Bitcoin Forum

The man is delusional. The things he put on his website are laughable: https://craigwright.net/






Do you think it might be worth starting a fundraising round with a view to take him to Court to prove he is Satoshi or he should withdraw that statement Creator of Bitcoin – Satoshi Nakamoto as stated on his website?

Or do you think we should all just let him be so he can live in his own fantasy world and be happy/deluded at the same time?

Taking him to t he court and make.him face his crimes would be correct.

He is doing identity theft.
I believe FBI and other policies might already watching him and will take some action in the future. They are just watching how far can he goes.

It is not possible that he will.stay immune to all those crimes.

For me its gonna be good if we can prove his claim is totally void and this will save Bitcoin's reputation for those who really doesnt know the truth. I assume he has supporters believing him as Satoshi creator of bitcoin. To save them is really a helpful in cryptocurrency history.

Yeah I am wonderint why he still free as a bird. I know crimes can be brought to justice when there is an evidence right? But not having the necessary things needed on his claim already proof as evidencr that he is a fraud and likely commit identity theft. How long should the government be silent and dont do any legitimate action? Is it because he is famous? Tsk hope matters like this settle soon as CraigWright head already been wrapped with fantasm facts that many already been tired of hearing here.

Nothing is "Wright" with him (see what I did there? LOL)

I think we are entitled to put up anything that we want as long as it is factual. In his case, it cannot be verified where he did create Bitcoin or he is just claiming the reputation that Bitcoin is surrounded by and because the makers of Bitcoin will not identify themselves, he is somewhat clear from the court because there's no one to go against him with that.

He could just live in that fantasy and maybe it helps him in a way to get himself together. We really don't know his story into why he is like that though.

He will face the consequences of his actions if he crosses the line next time. I'm sure that some warrant of arrest is being ready to arrest him later. Does he think he can get away with this fraud, I mean maybe most of us here think that this man is out of his mind but at the same time, there are also some few noobs who think his the real deal. Before he can take anything from those poor people, I think an immediate response from the FBI this time, is helpful.

Seriously though, just stop giving him all the attention, because that's definitely what he's aiming for– for people to keep on talking about him for him to stay relevant. And seriously, this topic is getting really really old.

Paying attention to the identity thief will make it more widely known and discussed.
This is the goal he wants to achieve.

Threads that discuss CSW must be left and not made again.
CSW only made games that made him richer by claiming and claiming that he was the real inventor of bitcoin.
Speculation is increasingly being done to raise his prestige.

The statement that he made was just bullshit without being able to prove the ownership of the Satosi Nakamoto bitcoin private key.

would it work?
i am not really familiar with legal procedures but i don't think you can sue him or anything like that. we say he is doing "identity theft" and we know it but i don't see any way to prove it in a court of law since Satoshi Nakamoto is an anonymous identity to begin with.
but i am sure that if you could find lawyers and they could assure you that such legal procedures could lead to successfully jail him or at the very least prevent him from continuing his scam then people would donate a lot of money to the cause.

For me it wouldn't matter how hard he tries to convince the world that he is the real Satoshi Nakamoto because he doesn't have any solid proof.
It is just thatthe media or the internet is taking it seriously to be honest we already know that he is fake and he is living on his own dream and sooner or later those people who believes in him would also realize that he isn't the real Satoshi.
We just have to ignore him and don't entertain him by giving some publicity about everything that he does or say.

Haha, Satoshi Nakamoto is a banker. Sounds very credible for sure... and pastor :o. Pastor only for the Devil, preaching his scammy Altcoin.
How about i proclaim myself as a God and demand you stop breathing my air because I invented it, or I'll sue you.

actually people who recognize themselves as satoshi nakamoto are not only craig wright, but this person is very famous after recognizing himself as the main part of the team that created bitcoin, but even though he always claims to be the original satoshi but security researchers always tell the public that craig Wright is a scamer who cheats many people.
so I thought let that fool continue to make drama because I'm sure most people no longer hear that nonsense.

I think it would be great to finally send him to court to end all of this nonsense topic about this person.
We need to end his act as Satoshi Nakamoto so that the new one's in crypto wouldn't believe his words.

He can include this too in his bio.
Scientist, Chemist, Programmer, Encoder, Editor, Sleeper, A Delusional Stupid.

