Today, COPA initiated a lawsuit asking the UK High Court to declare that Mr. Craig Wright does not have copyright ownership over the Bitcoin White Paper. We stand in support of the Bitcoin developer community and the many others who've been threatened for hosting the White Paper.

Justice Mellor found that: 1) Dr Wright is not the author of the Bitcoin White Paper. 2) Dr Wright is not Satoshi Nakamoto. 3) Dr Wright is not the person who created the Bitcoin System. 4) Dr Wright is not the author of the initial versions of the Bitcoin software. 1/4

COPA stands for an open financial system and was formed to remove barriers that stifle innovation. We are hosting the Bitcoin whitepaper and stand with our members and the crypto community to address this issue. Here’s our letter in response to last week’s cease and desists.

Hard pass on that "settlement." Just like Craig Wright forges documents and doesn't quite tell the truth, his description of the settlement offer isn't quite accurate either - it comes with loopholes that would allow him to sue people all over again.

COPA just won its first hearing against Craig: bailii.org/ew/cases/EWHC/…. Interesting read. Why did he try to get the court to block that evidence though?🤔

Today’s courtroom lowlight: Wright repeatedly failed to explain basic aspects of the cryptographic techniques at the heart of Satoshi’s invention. He couldn’t even explain what an “unsigned” C++ variable meant - a computing concept that any real programmer would learn on day 1.

For over eight years, Dr. Wright and his financial backers have lied about his identity as Satoshi Nakamoto and used that lie to bully and intimidate developers in the bitcoin community. 3/4

“12 reasons why Craig Wright is not Satoshi Nakamoto” Our trial to prove that Craig Wright is not Satoshi Nakamoto closes this week. Throughout trial, we’ve exposed Wright’s serial forgeries and identified point after point that shows he is not the real Satoshi.

It also would force us to accept that he is Satoshi. Take a look at COPA’s dissection of new documents Wright said would win him the case - which Wright’s own expert says are forged:
