As Craig likes to say, “Welcome to Law” … of mathematics.
Hodlnaut, a vocal critic on Twitter, openly disputed Craig Wright's claims of being Satoshi Nakamoto, boldly stating, "Craig Wright is a liar and a fraud."

The community rallied behind Hodlnaut's outspoken criticism creating a clever spin on the phrase "We are all Satoshi" with "We are all Hodlonaut,"

Craig continued to threaten other Bitcoin core developers. COPA was unwilling to stand by and watch Craig sue any more companies for copyright claims and entered the fray, filing a lawsuit in the UK in April 2021 to challenge Wright's claims.
Now, the court case is underway. The schedule can be found here
