Blockchain 2042: After The Deep Fake, Prepare Yourself For The Deep True

I propose a forward-looking exercise on the society of the coming decades, marked by the 4th industrial revolution. Taking as a starting point the "regime of the trace" proposed by Alain Damasio, here is an incursion into the era of the "Deep Fake" and the one that will follow it, the era of the "Deep True".

The 4th industrial revolution defined by the German economist Klaus Schwab has already begun. Its beginnings almost coincide with those of the new millennium, and are around the year 2000. And although the term was indeed first used by Schwab in 2015 and then in the book of the same name published in 2016, the vision of a major shift in the role of technology in the structure and functioning of modern society had already been clearly defined in February 2000 in the National Intelligence Council's report entitled "Global Trends 2015: A Dialogue About the Future With Non-government Experts" and I invite you to read the latest iteration dated January 2017 : "Paradox of Progress".

This vision is based on the application of the digital revolution to the digital, physical and biological worlds, with the deployment of a multitude of new tools with fascinating potential: blockchain and cryptoassets, 3D printing, artificial intelligence, robotics and autonomous self-piloted systems, nano-technologies and super-batteries, quantum computers, biotech based on embryonic research, stem cells and DNA manipulation, and connected "intelligent" objects to name but a few. It must be understood that we are talking here about a disruption of human society through technological advances far superior to what the control of the atom's fission brought in its time. And the example taken here is not insignificant, because the main danger facing us today is the same as then: that this fascinating technology fall into indelicate hands....

And that's obviously what's happening.

Discussed in my previous article, the Deep Fake era is the first unhealthy emanation of the technological advances characterizing the 4th industrial revolution. Fake news is only the tip of the iceberg: the ability of machines (hardware and software) to produce perfectly realistic artifacts, and probably even "more real than life" will be fully operational in just a few years. It will then become possible, and easy, to falsify almost anything, whether physical or intangible. We will then wait for the stage where counterfeiting will be widespread and largely dominant in all sectors: medical, spare parts, but also reports, testimonies, recordings and telephone conversations, contracts...

Our grandchildren's generation of printers, coupled with the "Super AliExpress" which will put the most sophisticated service providers at your fingertips and 24 hours of delivery, will allow you to have just about anything made, including a copy of anything... The currency will then be completely dematerialized, and our grandchildren will laugh when they hear us tell them that it was our "before" practice to exchange printed pieces of paper for jewellery, cars, or entertainment tickets. The dollar will have lost its egemony, but that will not matter: the financial sphere will have mutated and adopted the new SFM (Super Fractionned Money) paradigm, characterized by the simultaneous cohabitation of several thousand different currencies, most of them crypto. There will always be state currencies, but they will not be the most used by the general public: each retail player of respectable size will promote its own cryptocurrency.

In this disturbing context, we will then be led to question the concept of reality and truth as we define them today. As a logical reaction and to allow "seeing clearly", the system will put in place permanent and increasingly sophisticated (and painful) controls, regardless of the type of social interaction (trade, finance, politics...). The general public will systematically doubt in the first instance before anything presented to it, suspicion becoming the norm, and fuelling conspiracy theories and other anti-system movements. Governments will try to react by over-legislating, and we will then slide into the era of the "Deep True": "certified true" labels will appear, which will be based on Blockchain technology and its comprehensive and forgery-proof public registry structure. The "truth" can emerge again, because "everything" will be stored immutably on a dedicated Blockchain. Everything will be measured, evaluated, and recorded in a Blockchain: no more need for tickets anywhere, speed cameras, speed cameras, tax controls, paternity tests... We will be tracked, recorded, geolocated and filmed continuously, and this data will be analyzed to generate automated alerts, warnings, and convictions. Data that will also be re-processed thanks to Artificial Intelligence and the results obtained resold to retail players to enable them to be even more efficient in their fierce desire to make us consume, again and again.

Retail players who will also use the power of the Blockchain and connected objects to almost completely eradicate counterfeiting: you will be filmed in all public transport locations, and the images analysed thanks to the I.A. to identify the models of clothing, bags, accessories, watches you wear. These data will be cross-referenced with those of your "Individual Blockchain" in order to verify that there is indeed a purchase trace for each item, otherwise you will be intercepted for further explanations or directly debited with the corresponding sum during a preliminary investigation...

But full traceability will not only have its downsides. Food scandals will become marginal, because everything will be perfectly measured and documented: genotype and paternity of each animal over several generations, respect for the cold chain, storage and delivery times, etc. Similarly in the pharmaceutical industry and for medical reimbursements: from the extraction of basic materials and components to final packaging, to the sale in pharmacy, everything will be precisely recorded in a dedicated Blockchain, eliminating the possibility of spreading counterfeit medicines on the market.

The fake news and other Deep Fake that have disrupted several elections in democratic countries and triggered many false scandals will be a bad memory: the slightest information will be validated before release against the facts stored in the corresponding Blockchain. The "not fake" label will be automatically assigned to content verified by an Open-Source algorithm managed by a decentralized structure.

Two small details as a corollary of this entertaining divagation:

- This scenario, plausible or not, is obviously not global. It would only concern the part of the company that could finance the establishment and maintenance of such an infrastructure. The 4th Industrial Revolution will undoubtedly be the most fascinating of all in many respects, but it will lead to a radical social fracture that risks literally splitting the world in two, and for good this time, by mercilessly excluding those "who do not have the means"...

- The concept of Blockchain applied to all sectors of society would revolutionize the world as we know it today, as we have brushed it along these lines. But it would have a huge cost, and still faces two physical limitations: the amount of data involved, and the energy required to allow its secure storage and instant access.

Any blockchain that is not the bitcoin blockchain itself is a very big scam to me and I just see it as a way people are trying to make free money all in the name of achieving satoshi vision of blockchain, bitcoin cash was the first coin that came up with the idea that bitcoin is no longer following satoshi vision since segwit was going to be implemented then, but why is bitcoin cash now, nowhere to be found because it was just a means to get free money.

Other than contributing to total crypto space's marketcap, I am not seeing anything positive with these things to crypto community. Due to continuous pumping and dumping, like XRP BCH is trying to find a good place among investors and traders but not sure how much successful it is in terms of having continuous institutional investors.

What do you mean, "Bitcoin Cash is nowhere to be found"? And it wasn't the first to realize that BTC was forced/tricked into small blocks.

As far as I'm concerned, Bitcoin is no longer the protocol introduced by Satoshi in 2009. And it's not the original Bitcoin.

I d say that Bitcoin is still Bitcoin, but it has different instances or implementations. With these there came up tickers after a while of stability and use, since ppl wanted to start trading.

BTC is the first ticker - protocol instance, and with the Segwit fork it has not much to do any more with the original electronic cash based on a chain of signatures.

BCH was first try to stay close to Bitcoin, but got CTORed away.

BSV really WANTS to stay Bitcoin 's purest essence, so that's my fav.

CoinGeek Toronto Conference 2019 Main Day highlights >>> https://youtu.be/7VtJbckp-dY

Bigger blocks, massive scaling, and no limits. That was the theme of the CoinGeek Conference Toronto 2019, where all Bitcoin professionals from around the world gathered to talk not only about Bitcoin SV (BSV) developments, but also why massive on-chain scaling is essential for the ecosystem to move forward.

