Announced? Not that I can see. Article is bereft of supporting evidence.
Even if it is true, wouldn't there be a huge tax involved? Plus, whith a huge law suit pending, I don't think this would be a good move at all.
Why would a huge tax be involved? Wright is natively Australian. Currently residing in UK? I don't know anything about their taxation laws, but I do know some about that of the US. Being from common legal heritage, I might imagine (admittedly, with some ignorance) that these jurisdictions have taxation laws similar to the US. In the US, wealth itself does not require taxation thereupon. Only in executing a taxable event is a tax obligation incurred. Such as selling for fiat. Or direct purchase of items using the Bitcoin itself.
In Australia, the act of trading one cryptocurrency for another is a taxable event.

Also, the hopes that this would somehow bolster the market value of BCH is rather speculative. It may give a temporary boost, but if CSW proves that he is Satoshi in this manner, I suspect that it will cause the value of BTC and BCH to plummet in the midterm; since many people don't care for him. Even if CSW just signs a message with one of the early coinbase private keys, it would likely have a negative impact on market value.
