    Satoshi Pretender Craig Wright Dodges Two-Year Jail Sentence

    There he goes again. Craig Wright, the computer scientist whom a UK court ruled in March was absolutely not Satoshi Nakamoto, was found in contempt of court Thursday for continuing to assert his identity as the mysterious inventor of Bitcoin. Wright, who is believed to be in Asia and did not show up for the London hearing, faced as much as two years in the slammer, per UK contempt-sentencing guidelines. High Court Judge James Mellor suspended the sentence for two years, provided that Wright stop...

To date, over 3000 sightings have been reported across several states, including New Jersey, New York, and Maryland. The first sightings beg...