The main conference showcased high-caliber speeches and panel discussions—the hallmark of CoinGeek events. Special features include finalist presentations for the Bitcoin Association’s first BSV Hackathon, and a special intimate conversation with nChain Chief Scientist Dr. Craig S. Wright about the beginnings of Bitcoin.

Ryan X. Charles, CEO of Money Button, discussed “Digital Storage and Digital Rights Management on the BSV Blockchain with Money Button.” He tells us what it actually means to use massive on-chain scaling in a real business.

“Individual companies can often need terabyte size blocks just by themselves depending on what they do, so we need to scale massively because we’re going to put more than just one company—we’re going to put an entire industry, we’re also going to put the entire world’s economy on this,” Charles said. “The reason why that matter is it’s not even just payments. You actually can put real data on the blockchain too, and so the sizes start getting very, very large. If you need properties like, I really want this contract to be encrypted but also stored permanently and immutably so that no one can alter it after the fact, you put the actual contract on the blockchain. That takes data.”

Indie game developer Kronoverse https://coingeek.com/bitcoin-sv-powered-kronoverse-set-to-revolutionize-gaming-industry/ built its platform for the BSV blockchain after seeing how the network is making unlimited scaling a unique reality. David Case, chief architect of Kronoverse, explains why BSV was their only choice:

“Well really, BSV is kind of like our only choice… it solves all the problems that we’ve been [having], and we’ve spent a year and half in R&D, [actually] over a year trying to just explore everything that’s out there in the blockchain space… Every step of the way, we had to solve all sorts of other problems, build all sorts of other toolings, and the scale and just being able to rely on the commodity blockchain that we don’t have to worry about how to solve the consensus aspect but yet having the scaling and the cheap transactions, just… it’s our only choice.”

For his presentation, Bitstocks CEO Michael Hudson talked about “Banking on BSV,” giving the audience an overview of what they can expect from Bitstocks’ groundbreaking Bitcoin banking ecosystem, Gravity.

“What we are launching first is the ability of the investment service, so the ability to hold Bitcoin [Core], Bitcoin Cash as well as obviously Bitcoin SV. The logic behind that is to enable people who might have a different view as what Bitcoin really is and while they’re going on their inevitable journey of discovery they have access to then convert their assets into SV if they wish to make that decision to then interact with the wider Gravity ecosystem, so that will be the current accounts, the debit cards, the loan systems, Gravity Pro which eventually is going to be some other cool things, I’m not going to announce right now, but they’re all going to be exclusively on Bitcoin SV. I don’t want to ostracize the Bitcoin Core community or the Bitcoin Cash community because they’ve been essentially miss-sold what Bitcoin is. We want to help support them and provide the infrastructure if they so wish to then have a much better experience that’s more in line with what we believe Bitcoin to be, which is Bitcoin SV,” Hudson tells us.

One of the highlights of CoinGeek Toronto scaling conference is a fireside chat with Founding President of the Bitcoin Association Jimmy Nguyen and Dr. Craig Wright, the person behind the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto and creator of Bitcoin. The two’s wide ranging discussion included topics like the beginning of Bitcoin—Nguyen opened the fireside by asking Wright, “Did you create Bitcoin?”—as well as the destiny that Bitcoin was created to achieve, and how Bitcoin SV (BSV) is fulfilling the destiny of Satoshi Vision.

In an interview with CoinGeek, Wright shared how it feels to see people building and moving the future forward for something he created. He said, “It’s good to see the energy and the vibrancy of the place at the moment. It’s wonderful.”

Wright also has this to say about Bitcoin and its future: “Bitcoin is an immutable evidence trail. It is a single global ledger. Once we roll it out, we’re going to make fraud expensive, fraud difficult. We’re going to make it so that people can actually trust money, trust negotiating with people, and because there’s no way to get away with something bad, there’s a record kept of everything, that’s what we’re seeking.”

Paymail launches, makes Bitcoin as easy as email

Increasing Bitcoin adoption means simplifying it for the average user, and putting it into terms that anyone can understand. That’s why Ryan X. Charles, founder of Money Button, has announced Paymail, a new identity protocol for Bitcoin SV (BSV).

Paymail seeks to do for Bitcoin what email did for the internet. Instead of traditional Bitcoin addresses, it introduces “human-readable names that look exactly the same as email addresses.” This is done with the intention that users shouldn’t have to interact with “long, random, unfamiliar character strings like Bitcoin addresses.”

The initiative, developed collaboratively with top BSV developers, including nChain, Money Button, Handcash, Centbee, and Electrum SV, will benefit the entire Bitcoin SV ecosystem. It emerged from a workshop of Bitcoin Association, the leading global organization for Bitcoin business, which supports BSV. The Paymail protocol is open for free use with any application on the BSV blockchain, and is fully compatible with email.

As it works with addresses that look exactly like email, it’s ready for adoption with existing email domains. Charles wrote in the announcement:

“If Google wishes to add support for Paymail, they will be able to roll out support seamlessly for all Gmail users without interrupting service or changing any of their email infrastructure. Every Gmail user will be able to send and receive Bitcoin, and perform other advanced applications, directly from Gmail, while still being able to use Gmail as an email service (and an identity service) in the same way they do currently.”

If Google were to elect to do that, that opens up potential BSV adoption to 1.5 billion active Gmail users. Even if one of the smaller email providers, like Yahoo (200+ million active users) or Outlook.com (400 million active users,) it would increase the number of potential Bitcoin users by an order of magnitude. As of December 2018, it was estimated that with all altcoins combined, there was only 35 million total verified cryptocurrency users.

This was made possible by creating a new extension called Simplified Payment Protocol, which goes back to the original Bitcoin code for pay-to-ip. By using that original code, it allows a simplified wallet software that skips unnecessary network nodes and is delivered directly to recipients, with miners notified afterward.

Paymail also allows sharing public keys for digital signatures and encryption. This creates a data marketplace, where users can follow creators they appreciate and purchase their material.

With the announcement, Money Button has already fully implemented Paymail and launched the service. Paymail is interoperable with the Electrum SV and HandCash wallets.

To protect against bots sweeping in and grabbing all the best paymail usernames, getting your address will cost $1.00. If you can prove the name you want is undeniably yours with your social media presence, you can get a big discount and buy it for $0.10. At either price, getting your name is a bargain, and the pricing system will help make sure bad actors don’t ruin the system before it can get going.

Bitcoin Association Founding President Jimmy Nguyen commented: “Make it simple and they will come. Money Button and other Bitcoin Association members understand that, and we congratulate them for collaborating to create this outstanding achievement in simplicity. Paymail is another example of how BSV is the Bitcoin ecosystem most focused on global adoption by users and businesses.”

Toronto: The past, present and future of Bitcoin

You know you’ve been to a good conference when you leave with loads of interesting bits of information, combined with a better sense of the big picture. On both counts, CoinGeek Toronto was a resounding success. But it’s another measure that I’d say was even more important: there was a palpable feeling of confidence in the Bitcoin SV (BSV) ecosystem and where it’s heading.

At the last CoinGeek conference, in London in November, Jimmy Nguyen, president of the Bitcoin Association had stood on stage to say it was time for Bitcoin to “grow up and professionalise”. In Toronto, although he hadn’t entirely dropped his favourite mantra, he hardly needed it any more. The evidence was all around him.

To pick a couple of examples, almost at random: Cole Diamond, co-founder of CoinSquare, a Toronto startup, talked about using Bitcoin to bring the entire financial services industry onto one platform. The peer to peer lending it enables will reduce the cost of borrowing and mortgages. In case there was any doubt, at the end of his presentation, Cole remarked that “everybody in this room is on the right track”.

