The lawsuit is a claim for compensation of $ 5 million for damage caused to Wright’s reputation. Hodlonaut, known in the community by the launch of Lightning Torch, has denied any Wright posts in which Craig called himself the true creator of “digital gold”. He called Craig a fraud because he didn’t have a single proof of his words. After that, Hodlonaut received a warning demanding to apologize to Wright and accept the fact that he was really Satoshi Nakamoto. As threats arrived, Hodlonaut deleted all tweets and deactivated the account.
