I have an informal metric to see how early we are (in the sense that btc people are always saying that we're still so early): read HN comments on anything btc-related. HN crowd is generally super smart and super aware, quite eclectic and interesting.
Sadly (or happily?) the comments wrt btc are still fucking abysmal, and that's coming from someone who has not drank all the kool-aid around how btc fixes art, culture, male pattern baldness, and body odor.
So yeah, still early.

Having a right to appeal is very different than winning an appeal. That's all this order gives him.

TBH, Faketoshi only won the right to serve foreign defendants over the issue of copyright, and thus (I guess) to include those defendants in the trial. I think those defendants were already included regarding another issue (the "theft" of Faketoshi's btc and his request to roll it back in the blockchain). So not sure if this ruling is a big deal, the defendants already need a lawyer and need to pay, not sure if this raises their costs.
On the bright side, Faketoshi made a witness statement how he is Satoshi, this could make a nice perjury, I hope this will be prosecuted.
