克雷格·賴特因藐視法庭被判處一年監禁，法律困境加深

法官詹姆斯·愛德華·梅勒 (James Edward Mellor) 在對賴特的行為進行徹底分析後做出了這一決定，法院裁定，賴特的行為包括「重大行為」。

Craig Wright, who claims to be Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto, has been sentenced to one year in prison by a UK judge for contempt of court on Thursday.

自稱比特幣創造者中本聰的克雷格·賴特 (Craig Wright) 週四因藐視法庭被英國法官判處一年監禁。

This decision, made by Justice James Edward Mellor, comes after an extensive review of Wright’s conduct, which the court found included “significant and persistent falsehoods” regarding his status as Bitcoin’s founder.

法官詹姆斯·愛德華·梅勒(James Edward Mellor) 在對賴特的行為進行了廣泛審查後做出了這一決定，法院發現賴特的行為包括關於他作為比特幣創始人的身份的“重大且持續的謊言」。

The sentence is however suspended for two years, meaning that Wright will only serve time if he commits further offenses during this probationary period.

然而，刑期緩期兩年，這意味著賴特只有在緩刑期間再次犯下罪行才會服刑。

Craig Wright’s Legal Deepen

克雷格·賴特的《法律深化》

This ruling pertains to a high-profile case where Craig Wright filed a massive $1.15 trillion lawsuit against Bitcoin developers and payments company Square. The court found that he breached a previous order that barred him from publicly claiming to be Satoshi Nakamoto and pursuing legal actions based on this assertion.

這項裁決涉及一個備受矚目的案件，其中 Craig Wright 對比特幣開發商和支付公司 Square 提起了 1.15 兆美元的巨額訴訟。法院發現，他違反了先前的一項命令，該命令禁止他公開聲稱自己是中本聰，並根據這項主張採取法律行動。

At the recent hearing, Wright reportedly indicated his intention to appeal the contempt finding, though he could not be immediately reached for comment.

據報道，在最近的聽證會上，賴特表示打算對藐視法庭的裁決​​提出上訴，但無法立即聯繫到他置評。

However, Wright’s legal troubles escalated as the Crypto Open Patent Alliance (COPA), a consortium of cryptocurrency companies, proceeded with their proceedings against him.

然而，隨著加密貨幣公司聯盟「加密貨幣開放專利聯盟」(COPA) 對賴特提起訴訟，賴特的法律麻煩不斷升級。

COPA sought a formal declaration that Craig Wright is not Satoshi Nakamoto, in an effort to curb his ability to pursue multiple lawsuits against Bitcoin developers and others regarding intellectual property rights connected to Bitcoin.

COPA 尋求正式聲明克雷格·賴特 (Craig Wright) 不是中本聰 (Satoshi Nakamoto)，以限制他就與比特幣相關的知識產權對比特幣開發商和其他人提起多項訴訟的能力。

During the six-week trial, Justice Mellor delivered an unusual snap verdict, stating, “The evidence is overwhelming.” He concluded that Wright was not the individual who operated under the pseudonym Satoshi Nakもと and accused him of deliberately fabricating documents to support his claims.

在為期六週的審判中，梅勒法官做出了不同尋常的倉促判決，他表示：“證據是壓倒性的。”他得出的結論是，賴特並不是以中本聰（Satoshi Nakもと）為筆名進行活動的人，並指責他故意偽造文件來支持自己的主張。

The judge characterized Craig Wright’s actions as a “vehicle for fraud,” highlighting that his extensive lies were aimed at bolstering his primary falsehood: his identity as Bitcoin’s creator.

法官將克雷格·賴特的行為描述為“欺詐工具”，並強調他的廣泛謊言旨在支持他的主要謊言：他作為比特幣創造者的身份。

Along with the contempt ruling, Justice Mellor also directed the Crown Prosecution Service (CPS) to consider pursuing criminal charges against Wright for what he described as “wholesale perjury.” As of now, no perjury charges have been filed against him.

除了藐視法庭裁決之外，梅勒法官還指示皇家檢察署（CPS）考慮對賴特提出刑事指控，罪名是他所稱的「大規模偽證」。截至目前，尚未對他提出偽證指控。

Wright’s Claims Of Bitcoin Alteration Rejected

賴特關於比特幣篡改的主張被駁回

Craig Wright’s October lawsuit against Square and Bitcoin developers accused them of “misrepresenting” Bitcoin (BTC) as the original cryptocurrency.

克雷格懷特 (Craig Wright) 10 月對 Square 和比特幣開發人員提起訴訟，指控他們「歪曲」比特幣 (BTC) 作為原始加密貨幣。

He alleged that they had altered the original Bitcoin protocol without authorization, asserting that these changes deviated fundamentally from the system defined by Satoshi Nakamoto in the Bitcoin White Paper.

他聲稱他們未經授權更改了原始比特幣協議，並聲稱這些更改從根本上偏離了中本聰在比特幣白皮書中定義的系統。

COPA on the other hand, argued that Craig Wright’s lawsuit violated the legal injunctions placed upon him, alleging contempt on five separate grounds.

另一方面，COPA 認為克雷格·賴特的訴訟違反了針對他的法律禁令，並以五個不同的理由指控其藐視法庭。

In his judgment, Justice Mellor ordered Wright to discontinue his legal actions against Square and the Bitcoin developers, stating, “There is no doubt whatever that each of these contempts has been proved.”

在判決中，梅勒法官命令賴特停止對 Square 和比特幣開發商採取法律行動，並表示：“毫無疑問，這些蔑視行為都已得到證實。”

Craig Wright had been expected to attend a hearing to address the contempt claims but failed to appear, citing potential financial losses in excess of £240,000 ($303,000) as the reason for his absence. Reports suggest he is currently in Asia, possibly in Singapore or Indonesia, but he did not disclose his exact location when asked by the court.

克雷格·賴特 (Craig Wright) 原本預計將出席一場解決藐視法庭指控的聽證會，但他未能出席，他缺席的原因是潛在的財務損失超過 240,000 英鎊（303,000 美元）。有報導稱他目前在亞洲，可能在新加坡或印度尼西亞，但在法庭詢問時他沒有透露具體位置。

At press time, Bitcoin is trading at $96,340, having lost the key $100,000 mark following the US Federal Reserve’s (Fed) decision to cut interest rates on Wednesday. Currently, BTC is down nearly 5% over the past 24 hours.

截至發稿時，比特幣交易價格為 96,340 美元，在聯準會 (Fed) 週三決定降息後，比特幣跌破了 10 萬美元關鍵關口。目前，BTC在過去24小時內下跌了近5%。
