To be frank he is not really as wealthy or even rich as he is acting, this is among the reason they knew he is not Satoshi because he can't even accessed the Satoshi address with a million+ bitcoins. He is far from being consider among the wealthiest bitcoiners.
I firstly heard about this guy was in 2015 end or mid of 2016 something (didn't remember the actual date) but the price of btc was not much high during that time and probably i wouldn't say Craig is poor perhaps holds bunch of bitcoin in couple of multiple different wallets till this date. Also, afaik craig was among those people much intrested in forking bsv years ago and here is the link said btc won't reach 100k ever, and what most i dont like about him is "a fragile ego" dude pretends to be satoshi and criticize bitcoin that bsv is the orginal vision of satoshi will fulfill the original promises being p2p cash system at a same time.
Topic: Man who falsely claimed to be bitcoin creator sentenced - page 3. (Read 791 times)
Shame it’s a suspended sentence but at least he’s been denied the right to appeal. I thought he might have been handed a custodial sentence. It’s another nail in his BS ‘I am Satoshi’ coffin. I can’t believe some people were duped by him & Calvin Ayre.
This guy needs to stop getting attention in the public. He didn't win anything, if I were him he should have focused on his shitcoin, Bitcoin SV. I guess that he'd do more meaningful things if he just simply focused there and stopped suing the developers and minding his own business.
not all meaningful things can get him attention none of what he is doing is productive but he certainly made himself known and popular even if it is for the wrong reasons many opportunities have closed in on him but i am sure that he also created ones for himself because of this the internet is funny and sometimes instead of just ignoring someone who is clearly looking for attention they will continue to give it to him and please what he wants so at the end he still comes out of this with a little something 
I think this man doesn't just needs to be jailed and fined, rather just needs a therapist because he is just too delusional after all these years and being officially ruled out as Satoshi Nakamoto, for lying and forgery of his so called claims.
I think he has tormented developers enough and I guess if he is done with his jail terms and finally out, he might have learnt his lesson and not sue these dev again, after being warned never to again, when he lost the case of being Satoshi Nakamoto. Although he did continue suing these devs and now facing his punishment. This can be seen in the link shared by Op.
You’re so right mate, Craig Wright must consult a real medical practitioner so he will be given proper treatment if he’s into experiencing a mental disorder or an incapacity to think what is normal or not. Otherwise, no proper individual will consistently make a false claim, even if he’s fully aware that the people around are being skeptical on him.

However, putting him into jail might also be good for him. At least he will learn to stop from his improper actions or decisions. I just wish he’ll learn a big lesson after this, which I have also doubts about it.
I see no reason for claiming to be satoshi nakamoto while he is not and he tried the best to make sure that the world believed he is satoshi but on the other hand he failed because his claim werent back up with some facts that he is satoshi or even signed messages from his bitcoin address or make some transactions from his wallet to prove he is Satoshi, then fine, he could have won the battle, but instead fighting a blind battle with no facts to show he is nakamoto.
BTW, 12 months is actually very pitiable to him otherwise, country like ours he could be sentence for 6-10 years imprisonment for allegedly claiming what he is not, anyway that place would serve him as a resting place to enable him use his right senses.
I believe there are actually some reasons why Craig Wright continue to claim as the pseudonymous creator of bitcoin. Otherwise, he won’t give it a damn and just ignore it. Meanwhile, all I can see it is that Craig wants the power and legitimacy in the crypto world that’s why instead of paying tribute to the real Satoshi, he wants to steal the spotlight and tell the world that he is the one and only Satoshi Nakamoto. BTW, 12 months is actually very pitiable to him otherwise, country like ours he could be sentence for 6-10 years imprisonment for allegedly claiming what he is not, anyway that place would serve him as a resting place to enable him use his right senses.
It’s clear that all he want is financial incentives, that if people will come to believe him, he will gain an access to the large amount of bitcoin which is definitely billions of dollars worth today.
Damn for the effort he makes to tell everyone he's Satoshi Nakamoto he might be the real
The louder the person screams, the more you would think he does it only to make a profit or reach a different target in the end.
Maybe he will change his ways after the sentence, but I doubt it.

Agreed.
It would produce less fuzz and at least some kind of result in the end.

The nerve, right? But it will go nowhere and I guess that someday he'd just go tired with all of the BS that he does for himself, if he's got a lot of money doing these things, let him do it until he's got nothing as result of doing such. 
Edit:
It was a suspended sentence.

He's eventually going to be found and made to serve his time. He can't hide forever.