Cole was just one of several speakers who talked about how the Bitcoin world and the financial establishment were going to be able to work together productively.

Then there were the finalists of the BSV Hackathon competition, who were equally confident about the future. Attila from TonicPow explained that a “Tonic” is a peer to peer online ad. Why not use blockchain technology to connect website owners directly with those who want to pay them to advertise on their site? And Hayden Donnelly’s Polyglot product is designed to help people use the Metanet more easily. His aim is “to open up the Metanet for entry-level developers and everyday people.” (You’ll know he’s succeeded when Microsoft’s spell check stops putting a red line underneath every time you write “Metanet”.)

If the Hackathon finalists were the up and coming generation, established BSV entrepreneurs like Jack Liu, Alex Agut and Rafael Seibane from HandCash and Ryan X. Charles of Moneybutton weren’t resting on their laurels. Jack’s new RelayX is integrating BSV and fiat payment platforms, Handcash is looking at ways to offer “Bitcoin as a service” and Moneybutton is powering ahead with new products such as Paymail, with a staff of only three: Ryan in Silicon Valley, with two colleagues in Argentina.

So much for the present and the future – what about the past? Well that was amply covered in Jimmy Nguyen’s interview with Dr. Craig Wright. It was a revealing and sometimes emotional session, going back to the origins of Bitcoin and Craig’s work as Satoshi Nakamoto, its pseudonymous creator. Craig said he’d started thinking about electronic money as far back as the 1990s, with an early idea for a paid network that he freely admits was “a failed, totally stupid concept”.

The work that led to the Bitcoin White Paper began in earnest around 2005 when he was studying at Newcastle University in New South Wales. On the question of whether he worked alone or had help, Craig replied that “everyone has help”. He mentioned Hal Finney and Dave Kleiman (“my best friend for a long time”) but to Jimmy’s direct “did you write the White Paper?” Craig answered definitively: “yes”.

“Who managed Satoshi’s email box?,” Jimmy enquired. “Primarily me,” Craig said. And it was “generally me” who answered posts on message boards, although it was occasionally Dave Kleiman.

On the first day that Bitcoin was released, it was managed on 69 computers, Craig said, some in his house, and some on a farm, a three hour drive away. When Microsoft decided to update its software in that first week, it messed up the whole Bitcoin system and Craig had to make numerous three hour drives between the house and the farm to sort things out.

Craig ended with a moving tribute to his wife and family for putting up with him, which more than one person told me afterwards had left them in tears. “I’m better than I was,” he said, but “I’ll never be nice.”

Craig’s final message was one which felt appropriate to end the whole conference. Despite the complex and technical nature of Bitcoin, Craig is clear that the point of it is to allow people to deal with people. This is not a technology that is designed to take over and dominate our lives: “I don’t want a world where we have people isolated by machines”.

It was an ambition that many of the entrepreneurs who’d spoken earlier had echoed in practical terms: we need to work to get the technology out of people’s way; the goal is to make the world and our transactions with each other, simpler, more accountable and frictionless. Craig thanked everyone for what they were doing in taking forward what he’d started. The audience rose to give him warm, appreciative thanks – both for the openness of his interview with Jimmy and, it felt, for Bitcoin itself.

Here is a testimony to help you understand the ins and outs. Everyone will have their own idea and may be able to understand.

A bit about Dr. Craig Wright

I first communicated with Dr. Wright in a series of interviews in early 2016… at a time shortly after him being outed, and he was still at this point, very much out of the public eye. However, former lead Bitcoin Core developer Gavin Andresen had already recently stated that he witnessed Craig sign with keys that only Satoshi Nakamoto could have possessed. I knew who I may have been dealing with…

I was cautioned prior to the interview… that Craig can be a little intense – (I don’t quite recall the word used but I think ‘intense’ is relevant enough).

Certainly at that time the VAST majority of Bitcoiners did not believe that Craig was the man behind, what in my opinion is, the greatest invention since the internet itself, and perhaps even bigger. But I kept a very open mind. He rejected putting out cryptographic evidence at a time where we told the world that he was going to, and instead posted the Satre piece… choosing to reject the Satoshi title, which in retrospect he recently viewed as a bad decision. But the spectre of Satoshi loomed close and as time went on, it became more difficult to separate Craig from the Satoshi saga, for reasons right or wrong.

When our interviews began, all I had known about Craig was that he at one point claimed to be Satoshi (but then seemingly retracted), and that this man was under incessant attacks.

I had no idea what I was getting myself into…

A little about me: I have a full time job working as a software engineer on a multi-billion dollar infrastructure project, and keep a number of Bitcoin related projects going on the side. I never ever considered myself a journalist. I somehow became a bit of a voice (one of many) for the big blocker party (to the newcomers, that basically means we wanted to scale Bitcoin), and my passion to see Bitcoin reach its potential lead me to write a series of pieces in an attempt to get some minds thinking rationally, to see Bitcoin succeed. It was most definitely under threat from being choked to death with an artificial limit on transactional throughput.

This passion led me to Dr. Wright. I didn’t even know his stance on the blocksize debate at this point… But I did know that Satoshi ‘did’ want to scale Bitcoin. It was one of my first questions infact to which he immediately responded with “we are going to make sure Bitcoin scales”. That was 3 years ago… and here we are Bitcoin SV is now looking at 2GB blocks this year. In 2016, the idea of 2GB blocks was inconceivable… not within a 3 year period…

After publishing articles based on a series of interviews, I suddenly found myself drowning in attacks. Death threats to my mailbox, countless anonymous accounts attempting to belittle, mock and generally attempting to show that my own voice and judgement were amiss. Much of the social media trolling was an attempt to make my voice as irrelevant as possible. And believe me it’s not without effect. You’d be surprised how many people read only half an article, only to quickly check the comments section to assess public opinion. And perceived public opinion does indeed sway things…

This has been Gregory Maxwell’s (former Blockstream CTO dedicated to making life hell for Craig and big blockers) modus operandi. There’s strong evidence now that ties a number of online accounts including the infamous “Contrarian” to Maxwell. These accounts have been dedicated to undertaking an unprecedented, 24/7, round-the-clock social engineering effort in skewing the public perception of Dr. Wright to incredible consequence.

In fact, much of the seeds sown by ‘Contrarian’ directly played a significant role in the schism in the Bitcoin Cash community which then lead to the birth of Bitcoin SV. In perhaps one of the most ironic turn of events, kicking Dr. Wright out of BCH ended up making Dr. Wright’s position 100 times more powerful. We’ll get back to this point later.

In our interviews, Craig’s willingness to scale Bitcoin immediately brought my own guard down. This man wants to see Bitcoin succeed like no other… and it was in one of the earliest memos where he actually mentioned that Bitcoin was Turing complete. This was a key point that made me prod further. Eventually he provided some information pertaining to a fundamental key decision in Bitcoin’s design which enabled Bitcoin to be Turing complete in this way. It was admittedly a revelation. But the revelations kept coming.. one after the other… For example, when everyone thought Bitcoin topology was a mesh, as noted in the “Mastering Bitcoin” book, Craig said it was a small world network, rightfully.

This man had intimate understanding of the design of the system, undoubtedly. I asked about his academic record (which was also under attack), and he provided copies of his entire academic record, which myself and others then followed up to confirm. The impressive academic record, was real. To date now, the man has 17 degrees and currently studying his 3rd doctorate.