Its just funny that Satoshi right now is a pastor and a banker :D.
He created a coin that against the banks and yet he is a banker :D. It is somewhat contradicting.

It will be useless in my opinion. Let the court do it. Even though he is convincing many people for a long time already, he can't convince those who are in crypto for a long time already since we know already who is this stupid idiot. He is dreaming everyday :D.

He is just an attention seeker and I don't want to believe with this delusional person. His claims doesn't have a solid proof.

we should not even think about him anymore since the whole crypto community recognize Craig Fucking Wright as Faketoshi.
He has been proven wrong so many times that people don't even listen to him anymore.
Let the guy enjoy in his own world. Besides that, he is giving us more things to laugh on him  ;D

He is a con artist. There is no reason for someone like Satoshi Nakamato to show himself, just claim the fame. That guy or group, whatever it is, maybe be looking for many things, but they are definitely not looking for the fame like Craig. He dont need to sue anybody. all he needs to do is, produce the private keys and claim those coins.

Just relate to such statements more simply, I'm generally extremely surprised how this person is not in specialized care in a psychiatric hospital. In the face all the symptoms that he needs specialized help otherwise, tomorrow he will become Santa, Pope or Donald Trump.

I think as long as he can still influence the price for bitcoin SV then you should be able to use it to be able to make profits even though we know that the statements made by craig don't make sense and everything looks ridiculous so try you are not affected by craig and only use it for the sake of profit that can you get.

I think we should let him be in his "fantasy" land, people like Craig is a pathological liar so no matter what people do, he will won't back down or simply admit his lying.

For sure, majority really knows what personality Craig has and won't simply believed those exorbitant claims, like he is Satoshi. Maybe those beginners might, but they will soon realised their mistakes and move away from him.

I don't understand why people pay attention to him at first place. Sharing his thoughts and views is an extra pronotion for him and that is bad, thus we are only making him a favour. Just ignore him and I beleive there are authorities who will take care of his case and treat him.properly.

Faketoshi is the real Asshole on the crypto-currency industry. He have been trying to highlight himself by claim himself as satoshi nakamoto. And the fucker created a shitcoin called BSV, the most interesting JOKE is he claim it real bitcoin. I never believe any of his claim nor I follow him. For get popularity he made fork of BCH instead of create new coin. Better just ignore this liar, he deserve punishment actually. But who care since it's not very easy.

If CEO of Binance against them and the entire Bitcoin community and enthusiasts critized him how much more us here. Let's forget him or much batter never talks about him. Before he was claiming an owner and founder of Bitcoin and then he put shit on Bitcoin name including BCH because he was promoted his own BSV that also a shit coin. However, even the CEO of Binance stated on a tweet that “Craig Wright is not Satoshi. Anymore of this sh!t, we delist!”.

https://i.imgur.com/tkoFITX.jpg
source: (https://twitter.com/cz_binance/status/1116563034476957699)

We should also delist him in our mind and he deserved to be ignored. This identity theft must on jail. Just like "dont feed the trolls on him".

I'd agree if you'd take out the Binance CEO part. Sure he's right about CSW not being Satoshi and BSV being a scam, but let's not forget that regardless how good his platform is currently running, he's affiliated with Tron's Justin Sun.

Aren't we done on talking about this?
I mean for real guys aren't you tired of seeing this faketoshi's name?
If they want to put it into end then just send him to the court and give a solid proof or just let him admit that he is fake,
The whole community knows that he is fake so why does we even give a crap about what he does?

How many years has he been insisting on this fairy tale that he Is satoshi nakamoto? Answer: he has been in this for many years. If he has been in this fairy tale for many years and until today he has never been able to prove anything he says and was still able to separate the community with his poison, it is clear that he is a very mentally disturbed person and in my opinion the only way to end his fantasy world Is if everyone ignores him

Yeah, I'm not sure he could be compelled by a court of law to prove that he has a pseudonym.  I would think if the government was interested in that, it would be the IRS and they probably would be looking into it.  I don't think it's worth any sort of fundraising effort, plus I think it goes against the privacy that bitcoin stands for.  If CSW wants to live in a fantasy world, let him.  That's his right and it doesn't matter if part of that fantasy is that he created bitcoin.

