The inventor of Bitcoin, Craight Wright or known by alias Satoshi Nakamoto, was charged $ 10 billion for allegedly stealing bitcoin belonging to his late business associate, David Kleiman.

The charges were filed by the Kleiman family through a court in Florida. Through demanding documents, the Kleiman family mentioned that Wright falsified documents regarding W & K Info Defense Research LLC's proprietary assets to its business associates.

In a document allegedly forged, Wright was granted the right of Kleiman's bitcoin of 1.1 million Bitcoin, or 10 billion dollars (Rp 142.8 trillion).

As proof, Kleiman's brother Ira provided a copy of the e-mail he sent in 2013. In the letter, Wright admits that he does hold some of Kleiman's coins.

Dave mentioned if you are trusted to hold 1 million pieces of bitcoin. Of these, 300,000 of them belong to Dave, while the other 700,000 belong to you. That's right, "Ira wrote in the e-mail.

"Less is that much, but has not been reduced to the needs of the company," Wright replied to e-mail Ira.

To note, the price of 1 piece of bitcoin when this news aired is the equivalent of 10,564 US dollars (Rp 145 million).

Based on information obtained from TechSpot, Friday (2/3/2018), Wright has been summoned to court on February 15 last. But until now he has not been sentenced to anything.

For additional information, W & K nfo Defense Research LLC is a blockchain company pioneered by Wright and Kleiman. Through the company, they are involved with each other in bitcoin mining.

According to information, Wright and Kleiman managed to mine 550,000 and 1.1 million bitcoins. But in 2013, Klein died last breath due to complications of the disease.

Responding to Ira's demands, a number of bitcoin observers spoke up. Some of them call the Kleiman family's demands unfounded. According to them, Wright never has many digital currencies even though he himself created.

Given that Wright is one of the central figures in the creation of crypto currency, this case could have had a major impact on other blockchain companies. Moreover, if the court decides if Wright is proven guilty.
