Per a post from Ontier, the self-proclaimed inventor of Bitcoin Craig Wright filed a lawsuit against leading crypto exchanges Coinbase and Kraken.
Filed on April 29, 2022, on Behalf of Wright and these associated companies, in the Intellectual Property List of the Business and Property Courts of England and Wales.
The claimants, according to Ontier, believe that these platforms have been promoting and “encouraging” investors to “trade and invest” in a “fake Bitcoin”.
Per the document, Wright and his legal representation seek an “injunction” that could prevent major exchange platforms to offer BTC to their clients, depending on the court’s verdict.
These actions are undoubtedly game-changing for the digital asset market.
These include their lawsuit against Bitcoin core developers, against Peter McCormak, host of the “What Bitcoin Did” podcast, against the Crypto Open Patent Alliance, and others.
