I wonder why do we need so much Bitcoin clones ... 

can't believe this sh*t still trades, disg*sting!

The Bitcoin SV blockchain is “absolutely perfect” for startups looking to build their businesses on chain, says Osmin Callis, Chief Operating Officer of the Satoshi Block Dojo.

“The fact that Bitcoin SV is a complete financial system that you can run your business on is only starting to become apparent to both enterprises and individual entrepreneurs so, yes, the future, I think, looks very bright.”

Business building is a subject that Osmin knows a lot about. In her role at the Satoshi Block Dojo, she is responsible for guiding young startups with ideas for building services and products on the BSV blockchain.

The startup accelerator, which welcomed its first cohort in January 2022, takes its team members through a highly structured 12-week mentorship and training programme. This programme can be divided into three stages, as Osmin explains to Charles Miller on this week’s episode of CoinGeek Conversations.

The first stage is all about problem validation and looking at the commercial viability of the idea that the entrepreneurs have come up with. The second is focused on the technical elements of the application or service that they intend on building and the third is all about getting them pitch ready, so they are prepared to meet the Dojo’s network of investors.

The current cohort are coming to the end of their training and have just come out of an intensive mentoring scheme, says Osmin. “They have just come through a very rigorous two weeks where each team meets over 80 mentors and they share what they’re doing, what their project is about and then they receive advice from every single one.”

Once the 12-week incubation process is complete, the startups are ready to go out into the world, hopefully with their pockets full of investor change. They are not totally alone though as the Dojo is committed to continuing to support and engage its startups until they are ready for their seed round, a process which Osmin predicts will take around 12 months.

While the incubator is the Dojo’s main focus, they also run a series of events for those who may not already be switched on to the power of the BSV blockchain. These include ideation jams, masterclasses, and university roadshows.

Osmin says that she wants these events to stimulate people to harness skills and ideas gained from whatever business or academic experience they have and transform it into “something that can result in them becoming a founder.”

For example, there is an ideation jam scheduled for the 20th of April which is focused on using Bitcoin SV to find innovative solutions for the construction industry. The event will be preceded by a workshop and a mixer to get attendees thinking about what challenges need to be tackled in the industry.

These events show the role the BSV blockchain can have in solving inefficiencies across a range of industries, and they also draw entrepreneurs into the Bitcoin SV community, with the winner of the jam invited to apply for a place on the Satoshi Block Dojo.

Osmin is determined that any hard-working entrepreneur should be able to find a way to connect with the Satoshi Block Dojo, and with investment funding recently announced from Ayre Ventures, this will only become easier. For those looking to join the next cohort of entrepreneurs, applications are currently open to join the incubator with a welcome date of April 31, 2022.

He, there is no other way for getting metavers globally up and running without full scale of micro payments on a stable underlying protocol, that is also (Satoshi) compliant.

Guess what?

Bitcoin Association for BSV announces the launch of its first Bitcoin SV Bug Bounty Programme, aimed at improving the security of the Bitcoin SV (BSV) blockchain by ensuring the soundness of its underlying protocol.

The BSV blockchain is designed to align with the original Bitcoin protocol, offering unbounded scaling, high transaction throughput and low transaction fees thanks to its lack of an artificial block size limit. The stable and reliable protocol underlying the BSV blockchain makes it the best platform to build global applications and services upon, and it is this stability and security which the new Bitcoin SV Bug Bounty Programme aims to ensure by offering rewards of up to $100,000 for the detection of vulnerabilities, paid out in BSV.

The bounty programme encompasses many aspects of the Bitcoin SV code base and spans vulnerabilities and errors across all aspects of the BSV network, including the consensus model, proof-of-work mechanism, peer-to-peer protocols and network security.

All rewards above are denominated in US dollars but will be paid in BSV. Developers who discover vulnerabilities are encouraged to include a proof-of-concept detailing the exploit to speed up the evaluation of their submission.

