Earlier this year, he released a blog post called ‘Forking and Passing Off’ claiming theft of 100 billion USD. He said that only he has the right to access the Bitcoin ledger and that developers did not have the right to change the software’s underlying databases. In his article, he explained the forking software branch and the intricacies of the derived codebases of Bitcoin’s original source code in detail.
Soon later, sued for stealing Bitcoin worth 5 million USD from a previous business partner. Reports say that he entered into a joint bitcoin mining partnership with his IT consultant Dave Kleiman who passed away recently. Kleiman alleged Wright in charges of deceiving the documents and backdated them after his consultant’s death so that it would appear that he had signed his shares away.
