That's the next part of this case. The judge still has to decide who's going to have to pay these costs...

It's fucked that one can be found guilty for defamation even though the statement was false (i.e. he isn't satoshi). The UK is effectively saying that you can proclaim to be anyone you want and if anyone challenges that, it's defamation.
Nice to see that he only needs to pay Craig 5000 sats though.

I believe this was a purposeful decision by the judge.
A “win” for £1 ensures that CSW can’t appeal, and continue to drag Peter through the courts which would bring him further financial hardship.
This ends the case and now the ball is in Peter’s court - as he could potentially counter-sue to recoup his legal costs if he desired.

This fits in with the idea that someone can choose their personal pronouns and it's an offense to get them wrong.

Perhaps one could claim to be the real Craig S. Wright and sue him for defaming oneself through years spent making the absurd claim of being Satoshi Nakamoto.

What is sad is the pressure he can put lot of pressure and stress on good people. Calvin Ayre is an old rich fool I don't know if he's persuaded by wright lies.

This is the greatest thing to happen today. All of CSW's bullshit is only worth 1£.
I hope Peter send him his 1£ via a bitcoin payment to one of Satoshi's known addresses.
