Not sure if he is doing the right thing or not. However, will his actions in anyway affect the development/growth of bitcoin. I hope the patent office will take a closer look at what he is claiming.
I know nothing about patent application but I guess we shouldn't be able to patent something after it has been used by so many users for free for many years.
Topic: Wright looking to patent Blockchain-related technologies (Read 1074 times)
Wow now that Craig Wright failed to pull his con story on all the Bitcoin community for being the real Satoshi Nakamoto he has joined the ranks of the patent trolls. I hope he doesn't try to patent the word 'Bitcoin' because we won't be able to use it any more in our daily conversations about Bitcoin and the crypto coin will be renamed to 'the-coin-that-shall-not-be-named' 
His aspirations for Bitcoin patents remind me of the fine brothers attempts to patent the usage of reactionary videos on YouTube, so hilarious to even think about it.

For some reason, I would have preferred he would have never come out as Satoshi.

it's make bitcoin not decentralization again? any effect for bitcoin?http://fortune.com/2016/06/20/bitcoin-craig-wright-patent/
i think this news make bitcoin price, ofcourse blockhalving scheme make bitcoin price fail too.

Wright is a fraud, he cannot answers more detailed question on bitcoins. Bitcoin is a very complex system that runs in our computer and wright is not right when he claims he is creator of such altcoins. The original creator should have known the complexities and total limit and scope of bitcoins. What made him a fake is that he cannot give a solution to the bitcoin crisis on which the real creator could give and that is increase the supply of bitcoins without doing mining.
Hey assholes...it's Craig Wright phd
His PhD is in theology. There are only two kinds of people who take a degree in theology, priests and conmen, and Craig Wright sure as Hell isn't a priest. 
Hey assholes...it's Craig Wright phd
Buwhahaha
Buwhahaha
He is obviously a sociopath. Wants attention and with that try to cash it in for something worthwhile. Look at his track record. Damn.
Why do people keep bringing this f**ktard's shit on the table? He is obviously a troll who wants to be famous by spreading false information. Just leave it and nobody will be knowing him. He wants you to talk about his bullshit. That is how he gains his fame.
Wow. That is interesting. Now it makes at least a little bit of sense. Filing all those patents in 2016 is very strange. I can't imagine Wright was involved 7 years ago and did not write some patents. But today he files dozens. Very strange. Now there is an explanation. Well, anyway the UK patents are completely stupid. They only protect the UK. US and China will ignore those ridiculous patents even if they are granted. Only UK businesses will be bothered by them. Very stupid patent strategy if you ask me.
So it didn't have anything to do with real patent coverage. But rather it was another trick by Craig Wright to rip off the guys who bailed him out from Oz tax authority. Very funny.

ofcourse its a stupid patent strategy.
craig wright owns no bitcoins but suckered people a few years ago to give him millions(fiat) where he used a "vapour" trust as collateral(trust holding nothing)
then he went on to create a list of several companies and try playing one off the other (shell game) to garner more fiat.
and now he wants to make patent applications to then list those patents applications as company "assets" along with a *cough* life story *cough* exclusive and hopes to sell that business for a billion in fiat.
he is pretty much just a fiat scammer using the worlds half-knowledge of bitcoin to tell a little tale, i feel sorry for anyone that has ever invested funds into anything linked to craig wright.
So, this attitude already shows that this guy cannot be Satoshi since S.Nakamato wouldn't do such a thing. His main purpose to make use of the technology laying beneath bitcoin free and easy to everyone, so that bitcoin can become people's money not financial behemoths , and trying to get almost all possible blockchain-related patents of course tears down the foundations of this idea. Even declaring his identity undermines bitcoin, and Satoshi never does that.
So, who the fuck is this guy, and what is he trying to do?

A guy called O'Hagan has written a book about him after spending some time with him. He says some business associates paid off Dr Wright 's debts to the Australian tax authorities after he tricked them into believing he's Satoshi.
In return they wanted the rights to his "inventions and patent application" and to sell them as the work of Satoshi Nakamoto. If that's true Dr Wright ripped them off worse than the Australian tax authorities.
O'Hagan doesn't prove who Satoshi is in his book, he only wants to make a fortune selling it.

But O'Hagan shows us something rather different - a man under intense pressure from business associates who stood to profit from him if he could be shown to be Nakamoto.
These people had signed a deal with Dr Wright in June last year, which saw them pay off his debts, including legal fees incurred in a battle with the Australian tax authorities.
Then, they had a plan for him.
"They would bring Wright to London and set up a research and development centre for him, with around 30 staff working under him," O'Hagan writes.
"They would complete the work on his inventions and patent applications - he appeared to have hundreds of them - and the whole lot would be sold as the work of Satoshi Nakamoto, who would be unmasked as part of the project."

He may have exaggerated his contribution, he may have constructed a very elaborate fantasy...

If you are expecting O'Hagan to reveal the truth behind Bitcoin's creation myth, you will be left disappointed.

Is that guy out if his mind ? How can he patent something which he doesn't own neither has substantial amount of proofs that he even is slightly involved in the making ?Dissolves the entire point of making it a Open Source Technology.But that's other thing,we all know this dramatic bitch comes up new bullshit every month or so to keep the bitcoin community aware that someone's still trying to centralize it.
So the guy who anonymously published bitcoin as an open source project now wants to patent it?
Ok.
Ok.
thats a misunderstanding. no, you cant patent something thats already been published. these patents are for new blockchain related inventions and will only be granted if they're novel. any attempt to patent something already in use won't be possible (and the patent lawyers know that, so they're unlikely to waste money trying).
How predictable that Wright would get headlines again now that BTC is relevant again to all those idiots that only care about it when ti goes high in price. Im tired of all this bullshit. Wright is nothing but a NSA agent, the more you talk about him the worse it will be. Its just what they want, giving him attention so random people think he really is Satoshi.
So, who the fuck is this guy, and what is he trying to do?
extort businesses for FIAT by playing on their naivity of not understanding what bitcoin is or how he should prove thingsYeah, that's what's going to happen. After all he can now selectively quote media reports by major news agencies to companies to set the stage for his fraudulently claimed authority over Bitcoin. Luckily those affected will be most likely financial institutions without competence that want to install their private blockchains.
ya.ya.yo!
This guy can open a Pandora's box, if he succeeds in patenting this technology. I know the banks will fight him tooth n nails on this, because they already invested millions into Blockchain based technologies or they will have to pay him royalties to use it. This is going to get very dirty in the future. ^smile^

If Satoshi was a ruthless brute he/she/it could've released some code, let all the saps iron out all the crap and then swoop in. The one consolation would be taking a shit all over R3's plans.
... since S.Nakamato wouldn't do such a thing. ... and Satoshi never does that.
You don't know Satoshi Nakamoto, so you have no idea what he/she/they might or might not do.
