Whats the real bitcoin cash ?
I liked bitcoin cash. And in some ways thought of it as the real bitcoin. But Is Bitcoin ABC following Satoshi vision or is Bitcoin satoshi vision following satoshi vision?
I'm actually serious, though having fun with it too. But still. I assume bitcoin ABC is pretty much bitcoin cash? what does it stand for, in a nutshell, I mean apart from onchain scaling. Why did part f the community fork off to make SV? Which is the real deal? Whats the difference in laymans terms?
I liked bitcoin cash (as I said), but now hold bitcoin cash and bitcoin sv and dont really know which to support or really what the difference is, ideologically speaking
Both are mostly supporting the original vision for bitcoin.
But since the battle for the Bitcoin name was lost, I think Mike Hearn advised the community to be brave and make drastic changes in order to severely outcompete the rest of the crypto market. And that's what the Bitcoin Cash community is doing with Avalanche, tokenization, anonymity, oracles, etc...
BSV is mostly aimed at being an exact copy of Bitcoin 0.1, hoping that hardware improvements and increased investments will make up for the sub-optimal code.
Both roadmaps deserve respect when taken out of context. But since BSV is run by scammers I wouldn't touch it, personally. Maybe a few as a risky investment (scammers are willing to pump and dump, maybe you can catch a pump) - but I don't believe it the coin's fundamentals.
Thanks for the response
That does help me paint a picture of the differences ideologically speaking. I feel like bitcoin cash, as in the ABC fork, has indeed decided to go in a new direction, and therefore I understand the reason for the split a bit better.
Just to put some random musings into the mix. The reasons I liked bitcoin cash (which were to do with supporting the original idea of bitcoin) do appear to have transferred to the SV fork, but as you say run by (possible) scammers which is slightly offputting, not to mention it is seen as lesser than bitcoin cash, which itself was lesser than bitcoin (as voted by free markets) so maybe just a shitcoin. The direction of bitcoin cash (as in ABC) is now following a path in which I already have a coin I like more (which is Dash) which is already further along in some of those aims.
I guess it all leaves me as confused as before. But at least with a bit better understanding.
