Craig Steven Wright from BSV is a scammer, here is why

[Phu Juck]

Craig Steven Wright, also called CSW (or due to his appearance and track record also called "Faketoshi") from his Altcoin BSV is clearly a scammer and he should be called out any time, he’s spouting nonsense again and again, (which is very often).
His track record contains so many lies, fraud and misleading statements and actions, a list is becoming quite to long to be presented here but we will try of course to be a complete list as good as possible.


Craig Wright, is a scammer due to several reasons:


1. His claim to be Satoshi Nakamoto

CSW has repeatedly claimed to be Satoshi Nakamoto, who has created Bitcoin. Despite his claims, he has failed to provide verifiable proof. For instance, he has not signed a message from his private keys which would prove for him to be Satoshi Nakamoto. A sign from his private key would be his best proof to be Satoshi Nakamoto but he has failed to prove it so far.
Wright's narratives and technical explanations have often been inconsistent and contradictory. Technical experts and cryptographers have pointed out numerous inaccuracies in his statements about Bitcoin and its development, contradicting CSW’s claims to be Satoshi Nakamoto on various occasions.


2. Presenting questionable or faked evidence

CSW has presented various pieces of questionable evidence to support his claim, many of which have been debunked as fraudulent or manipulated. For example, he produced documents and digital signatures which were proven to be backdated or similarly exposed as fraud. CSW has a large background for presenting fraudulent or outright faked evidence.
Big Bitcoin developers, including key figures and developers, largely rejects Wright's claims.
Wright is also known for his aggressive behavior and his perception for attempting to leverage his claims for personal gain instead of contributing positively to Bitcoins ecosystem.


3. Bitcoin SV and market manipulation

Wright is behind BSV (called "Bitcoin Satoshis Vision"), a fraudulent hard fork of Bitcoin. It is assumed for CSW to push his fraudulent fork shitcoin as an attempt by Wright to create and control a version of Bitcoin which aligns his vision and to profit from his association, instead of contributing to Bitcoin’s decentralized principles on which Bitcoin was founded. His copied fork is as fraudulent as a shitcoin can get.


4. CSW and his lawsuit again Hodlonaut

Wright has been involved in numerous legal disputes, often suing critics and people who don’t believe his claim of being Satoshi. Such lawsuits are seen by many as attempts to silence detractors instead of legitimate legal opposition.
One of his biggest lawsuits has been against Hodlonaut and his lawsuit has garnered significant attention:  

In March 2019, Hodlonaut posted several tweets calling Craig Wright a fraud and disputing his claim to be Satoshi Nakamoto, creator of Bitcoin. Hodlonaut used a hashtag, called "#CraigWrightIsAFraud," which gained traction among critics of Wright's claims.

As a response to Hodlonaut’s tweets, Wright initiated legal action against Hodlonaut, alleging defamation. Wright's lawyers demanded to Hodlonaut to retract his statements, delete his tweets, and publicly apologize. CSW also offered a bounty to anyone who could provide information about Hodlonaut's real identity.

Of course, no one in Bitcoin’s community wanted to support CSW and a big opposition arrived in defending of Hodlonaut. Even a legal defense fund, called "We Are All Hodlonaut", was established to help cover his legal expenses.
  
CSW proceeded in his lawsuit against Hodlonaut, making it a big case but finally, Hodlonaut won and CSW did once again not provide enough evidence to back up his claim to be Satoshi Nakamoto. Also, Wright was sued to cover Hodlonaut's legal fees.
CWS vs. Hodlonaut is a great example, how CSW tries to legitimize his shitcoin called BSV and how he always fails to present enough evidence because CSW finally lost against Hodlonaut.
We might see CSW presenting more questionable evidence and failing his to prove his claim to be Satoshi Nakamoto again and again, which only would contribute to his track record to be a misleading scammer and fraudster.

His lack of credible evidence supporting his claims and his controversial actions have really damaged his reputation.

You no longer need to try to call out his lies, his story was always fake for all to see and now this has also been backed by the courts^[1]. He legally cannot continue to impersonate satoshi and now has a global freeze on his accounts to repay cost of suits against him. Until there is another scam attempt by CSW, he should not get any publicity on here and his debunked lies should not be promoted either.

In other news, water is wet. Here is why.

Water is considered "wet" because of its ability to adhere to surfaces and spread over them. This property arises from several factors:

1. Cohesion and Adhesion: Water molecules are polar, meaning they have a slight positive charge on one end and a slight negative charge on the other. This causes water molecules to stick to each other (cohesion) and to other surfaces (adhesion). When water adheres to a surface, it creates the sensation of wetness.

2. Surface Tension: Water has a high surface tension due to the strong cohesive forces between its molecules. This allows it to form droplets and spread across surfaces, creating a thin film that we perceive as wetness.

3. Perception of Wetness: Our sensory receptors detect the presence of water and interpret the physical sensation of it on our skin as being wet. This is a subjective experience based on the interaction of water with our skin and the resulting sensory feedback.

So, water is wet because of its physical properties and how they interact with surfaces and our sensory perception.

He definitely is a scammer and Hodlonaut called him our right away. Good job from Hodlonaut I can only say. 

That was the point.

CSW friend detected if your only issue is alleged AI generating of my post (you need to prove your accusation) and you don't see and issue in CSW behavior
I can just see a butthurt troll, who is sad because CSW was called out once again.

I did not say your post was generated by AI, my point was that your post is so dumb AI could generate it.
You did not even understand my "water is wet" analogy - it means I agree he is a scammer, that everyone knows he is a scammer so there is no point of writing about it 1000x times.

You're not very bright.

Well, better check twice again before making accusations.
And a post calling out CSW as a scammer is NEVER dumb!
