Why Craig Wright so desperately wanted to be Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto

This weekend, cryptocurrency watchers were bestowed with the London Review of Books’ months-long, 35,000-word investigation into Craig Wright, the Australian man who claimed to be Satoshi Nakamoto, the pseudonymous creator of Bitcoin. Journalist Andrew O’Hagan brings us many curious details about Wright that ultimately raise more questions than they answer....

Craig Wright definitely wanted some fame and fortune... At first I thought it had nothing to do with money, because it seemed as though he was loaded, but now that he is filing patent claims in the

hope that it might bring in the fortunes, I am having my doubts. Nobody in his right mind, would drop that much money into something, if they think they would not succeed in getting some aspect of

it patented. These patent applications are not cheap. One of his excuses were that it became to expensive to continue with the experiment... What part was that... Mining for Bitcoin?

Well, if ever HE IS the real Satoshi Nakamoto and desperately claiming the name, maybe he just regretthe fact that he don't have the fame that Satoshi is having right now.  All the fame goes to Satoshi and with that the smallest unit of bitcoin is credited to him.  Also, maybe he would not think that bitcoin will become a huge thing now.  If ever he is the real Satoshi, will he change the unit satoshi to wright?
