One of the creators of the new blockchain and its front man is the self-proclaimed Satoshi Nakamoto, Craig S. Wright, an Australian IT scientist and entrepreneur.
He made himself famous not only by claiming to be the real Bitcoin creator but also by threatening to sue multiple crypto influencers for calling him a fraudster.
