From the 145 early bitcoin addresses this Monday, the same message was sent and signed accusing Craig Wright of lying. Earlier, Wright claimed that these addresses belong to him as the creator of Bitcoin, but he still can not access them.
“Craig Stephen Wright is a liar and a scammer. It does not have the keys that were used to sign this message. Lightning Network is an important achievement. However, we must continue to work to improve throughput at the circuit level. Unfortunately, this solution cannot be implemented simply by changing the value in the code or by expelling small participants to larger ones. We are all Satoshi, ”the report said.
By signing the message, the user can confirm ownership of a certain address. Verified addresses from the list were created in 2009-2010 and contain 50 BTC each, which were credited to them as a reward for mining and have not moved since. One of these addresses “woke up” last week. According to analysts, part of the funds on it was transferred to the Coinbase and Binance cryptocurrency exchanges. Analysts at the BitMEX exchange note that the new addresses, like the previous one, most likely also do not belong to the creator of bitcoin Satoshi Nakamoto.
Soon after the information about activity on one of the early wallets appeared last week, bitcoin fell from $ 9,800 to $ 9,200. Against the background of today’s messages, bitcoin continued to fall and at the time of publication it was trading at about $ 8,750, having lost about 5% of the value over the past day.
The Wright case against the family of his former business partner Dave Kleiman will be held July 6th. The central element of the proceedings are bitcoins located at the addresses from which he is now accused of fraud.
