Bitcoin Founder’s Identity Remains A Mystery As Craig Wright Admits He’s Not Satoshi Nakamoto

Craig Wright, an Australian computer scientist who claimed to be Satoshi Nakamoto, the pseudonymous Bitcoin creator, has publicly recanted his statements after being found guilty of making false claims and committing forgery.
Craig Wright Is Not Bitcoin Creator Satoshi Nakamoto
The identity of the elusive Bitcoin founder remains one of the greatest mysteries in the crypto space as Satoshi Nakamoto impersonator, Craig Wright publicly confessed to not being the creator of Bitcoin. After years of asserting he was Nakamoto, Wright admitted on his personal website via a legal notice that his claims were false.
The notice disclosed that on May 20, 2024, Wright was found guilty by the High Court of England and Wales of being dishonest in his assertions to be the person behind “the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto.” The court also discovered that Wright lied “extensively and repeatedly” in his evidence, creating various false narratives in his attempt to bolster his false claims.
Additionally, the court exposed Wright for forging various documents and presenting them as evidence in his defense to support his erroneous claims. As a result, the court denounced Wright’s actions as “a most serious abuse,” which inherently undermined the judicial processes of the courts of the United Kingdom (UK), Norway and the United States (US).
Following the denouncement, the High Court unequivocally stated that Wright is not the author of the Bitcoin white paper, the foundational document outlining BTC’s principles and mechanics. They ruled that Wright is not the owner of the copyright to the Bitcoin white paper and not the author of the initial versions of the Bitcoin software.
Furthermore, the High Court declared that Wright was not the person who adopted or operated under the pseudonym “Satoshi Nakamoto” in the period between 2008 and 2011 when BTC’s foundations were laid. The court has also rejected Wright’s assertions of being the creator of the Bitcoin system, dispelling any remaining doubt about his false role in creating Bitcoin.
Court Orders Strict Prohibitions On Wright
In addition to the court’s clear-cut ruling on Wright’s false claims, several stringent conditions and measures have been imposed on the self-proclaimed Bitcoin creator to prevent further legal actions based on his previous discredited assertions.
Wright has been explicitly ordered by the High Court to refrain from initiating any legal proceedings, whether as a claimant or a counterclaim. He has also been prohibited from encouraging or involving others in any legal activities involving such actions.
The court has further ordered Wright to not issue any threats of legal action, whether explicit or inexplicit on the basis of any of his false assertions involving being the Bitcoin creator. The order also extends towards preventing Wright from procuring any other person to threaten legal action.
The High Court’s comprehensive and definitive rulings and strict orders mark a decisive end to Wright’s long-standing claims of being the Bitcoin founder. This development also serves as a deterrent and warning against making false claims in the crypto space.

Strategy Adds 22,048 BTC for Nearly $2 Billion

Michael Saylor announced that Strategy purchased nearly $2 billion worth of Bitcoin. This is a massive leap over last week’s purchase, which was already quite substantial.
Nonetheless, the firm was only able to make this acquisition thanks to major stock offerings. Bitcoin’s price has been sinking over the last few weeks, and this could mature into a potential liquidation crisis.
Strategy Maintains Bitcoin Purchases
Since Strategy (formerly MicroStrategy) began acquiring Bitcoin, it’s become one of the world’s largest BTC holders. This plan has totally reoriented the company around its massive acquisitions, inspiring other firms to take up the same plan.
Today, the firm’s Chair, Michael Saylor, announced another purchase, much larger than the last few.
“Strategy has acquired 22,048 BTC for ~$1.92 billion at ~$86,969 per bitcoin and has achieved BTC Yield of 11.0% YTD 2025. As of 3/30/2025, Strategy holds 528,185 BTC acquired for ~$35.63 billion at ~$67,458 per bitcoin,” Saylor claimed via social media.
Strategy’s latest Bitcoin acquisition, worth just shy of $2 billion, is a major commitment. In February, the firm made a similar $2 billion purchase, and it was followed by a tiny $10 million buy and a $500 million one. The $500 million purchase, which took place on March 24, only happened thanks to a huge new stock offering. This move further cements Strategy’s faith in BTC.
By making these billion-dollar buys, Strategy is able to buttress the entire market’s confidence in Bitcoin. However, investors should be aware of a few potential cracks.
First of all, Bitcoin’s performance is a little subpar at the moment. Despite hitting an all-time high recently, Bitcoin is having its worst quarter since 2019, and there is not much forward momentum.

This could cause a unique problem for the company. Since Strategy is a cornerstone of market confidence, it is unable to offload its assets without jeopardizing Bitcoin’s price.
The firm’s debts are growing at a fast rate, and this could have dangerous implications if Bitcoin keeps falling. Strategy could be forced to liquidate, even if that seems unlikely now.
Still, it’s important to remember that these are only possible scenarios. Strategy has maintained its consistent Bitcoin investments for nearly five years, and it’s paid off tremendously well. However, if it keeps taking on billions in fresh debt obligations, this faith will turn into a gamble with very high stakes.

