WizSec Case Study on Craig Wright vs Dave Kleiman: Satoshi’s Bitcoin that Never Existed?More Controversy Over the Bitcoins in the Dave Kleiman Versus Craig Wright Case: They Don’t ExistThe case between the estate of
Dave Kleiman and Craig Wright has gripped the crypto community since the beginning of the year. We just learned new details about the bitcoins involved in the dispute: those bitcoins might not exist. In fact, those bitcoins might have never existed.
The issue was first spotted by the bitcoin security experts at WizSec back in February when details of the court case first appeared online. The documents revealed to the public highlight a number of mysterious wallet addresses where the missing bitcoins are alleged to be hiding.
Last week, we mentioned that one wallet was associated with Mt. Gox. In other words, Craig Wright was trying to claim that the wallets he and Kleiman mined ended up in a Mt. Gox bitcoin wallet – which seems unlikely.
New research, however, has revealed that none of the addresses in the court documents have a connection to Wright or Kleiman.
In fact, it seems likely that Wright looked at a “rich list” of bitcoin addresses and randomly selected several top addresses.
The ongoing lawsuit alleges that Craig Wright owes the estate of Dave Kleiman $10 billion. Craig Wright, the Australian man who has previously claimed to be Satoshi Nakamoto, partnered with American computer security specialist Dave Kleiman in the early days of the bitcoin network. The pair allegedly mined over one million bitcoins in 2009 and 2010. It’s also possible that both Wright and Kleiman developed bitcoin and both used the Satoshi Nakamoto identity. The lawsuit, in fact, specifically claims that both Wright and Kleiman developed bitcoin along with an unnamed third party.
The whole case revolves around 1,100,000 bitcoins. These bitcoins were worth a few hundred thousand dollars when Wright and Kleiman first mined them. Today, the sum is worth billions.
