The Bitcoin Fort Knox?
👨⚖️ Judge rules ‘Not Satoshi’
As the court battle between Craig Wright and COPA concluded this week, Judge James Mellor said the evidence was "overwhelming,” that:
Dr Wright is not the author of the Bitcoin White Paper.
Dr Wright is not Satoshi Nakamoto.
Dr Wright is not the person who created the Bitcoin System.
Dr Wright is not the author of the initial versions of the Bitcoin software.
The COPA legal team said Dr Wright had carried out "a massive campaign of dishonesty and forgery".
Don’t know who Wright is?
Here is the fastest summary possible… An Australian, who has claimed to be Satoshi since 2016 - but his claims and evidence to back them up have long been questioned by experts. He has been in and out of court for years in legal battles with individuals who challenged his story.

🇬🇧 Is the UK miserable?
The same week that the UK was voted the second most miserable country in the world, it saw a glimmer of hope for Bitcoin adoption.
The London Stock Exchange announced it will start to accept Bitcoin ETN applications. Not perfect but it is a step in the right direction.
BBC News were also back covering Bitcoin in a positive way due to the rise in price.
