COPA vs Wright: What's at Stake as the Trial to Determine Satoshi's Identity ...

[Lucius]

We all know that a court decision is one thing, but that it is something else entirely to implement that decision. Faketoshi must have tried to "hide" most of what he owns (which can be read in the article), and I sincerely doubt that COPA will be able to get the money that was awarded to them.

However, we finally experienced that one judge understood what was going on here and decided to end the more than obvious maltreatment of the court with something that could realistically have been established from the evidence a few years ago.

I'm just interested in what will happen in the event that there is simply no money, or that it is not available in the amount that the judge ruled? In some countries, the practice is that if you don't have the money to pay the fine, you go to prison - and £6m is a lot of days in jail

We collectively cared about this long enough if you ask me. I mean we shouldn't have spent even a day on this and we have spent weeks, even months following this situation. Thankfully its over and what we know came out to be the truth, what a shocker! I mean we already knew that he wasn't satoshi, we said that for years now and he just wanted to still keep going like he was satoshi anyway. The weird part is, dude was ridiculed and mocked everywhere he goes, nobody ever took him seriously, and he still does it. If I was humiliated like this ever, I would not only stop, but also put myself in my home and never contact anyone.

• Faketoshi need to pay 6 million British pound to cover COPA's court cost.
• UK court freeze faketoshi asset to make sure he'll make the payment.

No more cheap tricks from him?!
Freezing his assets was a smart decision from court, but that should not be a problem for him if he created Bitcoin like he lied... Bitcoin can't be frozen
I think it would be more effective if they held his passports, like they are doing with CZ in US.

Considering BSV price and few backing he had, it means there were few people who took him seriously.

Yeah, it's definitely smart decision considering faketoshi lied many times in the trial. And as reminder, BSV can be confiscated stolen "legally"[1].

These are really good updates and it should slow Wright down, if he starts 'paying' for his lies and deceit, he would not be able to sustain it for much longer. Wright is a conman, so i am sure he will still seek ways to avoid paying this money as ordered by the court. His defeat is surely a win for BTC and i hope we see the end of Wright very soon.

You think COPA people would have achieved anything if they had ignored CW Faketoshi? The whole thing has actually been going on since 2016 as far as I know, and if you ignore the lie it will eventually become the truth, especially if the one who wants to make the truth out of a lie has a lot of money at his disposal.

How did no one take it seriously when a court in the UK ruled that the Bitcoin whitepaper must be removed from bitcoin.org because no one disputed the claim that it was written by CW Faketoshi? In addition, CW Faketoshi was declared Satoshi Nakamoto by some institute (or something) in Colombia.

He'll have to work very hard then in order to convince judge to unfreeze his asset.

Actually it was declared by Council of Bogota[1], which is government institute. It also shows that council is either corrupt or stupid.

Maybe it's both

However, if we look at the fact that CW Faketoshi at one point managed to convince Gavin Andersen that he is the real Satoshi, and that he was the closest associate of the real Satoshi to whom he left Bitcoin, then we should not be surprised that these "geniuses" decided to believe in a bunch of lies.

I wonder how they feel now after the UK court ruling...
