比特幣的「發明者」克雷格賴特承認他沒有創造世界上第一個加密貨幣

克雷格·賴特(Craig Wright) 博士在他的網站上發布了一份法律聲明，聲明他不是比特幣的化名創造者中本聰(Satoshi Nakamoto)，此前高等法院於3 月份作出裁決，駁回了他的主張。

A man who has spent the last eight years claiming to be the inventor of bitcoin has finally admitted that he did not create the world’s first cryptocurrency.

一個在過去八年裡一直聲稱自己是比特幣發明者的人終於承認他沒有創造世界上第一個加密貨幣。

Dr Craig Wright posted a legal notice to his website stating that he is not bitcoin’s pseudonymous creator Satoshi Nakamoto following a High Court ruling in March that dismissed his claims.

克雷格·賴特(Craig Wright) 博士在他的網站上發布了一份法律聲明，聲明他不是比特幣的化名創造者中本聰(Satoshi Nakamoto)，此前高等法院於3 月份作出裁決，駁回了他的主張。

The case was brought against the Australian computer scientist by a coalition of crypto businesses, who accused him of “industrial scale” forgery in his previous efforts to sue bitcoin developers for using the technology.

該案是由加密貨幣企業聯盟對這位澳洲電腦科學家提起的，該聯盟指控他在先前起訴比特幣開發人員使用該技術的過程中進行了「工業規模」的偽造。

The presiding judge, Justice Mellor, said at the time that Dr Wright lied “extensively and repeatedly” in his attempts to convince people he was Satoshi Nakamoto.

主審法官梅勒法官當時表示，賴特博士在試圖讓人們相信他就是中本聰的過程中「廣泛且反覆地」撒謊。

“The evidence is overwhelming that Dr Wright is not the author of the bitcoin white paper,” Justice Mellor said after the case concluded.

「有壓倒性的證據表明賴特博士不是比特幣白皮書的作者，」梅勒法官在案件結束後表示。

“Most of his lies related to the documents he had forged, which purported to support his claim... Dr Wright’s attempts to prove he was/is Satoshi Nakamoto represent a most serious abuse of this court’s process.”

“他的大部分謊言都與他偽造的文件有關，這些文件旨在支持他的主張……賴特博士試圖證明他是中本聰，這是對本法院程序的最嚴重濫用。”

Justice Mellor has now said he will refer the case to the Crown Prosecution Service “for consideration of whether a prosecution should be commenced against Dr Wright” for wholescale perjury and forgery of documents.

梅勒法官現已表示，他將將此案移交給皇家檢察署，「以考慮是否應對賴特博士提起大規模偽證和偽造文件的起訴」。

Dr Wright, who is currently based in the UK, also faces potential extradition proceedings.

目前居住在英國的賴特博士也面臨潛在的引渡程序。

The statement posted to his website on Tuesday acknowledged that he had been dishonest in his claims to be the creator of the world’s first cryptocurrency.

週二在他的網站上發布的聲明承認，他聲稱自己是世界上第一個加密貨幣的創造者，這是不誠實的。

“The court found that Dr Wright ‘lied to the court extensively and repeatedly’ in his evidence and that he attempted to create a false narrative by forging documents ‘on a grand scale’ and presenting them as evidence... Dr Wright is not the author of the Bitcoin White Paper,” the legal notice states, referring to the 2008 document authored by the pseudonymous Satoshi Nakamoto, which first introduced the concept of bitcoin to the world.

“法院發現，賴特博士在其證據中‘廣泛且反复地向法庭撒謊’，並試圖通過‘大規模’偽造文件並將其作為證據來製造虛假敘述……賴特博士不是法律聲明稱，該文件是由化名中本聰(Satoshi Nakamoto) 撰寫的2008 年文件，該文件首次向世界介紹了比特幣的概念。

“Dr Wright is not the person who adopted or operated under the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto in the period between 2008 and 2011... Dr Wright is not the person who created the bitcoin system.”

“賴特博士不是在 2008 年至 2011 年間採用中本聰筆名或以中本聰名義進行操作的人……賴特博士不是創建比特幣系統的人。”
