The Dr. Craig Steven Wright aka Satoshi Nakamoto can be followed here https://twitter.com/Dr_CSWright
His personal blog is: https://craigwright.net/

Now you know how to follow Satoshi Nakamoto the Bitcoin creator.




Shocked I wonder why Adam Back & Jameson Lopp refuses by any means to answer a very simple question asked by Satoshi Nakamoto himself: https://twitter.com/Dr_CSWright/status/1580539122753552384/

You have been warned!

Hey the bald troll. Aren't you ashamed to come and threaten people on the Internet again! You should be ashamed, BitFalse coins sucker! Go find yourself a job instead of wasting your time and that of others on the internet.

I will trade your newbie ignorance and insults for FACTS
I really like that nice BitcoinSV logo in your screenshot. I pity you because your stupidity transcends you, my god it's overwhelming. You seem to be so condescending that you don't want to make the effort to understand how bitcoin technically works. However, you may soon discover that there is a difference between production nodes and peeping nodes which do nothing but read. It will depend on how many serviceable neurons you have left. If the effort seems difficult, believe me, it is not impossible. Try again, Read the technical facts.

Guys I'm a bit concerned about how centralised bsv is getting,just look at how the node count has declined to 18, at this rate I calculate bsv will be compromised within 1 year . DUMP THIS SHITCOIN NOW BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE.
You have been warned!

Muppet, sorry for your ignorance. The question is can you learn? Note that BTC has... 12 nodes, owned by 6 groups with the majority in 2 countries and 3 nodes. You have been warned. BTC is good for trash. DYOR.

I also find it sad that BTC is truly broken since longtime in the past. That its functionalities has been publicly sabotaged and that people and companies continue to call it "bitcoin". So consumers are deceived because they* are presented with BTC that is technically stripped of the functionality that bitcoin is supposed to do. Consumers buy and hodl fraud code aka BTC while an audit of the public code directly reveals the deception! BTC really isn't Bitcoin. But social engineering enlarge that, the financial conflicts of interest are colossal! Even Wells Fargo, Union Bank, HSBC, Citybank and its subsidiaries who created Mastercard as well as NASDAQ ARBOR, AMERICAN EXPRESS, TATA, RRE VENTURES those very same ones who have vested interests in Digital Currency Group then are either being deceived or they are deceiving the world but in any case are maybe complicit in this truly massive fraud using tools... Traceable! You have to be bloody stupid or show legendary auditing incompetence. But at this high level of finance neither stupidity nor legendary incompetence can be legion in this field where data analysis is the core business. Here is more information on this subject:



And as a bonus



Here is an example: Binance and its friends at Coinbase, Kraken, COPA Crypto Open Patent Alliance and the vast majority don't give a damn about what bitcoin defines by its white paper, which supposedly for some have crypto code checked by their analytics bureaus as for example Binance and its friends Coinbase, Kraken and Co to identify a myriad of crypto channels that can directly be used to launder money for fraudsters, mafias, gangsters, corrupt politicians worldwide. For many years it was and is even possible to open accounts without KYC and inject and withdraw cryptos and FIAT. This they have done and allowed in unison. Binance has enabled this and now they are bragging to themselves and their friends about collaborating with law enforcement agencies, regulators and actively participating in the establishment of future laws. lol you think you're dreaming frankly, it amuses me a lot because not many people realize that Binance & Co. are providing data to law enforcement agencies around the world about users (who think they are masked). Blockchains do not forget anything, it is its principle of timestamping.

That is, all those who have defrauded are directly traceable, even the Tor relays eventually used are corrupted. Even Monero, Zcash, Decred, Grin, Horizen, Nucypher, Firo, Secret, DigiByte, Ergo, Verge, Beam and all the others seem are just as traceable, those who sell you the opposite are simply orienting you for fraudsters to use it knowingly, even a mixing service like the lightning network is just as traceable despite leaving open channels out of chain.

So all the fraudsters, mafias, gangsters, corrupt politicians in the world will inevitably be caught by the justice system with evidence to back it up. Traceability leads inevitably to accountability. What do you think for the "Oklahoma uncle" to call bitcoin: rat poison².  The old man is not crazy.

Why do you think these collaborating companies or other participating companies have CEO's that resign, others that disappear, others that don't even have public headquarters or even publicly known offices. No one see into or try to understand in the small block world. So that's what amuses me.

“The prevailing opinion in the media (including Gizmodo, 11 December 2015, BBC News, 2 May 2016, The Guardian, 3 May 2016 and GQ Magazine, 18 November 2016) has been, and is, that Wright is unlikely to be Satoshi Nakamoto,” reads the transcript.

https://bitcoinmagazine.com/legal/hodlonaut-wins-defamation-case-against-craig-wright

I find it sad that Craig Wright is the subject of so much malice. He was the first to publicly explain how bitcoin is Turing. He was immediately mocked by his colleagues and yet he is right. What are his colleagues doing to further develop bitcoin "for some define themselves as bitcoin researchers"? The answer is: nothing.