In the following weeks, I guess Dr. Wright began to trust me a little, and began sharing a large swathe of early research work which lead to Bitcoin. This included research work pertaining to Bitcoin’s neural network capability, and even Blacknet (now known as metanet). Craig has no idea of this, but the large volume of his own research work that he had sent quite literally kept me up all hours of the night and I’d end up at work a zombie… Occasionally, I’d message him and say, I really have to sleep, only to get more emails stating “more reading material”. It was a rough time.

If you approach in good will, and if you approach Craig without any ill-intention to the original Bitcoin design, he will most certainly be open to sharing with you. Just don’t expect an outright extrovert.

With the bulk of intimate knowledge possessed by Craig, and with the recent signings to Matonis and Andresen, I was confident that this was the main man behind the world’s greatest invention. Why is it the world’s greatest invention? – Because the problem of money has been solved. Finally. And contrary to what you may read or hear, the protocol must absolutely be locked if you want to prevent any future state, government, company or developer group from hijacking the protocol again for self interests.

But – particularly in those days, if you said you thought Craig was Satoshi, you would be flamed, cast aside into oblivion. This happened to Gavin Andresen… he got knived, not by Craig, but by Core devs who were so threatened by his admission that Craig was Satoshi that they couldn’t bear to have him with commit access and potentially reintroduce the creator who would steer the ship into the original roadmap again. So not only was Gavin kicked off the project, but he was mauled by savages and forced into exile.

I met Roger Ver in 2017, when we were all on the same side back then. We may not be on the same side today, but I do not think Roger to be a bad person at all. In fact, he’s quite humble for a multi-millionaire. But I do think he’s been given some shocking advice that’s placed him in a difficult trajectory… that’s my opinion and he would disagree – that’s fine. – He offered me a lift to the airport – and, I’m a nobody… but he was nice enough to do that. During the ride he shared that he had met Dr. Wright a week prior and that Wright had offered to sign with Satoshi keys as evidence. Roger responded that he believed him and that signing was unnecessary. Roger then joked “of course I’m not prepared to go public about it”. We all knew what ‘going public’ meant. It meant suicide… look what happened to Gavin, to Matonis…

We generally kept quiet, but even my mere assertion that Craig understood Bitcoin and knew what he was talking about was met with heavy gunfire in response.

In fact even a recent post by Ryan X. Charles (CEO of Moneybutton) which painted Dr. Wright positively was met with incredible criticism, – mostly by anonymous accounts.

https://twitter.com/ryanxcharles/status/1123662373900910592

And while his supporters deal with a lot of shit flinging, it pales heavily in comparison to what he himself deals with.

Granted, Craig now has a much bigger support base, he is much better structured and he is now on the offensive. And with Craig’s move openly state that he created Bitcoin as well, it has become much easier to say the same these days. And this is the point that was raised earlier… the fightback is only just starting.

Craig has been dealing with credible death threats, family threats, sexual abuse threats, smear campaigns and dirty tactics that would make a presidential election race look coy. And that’s not an exaggeration. And this has been happening from people seeking to silence and destroy Craig from years before he was even outed even… the information is out there if you look beyond the prevailing rhetoric.

These individuals that wanted to silence Craig are now finding themselves dealing with a monster forged by their own doing. When criminals choose to attack from the shadows and threaten family members and attempt to subdue people, don’t be surprised when the campaign is returned ten-fold. And in attaining legitimacy on his actions and his proofs, Craig is seeking the courts.

Astonishingly, people are actually crying out foul play. There is no institution in the world that is without issue or controversy, true. But compare the legitimate standing of the court of law to underground criminal organisations and you have chalk and cheese.

Admittedly, there are times where I have felt I needed to apologise for Craig’s behaviour – and I was wrong to even contemplate that. With everything he has dealt with, you cannot expect a compliant individual. If he was a pushover, Bitcoin would’ve died already. Jimmy Nguyen was right when he said “I make no apologies for Craig Wright… otherwise he wouldn’t be who he is today”.

And who is Craig Wright? Based on everything I have personally seen and witnessed, he is the genius behind Bitcoin and the Metanet. To the doubters, the evidence is coming (from numerous fronts, including some I am personally digging out myself, and even culminating in a signing), but NOT on your terms. A man capable of over 17+ degrees, including multiple doctorates, operating numerous businesses, with countless inventions, papers, and heading for thousands of patents… well that should be an inspiration to anyone wanting to attain anything in life… As Ryan X. Charles voiced “I thought it was humanly impossible to achieve so much”…

Instead, this editorial will be ridiculed (mostly by anonymous trolls), and every outlet that has any investment or allegiance with competing digital assets will trash it.

Craig Wright has filed a copyright claim with the US Copyright Office in the United States on the Bitcoin White Paper. According to Emin Gün Sirer, professor at Cornell -Ithaka New York, it is specified that according to the Berne Treaty, copyright belongs to the author and that the deposit of copyright for the original content is unnecessary. Copyright does not imply authorship and does not mean that the plaintiff created the content.
Intellectual property expert Alex Meijas says that once you have received a patent, all derivative works are also legally owned by you. This means that Craig Wright can potentially sue Bitcoin Cash and other forks for violating his work.

Yes CRW, this person seems to be honest because he explains that BSV's vision is a conversion to change what the BitcoinCore team has produced. (This confuses the new BTC programmer with the overlay of the Lightning network core, making the process illegal by not recording transactions in the block chain.) It recreates the cleaning protocol step (Bitcoin) with a clean version with unlimited block size and Op_return protection. Before starting, they would fix other people's conditions of the new nChain roadmap is as follows: figure https://bitcoinsv.io/roadmap/. see.

it totally summarizes the legal context that this impact for the BSV Roll Eyes

Another for Satoshi: Second Copyright Filing Appears for Bitcoin White Paper

Craig Wright, the Australian entrepreneur who recently and controversially filed copyright registrations for the bitcoin white paper and original code, now has a legal rival.

A second copyright registration (number TX0008726120) for the white paper has appeared on the public catalog of the United States Copyright Office, indicating that a certain Wei Liu is also claiming to have originated the work under the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto.

The filing is dated May 24, 2019, while Wright’s is dated April 11, 2019.

https://static.coindesk.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/Satoshi-2-768x268.png

Currently, it is not clear who Wei Liu is or why the registration was filed. However, it may well be that it is a counter to Wright’s move to assert ownership of fundamental bitcoin property. That came amid a flurry of legal threats from Wright against those who claim he is not Satoshi as he has claimed on various occasions – though he has yet to provide indisputable proof, such as a movement of Satoshi’s bitcoin.

Wright is also a key mover behind the cryptocurrency Bitcoin SV (for “Satoshi Vision”) and said he would put the copyright registration in the hands of the foundation managing the token.

A press release sent to CoinDesk at the time reads:

“In the future, Wright intends to assign the copyright registrations to Bitcoin Association to hold for the benefit of the Bitcoin ecosystem. Bitcoin Association is a global industry organization for Bitcoin businesses. It supports BSV and owns the Bitcoin SV client software.”

If you have your BCH in your wallet as of the fork on November 14, 2018 (when BSV was created) and you have not split since to receive your BSV here is a very simple solution.

