On Wednesday, the Kleiman estate, who accused Craig Wright of stealing $10 billion worth of Bitcoin from his deceased partner, filed a motion ordering Wright to pay approximately $658,000 in legal fees. The court found that Wright had illegally gained access to his partner’s share of Bitcoin back in 2013. In defense, Wright insisted that he never had access because the Bitcoin was stored in a blind trust. However, according to a digital forensics expert, Wright was lying about the trust since the ownership of that Bitcoin could prove that he was the real Bitcoin creator as he always claimed to be.