There are dark forces at work to discredit him in unison, using extremely elaborate social engineering tactics. As evidence of this, I came across this profile https://twitter.com/Twetchdater/with_replies which had fun cataloguing the gratuitous nastiness and stupidity created by a stream on the bitcoinsv blockchain. Look at the typography of the censuses, the words used, the waves, some profiles have exactly the same establishment, hidden behind images, very few real profiles in the end and yet. This creates a current of social engineering.

That said I understand that many people (real people) appear frustrated because Craig Wright has signed blocks in front of people in the past. And these people don't understand why he doesn't do it again. Apart from the legal exposures this creates but at the same time it seems obvious that at the moment if Craig Wright were to do it again this same process could be invalidated by the corrupted code that has become the modified source code of BTC over the years. The missing alert key feature removed from the BTC code is a perfect example. How many trojans have been implemented since Core and Blockstream have been in charge of the scam that BTC has become?

Dear friends, I am totally confused with the Bitcoin Association's press release to freeze bitcoins https://bitcoinassociation.net/statement-on-empty-block-miner/

So it looks like this is software created and used by the Bitcoin Association to move any bitcoins without going to court case for BSV, BTC, BCH and all the others? They take the law into their own hands?

I have read on https://twitter.com/Dr_CSWright/status/1582655700375048193?s=20&t=i2Q4rul21-xP5Fy6SXvU7A

- All 21 million Bitcoin are issued. I own them, but promised these under a contract agreement. These miners are engaged in theft.

Will the Bitcoin Association or Dr. Craig Wright eventually collect all of everyone's issued bitcoins for ruin all of people's or users service savings? In my case I have bitcoin in cold storage. I caught it while it was available. I plan to use these stored bitcoins as my life progresses incidentally I plan to use them for goods and against services. Am I outside of your user agreement that I never signed? Am I outlawed? Am I outlawed because i keep bitcoins in cold wallet storage for my future?

Who are the insiders of these strategies?

Why not be totally open with real public roadmap about what you plan to do in a clear statement?

People, businesses and users have the right to the truth. BSV Bitcoin Association members, Dr. Craig Wright, please answer my questions. 고마워

Bitcoin has always been a dual-stack Turing machine. It was independently proven in 2017-2018 by 3 different entities, including Microsoft. Only BSV has reactivated the entire stack of Satoshi opcodes. That's why we have continuous data on the chain. Craig Wright is Satoshi Nakamoto. Sui Generis database rights were applied. Derivative works, fine, as long as the copyright is left intact. The soft forks of BTC and BCH by way of altering the protocol, yet using Satoshi's database, are copyright fraud. Satoshi did not list Bitcoin as open source. It was a private repo on SourceForge which was copied without permission and posted on GitHub many years later. Craig owns Bitcoin's copyright and license. He also currently owns 2,141 Bitcoin related patents:

Asset seizure was possible in original Bitcoin

On July 28, 2010, users discovered that they could “steal” another’s Bitcoin by simply prepending any locked script with OP_TRUE OP_RETURN. Since the opcode OP_RETURN halts execution of script (like a return function in any programming language), it would return the previous value on the stack, OP_TRUE, which returns a true condition allowing spending of anyone’s coins, regardless of their spending conditions.

This “bug” was quickly patched by Satoshi Nakamoto, changing the functionality of OP_RETURN to immediately return false instead. However, with the understanding that Bitcoin does not operate outside of the law and miners would not process transactions with this script realistically, even if it was technically possible, we can now question if this was simply a technical oversight.


Source: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.6306

Satoshi infamously stated he believed “few nodes will be big server farms.” Thinking this through, this implies large corporations who would not allow crime to occur with impunity on their watch. Furthermore, these large corporate nodes would comply if instructed with freezing orders or asset seizure by government. That communication capability was implemented in Bitcoin early as well via the Alert system. BTC Core developers removed this functionality in 2016.

Today, many in the digital currency space believe asset seizure and freezing to be technically impossible, as the system is “decentralized” and it cannot be done due to being “simple math.” The reality is that the creator had implemented puzzle pieces for this to be possible from the early stages of the network, but due to its immaturity, the subsequent removal of those features have allowed newcomers to control the narrative on why they were removed. For example, regardless of Nakamoto’s intent, BTC Core gave their own subjective, interpretive reasons on why the Alert System should be removed:


Source: Bitcoin Wiki


Source: Bitcoin.org

The original features did not scale due to nodes being possible to run on home computers with little to no capital investment. Unlike large corporations who generate millions in revenue and must be registered legal entities, these home users cannot be trusted to follow judicial instruction, or to not steal another’s assets.

Craig Wright explains this in March 2020:


Source: MetaNet ICU Slack

Even if the OP_TRUE OP_RETURN bug was technically possible on Bitcoin today, nodes would likely reject these scripts as they would essentially be guilty of facilitating crime. Therefore, a simple re-implementation of this “bug” from the original version of Bitcoin would implement the technology possible for miners to be able to freeze and return assets despite the “experts” claiming it is impossible.

