STOP SNITCHIN'

This is pretty hilarious. Does he really believe this will hold up in court?

The code was released under MIT license. Hilariously, Wright seems very confused about how this works in practice:

Quote

Wright claims that other blockchains besides his chosen implementation of Bitcoin, Bitcoin SV, will have to pay for the privilege of using the codebase.

As Jerry Brito from CoinCenter points out, these claims "have almost zero legal weight." It's sad that people will have to spend time and money to fight these frivolous claims in court, though, if he tries to exercise any rights under copyright law.

Notably, very little (if any) of the original codebase even exists in the current client anymore.

Dr. Craig has now been issued a fully vetted certificate of copyright by US Government Copyright office.
This can not be contested unless you have standing so this is now firm.

Ronald Keala Kua Maria was issued with a fully vetted certificate of copyright 3 years ago, in 2016. No one has contested this, so it must be firm. CSW is clearly infringing on the copyright of the one true Satoshi, RKKM.

Or maybe, just maybe, this whole stupid publicity stunt he has pulled is completely meaningless.

Bitcoin was copyrighted from whitepaper and code version 0.1
A copyright can be maintained under a pseudonym.

Filing a copyright registration is not the same as proving ownership. It only sets a potential basis for a lawsuit, so CSW still has to prove he's Satoshi in the way the community has demanded.

This is from the government website:

"An application contains three essential elements: a completed application form, a nonrefundable filing fee, and a nonreturnable deposit—
that is, a copy or copies of the work being registered and 'deposited' with the Copyright Office."

https://www.copyright.gov/circs/circ01.pdf

Once again, ANYONE could have registered the bitcoin whitepaper according to the government website.

Is this a new conspiracy? Come on, from the start, everyone here knew that Craig Wright was not satoshi. so even if they do this, I don't think it will change anything here.

Such a non event. It was an attempt to have BSV pump hard with capital coming from Calvin and a bunch of other mentally challenged scammers. It went up around 80% where these scammers bought their own coins on the way up.

The whitepaper now have brown skid mark over it. Craig Wright is asshole.

I think Craig and Roger have done a lot together to have people (unfortunately) somewhat meme the Bitcoin white paper with how they constantly refer to it and see it as the absolute definition of Bitcoin.

It's sad to see that there is so much drama going on here, which is completely different when it comes to altcoins. Ethereum for example doesn't have to deal with this nonsense despite the large number of competing platforms.

Even if they recognize as Satoshi, he is not, why he just don't sign a message from first bitcoin address where is mined 50 bitcoin to proove he is Satoshi? If he can't do this then he is not Satoshi.

This is not recognising him as Satoshi, it's the step before (=anyone can reach this step), isn't that right?

Reportedly one of the addresses CSW claimed to own in a Florida court case (versus the Kleiman estate) has signed an authenticated message calling him a fraud. It seems he is bound to be discredited as these legal cases advance. He must be held accountable for his fraudulent claims. If he's Satoshi, he should sign a message or move the original mined bitcoins.

What about this?

Quote

On 10 february Craig Wright tried to convince people that he is Satoshi Nakamoto by releasing an abstract of a research paper called "Black Net" that he supposedly wrote for the Australian government in 2001. The abstract is almost identical to the official Bitcoin whitepaper of October 2008. However, Satoshi had a draft in August 2008 of the Bitcoin whitepaper and when we compare the draft with the official Bitcoin whitepaper, we can see that the corrections made between August and October 2008 are also found in the Craig's paper from "2001". This proves again that he is a liar.

Yes if somebody saying the same lie again and again people as well as himself starts believe that’s truth like most of people he politicians are doing I think he is fit for politics hope soon he joins politics . He can lie with the proof

I am still strongly believes that satoshi nakamoto Javan origin . May be Craig wright might be in his team or they could work together while building bitcoin blockchain . But original satoshi nakamoto should from Japan.

implicatins, like any other copyright if he enforces it then, for example this forum must change name. ~~Bitcoin~~ BTC Forum.

Yes - Copyright (c) 2009 Satoshi Nakamoto

On the plus side, if the US government did officially recognise Wright as satoshi,...

nobody has recognized him as dick, it is just that OP for some reason decide to choose this misleading title for his topic! what CW has done is just submission of a copyright which is not even accepted. and submission is not such a complicated or exclusive thing to do so anybody can do it.

If he gets recognized as Satoshi it means that you no longer have to prove anything. It's a chance for all of you to seek out unclaimed works and be the first to say that it was you and you'll get copyrights. This is so stupid that I'm lost for words.

How much did CW pay the author of this article because he's clearly shilling. SV is so low that even BTC going barely moves its price forward.