I don't know much about the man, to be honest.  He's not really a lawyer, is he? 

He is a clown and nothing more. Keep it simple

This is the only reasonable explanation for all this theater of the absurd. It is possible that bitcoin-SV really has some kind of gray cardinals who have pretty serious money from such statements. It’s not clear only that I can’t imagine people who believe him.

Craig Wright is just trying to make some easy money while acting like a clown.He is just like John McAfee,but the only difference is that Craig Wright wants to patent and own Bitcoin/blockchain concept so all the Miners and devs could pay him royalties.He can't prove his claims about being the real Satoshi,but he will continue to bitch and moan about it.We are way to focused over Faketoshi Wright.It's way better to just ignore clowns like him.

Careful with this line of thinking. The onus is not on us or anybody else to prove his claim is void. The burden of proof is on him to substantiate his claims, and to date he has presented exactly zero solid evidence that he is Satoshi. He can't even sign a message, which is the lowest amount of evidence needed to even begin to discuss his claims.

If I claim right now that I am Satoshi, then I will have made just as compelling an argument with just as much evidence as CSW has. We don't have to prove his claim is void because it is void until he proves otherwise.

It does matter, though, when he commits identity theft and co-opts Satoshi's name and reputation to run a scam. It's obviously bad for the newbies who don't know any better and get ripped off, but it's also bad for bitcoin. It sullies our reputation, it presents a bad image to the wider public, it turns off honest users, traders, merchants, and it hinders growth and adoption. If he wants to live in a fantasy world, then be my guest, but when his delusions spill over and start affecting others, he needs to be shut down at every opportunity.

This topic won't stop if we continue posting topics related to Craig Wright. Aren't we all tired from all of his drama and issues about Bitcoin? He once claimed to be Satoshi and then start another claim and he'll just keep on doing that. He's just becoming a nuisance who wants attention even if his image is becoming a liar. We've been talking about him for a lot of times and most of us here are in the same position yet we still keep on giving his name a space here in the forum.

And for the multiple times, Craig Wright isn't Satoshi and who would even believe in him now? I don't get it why it's still an issue to us when we all know for a fact that he is not. He is just a self-proclaimed Satoshi who cannot even prove his claim. Caring much about him won't do is any good and it'll just waste our time.

That sounds just about right  ;D


You might be on to something very important there about donations being made towards a fund for lawyers but nothing he spouts will really be enough to get him jailed because he even though he falsely claims to be Satoshi it is hardly the biggest fraud in the world.


Your pastor for the devil comment made me laugh out but what about the other comment he left under the banker statement, that is just as weird as anything else he has written: My opinions are my own  ;D


That would be an ideal scenario but is there both a consensus and a will between community members to take any sort of action which might put an end to Wright and his nonsense?


I see no problem with him living his fantasy but it is just to protect newbies from the web of lies and deceit that a serial liar such as Wright might spin them that concerns me.


He and his one time friend Ver were involved in setting up BCH with Wu but then went their own ways leaving Ver/Wu with BCH and creating SV with involvement from Calvin Ayre. So does that set a precedent for whenever Wright does not like something he will keep jumping ship and keep forking and keep creating another real Bitcoin just he stated with BCH then SV?


You are probably right about him being a mentally disturbed person but would ignoring him actually have any impact on him ending his fantasy? I doubt it because he is too far gone and living in his own little bubble where he knows he is lying but is trying to ride the wave of deception for as long as possible. Maybe the real Satoshi (whoever that is) has been giggling away at that since the first allegation was made years ago.


Well this taken from his website, he claims to be:

Creator of Bitcoin – Satoshi Nakamoto.
Eternal student & researcher. nChain Chief Scientist. Lawyer, banker, economist, pastor, coder, investor, mathematician, stats & world curious.

He also adds an interesting comment immediately after it though: My opinions are my own

He claims to be many things but maybe an observation would conclude he is the antithesis of whatever he claims

I really never trusted anyone who claimed to be Satoshi. Especially with the organized structure of Bitcoin, so for me, it was impossible for Satoshi to reveal his identity as easily as that. That's all to me is bullshit and will not affect me at all. From the start, Satoshi had kept his identity a secret, and let it be a secret. Let's take advantage of this innovation to the maximum and develop our potential each other without bothering and debating who Satoshi really is :)

Is he too confident? I sometimes wonder what is the motivation for creating a profile like that?