Send your undivided BCH to your exchanger wallet https://floatsv.com
and your transfer will be split automatically into BSV and BCH ratio 1 = 1. Works like magic;)

At this moment 1 BSV = + $120

After, you just have to repatriate your funds to your personal wallet

Tokenized Protocol for Bitcoin SV (BSV) – Beta Release

Tokenized Group Pty Ltd has announced the official public release of the Tokenized Protocol Beta. The Tokenized Protocol is a comprehensive, regulation-friendly solution for businesses to create tokens for real world assets on the Bitcoin SV (BSV) blockchain. This is a huge milestone for the Tokenized team, and they are excited to share their work with the world.

“We look forward to helping everyone in the ecosystem add support for the open-source Tokenized Protocol in their own projects. We also welcome all users, organizations, developers, governments, and investors to reach out and find out how the Tokenized Protocol can benefit them. The best place to engage with us is in our Telegram group or our community forum,” said James Belding, Founder and CEO of Tokenized. “We believe our solution is the best token and smart contract system on the market, by far, and combined with the unrivalled scaling capabilities of the Bitcoin SV (BSV) network, we believe we can systemically improve the way our world engages in voluntary exchange.”

The beta version represents a major upgrade from the alpha version, and the Tokenized team released a comprehensive set of documentation to allow developers to get a proper sense of what it can do. The documentation has also been created in such a way that less technically inclined people will still be able to understand and get value out of reading through it.

The beta version has introduced many important and innovative features that make Tokenized a very compelling value proposition for tokenizing real-world assets on the BSV blockchain. The team focused on building a system that works ‘out of the box’. To make sure they achieved this goal, the Tokenized team tailored the protocol to work within the realm of current regulatory frameworks and within the confines of law in common jurisdictions around the world.

James adds “There is still a lot of work to be done in educating regulators, however, we are confident that all of the pieces are now in place to allow the protocol to be adopted globally as a replacement for all of the current financial messaging protocols.”

Key Features of the Tokenized Protocol Beta:

• Support for a diverse array of asset types: Common Shares (SHC), Loyalty & Reward Points, Coupons, Currencies, Admission Tickets, and Memberships (with many more assets types to be announced soon)
• Multi-asset atomic swaps
• On-chain messaging for orchestrating the signing of multi-signature, threshold signature, and token exchange transactions (and more)
• Smart contract support for Identity Oracles ensuring issuers can comply with KYC, AML, CTF laws, even in secondary trading, all whilst maintaining user privacy
• Governance features that allow for an improved UX for organizational governance, all on-chain and completely managed by smart contracts
• Customizable voting systems that will allow for pseudonymous, secure and corruption-free votes. Votes can be cast from a smart phone or laptop computer.
• The voting system is technically capable of being used for all types of votes from local all the way up to national elections. (Citizenship tokens coming soon)
• Enforcement features that allow for legal authorities to issue on-chain and digitally signed court orders which can provide justification for smart contract-controlled freezing, thawing, and confiscation of tokens
• Capable of allowing banks and governments to tokenize national currencies ushering in a new paradigm of ultra-low-cost transactions, microtransactions and ~2 second clearing and settlement times.
• The Tokenized Protocol can replace traditional bank-to-bank financial messaging systems as well as payment systems provided by credit card companies
• Business friendly and sensitive to the real needs of different regulatory environments worldwide.

Tokenized is a company on a mission to build tools and solutions to unlock the value in Bitcoin for mainstream business and consumer users. They are firm in their belief that BSV is the only protocol that adheres to Satoshi Nakamoto’s original design of Bitcoin, and they believe firmly that it’s the only protocol that can work at scale. Tokenized intends to release their 10-year plan publicly in the next 6-18 months. This Beta release represents their first step in the 10-year plan which is to bring practical smart contracts and tokens to Bitcoin SV.

In 2018, the Tokenized team was selected as winner of CoinGeek’s £5M tokenisation solution contest for Bitcoin. CoinGeek, founded by billionaire technology entrepreneur Calvin Ayre, is one of the key backers of Bitcoin SV (BSV) as the only project following Bitcoin’s original design, protocol and massive-scaling vision. Ayre comments:

“The original Bitcoin design and protocol – created by Craig Wright – had everything it ever needed to power a vast array of technical capabilities – including creating tokens of real-world assets. Bitcoin is also massively scaling now, only in the form of BSV. Businesses will soon see their token needs won’t be satisfied by Ethereum’s scaling problems, but will instead be powered on BSV as the only blockchain with the scaling roadmap for enterprise token usage made easily possible by the Tokenized protocol.”

To learn more about the Tokenized solution, come to the CoinGeek Toronto conference on May 29-30 in Toronto, Canada. Tokenized CEO James Belding will be speaking about the updated Tokenized Protocol.

Shades of black and the future of Bitcoin

Dr. Craig Wright, the Chief Scientist at nChain and the man who has been identified as Satoshi Nakamoto, is diligently working to clear up the confusion regarding Bitcoin. After sitting back and watching as the original idea of cryptocurrency was changed to suit the whims of certain people who could barely pronounce currency, alone understand how economics work, Wright has been setting the record straight with insightful publications that need to be ready by anyone even remotely involved with crypto and blockchains. His latest, Shades of Black ( https://craigwright.net/blog/bitcoin-blockchain-tech/shades-of-black/ ), goes a long way toward showing the difference between the virtues of Bitcoin – a lawful, orderly endeavor – and virtually all other offerings found today that only seek chaos and anonymity.

Bitcoin can do something that the world desperately needs – it can help promote a better society. Wright explains, “Bitcoin will work because it stays within law in a manner that allows most nations to set policies. Bitcoin doesn’t help corrupt governments; to such governments Bitcoin would be their worst nightmare… It is not an anarchist system — nor one that allows people to breach the rules that are set to create a stable world.”

Those that would want to bypass government-led rules are the same that would bypass crypto rules. In other words, they’re the ones that are prone to gaming the system and conducting fraud and crime. These individuals have existed since the beginning of time and will continue to exist. However, Bitcoin is able to provide an added layer of protection and operate in an enhanced setting that can help cut down on the scammers and fraudsters.

Wright adds, “I designed Bitcoin in a way that ensures that groups such as Binance who seek to facilitate money laundering and crime will always fail. They defraud you in telling you that they are decentralised and cannot be controlled. A blockchain is only decentralised when the developers and those in charge of the protocol cannot change the rules. Bitcoin is a system that was set in stone. If the protocol is changed, then it shows and demonstrates it is not Bitcoin.”

Certain crypto projects – Bitcoin Core (BTC) included – want to introduce greater anonymity to their platforms. At the same time, they are looking to introduce fully autonomous ransomware that can never be traced back to its developers. In doing so, they are complicit in creating a criminal system that allows thieves to operate with impunity.

“Bitcoin, importantly, allows free government to compete. I did not want a system that would block any country from enacting rules that it saw as being fair and that did not impede those of another country,” asserts Wright.” To that end, Bitcoin, in its original form and in the form seen only by Bitcoin SV (BSV), is functioning to work within the boundaries established by governments and, as such, by society. Anything less than that is anarchy. As Wright puts it, “‘Doing anything you want’ is not a system that is free. Freedom comes within society, and it comes with rules.”

Deconomy panel: BSV ‘in some ways the purest form of Bitcoin’.

Bitcoin SV (BSV) is “in some ways the purest form of bitcoin,” according to a panel of crypto experts at a recent Deconomy Forum event in South Korea.

Discussing the issues of scaling in Bitcoin, the panel were in agreement about the most effective ways to solve the scaling problem, concluding that the BSV route was optimal for achieving mass scale.