If the solution implemented is not making OP_TRUE OP_RETURN scripts possible, then another is an agreement by nodes via a notarized contract. Nodes can now receive instructions from court orders to freeze assets or re-assign coins. This implementation by the Bitcoin Association echoes Wright’s sentiments in February 2022, doubling-down on the concept that network consensus should be achieved outside the technical capabilities of the blockchain:


Source: MetaNet ICU Slack

This concept is a reminder that we live in the real world. Just because something is technically possible to achieve, does not mean it is morally right or legal. Bitcoin cannot scale to be money for the world if loss of possession results in loss of ownership, unlike any other asset in the world. It’s also worth noting that the original Bitcoin white paper states that nodes protect “ownership” and not “possessions.”

After all, Joseph Vaughn-Perling stated that this was crucial to Bitcoin’s mass adoption in May 2016:

Hello BitcoinPsycho, glad to see that you have risen in rank and become a legendary member in the time you have been in this Bitcointalk forum, in view of the colossal time spent here in your studies and sociological sharing. it may be deserved.

That said, I'm sorry that all this time you can't tell the difference between broken software aka BTC that doesn't comply with the white paper (which defines what Bitcoin is) authored by Satoshi Nakamoto, who uses LN a "third of trust" between/and/with fully functional software aka BSV, compliant with the white paper (which defines what Bitcoin is) written by Satoshi Nakamoto, which does not use a trusted third party and which is natively scaled. In all this time you haven't even noticed that the SEGWIT implementation broke what was considered Bitcoin at the time.

I'm sorry to read that you quote Lopp (unless it's you?) a social engineering specialist, blogger, manipulator at will and who doesn't even know the difference between honour, respect and humility. As for Arthur Van Pelt he is a proffesional troll who has publicly admitted to being paid and receiving donations to continue harassing The Dr Craig Wright aka #SatoshiNakamoto: see the public proof https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oHvzIbnQ_mQ&t=4685s (his actions are beyond obsession, it clearly seems to have become pathological). That's what he's been doing full time for years. This guy who has become totally disrespectful doesn't even know the difference between excess, dignity and abuse. If these people are or were your patterns of attention, learning, reading then a lot of things become clear about your actions and words right here, so be it.

In any event. You describe that Bitcoin Satoshi Vision is growing, and that's a good thing. You still don't realize that Bitcoin (BSV) can be the basis of "everything" that digitally exists. The electronic money function was "decided" by its users who had the choice of the technology's direction in 2009. As it happened. Understand that this function is only a very small part of what Bitcoin can accomplish in the service of humanity and the machine it is a convergence enabling the emergence of truth, described in the data that is stored in it. As the basis of everything, this database will only grow stronger and stronger.

For the moment people are adding what they want to it, including many things that are totally useless, like what three quarters of people do when they use a machine as a hobby, which has become totally addictive, losing (too) often the notion of reasonability.

It is very unfortunate that Bitcoin has been infiltrated from the inside for many years, as it was considered unstoppable by governments (who sometimes were not even told about deep and possibilities of Bitcoin). Over the years Bitcoin XBT (as the original ticker was given to it from its "trade" on the MtGox exchange) was modeled, in the eyes of all because for while the wise pointed to the moon the fools are watching the finger ... The same Bitcoin source code on which it was programmed to be made limited and obsolete, not scalable by/cause from self proclaimed "maintainers/manipulator" Core developers and Blockstream. For example why do you think there is no SPV deployment in the broken version? Do you even understand the function, have you even read the white paper twice?

Going back to your concern that BSV is a fork of BCH which itself is a fork of BTC which itself is a fork of XBT. So be aware that the Bitcoin protocol resides in each of these versions. Only these versions are broken except on BSV, I'll explain why without going into too much detail; the code when BTC was created was intended to increment SEGWIT, other OP_CODE (Bitcoin's harmonious function to put it simply) were outright removed year after year. making BTC dependent on trusted third parties to scale up. In the BCH implementation these same (complete) OP_CODEs are still missing, and other conformities I won't describe here. Then there was BSV, whose full functions were "cleaned up" and put back into use to restore Bitcoin's harmony. Then the Bitcoin protocol was digitally set in stone so that no one, not even Satoshi himself or others, could change the perfectly functional protocol, restored, scaled up and fully operational by nChain. [Not even John Titor will be able to do this, sorry John, but there is a drastic solution, the emerging A.I. will have to be compartmentalized on Bitcoin to avoid the extinction of the human race, simply use ๏ script ∀].

Concret fact: BTC does not exploit Bitcoin's SPVs in accordance with the white paper, why? Very simple reason BTC is broken and cannot exploit SPV at all. Doesn't that shock you? It's exactly like having a car launched at 188 miles and not having a steering wheel when approaching the long turn. The exploitation of SPVs as described by the white paper written by Satoshi Nakamoto is only in Bitcoin Satoshi Vision #BSV.

