However, the claim has no basis in reality as when the Copyright Office receives an application for registration, it does not investigate the truth of any statement made in that application, nor the identities of people registering for copyright. The Office told the Financial Times:
Moreover, the registering the source code does not protect the intellectual property of bitcoin as an invention.
The Copyright Office can cancel a registration application if it is certain that presented information is a false claim and the person claiming to be the author of a work is in actual fact not who they claim they are.
Recently, a scandal around bitcoin SV (BSV) — the altcoin backed by Wright — placed Wright at the center of international attention when cryptocurrency exchanges began delisting the coin amid Wright’s campaign to deanonymize one of his critics, so called Hodlonaut.
That makes sense. The Copyright Office is not really concerned with who actually invented something. If it is unclear who is that person, then whoever is smart enough to come and declare authorship wins. At least until someone else disagrees and has ways of proving it. Unfortunately, though, copyright is still very important and with a guy like Craig having it, it can affect the market very significantly. Basically, Craig Wright is the one who has the right of commercializing Bitcoin and, possibly, blockchain as their inventor. It means that technically all of the projects that make money from it should pay him royalties. I don't think it holds for something created before the decision was ruled in his favor, but it probably will affect any future projects if Craig feels like acting on it. Quote
“In a case in which a work is registered under a pseudonym, the Copyright Office does not investigate whether there is a provable connection between the claimant and the pseudonymous author.”

Another one of failed attempts by Craig Wright to announce himself as the creator of bitcoin. I wonder why is he so desperate to claim Satoshi's identity.
Could he be more Faketoshi ? LOL. It's high time for him to stop trying being somebody else and trying being himself. "May" be that will set up his image right.
Anyway, although it create a FUD, now it has set a clarity in people's mind and that they should not believe such FUDs so soon.

Most people do not believe in faketoshi, faketoshi does not have any power to influence the community, every action he does only destroys what little reputation he have. faketoshi is a big shame and disappointment for the crypto world.
crazy people for power and attention are equal to faketoshi
He is the greatest shame in the crypto world.
This Craig guy is mentally unstable...

it seems that straightforward weight has a specific purpose when they dare to claim bitcoin as one of the main goals for their copyright. this is really funny when a large bitcoin becomes claimed by an irresponsible party and this is sure to have a specific goal with increasing crypto. this became the material of the community's question, especially the straight-weighted method, to use the name satoshi nakamoto, this was completely absurd.
May 23, 2019, 11:39:20 AM
If they are doing research and have read the many negative write-ups about Wright I'm 100% sure they will reject the application, they should instruct Wright to sign any of the address associated with the real Nakamoto, to prove that he is the real creator of Bitcoin and not an impostor.
WE all know he is not satoshi. but there is a record currently that shows his name sat beside the name satoshi on a government database. scammers use these flimsy records as a tool to scam
read the green. the C.O do not investigate.
it means some american guy has to pay the minimum $35 fee to re-file new names to cancel out craigs name. OR go to court to prove it.
but while nothing is done. craig can use that flimsy record as a foot in the door way to scam people

Copyright registrations for the Bitcoin white paper and the bitcoin (BTC) source code by the United States Copyright Office do not mean that Australian computer scientist Craig Wright is recognized as Satoshi Nakamoto by the government, the Financial Times reported on May 22.
The development follows news that Wright filed copyright registrations for the Bitcoin white paper authored under the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto. A news release from May 21 claims that U.S. officials received confirmation that Wright is indeed Satoshi Nakamoto, but the news has been met with skepticism from the crypto community.
A spokesman for Wright told the Financial Times that “the registrations issued by the U.S. Copyright Office recognize Wright as the author — under the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto — of both the white paper and code,” claiming the Office to be the first government agency that recognizes Wright as the creator of the leading digital currency.
However, the claim has no basis in reality as when the Copyright Office receives an application for registration, it does not investigate the truth of any statement made in that application, nor the identities of people registering for copyright. The Office told the Financial Times:

Hodlonaut targeted the Australian businessman with offensive tweets, calling him “a very sad and pathetic scammer. Clearly mentally ill,” and allegedly participated in creating the #CraigWrightIsAFraud hashtag.

Satoshi is a group of three: Dave Kleiman, Hal Finney and Craig Wright. The first two have already left our world, so the alias Satoshi now belongs only to Craig Wright on a completely legal basis
May 23, 2019, 09:59:26 AM
So the copyright office is the final door standing between Craig Wright and his true motives in the industry? Isn't really that obvious that for a long time now we don't know the real identity of Satoshi Nakamoto and then 10 uears after suddenly wants to obtain a copyright protection just because he is recognized to be that man? Why did a man who is hiding his identity for more than a decade now will be interested in claiming a copyright protection for his whitepaper?
May 23, 2019, 09:53:28 AM
If he really is ( there is no chance he is ) he could prove it with few simple steps .
the transactions was signed, but not sent, the private keys was then destroyed. Sending will be in January 2020 as soon as access to the Fund in which these transactions are stored is obtained
May 23, 2019, 09:44:52 AM
Why this Craig Wraight wants to be Satoshi? Is there is anything that he WANT to do with bitcoin or what is the real purpose of him maybe for money purposes? I dont think so he is already rich enough or maybe he wants to hold us on our neck. Maybe if he is really satoshi then he should prove it and not only claim it.
May 23, 2019, 09:28:22 AM
It’s just all a big scam to try to devalue bitcoin & inflate the value of his shitcoin SV (which I guess is failing massively).
The sooner he fucks off away from anything to do with bitcoin the better. They must have burnt a fuck load of bitcoin to keep SV alive. They shouldn’t be able to keep doing it for all that much longer.
CW will soon fade away from crypto.

