The emails that have recently become public through the law suit on Craig Wright by the David Kleinman estate confirm what Craig Wright has been saying since the Andrew O’Hagan interview. 

That Craig Wright was one of the main people involved in the creation of Bitcoin moreover is behind the moniker Satoshi Nakamoto.

The official proof Craig Wright publicly provided where he signed a message with the public key belonging to Satoshi was deemed fraudulent by skeptics because there was evidence that the public key could have been obtained through the block chain and thus it was considered by the general crypto community likely to have been a scam.

This being said, Craig Wright has signed the genesis block ‘unofficially’ with the private key in the presence of the most reputable figures in the world of Bitcoin i.e Andreas Antonopoulos (Public Speaker  & Computer Security Expert), Gavin Andresen (The original Lead Developer of Bitcoin), Jon Matonis (The Founder of The Bitcoin Foundation) and other trusted parties. 

One thing for certain is he has the private keys. That's proof beyond a reasonable doubt that he's been involved in Bitcoin since its origin. 

Craig Wright had planned to go ahead and transfer coins from an address associated with Satoshi when critics called the evidence he publicly provided fraudulent, however backed down sending an email to Andrew O'hagan, the Journalist involved in the story around his public outing. 
The email linked an article headlined “UK law enforcement sources hint at impending Craig Wright arrest”. 

The article suggested that the father of Bitcoin might be liable, under the Terrorism Act, for the actions of people who used Bitcoin to buy weapons. (A similar case was made against Ross Ulbricht who created The Silk Road website and is serving 3 life sentences). 

Under the link, Wright had written an explanation: “I walk from 1 billion [dollars] or I go to jail. I never wanted to be out, but if I prove it, they destroy me and my ­family. I am the source of terrorist funds as Bitcoin creator or I am a fraud to the world. At least a fraud is able to see his family. There is nothing I can do.” 

Satoshi, like Ross Ulbricht, may have ended up in Jail if he came out and definitively proved to the world he was Satoshi.

Moreover, the circumstantial evidence is demonstrably clear. 
1.	Craig Wrights mother claims that Craig was obsessed with Japanese culture growing up as a kid and had samurai swords. 
2.	The non-public emails and posts of Satoshi found on forums make use of certain words i.e Bloody, wet blanket that would only likely be used by a British/Australian/New Zealander. 
3.	An email written to David Kleinman in 2008 asking him to provide assistance editing a White-Paper he had been working on dealing with a new Electronic form of money. 
4.	Craig Wright's technical understanding of Bitcoin is second to none and he certainly has the credentials to be Satoshi.

If we simply stuck with the circumstantial evidence, it would be self-evident and at least 'highly probable' that Craig Wright is Satoshi unless one wants to buy into elaborate conspiracy theories. 
The unofficial evidence provided however, makes it clear to anyone outside of the most skeptical that Craig Wright is in fact ‘unofficially’ the Satoshi behind the Whitepaper.
