Mr. Wright is a person who came forward as Satoshi Nakamoto with strong evidence in 2016, but its authenticity is still unknown. He is a person with no shortage of topics who has just dismissed this lawsuit in December 2021 after receiving a lawsuit from the bereaved family of a person who is said to be the co-developer of Bitcoin because he came forward.

Mr. Wright is a person who created Bitcoin SV (BSV) by further hard forking Bitcoin Cash (BCH), which was created by hard forking Bitcoin (BTC) in the past. Mr. Wright was said to have owned 14 million pounds (about 2.2 billion yen) of Bitcoin SV, but since the private key was deleted by a hacker in 2020, it is in a situation where it cannot be accessed even though it has ownership. I'm complaining. In order to regain Bitcoin SV, Mr. Wright filed a lawsuit against 15 developers and the Swiss company BITCOIN ASSOCIATION FOR BSV, saying that he was ``obligated to rewrite the underlying code''.
Mr. Wright also asked the developers to pay legal costs, but this time the High Court of England and Wales ordered Mr. Wright to pay the full legal costs if Mr. Wright lost. Developers except for one and BITCOIN ASSOCIATION FOR BSV filed an objection regarding the content of the lawsuit and the payment of the cost, but the claim was accepted for the payment of the cost.
