Craig Wright might be on the run from the UK legal system and behind on his payment obligations, but he still can’t control his desire to post bizarre content to the internet.

In a new video published to YouTube, the man famous for lying about writing Bitcoin’s whitepaper and who owes massive sums of money to victims talks from inside a wardrobe about the “philosophy of law” to a small gathering of e-course students.

For over an hour, Wright talks about legal issues unrelated to Bitcoin and at the end promises to publish even more videos, saying he is working on additional content for “a Kindle or something like that.”

Earlier this year, the highest copyright court in the world ruled that Wright lied about writing Bitcoin’s whitepaper, including submitting doctored evidence and perjuring himself in court to support his false claim.

Furthermore, on July 4, the UK High Court of Justice issued a worldwide freezing order worth $1.9 million against Wright — adding to many other financial burdens.

In that order, the court noted that Wright’s whereabouts are unknown, despite his many obligations to respond to court orders. “Wright appears to have left his previous residence in Wimbledon some weeks ago now… I have not been given any further information as to his whereabouts or whether he has left the UK for good,” the judge explained.

Recently, Wright attempted to appeal that ruling in a desperate, 600-page filing. The court is reviewing and isn’t obligated to accept his appeal. The Crypto Open Patent Alliance (COPA), which prevailed in its lawsuit against Wright, is “confident that there is no proper basis for the appeal.”
