Christen Ager-Hanssen, former CEO of blockchain development company nChain, left the company following a disagreement with the board of directors.
Making a shocking statement, Ager-Hanssen publicly stated that he no longer believes that nChain's Chief Designer, Craig Wright, is Satoshi Nakamoto, the alleged creator of Bitcoin.
Craig Wright, a well-known person in the cryptocurrency world, claims that he is Satoshi Nakamoto, the founder of Bitcoin, and has also released a cryptocurrency called Bitcoin Satoshi's Vision (BSV), which he claims is the original BTC.
Ager-Hanssen's departure followed his discovery of what he described as “a fraudulent conspiracy orchestrated by a significant shareholder to defraud nChain shareholders.”
He expressed concerns about the company's actual shareholder and the people behind the Cayman-registered DW Discovery fund. In a post on social media platform X, Ager-Hanssen shared a screenshot of a report that allegedly showed evidence of Wright's browser history. This evidence contradicts Wright's long-standing claim that he is Satoshi Nakamoto.
Ager-Hanssen made the following statement:
“I can confirm that I am stepping down as Group CEO of nChainGlobal with immediate effect after reporting some serious issues to the nChain Group board… I have also reported that I have found compelling evidence that Dr Craig Wright manipulated documents in an attempt to deceive the court that he was Satoshi. Today, Dr. .I am convinced that Craig Wright is NOT Satoshi and will lose all legal battles.”
Ager-Hanssen also noted that the board of directors, Dr. He added that his job had become unsustainable due to his failure to take action on his recommendations, which included the sacking of Craig Wright.
