Craig wins the lawsuit against COPA. With this feather in his cap, he demands licenses from the smaller companies in crypto, mostly defi protocols infringing on his patents.

They refuse to pay.

Craig takes them to court, wins most. Over the next 10 years he continues to move up the food chain to the larger protocols and exchanges.

He wins.

Now no one wants to use crypto, Craig’s licensing fees are too high.

US government swoops in, makes all non-government sanctioned currencies illegal. 

Crypto dies.
