Hodlonaut has claimed a small, but significant victory against Craig Wright, as his libel case against the anonymous Twitter analyst has been dismissed by the High Court of Justice in the U.K. According to Hodlonaut, the legal battle will continue in Norway, as the court ruled the country had jurisdiction over the matter.
Craig Wright's defamation lawsuit against Hodlonaut is officially dismissed.
Few figures in the crypto industry have been as generous with passing out lawsuits as Craig Wright has.
Now, Wright's case against him has finally come to an end.
According to the latest update from Hodlonaut, the High Court of Justice in the U.K. has ruled that it has no jurisdiction over the case and has dismissed the proceedings.
"UK High Court handed down judgment today in the defamation case CSW filed against me. The Judge ruled UK does not have jurisdiction, and the proceedings against me there to be dismissed," Hodlonaut tweeted.
The dismissal of the case is yet another stain on Craig Wright's already terrible track record.
Apart from his ongoing saga with the estate of his former partner Dave Kleiman, Wright has taken several high-profile figures from the crypto industry to court.
Last year, Wright's case against Bitcoin Cash advocate Roger Ver, whom he sued for defamation, was also dismissed by the High Court.
Wright's battle with Hodlonaut was bloodier than most.
