Craig Wright has dropped his appeal against Norwegian bitcoiner Hodlonaut, ending a nearly five-year-long legal battle over social media posts. Wright claimed to be the inventor of Bitcoin, but a U.K. judge ruled against him. Hodlonaut brought the case to preempt a defamation case by Wright in the U.K.

The decision to drop the case comes a month after a U.K. judge definitively ruled that Wright is not the inventor of Bitcoin .

The infamously litigious Wright appealed the court’s decision. But, according to Hodlonaut, Wright has now dropped that appeal.
