A document dated December 2008, purported to be a precursor to the Bitcoin White Paper, is alleged to be forged. Evidence indicates it is an altered version of a 2017 paper by Dr. Wright, with embedded timestamps and references inconsistent with the claimed date. COPA asserts that Dr. Wright backdated and tampered with the document to support his claim of being Satoshi Nakamoto.