I think he is dreaming like that he was creater of bitcoins but in reality he did not have any proof about that and we know the fact he can't be a founder of bitcoin. I hope we will get a solution soon regarding this issue. Because faketoshi is playing with legal rights so he will punishment soon if he continues fake statements like this.

just let it be mate because the more this "Clown" claims to be Satoshi is the More we gain popularity right?imagine we are gaining free advertising?Bitcoin will be known more with the help of Faketoshi CSW so i guess this is much better for international community.
what important is we already knew that he is a faker and cannot prove about His claim,and that is matter for all of us here in Crypto space.

I freaking hate Craig Wright and I do not think he is Satoshi, but I will say this BSV is better then BTC... lol. The only thing making Bitcoin better then BSV is its age and price! I will not let my pride stop me from speaking the truth lol. It is also WAY cheaper to transact on BSV. If BSV prices moon it will not be because Craig is Satoshi. But they do have some great developers on the team I just wish they could add some of the better functions to BTC... I try all types of coins. As far as Use cases my favorites are BTC, BSV, and TRX. My broke ass cannot afford to buy actual BTC so I need to find a cheap coin I can hold longterm and make money!!! lol

I won't knock it until I try it!

You know those people who were once famous and now they are trying endlessly to stay in the spotlight .
They try to say things which everyone knows is false but doesn't say anything because at the end of the day why bother a crazy man ?
He have claimed so many times and even tried to get bitcoins in his name , he might be the one who killed the Satoshi and now wants to take his place.
He even tried taking bitcoins from a dead man !
Anyone can see he is not of good values nor is he sane .

There's always a presumption of innocence as far as the justice system goes. He doesn't have to prove that he's innocent (by signing keys, etc.), someone else has to prove him guilty with actual conclusive evidence -- something that can't be done until the real Satoshi steps up and proves his identity, thereby invalidating CSW's claim.

Anyone can claim to be Satoshi and the justice system can't do jack shit because the burden of proof is with the prosecution, not the defendant.

Going as far as bringing this crazy man to court to change his crazy ideas and opinions is stooping down at his level. Nobody sane enough actually believes in him or his claims so I guess it is better to just let him be and leave him alone in his imaginary universe. He is a nuisance. And exerting significant effort to prove the nuisance wrong means treating him beyond that. Sometimes, a man who argues with a fool is fooler.

1. You are all very afraid of him and you know it.
2. The cypto elite establishment controlling most of the exchanges, crypto news sites and mining have all brainwashed you and they are the ones most afraid because they know he is Satoshi but have agreed together to oppose him to maintain the status quo.
3. This has all come at the cost of Bitcoin scaling and getting mass adoption. BTC Core devs have changed Bitcoin in fundamental way that would only in the end benefit themselves.
4. It's amazing that with all the evidence already out there most people dont see what is true and most likely only read headlines from crypto elite establishment controlled websites.
5. Craig Wright was sued to court by Dave Kleiman's brother, because he knows for a fact that Craig Wright is Satoshi and is trying to claim half of he's Bitcoin fortune. Craig Wright did not want to be put on this spotlight he was forced into it.
6. Have you ever wondered why none of the 1M+ Satoshi Bitcoins have moved in 10+ years? Craig Wright put the Bitcoins into a control of a Trust, because he knew that he would be forced to give it up if he would have direct control over the funds. Now no court/goverment/mafia can force him to. This makes perfect sense why nobody is moving the Satoshi Bitcoins in 10+ years, because if they would be under control of one individual he would have moved some of it by now.
7. Gavin Andresen who was chosen by Satoshi in the early days to lead Bitcoin development admits the truth https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pNZyRMG2CjA (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pNZyRMG2CjA). It's only these rotten devs who came after Gavin Andresen refuse the truth because of their self intrests!!!
8. You all think Craig Wright is doing all this for the money? He is already very rich without any Bitcoins!!! He only wants to implement the original vision of Bitcoin as was he's vision and not this clunky shitcoin BTC has become that has only the capacity to benefit the few (namely the crypto establishment mafia).

Your line of think makes absolute no sense at all.

