Christen Ager-Hanssen, once a firm supporter and former CEO of nChain, the driving force behind Bitcoin SV (BSV) infrastructure, has stepped down. Besides his surprising resignation, Ager-Hanssen has stirred the crypto community with grave allegations against Craig Wright, who claims to be the mastermind behind Bitcoin.

In a tweet confirming his resignation, Ager-Hanssen reported numerous grave issues to the nChain Group board, hinting at a conspiracy involving a significant shareholder to defraud nChain stakeholders.

Moreover, concerns over the real identities behind the Cayman Islands-registered DW Discovery Fund, associated with the nChain Group, were also raised. Although specifics of the conspiracy remain concealed, Calvin Ayre, a close associate of Wright, was indicated as a central figure, described by Ager-Hanssen as the “shadow director.”

‘Faketoshi’ Allegations Intensify

In addition, Ager-Hanssen, once a firm believer in Wright being the enigmatic Satoshi Nakamoto, disclosed finding compelling evidence pointing at Wright’s manipulation of documents to mislead the court. This shift in belief has sent shockwaves across the BSV community and beyond.

The ex-CEO teased a whistleblower report, “The Fairway Brief,” a likely reference to the thriller “The Pelican Brief.” Now, Ager-Hanssen stands convinced that Wright is NOT Satoshi, foretelling a bleak legal future for the self-proclaimed Bitcoin creator.

Wright’s Association with nChain in Doubt

The situation escalated when Craig Wright’s designation as the “Chief Scientist” disappeared from the nChain website after Ager-Hanssen’s outburst, although the board’s intentions remain unclear. Wright asserts a continued advisory role for nChain and other Bitcoin entities. However, the credibility of his statements is now under serious scrutiny.

With Ager-Hanssen now gone from nChain and Wright’s claims shrouded in Doubt, the BSV sphere is witnessing an upheaval. The feud has propelled the term “Faketoshi” into the limelight once again, amplifying skepticism around Wright’s claims of being Satoshi. It’s a dramatic unfolding that has left the cryptocurrency community in anticipation of the promised revelations by Ager-Hanssen.
