Craig Wright’s new X account still makes it clear he’s not Satoshi
Craig Wright has ditched his main X (formerly Twitter) account and redirected users to another profile with 32,600 fewer followers five months after he lost his UK Bitcoin court case.
The post was shared by someone named ‘LB’ on Wright’s behalf. They told followers of @Dr_CSWright that the account was no longer in use and to follow the @CsTominaga account for “blockchain and Bitcoin information.”
This new account mostly posts vague content about the creation of Bitcoin and its technology. It also includes a pinned tweet that reads, “Legal notice: Dr Craig Steven Wright is not Satoshi Nakamoto.”
Wright is legally bound to disclose this statement after he lost his Bitcoin case last March and was subjected to a court injunction on July 16.
The account claimed, “Today, for the first time, I am truly free,” and noted that, “Going forward, I am establishing my own websites and other platforms to publish my papers and link the documents I am writing.”
Craig Wright is attempting to submit two appeals
Over the weekend, the UK appeals case tracker was also updated to include not one, but two appeal applications from Wright.
It lists a request for appeal against Peter McCormack and a $1.9 million freezing order McCormack successfully applied for against Wright. Judge Justice Mellor approved this order on July 5. This request for appeal states it is, “Awaiting bundles and/or documents from applicant/applicant’s solicitors.”

His request to appeal the decision in the Crypto Open Patent Alliance (COPA) case is now also visible and also states that it’s awaiting documents from relevant parties.
Protos reported that the law firm representing COPA, Bird & Bird, said it’s “confident that there is no proper basis for the appeal.” The podcast Dr Bitcoin reported that his appeal request is over 500 pages long and equivalent to a four-inch stack of paper.