BTC Price Rebound Likely as Long-Term Holders Reenter Market

Bitcoin (BTC) is on track to end Q1 with its worst performance since 2019. Without an unexpected recovery, BTC could close the quarter with a 25% decline from its all-time high (ATH).
Some analysts have noted that experienced Bitcoin holders are shifting into an accumulation phase, signaling potential price growth in the medium term.
Signs That Veteran Investors Are Accumulating Again
According to AxelAdlerJr, March 2025 marks a transition period where veteran investors move from selling to holding and accumulating. This shift is reflected in the Value Days Destroyed (VDD) metric, which remains low.
VDD is an on-chain indicator that tracks investor behavior by measuring the number of days Bitcoin remains unmoved before being transacted.
A high VDD suggests that older Bitcoin is being moved, which may indicate selling pressure from whales or long-term holders. A low VDD suggests that most transactions involve short-term holders, who have a smaller impact on the market.

Historically, low VDD periods often precede strong price rallies. These phases suggest that investors are accumulating Bitcoin with expectations of future price increases. AxelAdlerJr concludes that this shift signals Bitcoin’s potential for medium-term growth.
“The transition of experienced players into a holding (accumulation) phase signals the potential for further BTC growth in the medium term,” AxelAdlerJr predicted.
Bitcoin’s Sell-Side Risk Ratio Hits Low
At the same time, analyst Ali highlighted another bullish indicator: Bitcoin’s sell-side risk ratio had dropped to 0.086%.

According to Ali, over the past two years, every time this ratio fell below 0.1%, Bitcoin experienced a strong price rebound. For example, in January 2024, Bitcoin surged to a then-all-time high of $73,800 after the sell-side risk ratio dipped below 0.1%.
Similarly, in September 2024, Bitcoin hit a new peak after this metric reached a low level.
The combination of veteran investors accumulating Bitcoin and a sharp decline in the sell-side risk ratio are positive signals for the market. However, a recent analysis from BeInCrypto warns of concerning technical patterns, with a death cross beginning to form.
Additionally, investors remain cautious about potential market volatility in early April. The uncertainty stems from President Trump’s upcoming announcement regarding a major retaliatory tariff.

Marathon Digital to Sell $2 Billion in Stock to Buy Bitcoin

Marathon Digital Holdings, one of the largest Bitcoin mining companies in the US, made headlines with its announcement of a $2 billion stock offering to increase its Bitcoin holdings.
This strategic move, detailed in recent SEC filings, shows Marathon’s aggressive approach to capitalize on the growing crypto market.
Marathon’s $2 Billion Stock Offering: Key Details
On March 30, 2025, Marathon Digital Holdings announced a $2 billion at-the-market (ATM) stock offering to fund its strategy of acquiring more Bitcoin. The company filed a Form 8-K with the SEC, outlining its plan to raise capital through the sale of shares, with the proceeds primarily aimed at increasing its Bitcoin holdings.
According to the SEC filing (Form 424B5), Marathon intends to use the funds for “general corporate purposes,” which include purchasing additional Bitcoin and supporting operational needs.
Marathon holds 46,376 BTC, making it the second-largest publicly traded company in Bitcoin ownership, behind MicroStrategy. The company’s Bitcoin holdings have grown significantly in recent years, from 13,726 BTC in early 2024 to the current figure.
“We believe we are the second largest holder of bitcoin among publicly traded companies. From time to time, we enter into forward or option contracts and/or lend bitcoin to increase yield on our Bitcoin holdings.” Marathon confirmed
This $2 billion stock offering continues Marathon’s strategy to bolster its balance sheet with Bitcoin, a move that aligns with its long-term vision of leveraging cryptocurrency as a store of value.
Marathon’s strategy mirrors that of MicroStrategy. MicroStrategy’s stock price has soared with Bitcoin’s value, providing a blueprint for companies like Marathon to follow. By increasing its Bitcoin holdings, Marathon aims to position itself as a leader in the crypto mining sector while diversifying its revenue streams beyond traditional mining operations.
Marathon Digital CEO Fred Thiel advises investing small amounts in Bitcoin monthly, citing its consistent long-term growth potential.
The issuance of new shares to raise $2 billion could dilute the ownership of existing shareholders, potentially impacting the company’s stock price (MARA). As of March 31, 2025, MARA stock has experienced volatility, trading at around $12.47 per share, down from a 52-week high of $24, according to data from Yahoo Finance.
Moreover, Marathon’s heavy reliance on Bitcoin exposes it to the cryptocurrency’s price fluctuations. If Bitcoin’s price were to decline significantly, the value of Marathon’s holdings would decrease, potentially straining its financial position.