Saito Tech founder, David Lancashire, said that the scaling issue was one of fundamental economics.

In the Bitcoin SV model, miners pay for the network, because they themselves get paid for mining activities. This, he argues, is the optimal climate for supporting the network at scale, which is fundamental to achieving mainstream user volumes.

This contrasts with Bitcoin Core (BTC) proponents, and those backing other alternative cryptocurrencies, who posit that networks should be provided on a voluntary basis.

The panel agreed, with Jerry Chan of SBI Holdings saying the debate over scaling arises over confusion about what scaling actually means, and the need for a focus on practical outcomes.

“Scaling means real use cases. Scaling of transactions, we have to have more and more transactions, and from a technical perspective, we don’t care how that happens…we just care about more transactions. Whatever you can do as developers to enable more businesses to push transactions onto the network, that will solve the scaling problem,” Chan said.

Bitcoin SV is gaining traction for its low fees, fast transaction times, and in-built mechanisms for scale, representing significant benefits over alternative payment methods, including for both cross-border transactions and merchant payments. This week, the nChain BSV Node Team, with the help of the Satoshi Shotgun team, showed on the Bitcoin SV Scaling Test Network (STN) that they can now achieve 1.42GB blocks—made possible by the recent upgrade to BSV 0.2.0, which now allows block sizes of up to 10GB on the testnet.

Further, Chan said BTC was an inherently unsuitable technology for commercial transactions, due to legal complexities of separating signatures from contract data, with BSV the natural beneficiary for enterprise transactions.

Jack Liu, founder at JL Partners and RelayX, said the market would continue to tilt towards micropayments on blockchain, which would ultimately amplify the case for BSV.

“The average on-chain transaction on BTC was $11,000 at the end of 2018. The average on Ethereum is $3,000. For all the talk of blockchain for micropayments, we’re moving to sizeable amounts of money on-chain…but if you can get enough viable transaction on chain that are a dollar…no-one ever needs to have the scaling debate again. They do not want to pay $2 to move $1. They want to pay $0.01,” Liu said.

Bitcoin SV breaks the block size of 1 GB in testnet!

For Bitcoin to have any chance of replacing existing payment options, it must evolve to the point where it can handle as many transactions as the number offered by these methods. Bitcoin SV (BSV) proves that it is capable of this massive scaling. The nChain BSV Node Team, with the help of the Satoshi Shotgun team, shows on the Bitcoin SV Scaling Test Network (STN) that they can now reach 1.42 GB blocks.

The team performed the tests on May 21 and planned to test larger blocks in 200 MB increments, until they reached 1 GB or a natural limit in the software. These increased block size tests were made possible by the recent upgrade of BSV 0.2.0, which now allows block sizes of up to 10 GB on the test network.

They quickly realized the desired success, surpassing previous records and operating a total of five blocks of more than 1 GB, two of which were at 1.42 GB. They encountered two minor problems, block explorers encountering degraded services and bandwidth restrictions in China affecting a node, but they did not pose any major problems. Brad Kristensen, head of TNC operations, wrote that they had ended the test because "both the Stresstestest team and the nChain team needed some sleep".

The discovery of these two problems was a productive step. As Kristensen notes, the reason for testing larger blocks was to "identify these breakpoints well in advance", so that they could be resolved before the main network took larger blocks.

The largest block processed 359,793 transactions, which is quite an achievement compared to the limited capacity of Bitcoin Core (BTC). Kristensen notes in the test plan that the number of transactions is more of a constraint than the size of the blocks, and that this test was a way to help analyze this.

These new 1GB + block sizes are rightly celebrated in the BSV community. Dr. Craig Wright, the man behind the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto and creator of the Bitcoin white paper, said about the news:

"When I started developing Bitcoin, the existing Visa network could handle 15 million Internet purchases per day. It is now close to 25 million per day, but with the results of my team, we have shown that Bitcoin could soon exceed this level. With Moore's law, Bitcoin is now able to adapt faster than Visa or MasterCard combined. ”

The founding president of the Bitcoin Association, Jimmy Nguyen, also had a say in the test. "Big blocks, big companies," he began, focusing on the ultimate goal of larger blocks. "With these impressive test results, Bitcoin SV continues its massive evolution into the global enterprise blockchain - just as the creator of Bitcoin, Craig S. Wright ( Satoshi Nakamoto) has always wanted."

Noting how other so-called Bitcoin developers, such as the BTC team, had gotten lost, Nguyen said: "The other projects claiming the Bitcoin coat have abandoned this vision, but we are building the original Bitcoin every day on Bitcoin SV."

The developers behind BSV also have a lot to say about this recent success. Daniel Connoly, BSV's lead developer, wrote: "These achievements show that we are on the right track with our improvements in node implementation, but more importantly, they show that Bitcoin, as originally designed, is evolving.

Steve Shadders, BSV's Technical Director, wanted to celebrate the team's successes and their significance for Bitcoin's future. "I congratulate the SV Bitcoin team for exceeding expectations once again," he began. "For me, the most interesting measure captured in this test is the bulk transaction costs. For the first time in our history, we have seen a blocking of transaction fees collected that exceeds the reward for the blocking. This means that Bitcoin is finally becoming the Bitcoin that Satoshi envisioned, guided and motivated by transaction costs. We are entering a new paradigm, not only with the advent of data use cases, but also in the behaviour of minors that generates costs. ”

Finally, Kristensen thanked the efforts of the SV Node team, who made this possible thanks to their hard work and professionalism. "Steve, Daniel and the rest of the SV Node team have made commendable efforts. Their work is world-class. The quality control and rigorous testing of their code are highlighted in the results obtained today," he wrote. "Part of version 0.2.0 to make this possible included a hard range on the STN channel, which passed without a hitch or a "lost" transaction."

This massive news is yet another testament to BSV's ability to evolve the blockchain and realize a new vision of money and world data. If you are interested in participating in the celebration, the CoinGeek Toronto Resizing Conference begins in less than a week at the Carlu in Toronto. If you haven't already done so, register now to discover other exciting activities in the world of Bitcoin and perhaps meet some of the people who have made this success possible.

BSV Node New Update

The Bitcoin SV Node team released version 0.2.0 of the Bitcoin SV Node implementation today. This update to the software continues the Bitcoin SV focus on massive scaling, delivering a new API to support mining massive blocks and including support for the Quasar Bitcoin SV protocol upgrade that is scheduled for July 24th 2019. The Quasar Bitcoin SV protocol upgrade will increase the maximum acceptable block size from 128MB to 2GB.

The release has been managed using the team’s enterprise-class development, release, and quality assurance processes, providing additional assurance on the quality of the software delivered.

The new mining API is a big step forwards towards mining massive blocks on the Bitcoin SV network. This API is based on the work of Andrew Stone and Johan van der Hoeven and was subsequently collaboratively updated by nChain with input from mining professionals. The API removes the impact of the size of the block on mining operations, providing a fixed size header to the mining equipment regardless of block size. The design also removes the need for wallet capabilities to be included in the Bitcoin SV node implementation, which will enable significant performance improvements. This API will form the foundation of future improvements to the mining functions of the Bitcoin SV Node implementation while maintaining a stable API which miners can integrate into their systems.

