US judge Beth Bloom is giving Craig Wright until February 3rd to access about $9.2 billion worth of Bitcoin said to be locked in a “Tulip Trust,” an encrypted document that holds the keys to the BTC that Wright and Kleiman mined together. Both Craig and Kleimans' cryptographic signatures are required to unlock it.
According to the rulings of the court,
“In light of the Defendant’s representations that the bonded courier is scheduled to arrive in January 2020, the Court will permit the Defendant through and including February 3, 2020, to file a notice with the Court indicating whether or not this mysterious figure has appeared from the shadows and whether the Defendant now has access to the last key slice needed to unlock the encrypted file. In the event this occurs, and further if the Defendant produces his list of Bitcoin Holdings as ordered by the Magistrate Judge, then this Court will not impose any additional sanctions.”
Should the courier provide the keys to unlock the Tulip Trust, Craig Wright would have ammunition to prove that he is indeed the anonymous creator of Bitcoin.
This court ruling was part of the lawsuit filed by Ira Kleiman, the brother of Wright’s deceased Satoshi partner David Kleiman, against Wright. At the centre of the case is the alleged theft of 1.1 million BTC by Wright from the late David Kleiman.Whats your thought on this? Kindly give us a feedback.
