David Kleiman was a cybersecurity expert and forensic analyst who worked in the field of computer forensics and digital investigations. Notably, his association with Bitcoin came with his relationship with Craig Wright, the infamous candidate of possible Satoshis.Years before he became a ‘possible Satoshi,’ before he even became interested in computing and cybersecurity, David Kleiman enjoyed an illustrious career in the US military.
Together, they planned to win some contracts to develop software on behalf of Homeland Security. To do this, Kleiman set up a company called W&K Info Defense Research. The company wasin Kleiman’s name, and its official documents listed his address as the firm’s sole place of business. There is no mention of Craig Wright.
Wright also claims to have published a blog post that proves he invented Bitcoin during the time Kleiman was hospitalized. He wrote:Wright reportedly sent Kleiman an email in September 2011 in which he gave up on being Satoshi. He wrote:As David Kleiman worked from his hospital bed, he and Wright established a trust through which Kleiman would give Wright almost 1.1 million BTC that he had mined in Florida in exchange for a cash payment of $100,000.
They didn’t hear from Wright again until later in 2013, when he emailed them about a secret and mysterious project he and Kleiman worked on together. The project he referred to was, of course, Bitcoin.
