but then he claims to have sided with a somewhat smaller state, and seems to be defrauding them of their opportunity to matter in the bitcoin world
In August 2017, the government of Antigua and Barbuda appointed him a Special Economic Envoy with responsibility for advising on economic cooperation and commerce between Antigua and Barbuda and other sovereign states where blockchain technology is being utilized. Mr Ayre will also liaise with other companies in the Bitcoin industry and educate on the advantages of using Antigua as a base for some of their operations.
Ayre, who not only holds Antiguan citizenship but is also a major local employer, takes his diplomatic role seriously, and is a strong proponent of new technology’s capacity to assist developing economies in playing a greater role in international commerce. In particular, Ayre supports the original Bitcoin economic model which now only exists with the Bitcoin SV (BSV) public blockchain because its massive on-chain scaling can handle high volumes of micro-transactions with low transaction fees and its stable protocol is appealing to Enterprise applications.
Wright seems to have started writing editorial for Coingeek with this disingenuousness

Unfortunately, Satoshi did not stick around to see his suggested upgrade take place. With his departure, there was a power vacuum, and the scaling roadmap was hijacked.
and he still seems conflicted (the 'Satoshi Nakamato' quoted below is a hyperlink to
https://coingeek.com/dr-craig-wright-satoshi/ by some girl who "started her career covering crime news" and evidently hasn't moved on) even as he now contributes much less often
This is the Bitcoin that Satoshi Nakamoto created over a decade ago.
The problem with Bitcoin was however, wasn’t the system itself. When Satoshi left the project, its development was no longer protected. What should have been a stable protocol, became a hijacked protocol.
I opine that we may yet see Wright bamboozle a British-establishment judge for a while (not that hard a feat), but when the drama is over, Ayre can also profess bamboozlement and drop him like one of his tarts reaching her majority, the analogy including that he knows that day is coming.
The 'price' of BTC will react to milestones in Wright's court cases by going down if we're in a bear trend and up if we're in a bull.
The BTC protocol will remain unaffected by any of it.
