Where is Craig's wife from? She's Asian - maybe Thailand or something.

singapore is her claimed nationality
before sentencing hearing, when he tried to use a medical excuse not to attend(before blaming financial inability) he said he intended to spend christmas in indonesia

as for extradition treaty.. singapore only allows extradition for crimes of more than 12 months.. so although there is a treaty, the possibility that a extradition would be granted if he done scummy things, would be low as his sentence is basically the cut off line. he would need to be found guilty of a new crime that adds more time to then trigger an acceptable extradition
(the court should have agreed with COPA's advised desire of a 18month prison sentence)

..

the funniest thing about this latest contempt of court sentencing is that COPA offered to pay his plane flight to come back to the UK to be sentanced, because CSW claimed he does not have the financial means to afford his own travel arrangements back to the UK..
very funny for a guy whom claims he is a successful business man managing millions of dollars and multiple businesses

the scumback actually had the audacity to say coming to the UK for sentencing hearing would lose him business to the tune of 6 months of business operations of £40k/month meaning he requested £240k to return to the UK

Maybe Craig Wright made one crucial mistake because he didn't go into politics first before announcing that he created something... because politicians are allowed to lie all the time and they never go to prison for that Wink

He can't even win his case regarding on his claims how much more for wining a position in politics. Also even if he became a public official its still hard to prove that he is the real Satoshi Nakamoto since people will still ask for evidence and same as what happen he cannot produce a solid evidence so his claims still nothing even if he became a politician.

Craig Wright deserves that punishment and that serves as a lesson that he cannot easily claim that he is the real Satoshi just like that.

Now let see if this sentence will totally shut his mouth and stop his nonsense claims.

Dr Bitcoin podcast update on the contempt charges: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-bzaRloj6XE

Justice Mellor asked what country Craig was in and Craig replied "Asia". Dr Mellor told him Asia isn't a country  Grin.

They mentioned on the podcast that extradition is usually only reserved for very serious crimes so it's likely that will never happen unless he breaches his conditions. They could probably put an arrest warrant out for him still though and he'd get nabbed at an airport. I wonder if Justice Mellor may have given him a jail sentence had he actually been in court and not just appearing via video link.

He was sentenced to a 1 year suspended sentence so unfortunately - no jail time this time.
Any bets that he keeps up and eventually will have to serve time? https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2024/dec/19/craig-wright-man-who-falsely-claimed-to-be-bitcoin-creator-sentenced-for-continuing-to-sue-developers

Well hopefully he does. I wonder if not paying the new 250k fine will find him foul of it. One thing is I don't think he will ever set foot in the UK again, much like Australia. I wonder what country he is actually in in Asia. I think there's only a few countries in the world that don't have extradition treaties with the UK so he shouldn't be safe there. My main hope is that the Australian Tax Office will actually get their finger out and file a warrant for his arrest.

Looking at https://www.gov.uk/guidance/extradition-processes-and-review, UK have such treaties with 146 territories (where not all of them classified as country). There are fair amount of country is Asia which isn't listed on that webpage such as Cambodia and Japan.

Where is Craig's wife from? She's Asian - maybe Thailand or something. Wherever she's from that's probably the more likely.

Wright refused to show up in person.. so maybe the court was not imposing the actual prison because they were having trouble getting physical custody over Wright, and if Wright is still cooperating by attending by video conference, then the court might be reluctant to actually impose the prison sentence... He also ONLY has two weeks to pay his £145k fine.

I doubt that. They could just give actual prison time and then issue warrant/wanted notice either on country level or international level if faketoshi doesn't want to enter UK legally and got arrested voluntary.

he was basically put on 2 years probation(court order) to not commit any crimes in the UK jurisdiction, or else face then having to spend 12 months in prison for this breach, plus whatever time added on for the further crime itself aswell

however if he spends 2 years in asia at his wifes ancestral location and does crimes(false claims) there, or other countries.. he wont be breaching the UK court order thus he can still be a scum bag during the next 2 years and not face UK prison time even if he continues to slapp lawsuit people from asia

the suspended 1 year jail sentence is such a letdown. he deserves more time for all the shit he has done.

I wonder what country he is actually in in Asia.

Since he's a proven liar... I would not be so sure he's actually in Asia.

the fact that there is no mention of the actual country he is in makes me believe the same.

I doubt that. I expect this kind of people think of themselves they are smarter than the normal plebs and - sooner or later - they force their luck.

Craig Wright is a living example of the dunning kruger effect, i hope his luck runs out soon.

From what Gemini told me (but AI answers are not so reliable overall), not paying the fine doesn't necessarily mean the suspension ends.
However, imho the COPA win was the beginning of the end for CSW and his chances to be taken seriously by any court should be greatly diminished.

One thing is I don't think he will ever set foot in the UK again, much like Australia.

