Bitcoin Developers Free to Contribute Again as Craig Wright Drops Lawsuit
Self-proclaimed inventor of Bitcoin, Dr. Craig Wright, has dropped his lawsuit against 12 Bitcoin developers in the Tulip Trading Limited v. Bitcoin Association for BSV Others case. The Bitcoin Legal Defense Fund has confirmed that this means Bitcoin developers are once again free to contribute to the network without the threat of litigation and harassment. The lawsuit stemmed from Wright's claim that the Bitcoin developers refused to help him retrieve 111,000 BTC allegedly stolen in a hack that he claimed to own. The news comes after UK High Court Judge James Mellor declared that Wright was not Satoshi Nakamoto and did not write the Bitcoin whitepaper in March.