About "Satoshi Nakamoto", note that year after year an individual named Dr. Craig Steven Wright was found by two magazines and then doxxed (his identity was revealed against his will). Threats, journalists in colossal waves, the tax department, the secret service, the police, the curious, the fans. A lot to handle for one man, don't you think?

So this "individual" doctoral student, afflicted since birth with a syndrome that does not allow him to function socially as sociological codes establish their norms; he has a very different way of looking at things, it's called perspective, he becomes passionate as he experiences life, acquires specific knowledge that he puts to good use to one day create Bitcoin and continue to enhance it year after year.

About the creation of Bitcoin, haven't you noticed that it allows for many new business models? Haven't you noticed that it is a game changer, especially in industries where Google, Amazon, Facebook, Meta, Microsoft, Apple and all the BigData players feel threatened instead of embracing and carrying the technology.

As an aside my dear BitcoinPsycho, haven't you noticed that year after year the perversion of the internet has led to the generalisation and trivialisation of violence (psychological, psychic, verbal, physical ...) but above all the emergence and irradiation of capital sins such as pride, gluttony (or addiction), laziness (or acedia, spiritual neglect), lust, greed, anger and envy. They are "capital" in the sense that they are the cause, and therefore the head, of other sins; they are the motives for committing all crimes. All of this on the hegemony of money. So Bitcoin (the original aka BSV) is a very deep digital finger to this whole circus because it makes the perpetrators take responsibility for the extreme human experience, but few people see & know that. Those who are not clean, see it and tremble as their holdings could be made public instantly, they will have to face their actions, the blockchain does not forget. Mentalities need to evolve, honesty and dishonesty need to be assumed, forgiven, counted.

You mention a drop in BSV in its value, it is totally correct, forced to note that it is very regularly attacked by hands with powerful finances and manipulations.
The bots authorized on almost all exchanges are certainly not for nothing.

On this subject if you are eager to understand who does what, some conflicts of interest https://twitter.com/mrhill369/status/1553147558155153408/ can diectly help you see more clearly.

What you mentioned about a possible legal setback with BA is beyond my knowledge. What I do know, however, is that Bitcoin Assossiation is a non-profit association bringing together a panel of very competent people who are the spearhead and legitimate, honest and open guardians who strive to share knowledge, provide FREE education and training on understanding bitcoin and how to work with bitcoin through https://bitcoinsv.academy/.

Finally I would very much like to share this quote which says that "When a clown moves into a palace, he does not become a king. It is the palace that becomes a circus." I think some readers will recognize themselves in this quote, which is not necessarily negative. BTC is not Bitcoin as described in the white paper, a fact that can be verified very easily by auditing the source code which is public.

I hope that these few lines will resonate with you somewhere. May they bring you knowledge, harmony and inner peace.

Best wishes to you !

Romain.

If everyone jumped off a bridge…

I don’t watch team sports.

I don’t vote in elections.

I don’t wear flags.

For much of my life, I didn’t even go to church despite the fact that I’m a practicing Christian.

Why?

I don’t like tribalism, and I don’t get worked up about nonsense.

When the Chicago Bears would (occasionally) win a game, nothing would make me more immediately embarrassed and uncomfortable than listening to someone say “we won!”

Internal Kurt: “No. We didn’t do anything. We aren’t the Bears, none of us are football players, and most of the Bears aren’t from this city in the first place. This is simulated Napoleonic warfare with a ball for a proxy, sponsored by the U.S. Armed forces to keep people frothy enough to support the military industrial complex and encourage pride in government institutions that don’t care about us!”

I’m sorry, I’m that guy… Internally, anyways. I’ll still happily go to a Super Bowl party and genuinely enjoy my friends while keeping my mouth shut about the soft slavery of voluntary participation in the cults that love sports teams.

Similar anecdotes apply during election season and church fundraisers, so don’t worry, I am equally uncomfortable in other facets of life that normal people hold dear, too.

You can imagine my discomfort when Ørjan Salvesen Haukaas, the attorney for Magnus Granath, wrote off a culture of cyberbullying as something akin to hooliganry at the sports pub.


“Everyone bullies the autistic kid, so my client, a grade school teacher, bullies the autistic kid too, You’re Honor. It’s like hooligan stuff!” –not really a quote…



Source: Magnus Granath Twitter

Sorry, I don’t know who agrees that bullying is good as long as everyone is a bully, but I don’t like it. Remember when your parents said, “if your friend jumped off a bridge, would you do it too?”

There’s a lesson there…

And I think the lesson is individualism and the strength to stand up against general collectivism and foolish group-think, no matter how popular the foolishness is.

Bitcoin has always been about strong individualism and cooperation, in my opinion. The thing that excited me about the tech when I started studying it in 2013 was the ability to reduce business friction and shine a light in the darkness both for supply audit and for the incentive to be honest with each other in business. My belief was that a purely free-market-based currency secured by economic incentives would lead to greater cooperation and remove the need for all kinds of nonsense arbitration so we could focus on the things that matter to us outside of Bitcoin.