Nobody is accusing him of saying he is satoshi. He is deliberately saying that, and that's a crime by itself. Maybe he can try to defend himself with your line of thinking,  but he must prove: he is the one claiming and trying to make money of this claim.

 you cannot pretend to be someone else,  it is a crime. If I do an interview on  tv saying that I am some other guy , that's a crime everywhere in the civilized world. He is doing that to manipulate markets and make money, which is another crime.

There's so many CW posts lately that I'm starting to believe he's the one to actually create them. Bad PR is still PR

LOL. Craig was stealing money left and right, borrowing then not giving back. It's already proven that he owes it to the Kleiman's family. He's only trying to prove that he was the founder to make it look like he was sharing it with Kleiman not that they were both testing a system made by someone else (Satoshi). If he would manage to prove that he made Bitcoin he wouldn't have to pay but he can't do it because he's not Satoshi and no fairytales of a mysterious courier with his private keys will not help him win the case.

I cannot argue with that


The onus is definitely on him to prove his claims but he cannot provide even one iota of evidence. That has been the regular pattern on his part all along.

As long as he keep destroying the reputation that Bitcoin has and keeps claiming to be Satoshi he continues down the road of deception. Bitcoin does not need him but he living off the Satoshi and Bitcoin name.

Does anybody know the real reasons why he split from BCH, Wu and Ver to start his own SV?

What a crazy claim for him since over the past years he can't provide a valid proof that he is the real Satoshi but we all know that all word came from his mouth is just a full shit so it's best not to listen him unless he can unlock those wallet who hold the majority of the funds or used when bitcoin is created or maybe he can message here and use the Satoshi account.

Jeez. What an obnoxious person. He is the very definition of toxic. So much lies and still can't do anything about the proof yet the court hasn't judge him yet. It's a good news though that he is getting accused of tricking the court and delaying so much. Now he is refusing to submit the documents that the court want because if he do, it's game over for him. I mean, it's not like it will last long now that he doesn't have any more excuse to make except that company bullshit rule.


Wrong. This posts are being made to oppose Craig Wright because finally he is at his weakest right now. He don't have anything because his excuse this past few years is this courier that will decide everything. Now that it's over, he doesn't have anything now. He can only delay because of this company rule that he is using, though it won't last long.

just like some post above you,a paid account of CSW team to spread His lies here in forum.how can actually someone will believe a person that cannot even prove all the things he claims?if you are the owner of something is it really hard to provide evidence ?
people will seek for more treasure even how rich they are,and specially if that people is Greedy so nothing we can expect but to claim to be Satoshi.

and No one here is afraid of Him,people here only wants proof and the truth.

So what crime is he committing, and how do you prove it? Again, the burden of proof is always on the accuser. You don't ask the accused to provide proof that he is innocent to make a suit stick, you produce evidence and the court decides if it has merit. Innocent until proven guilty, not the other way around.

I'm not commenting on the state of our justice system, but the fact of the matter is, no one has been able to do anything about his lies for a reason. But hey, if it's so obvious to you and you are somehow able to make a compelling case, I'm sure the community would be up for a crowdfund.


Until you prove that he's actually claiming to be someone else, it's your word against his. And again, the justice system presumes innocence (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Presumption_of_innocence) (CSW has human rights too, apparently!), so good luck.


This might actually stick, but you might need to prove that he's not who he says first.

Just to be clear, I do think he's lying and I would support action against him. I just want to remind people that these go through courts, which require evidence beyond a reasonable doubt (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reasonable_doubt) to convict crimes. Saying "but he can't sign the keys!" sadly doesn't cut it (because he could just say he lost them, which would be reasonable, and there would be no way to disprove it), and the fact that Satoshi Nakamoto is a fake identity whose owner is completely anonymous makes it all the more complicated.

LOL he’s just being so dumb. How can he be calling himself the creator of bitcoin when he doesn’t even have any proof that shows that he’s really the one? This man is really going to far with pissing a lot of people off.

So, he’s trying to say that’s he’s been the Satoshi that was posting in this forum back then? Lol. For him to make us believe him he should gain access to the wallet that is owned by Satoshi and that way we can believe that he’s the one. He doesn’t even have the access to the wallet, and he keeps saying that he lost his keys which is quite funny. How can the real Satoshi and the founder of bitcoin say that he lost access to his coins? That’s ridiculous :o.

