In a recent disclosure, Craig Wright, generally recognised as the self-declared founder of Bitcoin and frequently referred to as “Fake Satoshi Nakamoto,” launched a harsh criticism on the cryptocurrency’s main developers. Wright charged the Bitcoin Core developers of deliberately stifling innovation and the work of conscientious builders in a series of tweets.
Wright argued that the effort put forward by committed individuals is rendered useless each time the protocol is changed. He said that the BTC Core developers violated artists’ rights by seeking to combine the ideas of open-source and public domain in order to effectively revoke property rights and commit theft.
It appears that Wright and the core devs have been at odds ever since Bitcoin itself was created.
The most recent development in this ongoing controversy occurred when a business connected to Craig Wright sued these developers for allegedly refusing to help recover assets that were purportedly compromised in February 2020.
However, the British court has rejected the allegations made by the self-described inventor of Bitcoin after carefully reviewing the case. It was emphasised in the judge’s decision that the defendants could not be held accountable for the alleged hacking event or forced to help Wright recover control of the assets. The court also made it clear that it is not the duty of BTC veterans to put security measures in place that protect users from major loss scenarios.