I never wanted Bitcoin to become a cult in and of itself, but then a mix of communists, fascists and corporate interests started to fight over the network and the name, and here we are today!

Toxicity, rabidity and curses

At some point, Bitcoin became a political football to toss around. Bitcoiners broke into tribes and decided to focus on the things they hate about each other and outsiders. This bred a culture of cyberbullying, threats of violence, doxing and generalized toxicity. In fact, small blockers have adopted “toxic” as a mantra worth aspiring to as a sort of Spartan purity test to show commitment to their cultural commune.


Source: Magnus Granath Twitter

“Have Fun Staying Poor,” “Cry Harder,” “Cope,” and other similar mantras are spewed at people who don’t immediately agree to join the cult as a way to bully them into feeling like second class citizens if they don’t homogenize into an obedient pleb.


Source: Magnus Granath Twitter

Instead of cooperation and competition, do-nothing influencers ridicule mining companies, and the pool operators are treated like second class citizens to the “plebs” as they like to call the apparatchiks of their anti-competitive, Trotskyesque permanent revolution.


Source: Magnus Granath Twitter

And so the culture is one where a rabble of bullies defines what is allowed and what is shunned, and an incredible amount of collateral damage exists in the wake of all the nonsense. Instead of the world running on Bitcoin, there are 20,000 blockchains, and an incredible amount of brain drain across the entire economy while small blockers play with racist, authoritarian ideas on twitter all day.


Source: Magnus Granath Twitter

But that’s just a backdrop…

Note my challenge from a bit before the Granath V Wright trial.


https://twitter.com/kurtwuckertjr/status/1569407570640605187

When I landed in Norway, I was excited to meet the considerable BSV community in Oslo. 21e8, CoinSurvey and a couple of new projects have significant presence there, and a few guys made plans to meet up while I was in town. On top of that, a friend I have known for a few years lives in town and was kind enough to let me stream from his beautiful balcony overlooking the city.

I was also looking forward to meeting local small blockers and hoping to connect, so I made a point of tweeting about organizing with Hodlonaut himself or any of his supporters to give them a voice to my audience or just have a private conversation if they desired it.


https://twitter.com/kurtwuckertjr/status/1555738348882432003

Unfortunately, while in Oslo, and after asking if I can come to the BTC meetup and give them the opportunity to try to “orange pill” me, I was told that I was unwelcome at a BTC meetup because while they’re sure BTC is going to change the world, someone who has a different idea might ruin their safe space.


https://twitter.com/kurtwuckertjr/status/1571171383341711366


https://twitter.com/kristiandoble/status/1571433153218367488


https://twitter.com/kristiandoble/status/1571441113205989377

So, no big deal. We had a pretty great BSV meetup in town that night anyways, and about 10 people showed up.

To summarize the trial, the position of Granath was that their crass culture is important because compromise is bad. All of his “expert” witnesses talked about the price of BTC, social consensus and the need for enforcement of purity tests. Also, “Aussie man bad.”


Source: Magnus Granath Twitter

In my final stream of coverage about the trial, however, I asked for everyone to think again about Granath’s humanity. Despite the vitriol and my strong disagreement with his ideas, his words and his behavior, my goal was to look past it and see the humanity of a man who brought his family in for support: a man who is loved by some people, and a man who deserves his basic dignity respected despite the fact that he’s unpleasant on the internet.

Of course, within an hour of the end of this stream, someone named “Jody” in the chat box of the Bitcoin Magazine stream revealed what hotel I was staying in; presumably in an attempt to intimidate me. Given the fact that all of my calls for peace and civility had been roundly rejected, I had to take my doxed hotel seriously and sleep elsewhere for the night.


Me in front of the Nobel Peace Center in Oslo.

 But that was just the beginning of the nightmare.

On my way home, I thought about how sad it was that so many people just can’t communicate with each other because we disagree about something as trivial as numbers in a database. Rather than let them upset me, I spent about three hours thinking about the people whose faces and names I could remember, and I spent time in prayer asking for the humility to examine my own presumptions and the judgments in my own heart so that I could see their humanity too. After feeling unsafe in a far-away city, I just wanted to give it to God.

When I landed at my layover, I tweeted this.


https://twitter.com/kurtwuckertjr/status/1573669299146956800

And this is where I intended to finish this article, but things have gotten out of hand since I began writing it.

About 10 minutes after landing, after a little bit of browsing my notifications, I discovered that a group of (presumably backlashing from Oslo) cyberbullies had posted photos of my wife with GPS coordinates of my home and wrote out my home address on twitter with a flurry of other personal information. I had to call my wife and let her know that she needed to call the police and get our toddler-aged children to somewhere safe.

At that time, I was 13 hours from home and very worried about my family.

