Craig Wright Faces Potential Perjury Charges Over Satoshi Claims
Craig Wright, who has long claimed to be Bitcoin’s mysterious creator Satoshi Nakamoto, is now facing potential perjury charges in the United Kingdom. A High Court judge in London has referred the Australian computer scientist to British prosecutors after finding that he lied extensively to prove his identity as Nakamoto.