Changes of note include:

new mining API
support for Quasar upgrade
change of the license to Open BSV license
default maximum OP_RETURN size to 100kb
default transaction relay delay to 150ms
upgrade to C++17
removal of support for 32-bit and ARM architectures
cleanup of defunct code – magnetic upgrade activation, ABC forced obsolescence
Source code is available on the bitcoin-sv github https://github.com/bitcoin-sv/bitcoin-sv and the signed binaries are available on https://download.bitcoinsv.io/

Dr. Craig Wright and Jimmy Nguyen discuss Bitcoin whitepaper copyright source from https://coingeek.com/dr-craig-wright-and-jimmy-nguyen-discuss-bitcoin-whitepaper-copyright/

The United States Copyright Office has issued Dr. Craig Steven Wright a the copyright registration for the original Bitcoin whitepaper, which Dr. Wright originally posted online in 2008 under the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto.

The copyright registration was issued after the examiner at the U.S. Copyright Office was aware that the Bitcoin white paper was a “famous work” with questions about who was Satoshi Nakamoto, and only after Dr. Wright confirmed he was author of the seminal paper which started the Bitcoin revolution.

In addition to the original Bitcoin whitepaper, the U.S. Copyright Office also issued Dr. Wright a copyright registration for most of the original Bitcoin code (version 0.1 of the Bitcoin client software) which he authored.

The U.S. copyright registration certificates are:

• U.S. copyright registration no. TXu 2-136-996, effective date April 11, 2019, for the paper entitled Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System, with year of completion 2008. The registration recognizes the author as Craig Steven Wright, using the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto.
• U.S. copyright registration no. TX-8-708-058, effective date April 13, 2019, for computer program entitled Bitcoin, with year of completion 2009 and date of first publication January 3, 2009. The registration recognizes the author as Craig Steven Wright, using the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto. Wright wrote most of version 0.1 of the Bitcoin client software, and the registration covers the portions he authored.

After being involuntarily “outed” as Satoshi Nakamoto by certain media publications, Wright first come out as the creator of Bitcoin in 2016, and provided proof to several people, including Gavin Anderson former lead developer of the Bitcoin project. However, supporters of the Bitcoin Core (BTC) developer group, which had commandeered the Bitcoin project, led a successful smear campaign against Dr. Wright.

The group had hindered the original vision of Bitcoin by stifling scaling attempts and creating Layer 2 settlement networks, namely the Lighting Network, which take transactions off chain and away from what Bitcoin was meant to be. In 2017, they added the definitive fatal blow – Segregated Witness – to the Bitcoin protocol and forever changed Bitcoin from its core definition as a chain of digital signatures.

What pushed Wright to lift the Satoshi Nakamoto veil for good and now take efforts to defend his original vision for Bitcoin? It was a combination of events. First, there was the bastardization of BTC introduced by SegWit, changing Bitcoin into what BTC is today (SegWit Coin or Core Coin). Wright then chose to support Bitcoin Cash (BCH) which forked away from BTC in August 2017, with the supposed mission to restore Bitcoin’s original vision. However, after attempting to work with BCH development group Bitcoin ABC for over a year, it became clear in 2018 to Dr. Wright that BCH development groups were also deviating from the original Bitcoin protocol – by introducing significant protocol changes not included in the original design and by pursuing massive scaling as quickly as needed.

Having seen his creation bastardized not once but twice, Dr. Wright has acted to preserve his original Satoshi Vision for Bitcoin. He explains, “When I wrote the Bitcoin white paper, I uploaded it on the bitcoin.org domain so that people would start understanding bitcoin. I’ve come to understand that few people if any of taken the time to understand what is written in this paper so I have formally published it and registered it with the U.S. Copyright Office so that I can confirm my authorship and copyright ownership, and start teaching people the true meaning of what Bitcoin is about and stop people twisting the narrative.”

That twisted narrative lead to criminals, like drug dealers and money launders, to become the face of Bitcoin. The accountability and traceability that the Bitcoin blockchain provides was left on the back burner, and it was marketed to the worst elements of society. Wright could not stand for that.

“The last thing that I said to Gavin Anderson in 2011 when I handed him the control of the code was that “I wish you wouldn’t keep talking about me as a mysterious shadowy figure, the press just turns that into a pirate currency angle,” Dr. Wright recalls. “Maybe instead make it about the open source project and give more credit to your dev contributors; it helps motivate them.”

Now that Wright has legally claimed copyright ownership of the Bitcoin white paper and most of the early Bitcoin code, he’s working to ensure his creation will regain the original mission it was meant to have. “Bitcoin was designed to be honest and not another criminal coin,” he said. “It’s time for people to learn that and see that I’m (as Satoshi) not just some shady figure because I didn’t want publicity”

In the future, Wright intends to assign the copyright registrations to Bitcoin Association to hold for the benefit of the Bitcoin ecosystem. Bitcoin Association is a global industry organization for Bitcoin businesses. It supports BSV and owns the Bitcoin SV client software. Founding President Jimmy Nguyen comments:

“We are thrilled to see Craig Wright recognized as author of the landmark Bitcoin white paper and early code. Better than anyone else, Craig understands that Bitcoin was created be a massively scaled blockchain to power the world’s electronic cash for billions of people to use, and be the global data ledger for the biggest enterprise applications. We look forward to working with Craig and others to ensure his original vision is recognized as Bitcoin and is realized through BSV.”

Since the announcement Tuesday, the trolls have come out in full force, albeit in much smaller numbers than in the past. They’re trying to downplay, disparage and dismiss Dr. Wright and the US Copyright office suggesting this is “just another scam.”

The mental gymnastics these people are doing could compete with Simone Biles, but Dr. Wright has a final word on the trolls, “Importantly, if this was not real, it means I would face 20 years. If a single person could discredit me, I get an orange suit. The issue is they cannot.”

Wright has good support and wise advice by his side. His colleague Nguyen, former CEO of nChain, was a highly-regarded intellectual property and digital technology lawyer in the United States for 21 years, and is former Chair of the State Bar of California’s Intellectual Property Law Section. Commenting on public reaction to the copyright registrations, Nguyen says: “It’s amusing to watch the online trolls and critics freak out about Craig’s copyright registrations. If the registrations don’t mean anything, what are people afraid of?”

Nguyen instead focuses on the legal impact of the registrations: “Under global copyright law, Craig always held copyright ownership of the Bitcoin white paper and Bitcoin code authored since the moment he created those works and fixed them into a tangible medium of expression. Most countries do not require registration of works. But in certain countries, like the United States, an author receives additional benefits by obtaining copyright registration for his works. In this situation, what is exceptionally notable is that the U.S. Copyright Office did not rubber-stamp Craig’s copyright applications. The U.S. Copyright examiner responded far more quickly to the copyright applications than is normal – within three business days (which is extremely unusual and extremely fast) – and asked questions about applications, including recognizing that the Bitcoin white paper was a famous work and noting there were questions about who is Satoshi Nakamoto. The U.S. Copyright Office only issued the copyright registrations after Craig responded and confirmed his authorship. Contrary to what the naysayers are suggesting, the U.S. copyright registrations do carry legal weight and we look forward to working with Craig to ensure his original vision is recognized as Bitcoin and is realized through BSV.”

Dr. Wright will be attending the upcoming CoinGeek Toronto scaling conference, and will feature prominently in a Fireside chat with Jimmy Nguyen. The conversation is bound to have plenty of revelations about the early history of Bitcoin, so it will be well worth attending.

Bitcoin SV price soars on Craig Wright’s Bitcoin copyright approval !?