It should be noted that not all attack types and branches of the BSV code base are within the scope of this bounty programme, and certain vulnerabilities will only qualify for bug bounty rewards if they fulfil specific criteria.

Further information on the qualifying criteria for these vulnerabilities and the scope of the programme is available on the Bitcoin SV Bug Bounty Programme website.

Speaking on today’s announcement of the Bitcoin SV Bug Bounty Programme, Bitcoin Association Managing Director Patrick Prinz, commented:

‘The BSV blockchain continues to grow in adoption and technical capability, allowing it to serve as the most stable and efficient blockchain platform for enterprise and government applications. As the BSV ecosystem continues to evolve, it is important to ensure the security of network protocols and monitor for any vulnerabilities. Through the launch of this Bitcoin SV Bug Bounty Programme, we are encouraging developers to maintain this security by offering substantial rewards of up to $100,000 for vulnerabilities they detect. The BSV blockchain’s scalable and powerful infrastructure will revolutionise payments and create a new Internet of value, and it is crucial that it remains transparent and secure at all times.’

The fastest route to enterprise adoption is for those within the BSV ecosystem to work together, says Richard Baker, CEO of TAAL Distributed Information Technologies Inc. (CSE:TAAL | FWB:9SQ1 | OTC: TAALF).

Richard believes that mainstream adoption is close, and that the next two years will be critical in showing the world what Bitcoin SV is capable of, so long as the community sticks together.

“We have to remind ourselves that right now we need to group together as an ecosystem and really power through the next 24 months… but this is the best technology and the best utility network for the long term.”

“The fight is outside, it isn’t inside,” he stresses.

Richard believes that Bitcoin SV is following a Gartner hype cycle model and is currently approaching a ‘trough of disillusionment.’ While that may sound disconcerting, it does mean that BSV is one step closer to entering a ‘plateau of productivity’ where it will see mainstream adoption, something Richard predicts will happen around the time of the next Bitcoin halving in 2024.

On this week’s episode of CoinGeek Conversations, Richard tells Charles Miller that his priority in his new role as CEO of TAAL is commercialising the transaction processing business. To do this it is integral that as many transactions as possible are happening on the Bitcoin SV network and that those transactions are monetised.

He is particularly excited about developments in the play-to-earn gaming category which he says is “booming.” He singles out CryptoFights, a blockchain game developed by FYX Gaming and built on the BSV blockchain that is regularly recording daily transactions in the millions.

But it’s not just the gaming industry that Richard has set his sights on. He hopes that TAAL will become a major blockchain infrastructure provider for a whole range of industries.

He explains that because of the interoperability of the blockchain and the “ability to jump in and out of all these different ecosystems, these metaverses, is going to require something that looks a lot like a Metanet service provider, we will need to have robust architecture that deals with all of the movement of microtransactions and identities in and out of all those different ecosystems.”

His experience as CEO of GeoSpock, a deep-tech software technology company, will stand him in good stead to guide TAAL towards this goal. During his tenure at the Cambridge startup, his focus was on translating real world data from sources like IoT sensors and smart street lighting into data for decision-making for governments and enterprises.

He also has experience in the telecoms industry, building extensive optical fibre networks around the world in the early 1990s. This role saw him establishing infrastructure that became the backbone of the internet we know today and fostered innovation in a way nobody could have imagined, something he hopes to replicate at TAAL, with the blockchain.

Richard is confident that he will be successful in commercialising the mining company and reshaping it into a dominant player in the blockchain landscape. He predicts a “joining of forces over the next three, five, seven years of mobile operators, the big cloud compute companies and the public blockchain leaders.”

Indeed, he tells Charles that he has had six conversations just in the last week with big enterprises that are looking at public blockchains as the way they will run their businesses in the future.

I'd guess an amazing short opportunity, if he can still find an exchange that lists BSv.

Any guesses on why Ayre the ex billionaire is not even buying BSv anymore, it used to pump sometime but seems like there's no support at all now