I think we should leave him on his own situation and let him think that he is on top of the world. We know the reality. Even I have seen him posting some nonsense onto his website and many times he has directly or indirectly mentioned about him being the real satoshinakamoto. For god's sake, why would the real satoshi reveal his identity? Maybe the real satoshi too might be watching his website and launching to the fullest just because of how fake this individual is.

It would not be difficult for us to raise some funds and take Craig Wright to the court where he would surely be sentenced but speaking the truth, we do not have this much time to waste on a person stealing someones identity just for his own sake. He would bear his consequences.

haha, you are either so naive and gullible that have fallen for such an obvious scam that even a 10 year old would see through or you have some stake in this scam that you think Craig Scammer Wright even knew about bitcoin in early years let alone think he is Satoshi :D

Craig wright isn't the one who create the bitcoin nor the creator of bitcoin because as like what you have been said he doesn't have any access to the wallet that satoshi has in order for as to believe on him he must have a proof and evidence that he is the right person and he is the real satoshi nakamoto but until now he doesn't have any proof of it if he can provide a proof of access in the wallet of the real satoshi nakamoto then probably we can believe on him but no, he doesn't have any of that so this person is just pissing as off the best thing to do is that to believe on him.

There actually would be a number of things which can prove he is the real satoshi but he never takes anything seriously and tries to neglect such questions. Even I laughed whole heartedly when I heard that he lost control to his real wallet which was probably the wallet been used by the real satoshi. He might even login to the real satoshi account on this forum which is inactive since December 2010.

Even that might prove that he is the real founder of bitcoins but he has nothing to do with real satoshi and that is the reason why he keeps on neglecting such questions. We should actually treat this individual as a medium of entertainment and should only consider going through his articles on his websites just for fun.

That's right, eventually he'll do himself in on his own terms. We can just sit back and enjoy the ride, justice will come without our intermission. I'm sure he's got something bad going on with his brain, narcissistic manic people just don't stop. He's already lied to the court, a couple more of these incidends and he's done

We don't really knew who satoshi is that is why people are asking proof from CW because he claimed to be satoshi. What else can be done than ask proof. We can't just believe whatever he is saying and take all what he is saying as true.

There are other few people claiming to be the creator of BTC, should be believe him too because he claimed as satoshi as well. CW didn't give proof. If he can, he could have give it already by how excited he is in claiming. But he didn't.

The fact is that the cryptocurrency user community no longer doubts that Craig Wright is indeed an impostor and a scammer, but I can’t understand why Bitcoin SV, thanks to this person, began to rise in price actively.  I think this situation is a definite indicator.

I must confess his perseverance to prove to the whole world that he is satoshi nakamoto.Craig Wright faketoshi the most passionate
struggle to prove himself is the original satoshi nakamoto compared to other faketoshi. Then I feel sorry also because its delusional is
overdone. In my opinion craig wright is very obsessed with being satoshi nakamoto, so he doesn't can distinguish which is real which is
delusional. So in my opinion just let him live in his dream world.

Surely if he could move even 1 sat from the wallets associated with Satoshi to another wallet then it would mean he had the private keys - he cannot do anything that will prove his claim beyond doubt. The man is a compulsive lair and he has tainted the name of Satoshi for far too long.

Lols, he is even a pastor, yet he couldn't prove that he's the real Satoshi. He is a specialist at deceiving the public so he continues to sell his BSV to unsuspecting investors. He has a way of dodging the questions of the law court by asking for more time, with time people will understand who is lying.

As expected, Craig keeps on manipulating the situation to make people believe him. As if someone's going to trust a deceiver's words, why would someone be convinced by a person who creates a false reality point? it is clear that he's not the person behind that pseudonym and he will never be because he can't even fight for his stand. At the end of the day, he will just suffer the consequences of his action because it's definitely identity theft.

I have always wondered, what are the benefits for him by claiming to be Satoshi? I am also more surprised at people who believe his statement.
Come on, let's make it simple. Since the beginning Satoshi did not show his true identity, leave it like that and instead of dizzy thinking about and finding out who he really is, we better focus on developing ourselves in order to maximize the potential to benefit with bitcoin.
