Crypto Lawyer Sues US Authorities for Uncovering Satoshi Nakamoto

Odaily Planet Daily News: Well-known crypto lawyer James Murphy (@MetaLawMan) has filed a lawsuit against the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). A lawsuit has been filed against the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) under the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). The legal action filed on April 7 aims to reveal the identity information of the mysterious founder of Bitcoin, Satoshi Nakamoto, that the U.S. government may have. Murphy said the lawsuit was caused by a speech at a financial intelligence conference in 2019. At the meeting, a DHS official claimed that he had identified Satoshi Nakamoto and interviewed him in California, where three other Bitcoin developers were present. Murphy now wants to obtain relevant internal documents, emails and notes from the Department of Homeland Security to verify whether the interview was true. He believes that if the interview really took place, there must be a written record, and this lawsuit is intended to make these records public. At the same time, Murphy called on Christy Noem, Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security, to voluntarily disclose information. If the Department of Homeland Security refuses, he said he will insist on the lawsuit until the truth comes out.
