Dr Craig Wright is a genius and the creator of Bitcoin…or he is a narcissistic cult leader and pathological liar. Cryptocurrency writer Mark Hunter and renowned Craig Wright sceptic Arthur van Pelt explore the incredible story of Dr Wright and his attempts to sue his way to being legally recognised as Bitcoin’s creator Satoshi Nakamoto, and the riches that would come with it. Join them as they evaluate the tangled web of claims, denials, lies, and coverups that have led to Wright launching a series of legal proceedings to force the world to recognise his self-proclaimed status.

Craig Wright once said that the collapse of Bitcoin exchange MtGox in 2014 cost him one of his companies. This isn't true (he only lost $8,000-worth of bitcoin in the collapse) but tens of thousands of other people suffered huge losses when it imploded in February of that year, having lost over a million bitcoin between 2011 and 2014 due to hacks, thefts, mistakes, poor programming, and bad investments. Ultimate Catastrophe – How MtGox Lost Half a Billion Dollars and Nearly Killed Bitcoin, written by Dr Bitcoin co-creator Mark Hunter, is out on Monday November 27 and covers the rise and fall of MtGox and the scars it left in its wake. In this sample chapter, we learn about the moment when MtGox finally went down, which is just the beginning of the story, rather than the end. Ultimate Catastrophe is available on Amazon from Monday, but for the chance to win a paperback copy of the book signed by the author, click here.
