#Bitcoin Historian Kurt Wuckert Jr visits the Messy Times studios fresh off his trip to Norway. He was visiting the oil-rich Scandinavian paradise to report on the defamation case against a Norwegian schoolteacher who likes to spend his time online hurling adolescent insults at people he has taken a dislike to, in this case, the Chief Scientist of nChain, Craig Wright.
So far as I care to bother to discern, this guy Magnus Granath goes by the online moniker HODLONAUT and has spent years sending public and private messages harassing Mr Wright because Granath - the juvenile keyboard warrior trying to hide behind online anonymity - somehow had his ire raised by Mr Wright's authorship of the original Bitcoin White Paper.
