Former Colleague Attempts to Halt Craig Wright’s Trial, Faces Potential Perjury Charges

Christen Ager-Hansen, a former associate of Craig Wright, reveals his efforts to prevent a disastrous court case from proceeding, which ultimately led to Wright potentially facing perjury charges. Despite Ager-Hansen’s belief that the case against Wright was unwinnable and that Wright was a fraud, others, including Wright’s billionaire supporter Calvin Ayre, persisted.

During the COPA vs. Wright trial, Wright falsely claimed to be Satoshi Nakamoto, resulting in High Court Judge Edward James Mellor ruling him guilty of lying extensively and repeatedly. Mellor referred the matter to the Crown Prosecution Service due to Wright’s deceitful actions.

Ager-Hansen recounts his first meeting with Wright in June 2022, where he was presented with forged documents claiming Wright to be Satoshi Nakamoto, a claim Ager-Hansen found to be untrue. He describes nChain, the company managing Bitcoin Satoshi’s Vision (BSV), as a “cult-like” environment driven by greed.

Despite Ager-Hansen’s warnings and a mock trial demonstrating Wright’s deceitfulness, both Wright and his backers, including Stefan Matthews and Calvin Ayre, brushed off concerns. The trial outcome, an expose on Wright’s falsehoods, could jeopardize his credibility in future cases.

Wright faces a myriad of legal battles, including potential perjury charges, defamation cases, and disputes with former colleagues and Bitcoin core developers. His questionable integrity and history of falsehoods are likely to undermine his standing in future legal proceedings.

With several pending legal issues and the fallout from the COPA trial, it seems Craig Wright’s once-tarnished reputation may land him in even deeper legal troubles. As the saga continues, one thing remains certain – the truth will eventually come to light, exposing the deceitful web Wright has spun.