It is clear what anyone's intentions who would claim to be satoshi are and it is simply just money. They might not have Satoshi's coins themselves but they are hoping that they get enough attention from people that they get some kind of money. They probably thought that there would be shows asking for him and sponsors calling him but instead he is going to jail. Quote

He is definitely lucky and he could still come out and change his life after. I just hope he doesn't continue to fool people

It is really sad to see people trapped in their delusions and pride. This kind of action often ends up into self destruction since he can't accept the fact that he has been proven lying about the being the creator of Bitcoin. He is lucky that the execution of the decision of the court is suspended for 2 years and that he had more time to reflect his action and plan a strategy to get out of that decision.
I believe he needs to seek the help of medical experts to fix his delusions and put his thinking straight. Anywho, I am glad that the court is not blind to just follow what this person claimed to be and clearly see the deceit and lies laid in their eyes.

What I can say is that if Craig Wright claims he is Satoshi even though he is not, let him sign a message from the various Satoshi Bitcoin wallets holding the Satoshi Bitcoins.
Would't have to see his court case when the very system he supposedly invented gives him a very straightforward way of proving ownership of those genesis wallet private keys and he has refused to do so, but unfortunately, he doesn't own any key of those genesis wallet, likely probably will face jail time.But Fakesatoshi scamamoto is very good at faking a story (or a story teller) about why Satoshi choose a Japanese name, instead of being english person when is not supposed to be a Japanese person.Why satoshi kept Japanese name by craig.
To be frank he is not really as wealthy or even rich as he is acting, this is among the reason they knew he is not Satoshi because he can't even accessed the Satoshi address with a million+ bitcoins. He is far from being consider among the wealthiest bitcoiners.

That's actually true, if he was really satoshi Nakamoto, there would have been proof to back up his claims including making a transaction from his wallet containing his 1m bitcoin, as that will make it easy for people to believe him. Or he could have explained more technical aspect of bitcoin. but obviously he is claiming what he is not, and we all knows a proof of real satoshi nakamoto. The appearance of satoshi in bitcointalk forum here shows he was the real satoshi Nakamoto even without a physical appearance, because he answered some difficult question which new developers could not answer or could not have known without him. and until today his messages are still very lively and important, which no one else would have answered such question if not him. There are signs to proof a real satoshi but not ranting and forcing to be what he is not. BTW, 12 months is actually very pitiable to him otherwise, country like ours he could be sentence for 6-10 years imprisonment for allegedly claiming what he is not, anyway that place would serve him as a resting place to enable him use his right senses.
Man who falsely claimed to be bitcoin creator sentenced for continuing to sue developers
You all know who I am talking about. He is the most well known Faketoshi. I do not know what happened to Craig Wright for continuing suing bitcoin developers in the cases he has lost all the time. The court has said he is not Satoshi Nakamoto but he still continues to sue bitcoin developers. He has now been sentenced to 12 moths in prison.
It was a suspended sentence.
If the person is someone else, not Craig Wright, I can feel interested in following it up, but it's a case about Craig Wright, who many times was proven as Faketoshi.You all know who I am talking about.

The court has said he is not Satoshi Nakamoto but he still continues to sue bitcoin developers. He has now been sentenced to 12 moths in prison.

Any claim or lawsuit actions from Craig Wright with intention to prove that he is Satoshi Nakamoto, to sue Bitcoin developers, and more similar activities, no longer are interesting with me. You or we can not change Craig Wright, so let him be what he want to be, and move on by focusing on more important things in each of our personal life.
Updates from the COPA v Craig Wright trial
Another twist in the bizarre saga of this man. I can't believe he still hasn't accepted the court's decision and continues to sue those developers after everything. Will this finally put an end to his baseless claims and allow the developers to move on without this constant legal harassment or will it fail to deter him from further lawsuits?
Jail for him, it sounds as a Fair de al, ay least the developers will be able to work without having that pain in the ass...
This is a importante lesson for all, here we learn how our acts have a consequence, and the law will get you if you try yo play a smart role without evidencie.

He's not going to jail. It was a suspended sentence. He won't be spending a day in prison.
But, yeah, this decision of the court is indeed a breather to Bitcoin developers. Craig is being childish. He just wants to wreak havoc on the personal lives of people. He probably just wants to make their lives as uncomfortable as possible for not bending a knee to him, for not believing in his lies.
Something's seriously wrong with this man's brain. He certainly needs professional intervention. But the court doesn't have time for childish games.

On Thursday Wright was sentenced for five counts of contempt of court. Sentencing him to 12 months in jail, suspended for two years and to pay £145,000 in costs within a fortnight, the court also struck out his enormous claim.
id love to see him in prison, but he is not going.. he is given basically a warning shot, that if he repeats his offences or does anything criminal in UK jurisdiction, then he would defacto/by default have to serve 12 months in prison automatically plus any extra time added for the further crimes
however staying out of the UK means he can do crimes elsewhere and it not affect his UK suspended order
Jail for him, it sounds as a Fair de al, ay least the developers will be able to work without having that pain in the ass...
