Craig Wright once again promised to provide evidence that he is the creator of Bitcoin Satoshi Nakamoto, but mentioned the latter in the third person.
The incident happened during the London conference CC London Investment in Blockchain and AI Forum 2019, reports Cointelegraph .
“Either I am Satoshi, or he coordinated me. Choose. It doesn’t bother me much, since he stole entire paragraphs from one of my works. Therefore, it’s either me or … I don’t care whether you like it or not, ” he concluded.
Wright had in mind the scientific work that he allegedly wrote in 2008, but the community has no evidence of its existence. According to him, the white paper of bitcoin contains parts of it.
Moreover, his statements have repeatedly turned out to be partial or complete lies. Doubts about his honesty appeared even before the creation of bitcoin – in one of the court cases of 2005.
