Craig Wright Files £911 Billion Lawsuit Against Bitcoin Core and Square Over Bitcoin Integrity

Source Beincrypto

Craig Wright, the Australian computer scientist who claims to have created Bitcoin, has filed a new lawsuit regarding the top digital asset.

On October 11, a UK High Court case tracker revealed that Wright’s legal action targets Bitcoin Core, the technology behind Bitcoin’s distribution, and Square. He later clarified on X that he is suing not just the Bitcoin Core developers but also all affiliated parties.

Wright Files £911 Billion Claim Against Bitcoin Core

Wright’s lawsuit seeks approximately £911 billion from Bitcoin Core and Square. He alleges that they misrepresented Bitcoin (BTC) as the genuine version of the digital asset espoused by Satoshi Nakamoto, the developer of the top crypto. Notably, Wright is representing himself in this case, identifying as a “litigant-in-person.”

In a post on X, Wright expressed his willingness to debate any official representatives from Bitcoin Core. He emphasized that if Bitcoin Core could prove it adheres to the original concept of Bitcoin, as outlined by Nakamoto, he would drop all litigation immediately. Wright insists that honesty is paramount and demands no obfuscation or evasions—only the unvarnished truth.

Wright argues that the top crypto should not serve the interests of the powerful. He believes Nakamoto designed Bitcoin as electronic cash for small, casual transactions, a well-defined and documented vision. He then challenged Bitcoin Core to demonstrate their commitment to these principles.

“If BTC Core wishes to assert that they are the true continuation of Bitcoin, they must do so openly and transparently, and they must do it on the basis of the original design. The burden of proof is theirs. If they can demonstrate, through fact and reason, that they have upheld the principles of small, peer-to-peer transactions, of a decentralized, electronic cash system—then I will have no need to continue with my lawsuits,” Wright stated.

The controversial scientist further clarified that his new lawsuit is unrelated to Satoshi Nakamoto’s identity.

“The issue at hand is not about who Satoshi is, but whether BTC Core has adhered to those original, foundational principles. This debate is about the integrity of Bitcoin’s design, not the identity of its creator,” Wright added.

It’s important to note that a UK court previously ruled against Wright, stating that he is not a Bitcoin developer and that he has extensively misrepresented this claim. Following this ruling, a legal notice on Wright’s website now states that he is not Satoshi and has been ordered to cease any further legal actions based on these false claims.

This lawsuit comes shortly after Wright threatened to sue MicroStrategy CEO Michael Saylor for allegedly misrepresenting Bitcoin. Wright accused Saylor of suggesting that BTC aligns with the original Bitcoin whitepaper. It remains unclear whether this threat is related to his recent lawsuit.

Bitcoin lost its 200-day average — but the exit started three sessions before the CPI Bitcoin fell 2.5% to about $73,400 on 11 November, an 11-week low, breaking its 200-day moving average near $73,100. The 24-hour liquidation tally reached $632 to $705 million, roughly 82% of it longs. But spot ETF outflows began three sessions earlier and USDT's market cap has shrunk $6.6 billion in 60 days — the leveraged length left before the inflation print did. A double top at 81,890 and 81,080 leaves a measured target of 69,366.

Nvidia slid 7.7% after hours while AMD and Broadcom rose — the AI trade changed hands, it didn't break Nvidia closed Wednesday at 173.73, up 2.87%, then fell as much as 8.1% to 159.44 after reports that its board was preparing for a possible leadership change. The same session, the Philadelphia Semiconductor Index rose 5.7% with all 30 components higher, CoreWeave jumped 24.7% on 168% revenue growth, and Micron added 11.9%. If AI demand were being repriced, AMD and Broadcom would not be bid. This is a governance discount on one name, and 204.54 — the 200-day average — is the level that settles it.

Gold hit a one-year low while central banks bought 321 tonnes — the sellers were never the ones you think Spot gold closed at 3,876 on Thursday, down 2.8% and its lowest close in more than a year, with an intraday low near 3,852. The dollar is at a 19-month high of 103.21 and the 10-year yield is at 5.10%, so the price move is easy to explain. What is harder to explain is who sold: central banks bought 321 tonnes in Q3, the PBoC added for a 24th straight month, ETF holdings are near a record 4,256 tonnes, and roughly 95% of the futures selling came from non-reportable and sovereign-type accounts rather than hedge funds. This piece separates the two books that have to balance.

Brent rose 3.3% and US crude stocks built 4.66 million barrels in the same week Brent January settled at 95.82, up 3.3%, and WTI at 88.74, up 2.55%, after the US signalled it would not pursue a deal with Iran and attacks on Gulf shipping continued. In the same week, EIA data showed US crude inventories rising 4.657 million barrels against expectations of a 1.1 million draw, with gasoline up another 1.799 million. OPEC output also rebounded 1.96 million barrels a day to 27.16 million in October, led by Saudi Arabia at 10.56 million. This piece separates the geopolitical premium from the physical balance and lays out where each side of the trade is anchored.