A short update on the proceedings. Copa have filed a claim for contempt of court now so hopefully we see him get some jail time. Craig is of course trying to get out of appearing in person as he probably knows he could get locked up. Hopefully the judge forces him to appear and puts a warrant out if he doesn't.
And it worked as earlier today he was sentenced to one year in prison.  Cheesy

The man who falsely claimed to have created Bitcoin, Craig Wright, has officially received a one-year prison sentence. Indeed, he was sentenced in contempt of court after he filed a $1.2 trillion lawsuit against Twitter founder Jack Dorsey’s new company, Block.

Wright was sentenced Thursday after he sued Jack Dorsey’s new company, Block, for $1.2 trillion. In May, the London High Court found that Wright’s claims of being Bitcoin’s creator were unfounded. Moreover, they uncovered falsified documents to support his claim.

Thereafter, the Crypto Open Patent Alliance (COPA) argued against Wright’s ability to sue Bitcoin developers, including Dorsey’s company. They stated that his filed suit “breached an injunction preventing Wright from bringing litigation on the basis of his claim to be satoshi

A suspended sentence means he avoids jail just as long as he doesn't commit any further crimes during that time period. Should be hard for him as his entire life is a fraudulent fantasy.

Yeah it’s possible that the reason why the court’s decision not to immediately impose the prison sentence on Wright could be because so far they’ve not been able to take physical custody of Wright since he’s been only cooperating via video conference. It could also be that the court is waiting tans maybe giving Wright the chance to comply with the imposed fine, since it might likely reduce the likelihood of the prison sentence if eventually he complied with paying the £145k. So probably we’ll be able to know the court’s final verdict in 2 weeks,  which is the duration Wright was given to comply with the fine.

Have they actually found Craig Wright's whereabouts yet?

Last time I heard, the authorities were unable to find CSW anywhere in the UK. In fact, nobody really knew for sure where he went. So this must mean some police body somewhere has tracked him down and at least have a location on him.

No sympathy for this guy at all. He fucked around, so now it's time for him to find out.

No, he's almost certainly not in the UK and probably won't be going back unless he's forced to (much like him ever going back to Australia). On the Dr Bitcoin podcast they mentioned him "being in a cupboard in Thailand" but I don't know whether they were just joking or not  Cheesy. I'm sure Craig doesn't want people to know where he really is unless he's been boasting about living it up somewhere (which also wouldn't surprise me). I don't think he's dumb enough to have stayed in the UK though where he knows he's in the reach of the UK authorities. If he's saying in a country with an extradition treaty with the UK they'll just nab him at the airport when he tries to fly anywhere and send him back to the UK. There's only a few countries in the world like Russia or Saudi that don't so if he was smart he'd be hiding in one of those.

~snip~


A man can't just disappear like that, especially in a country that has (if I'm not mistaken) the most surveillance cameras of any other country in the world. Unless Faketoshi has hidden in some basement with enough food supplies to last a long time, I think the authorities can find him very easily if they really want to.

It is obvious that he is trying in every possible way to ignore his problem, but this time on the other side are very persistent people and a judge who understands who he really is. Who knows, maybe by Christmas, instead of a warm fireplace and expensive whiskey, this fraudster will be watching the snow fall through the prison window.

He's just an absolute scammer, nutcase huh? Really a lowly POS who gets all he deserves. I would say though, he is smart, and has guts - but he could have used these traits for far better purposes than to scam, deceive, conive, and harm others.

Latest updates on the court case from the Dr Bitcoin podcast: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kOGGJ0HmvP8

The good news is is that the judge is recommending Craig for prosecution of perjury. The courts can decide it's not in the public interest to do so though which would be a shame. Nobody seems to know where Craig currently is and there's speculation he's fled the country. His house is currently available to rent: https://search.savills.com/gg/en/property-detail/gbcorecbs170012l

There's also now a legal notice on his website:

Wright has put up millions to cover his opponents costs in order to avoid orders to disclose the funding sources for his litigation.  The odd thing is that it's well known that Ayre is a funding source, -- so what are they so desperate to keep secret?  I wonder if there were parties funding Wright's attack on Bitcoin that would be surprising to learn about?
Liars never admit they lie and cheat so all they have left now is to fight until the end.
If there was someone else behind Ayre and Faketoshi who has funding them than they must be either very stupid or insane for burning all this money in trails.
It's funny how their propaganda website Coingeek is not talking much about trail this days Wink

again stevens and mcgregor are the main sponsors
and this week in a separate case (BSV adorers instigated) they are trying to sue some exchanges for dropping BSV in 2019*, where they wish to fight for "anti-competition actions" where they suggest that the actions of dropping BSV from market listing has lost CSW's sponsors BILLIONS(£9b) in revenue

so by not having the businesses locked up in the COPA case as potential compensation.. stevens and mcgregor can try (if(pfft) they win the anti competition case) to be part of CSW 'class action" and could get billions for the businesses by not having them locked up.. so its obvious they paid the £6m in the copa case to avoid the businesses being locked up

i consider this CSW vs exchanges as CSW's last mad dash for trying to keep his sponsors on his side with his last ditch effort of promising them all ROI for obedient loyalty to his lies
