An Australian computer scientist found to have falsely claimed to be the mysterious creator of the bitcoin cryptocurrency will be referred to British prosecutors for possible perjury and forgery charges, a London judge said Tuesday. Judge James Mellor, who ruled after a civil trial in March that Craig Wright was not the man behind “Satoshi Nakamoto,” the pseudonym that has masked the creator of bitcoin's identity, said he will refer evidence from the case to the Crown Prosecution Service to consider whether to bring charges. “In advancing his false claim to be Satoshi through multiple legal actions, Dr. Wright committed ‘a most serious abuse’ of the process of the courts of the U.K., Norway and the U.S.A.," Mellor said.
