The Mystery of Satoshi Nakamoto ContinuesIn the case that concluded in March, the British court ruled that Wright is not Satoshi Nakamoto. Wright's claim for £900 billion in intellectual property ended with a contempt of court charge. Wright, who participated in the court via video link, avoided disclosing his physical location. Nevertheless, he announced that he would appeal the decision. This ruling, which is a significant turning point for the cryptocurrency sector, indicates that discussions about the true identity of Bitcoin's creator will continue. According to data from blockchain analysis firm Arkham, Satoshi Nakamoto is estimated to have assets of up to 1.1 million Bitcoins.
