Sure, if you want to do that, Bitcoin is one of the very few working solutions that have been found. But do you actually want to do that? Who are you providing a service for by doing that? We know the answer: Scammers and criminals, by an

The actual situation is this: Wright does not control those bitcoins, because he is not Satoshi Nakamoto, just a conman. He tried to explain the fact that he can't control them with the nonsense story about blind trusts, which the cour