Upon arrival, I raced from the airport while also receiving notification that my legal history, a bankruptcy filing, my previous home addresses, lists of various pieces of my property and a whole tranche of other personal information had also been leaked to the internet in the hopes of silencing my dissenting voice by shaming me for failing at something in my life.

It’s sad to think that having gone through a rough patch, failing and picking myself up again is an example of something that small blockers think is shameful, but they didn’t even have the presence of mind to think that perhaps I wouldn’t be ashamed of the journey that I had already survived in my life.


What does that say about their culture?

Well, for me, it confirmed that my years of pointing out their coordinated cyberbullying against big blockers was confirmed. Their response to my criticisms was to cyberbully me directly because I won’t bend the knee to their authoritarian nonsense, so in their sophomoric rage, they showed me exactly who they are, and just how much of a threat my words are to their deeply cursed culture.

The lesson from all of this is that it’s still ok to love everyone, but also not to underestimate the guile of someone who sees me as an enemy. I never thought of small blockers as enemies. I always saw them as competitors; people put in my life to give me something to compete against so I can become better at competing in the arena of ideas, business and whatever else.

But they see me as an enemy on a battlefield. Someone who needs to be extinguished. They don’t want dissent or competition of thought. They want obedience, homogeny and lockstep devotion to their cult. They want toxic brutalism and vicious enforcement of purity tests.

Never forget, in the face of authoritarianism, you always have the sovereignty to say “no.” And that’s what they hate about us.

Haste Arcade launches derby-like Monster Bombs


In September 2022, Haste Arcade launched a home-run derby-like game, Monster Bombs. Players must hit as many pitches as they can before striking out or hitting a bomb three times. Singles, Doubles, Triples and Home Runs earn 1, 3, 5 and 10 points each respectively. Upon ascending to a new level by hitting a green ball every 7 pitches, hitting the next pitch will be a Monster Bomb which earns 15 points.

To kick off Opening Week of the game, Haste hosted a tournament where the top 10 scorers across any leaderboard (even practice) had a chance to win NFT gear that can be equipped on Tank, the batter in the game. Allowing users who play the free Practice tier to compete is great as it allows new users the potential to earn NFTs without requiring them to have BSV first.



The top 3 scorers can earn the matching physical hat or jersey as well, which were sold on TakeItNFT leading up to the launch of the game. The launch has been a huge success in the first week, with over 20,000 plays by 320 unique players generating 27.8 BSV ($1,390) of volume. The community feedback has been extremely positive, with many reporting their HandCash wallets are receiving notifications non-stop.

Monster Bombs appears to be the most fun game to date in the Arcade, as well as the game with the most potential. Users can already purchase branded gear in the Marketplace from gaming and lifestyle organization Built By Gamers and equip on Tank.

This marketplace leverages the NFTY Jigs platform and APIs to create digital assets, who also created digital pet game Duro Dogs which already contains custom, branded gear designed by third party companies. Based on this model, one can foresee what is possible as other companies could create and sell their own branded jerseys, hats and shoes for Tank to wear while going yard in-game while collecting royalties on the secondary market. To enable such a model that thrives on creativity the minting fees must be near zero, as is on Bitcoin SV.

As more players play and stream the game, they simultaneously could market the branded collectibles creating a unique gaming experience. For example, a brand could reach out to a top streamer on Twitch and gift them game collectible NFTs, in exchange for streaming themselves playing Monster Bombs with the equipped gear. The possibilities are endless when combining these new types of digital (and physical) assets with micropayments.

The first week of Monster Bombs has been a great success even in the limited BSV community. With a now truly fun game in the arcade that can appeal to the masses, the onboarding problem BSV startups typically face becomes a non-issue. If users desire to play or want to obtain some cool, branded gear they will jump through any necessary hoops to do so. All it takes is for more creativity to enable a truly novel gaming experience.

In Chapter nine of the 2021 - 2022 Bitcoin Association annual report video, we look at the many initiatives held by the Association with and for government institutions and regulatory bodies during the previous year.

One of the unique aspects of the Bitcoin SV ecosystem is our efforts to actively engage and involve government offices and regulatory bodies in developing the network. The Bitcoin Association views them as valued partners who play a major role in the realisation of Satoshi Nakamoto's vision for Bitcoin.

In the previous year, the Association joined several industry associations looking to grow blockchain technology in their regions. Bitcoin Association also signed a memorandum of understanding with the Presidential Initiative for Artificial Intelligence & Computing and the Pakistan Freelancers Association to advance the education and adoption of blockchain technology in Pakistan.

Bitcoin Association initiatives with governments include:

The Tuvalu National Digital Ledger aims to integrate Tuvalu's governance and financial systems with the BSV public ledger to make it the first paperless society.

Using the VXPASS application to track Covid-19 vaccinations in Lesotho, with the support of the World Health Organisation (WHO), the US State Department, and the World Bank.

A historic week-long official visit by BSV to Sudan at the invitation and patronage of its Ministry of Telecommunication and Digital Transformation.

