Captain Kirk aka William Shatner, is far from convinced, that<a href="https://www.cryptoknowmics.com/news/craig-wright-claims-he-knows-who-pumped-bsv"> Craig Wright</a>, the renowned computer scientist invented bitcoin. (BTC). The Star Trek series star suggested that the search for Satoshi Nakamoto should go on as he’s clearly convinced that Craig Wright is not the one. A tweet published by the Canadian read: “Ask yourself why would someone claim to be Satoshi and offer zero proof? Either put up or shut up, right?”
<h2>What Spurred William Shatner?</h2>
The discussion got ignited after a Twitter user answered Shatner’s<a href="https://twitter.com/WilliamShatner/status/1226882816350179328"> announcement</a> that he went to a cryptocurrency event by expressing his joy that “ fake Satoshi wasn’t there. “ After making it pretty apparent that he meant Craig Wright, another twitter user jumped on Wright’s defence and said that<a href="https://www.cryptoknowmics.com/news/craig-wright-could-be-real-satoshi-reveals-btcc-founder"> he</a> is indeed Satoshi and Bitcoin SV (BSV) is the real bitcoin, to which Shatner hilariously retorted.
<blockquote>"Why can’t he prove it? From what I’ve read is that some mysterious bonded courier would deliver the keys (which honestly is a scene right out of Back to the Future.) If he is, he should be able to prove it. This is like the modern-day search for Anastasia.”</blockquote>
Wright has been involved in a tug of war with the estate of David Kleiman, an American Computer scientist, and legal proceedings are still on. The two sides are at each other’s throat over Wright’s alleged misappropriation of over a million Bitcoin, that he and David mined from 2009 to 2019, together.

Craig Wright<a href="https://www.cryptoknowmics.com/news/craig-wright-claims-satoshi-nakamoto-name-was-inspired-by-adam-smith"> claims</a> to be Satoshi Nakamoto, however in November in a conversation with plaintiff, he said that he is not in a position to afford a 500,000 BTC (nearly $4.9 billion, which can help him settle the case by Kleiman estate against him, adding more substance to William Shatner’s claims, But its clearly evident that the BSV community would stay hell-bent on proving him as the main man, and BSV as the main coin.
