoins accuse 16 developers from Bitcoin (BTC), Bitcoin Satoshi Vision, Bitcoin Cash and Bitcoin Cash ABC. Craig Wright informed the consequence that more than a year ago, these developers of cryptocurrencies helped him get 111 thousand bitcoins from two digital addresses and gave it closed access keys. In February 2020, the home network of a computer engineer hacked, because of this, he allegedly lost encrypted keys and the ability to use his cryptocurrency worth 5.7 billion dollars.
The defendants challenged the claim and call the arguments of the scientist-informatics “fake.”
Craig Wright since 2016 argues that it was he who created Bitcoin and in 2008 under the pseudonym Satoshu Dzamoto wrote a fundamental book about cryptocurrency. His statements were repeatedly disputed. In 2018, Wright was accused of illegal assignment of cryptocurrency for five billion dollars. And in February 2020, the head of the Binance Chanpan Zhao Excience in an interview with Cointelegraph said that the Australian scientist had many opportunities to prove the status of the creator of Bitcoin, instead, he disgraces crypto industria and undermines confidence in digital currency.