May 22, 2019: Questions about Certain Bitcoin Registrations
As a general rule, when the Copyright Office receives an application for registration, the claimant certifies as to the truth of the statements made in the submitted materials. The Copyright Office does not investigate the truth of any statement made.
We all know that there's no truth about Craig's claiming the Whitepaper.
So there's a chance if someone will file a dispute here, going to court, proving the Craig is not the original author of the Whitepaper.
Everything came from the mouth of Craig, and we all know that this guy is not to be trusted and he is a fraud.

Quote
A registration represents a claim to an interest in a work protected by copyright law, not a determination of the truth of the claims therein. It is possible for multiple, adverse claims to be registered at the Copyright Office. The Copyright Office does not have an opposition procedure for copyright registrations, such as the procedures available at the Patent and Trademark Office for patents and trademark registrations. Disputes over the claims in a registration may be heard before federal courts, including disputes over authorship of a work. Someone who intentionally includes false information in an application may be subject to penalties.
So there's a chance if someone will file a dispute here, going to court, proving the Craig is not the original author of the Whitepaper.

In the case of the two registrations issued to Mr. Wright, during the examination process, the Office took note of the well-known pseudonym “Satoshi Nakamoto,” and asked the applicant to confirm that Craig Steven Wright was the author and claimant of the works being registered. Mr. Wright made that confirmation. This correspondence is part of the public registration record.

Sometimes it just makes me wonder why he is doing all of this . If you take a look at interviews he did , i would say there is something wrong with him . why he is trying to make people believe he is satoshi ? If he really is ( there is no chance he is ) he could prove it with few simple steps . Whats next Craig move ? Currently i see alot of news sites posting that probably Craig is Satoshi .
I think it's pretty obvious that all he wants is more attention and it's clear for us that the real Satoshi would never do that. He knows a lot of people will actually belive what he says and therefore he will be a more valuable in those people's eyes. Just a prick that's using trending topics to promote himself. 
May 23, 2019, 08:19:52 AM
Funny to see how this guy is trying hard to get attention. Craig Wright should meet proofofresearch.

I wonder where this Craig drama will end and what he will get from all these. Clearly he is getting attention but this is not the kind of attention someone will like to have.
This Craig guy is mentally unstable I think.

Like all the predictor this is also a prank but it really creates curiosity and remains in a market quite for long 
as it was from renown name, but as I said before Satoshi is on his Himalaya trip for peace to bring something compatible to Bitcoin

it doesnt matter whats legal. thats for a court room.
but here is the problem
"The Copyright Office can cancel a registration application if it is certain that presented information is a false claim and the person claiming to be the author of a work is in actual fact not who they claim they are."
by the C.O not cancelling the registration. and by the office currently having his name attached as the pseudonym. OUTSIDE of court craig can perform many scams and start cease & Desist tricks using the C.O current filing.
after all he performed the aussie government tax scam using simply a text file of PUBLIC keys as his scammer tool. thats how lame law/justice/scamming is
the only way a C&D recipient could stop this would be to defend in court and fight craig in court.
and here is the thing. it costs money to go to court. craig knows this.. many patent scammers, copyright scammers know this. their intention is NEVER to win court cases. but instead to get the defense to just hand the scammer some 'shut up and go away' money as its cheaper to settle than go to court
its like credit card chargeback scaming... only scam under $1k and the victim wont take you to court because it costs more than $1k to go to court. so scammer keeps the chargeback and the victim just accepts the lose without justice

So, the announcement that says U.S copyright office recognizes Craig Wright as satoshi is not really officially announced by, and it was just announced by Craig's spokesman? Unbelievable, Craig never stops to amuse me, he never stops to make an action that will make him as a clown in crypto community.
He won' stop, the community is too tired with they guy that no one really cares about what his saying. His even worst than John McAfee now, at least John has the balls to admit that he is shilling and being paid to shill, but this guy CSW is so assuming will all his dick move claiming to be Satoshi, but can't proved anything. And being recognized by the US copyright offices doesn't mean a thing to all bitcoin enthusiast because we all know that he is not Satoshi Nakamoto.
May 23, 2019, 07:51:23 AM
With all the negative implications of the US Copyright Office's decision, it's actually a good thing for them to clear out all the doubts casted by those who feared CSW taking over anything with bitcoin's name on it. If anything, the Copyright Office gained a couple dollars from CSW by filing that paper and making himself look like a clown for the crypto community. What antics and facepalm moments would this guy serve next for our plates, I wonder.
The guy might be crazy but he isnt stupid, this was part of his strategy, i doubt he randomly decided to fill the papers now. Bitcoin sv was pumped to the moon so thats that.
Even though in exchange for his own dignity and shaming him self on another publicity act .
