Apparently he “stomped on” the hard drive containing the keys giving him access to Satoshi’s wallet.
As you do when you have sole control of a digital wallet giving you access to tens of billions of dollars worth of cryptocurrency. Seriously, who here hasn’t sent billions of dollars of notional value up in smoke with a round of vigorous stomping? I know I have.

Wright may not be Satoshi but he’s definitely a cryptocurrency guy.

He is Australian. Sounds like something they would do.

Presumably this also involves the dog eating Satoshi’s PGP keys.
