An anonymous Bitcoin holder has filed a lawsuit in a New York court seeking to dismiss a claim against the ownership of a "dormant Bitcoin wallet."

According to Odaily, the New York State Supreme Court has seen a key defense in a lawsuit concerning ownership of 39,069 long-dormant Bitcoin addresses. An anonymous defendant who controls the dormant wallets in question has formally filed an application with the court requesting that the lawsuit be dismissed outright. The anonymous holder argued that a Bitcoin address is merely a string of data characters on the blockchain, not a legally recognized entity, and therefore not qualified to be sued. Furthermore, industry experts pointed out a critical technical shortcoming: even if the court ultimately rules in favor of the plaintiff, without the corresponding private key, the plaintiff cannot transfer or control these Bitcoin assets on the blockchain, rendering the judgment unenforceable. The plaintiff in this lawsuit is attempting to apply New York lost and found regulations, claiming that tens of thousands of long-dormant BTC are abandoned assets, intending to acquire full ownership through legal means.
