Craig Steven Wright is a liar and a fraud. It is only due to the fact that our society is so scientifically and technologically illiterate that he is still on anyone's radar in 2021.

Here are a bunch of signed messages to that affect - signed with keys he claimed to control in court:

Feel free to verify the signatures. This is stronger evidence than Faketoshi has ever provided.

Basically what you say is that if someone have keys from your car, its better proof that he owns your car, than legal documents ir court shows.

You don't receive legal documents when you mine bitcoin. You receive bitcoin locked to an address to which you presumably have the key. Good luck convincing everyone that it's your bitcoin when someone else can prove they have the key and you cannot.
How does one go about verifying the signatures on that website?
bitcoin-cli verifymessage "address" "signature" "message"
