Craig Wright wins U.S. Appeals Court case over disputed billions in Bitcoin

Craig Wright, who claims to be the inventor of Bitcoin, has won a U.S. Appeals Court case over billions of dollars in disputed cryptocurrency. The court ruled that Wright was not in a legal partnership with David Kleiman when they mined bitcoin together over a decade ago. The Kleiman estate, represented by David's brother Ira, failed to show that the court relied on an erroneous legal standard or made a clear error of judgment when it struck down sanctions imposed on Wright. The ruling upholds a decision taken by a Florida jury in 2021 regarding whether the Kleiman estate had a right to half of the mined bitcoin.
