The Self-Proclaimed Satoshi Nakamoto Attacks Bitcoin Governance Model

Craig Wright, the Australian who long claimed to be Satoshi Nakamoto, resurfaced with a sharp critique of Bitcoin current governance.

His argument centers on a single idea: the base protocol should never change, and anyone who can change it holds too much power.

Why Wright Wants Bitcoin Rules Permanently Fixed

Protocol immutability means the fundamental rules of a blockchain remain permanently fixed, with no upgrades altering how the system works. Wright argues that the principle defines genuine decentralization.

In a series of posts on X, the self-proclaimed Satoshi targeted what he described as control by a small circle of developers. Bitcoin, he wrote, was designed as the opposite of a system in which a group can rewrite the rules and isolate dissenters.
