Craig Wright Admits He's Not Bitcoin Creator Satoshi Nakamoto

Craig Wright, the self-proclaimed creator of Bitcoin, has officially admitted in a sworn statement that he is not Satoshi Nakamoto, the pseudonymous creator of the cryptocurrency. Wright had previously been brought to court by the UK Prosecution over perjury allegations. The Crypto Open Patent Alliance had also taken Wright to court to determine whether or not he was Satoshi Nakamoto. In March, Judge James Mellor ruled that Wright was not the creator of Bitcoin. Wright's latest admission is a significant development in the long-running debate over the identity of Satoshi Nakamoto. Many experts have long suspected that Wright was not the real Satoshi, and his admission now appears to confirm those suspicions.