Bitcoin Association also organised several global conferences and meetings with government leaders to discuss adopting blockchain technology for official use.

Learn more in our annual report video on how Bitcoin SV is getting recognition from governments and regulatory bodies worldwide.

Please feel free to reach out to nChain to use any of their 2,126 blockchain patents under a license fee structure. A little bird tells me their patents will soon be enforced en masse.

Alternatively, build anything you like on top of BSV.

Sad old git section

Yes Bitcoin Satoshi Vision BSV is decentralised as you have just pointed out. ⚠️ Be careful the second link you posted her takes you to a fishing counterfeit.

This is a definite advantage for scaling, unlike BTC whose functionality has been stripped away year after year.

Seeing how BTC has been broken since SEGWIT is overwhelming.



The Blockstream & especially Core devs who quit one after the other and even those who remain, all have never understood Bitcoin after all. Result are shame & total incompetence.

But let the true souls of Bitcoiners be reassured because the real Bitcoin is SAFU, the original Bitcoin protocol is in life into #BitcoinSV. I'm very surprised that a troll like you can't tell the difference between broken and working software.

That is how it is, now BTC is technically just BitLOL and it's because of them.

The worst part is that all these companies and partners are passing off BTC as Bitcoin when it is not Bitcoin, BTC is just broken code made obsolete by your friends maybe with extraordinary conflicts of interest. Sad because these companies with big exchanges complicity are sullying the Bitcoin "name" after all.

Bitcoin and CBDC: Co-existence of private money

When I read through nChain’s recently published CBDC playbook, I stumbled on quite an interesting part. On page 8 of the document, nChain presents the basics a functioning CBDC should follow, referring to the principles laid out by the Bank of International Settlements (BIS).

The BIS published an executive paper concerning CBDCs and their foundational principles as well as core features. It states:

The intent would be to allow public and robust private money to continue to coexist, including through convertibility and interoperability.

Coexistence of private money—well, that is fascinating. Revisiting nChain’s website, it shows that their products include “Digital Cash” and “Digital Money”:



A while ago, we discussed how Bitcoin is complex cash, and the inventor of Bitcoin, Dr. Craig Wright, pointed out in an article that Bitcoin can serve as the technical foundation of a digital currency:

I see Bitcoin becoming a global commodity-based transactional system, one can be used either directly or following the issuing and creation of central bank digital currencies running on top of Bitcoin.

And for your information, Dr. Wright is Chief Scientist at nChain.


CBDCs running on Bitcoin and simultaneously competing with Bitcoin

It was Dr. Craig Wright who drew our attention to the fact that with the BSV blockchain, we can have a CBDC running on Bitcoin while at the same time being able to switch back from the CBDC to the native Bitcoin token at any time.

What does that mean? Imagine you have your CBDC wallet on the BSV blockchain. The moment you stop trusting that CBDC—may be for political or economic reasons—you exchange that CBDC amount back to the BSV satoshis.

That would be the opposite of being trapped in a state money system. It allows for an escape route, and if the purchasing power of the CBDC is on its way down due to inflation. Back to BSV, then. What if there is a sudden need for a CBDC to pay for an item? You can convert back to CBDC again.

This way, we could participate in a CBDC system without staying in it. This puts pressure on the CBDC system, by the way, and in a good sense: if the CBDC does not deliver what it promised, people would run back into the native Bitcoin tokens by a click. CBDCs would have to compete against the commodity quality of Bitcoin as cash.

That is where digital asset exchanges could fulfill their true meaning. Not gambling and speculating on price appreciations of the latest nonsense-coin, but enabling instant switching back and forth between CBDC and Bitcoin.


Risks of a CBDC minimized when Bitcoin is in play

In the CBDC playbook of nChain, the risks of a CBDC were discussed, especially “loss of privacy.” The original Bitcoin, as in the BSV blockchain, is a handy tool to enhance privacy at scale, though.

Privacy is guaranteed if Bitcoin scales—which it does on the BSV blockchain. The more transactions run on Bitcoin, the harder it gets to follow anyone’s transactions easily. Dr. Wright stated in his article “Solving Double-Spending” that:

Bitcoin balances such dichotomy by achieving privacy through scale. While every transaction retains full traceability, the cost of monitoring all users globally is prohibitive. Moreover, suppose users maintain separate keys for every transaction and firewall their identities. In that case, it becomes infeasible for people to randomly determine other people’s identities or even to link identities. The creation of filters, controls, and software can simplify the issue and allow payments that are not joint and hence do not expose the identity of the user or link transactions.

Now take all these into consideration: Bitcoin enhances privacy at scale, and at the same time, it is a commodity-based cash that allows for monetary risks of a CBDC to be mitigated. In addition, the CBDC itself can be running on Bitcoin. As nChain points out on their product site, Bitcoin is a tool to have digital cash and digital money. These are not the same.

The BIS wants private money to be in coexistence with CBDCs. However, private money is not currency notes issued by governments. Do you see where all of this could be going now?

 Cool The most amazing parts of Satoshi's invention were not the code, the cryptology or the mathematics - it was the incentive system, the understanding of the topography of the networks and, most importantly, the vision of how his system would grow.

"Satoshi's vision was like God creating the DNA of a species before even SEEING the adult version of the species!"

The point here is that sometimes a man is so far ahead of the herd in his thinking that he doesn't realize how hard it is for people to catch up without explaining everything! He's explained a little, sure, but not enough.

So a coder-only monoculture took control of a machine that required more than just a deep knowledge of coding. You may be a whiz with internal combustion engines, but that doesn't mean you know how to fly the plane it powers - or even understand how the flight controls work!"

The "Blockstream BTC" team removed the scripting language functionality (similar to removing the wings from the plane), solidified the 1MB block limit, and then began removing signatures (SEGWIT) and setting up money laundering virtual machines with "Network Lightning."
They created a rocket that could fly, but couldn't land the people driving it safely.

BSV ~~ The best kept secret in 'crypto'.


Correct.

When properly incentivized, Bitcoin (BSV) is capable of unfathomable throughput and flexibility that can dwarf Visa, MasterCard, SWIFT, ACH and every data management network on earth.

That includes AWS, Azure and anything else you can think of. The Bitcoin protocol has no block size limit, no chained transaction limit, no script limit or anything else, which means that anything you can dream up can be built on Bitcoin. But this view is extremely unpopular within the common blockchain intelligentsia for various reasons. The main reason is that in all other blockchain communities, the coin is the product, the community is the seller and the goal is the output: buy low, shill hard, sell high.

This is the business model of BTC, BCH, ADA, XRP, EOS, ZEC, TRX... Even Banano! They all exist simply to sell tokens, enrich developers, pay suits in Silicon Valley.

In contrast, Bitcoin SV (BSV) is not so much a community as an economy where the value of the network is not the token itself, but what can be created with the token! This is why BSV is so heavily criticised in the mainstream and "crypto" media.

Bitcoin BSV is NOT the product. It is a tool to create business value!

Unlike BTC which is controlled by Blockstream, or any other chain, nobody controls bitcoin.

The problem with all these other crypto-currencies is that there is not even a single problem. They're so far off the mark that they don't even have a clue what they're doing. There's only one way to make it work. There's only one global currency for everything.

There is going to be a system where you and I engage with each other. The blockchain is neutral. Anyone can be a miner. It's just a protocol that anyone can use to engage economically with anyone. That's all it is. It's a protocol. The protocol is fixed.

The protocol was set in stone - that's what Satoshi said. It's decentralised not because everybody wants to know or something stupid, it's decentralised because nobody controls the protocol. It was established on day one. There is no one in control. There's no group that decides how it's going to work. Everybody can participate. It's an economy. It is decentralised in the same way that the real world economy is decentralised.

It's a neutral protocol and everybody wins if they use the same one. Although I can't interact with you if you're on Ethereum.

BSV is basically a data management valuation platform that can overlay the internet in something (Craig) called Metanet and allow us to assign a value to all data globally.

To be able to do that, it has to have unlimited scale. The fundamental difference between BSV and all the other platforms that encompass this crypto space (BSV is not a crypto, it is a data management platform) is that BSV scales unlimitedly and none of the others can.

All the rest of the platforms as they increase that volume, they get bottlenecks and the fees per transaction explode and become unusable. BSV is unique.

Scaling is the only thing that matters. It is not only important, it is the ONLY thing that matters. Everything else that can't scale will disappear.

And this platform will penetrate everything and everywhere. And it will disappear. In ten years, everybody will be using it, (and) no one will know that it's the plumbing that runs their networks.

BSV is not only the original Bitcoin, it's the first time it's actually been used as intended. Nothing in crypto can be done on BTC, which begs the question, why do we need another 8,000 coins that no one uses? We only need one that fits the whole world.

"All the other crypto projects are trying to stop it because of the sheer scale of the invention."

Craig Wright has re-enabled the scripting language, removed script length limits and unlimited block size on BSV. This means you can upload all the data to the blockchain and write any functions you want to use now.

You can also sell the data on the blockchain to other parties and also sell the functions.

So it's a computer that can do about 10,000 operations per second at the moment, and it will release Teranode later this year, which will increase the capacity to about a million operations per second. He is aiming for a billion operations per second in the next few years.
The system, we will be able to rebuild the entire global system on BitcoinSV. Not just money, but everything. All other crypto projects are trying to stop it because of the sheer scale of the invention.

Think of it this way: each TX on BSV can open a payment channel to 4 billion sequential TXs. So if it is capable of doing a billion TX/sec (TPS), multiply each TX by 4 billion subsequent TXs, and you have an extremely fast supercomputer capable of executing trillions of transactions in parallel.

That's "scale" and that's the kind of world-class supercomputer we need to run the global economy. It makes all other crypto-currencies look absolutely ridiculous in comparison. That's what's going on. The best kept secret in 'crypto'.