The sudden announcement that Dr. Craig Wright has received the copyright for the original Bitcoin whitepaper has already had stunning affects. The market, now starting to recognize that Wright is indeed Satoshi Nakamoto, has responded quickly and Bitcoin SV (BSV) has skyrocketed in price.

According to CoinGecko, BSV more than doubled in price, jumping from $61.80 to $125.41 in the hour after the news was made public. On Bitfinex, it climbed as high as $136 before leveling off, now floating between $112 and $125.

The May 21 revelation that Wright has gained the Copyright, not just for the Bitcoin whitepaper, but the original Bitcoin code as well, helps solidify what he’s been trying to tell everyone for years: he created Bitcoin.

Not only that, but it now gives him more credibility in the public eye when he advocates for the original vision for the digital currency, as a scalable and stable protocol that can grow to be the world’s new money, and provide utility as the world’s new data network. It’s been reborn to do that as BSV.

This jump in price could still be just a fraction of what’s possible. Binance and Kraken no longer offer BSV trading pairs, and users who exclusively use those exchanges who want to get in on this new surge of optimism for the real Bitcoin will need to shift their funds before they can trade for the currency. That may take some time, possibly allowing BSV to see another sudden rise in price once they can get their funds in place.

The sudden increase in price will be a welcome sight for early BSV adopters, but they know this is just a happy side effect of their investment. The real plan for BSV is to continue scaling the blockchain massively, with an increase in block size coming in July, allowing for greater use by businesses and enterprises. Those companies, looking for a block size that is ready for real world, practical uses, have the utility, and stability of BSV as their best and only option for real world applications.

As more court cases get settled in Wright’s favor, and the real decision makers of the world recognize what he’s built in his vision for Bitcoin, expect BSV to continue to soar.

That may happen once again after Wright sits down for a Fireside chat with Bitcoin Association Founding President Jimmy Nguyen. The two will chat at the CoinGeek Toronto scaling conference later this month. It’s a must attend event, as the two are expected to discuss the history of Bitcoin, and many revelations may be made.

LONDON, May 20, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- Block reward halvings will, by Bitcoin's design, occur about every 4 years. The BTC chain abandoned on-chain scaling and thus will never fit high transaction volumes into a block, and thus miners will never earn large amounts of transaction fees from a block. Given those dynamics, Wright wanted to demonstrate how upcoming block reward halvings would impact the economics of the BTC chain and revenue to BTC miners. The results show, in black and white, the lack of sustainability of BTC over the long haul.

https://s.yimg.com/ny/api/res/1.2/EjplKAHXWKA_vZ_ISiYcPw--~A/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjtzbT0xO3c9ODAw/http://globalfinance.zenfs.com/en_us/Finance/US_AFTP_PRNEWSWIRE_LIVE/CoinGeek_The_Mathematical_Reality_of-de4f707434afa8a13fbe90cc5d294007

Consider the fact that the BTC block reward is scheduled to halve to 6.25 coins in 2020, halve again to 3.125 coins in 2024 and to just over 1.5 coins by 2028. HODLer dogma says BTC miners will continue to expend their time, energy and cash because the value of each individual coin will skyrocket over the next nine years.

States Wright, "Bitcoin (now back in the form of BSV) will see its block reward halve next year, just as Corecoin (BTC). Let's investigate the premise of constant increasing of Bitcoin's price value and see where that gets us. We'll assume the constant call for BTC to reach a value of USD $100,000 USD. Except I'm going to be realistic and do calculations based upon BTC going up in value incrementally in real terms, rather than just magically jumping up to higher amounts. The reality is that BTC won't even get to $100,000. If you start looking at the calculations, the block reward halvings mean that the BTC chain will need $20 fees or more for every individual transaction in order for mining revenue to remain sustainable. It never becomes viable." He is able to demonstrate this easily through the maths:

Even assuming individual coin value reaches $61,440 by 2028, the actual returns from the block rewards will continue to shrink, forcing miners to make up this shortfall by increasing the amount of individual transaction fees because there will not be enough transactions in each block. But given how few transactions (at most 1,800) can be fit into a small BTC block, even having $20 transaction fees will not be enough to keep mining profitable as the block reward halves and halves again.

As Wright's insight reveals, there is a lot more going on behind the scenes of Bitcoin's design that only those with a solid grasp on economic theory and financial markets can understand—it's not difficult to assess that most crypto developers do not fit in either of these categories.

Explains Wright, "In the next 10 years, bitcoin will not replace all global money. To do that, it first of all needs to be the only form of electronic cash. It would need to replace all government systems. It won't. The reality is we could expect … by 2030 [is that Bitcoin represents] 1/3 of global money. Let's round up to 2 trillion worth of total value for bitcoin and round up the number of mined bitcoins to 20 million. That means Bitcoin must reach a value $100,000 per coin. To achieve that, bitcoin needs to be 33% of global cash."

For this to happen, the solution requires massively increasing transaction volume on the Bitcoin network, and that requires massive scaling. Terabyte blocks will be needed and this is where BTC is going to fail. BTC developers have already made it clear that bigger blocks are not in their plans and have tried to assert that they're not feasible, even though Bitcoin SV has already proven this wrong. On-chain scaling is a vital and necessary component to sustain mining profitability, and thus sustain the health of the blockchain.

With BSV's proven ability to scale, Wright can easily project a day when each block contains 3m transactions (5K per second) and transaction fees fall to as little as 0.005 of a penny. That's a level that can easily compete established payment channels, making BSV the only blockchain technology with a viable path to global success.

The above scenario would hold untold benefits for billions of individuals, particularly those in developing countries, while also offering merchants an attractive alternative to the swipe fees charged by VISA and Mastercard (in the US, around 2% of the purchase amount, despite processing costs of only 5¢ per transaction).

Scaling is just one of the many topics to be discussed at the upcoming CoinGeek Conference Toronto. The two-day event gets underway May 29 at the Carlu and promises to be an important event for anyone interested in Bitcoin and where crypto is headed. This is the first time CoinGeek has held one of its famous conferences in North America and crypto enthusiasts definitely don't want to miss this incredible opportunity.

CRAIG WRIGHT IS RECOGNIZED AS SATOSHI NAKAMOTO BY AMERICAN COURTS ?

Bitcoin creator Craig S. Wright (Satoshi Nakamoto) granted US copyright registrations for Bitcoin white paper and code
Bitcoin SV (BSV) continues Wright’s original Bitcoin design and protocol

Craig S. Wright has been granted U.S. copyright registrations for the famed original Bitcoin white paper, and most of the original Bitcoin code (version 0.1). Importantly, the registrations issued by the U.S. Copyright Office recognize Wright as the author – under the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto – of both the white paper and code. This is the first government agency recognition of Craig Wright as Satoshi Nakamoto, the creator of Bitcoin. In addition to being Bitcoin’s creator, Wright is currently Chief Scientist of nChain, the global leader in advisory, research and development of blockchain technologies, which focuses on massive adoption of Bitcoin in the form of Bitcoin SV (Satoshi Vision).

The pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto was used as author of the Bitcoin white paper, first posted online in 2008, and as author of the first Bitcoin code used in January 2009. Over the past 10 years, the true identity of Bitcoin’s creator has been the subject of intense curiosity. In late 2015 and early 2016, certain media outlets reported belief that Craig Wright is Satoshi Nakamoto, leading to significant debate since then.

Notably, when reviewing Wright’s copyright applications, the U.S. copyright examiner was aware that the Bitcoin white paper and code were each a “famous work” and there have been questions about who is associated with the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto. After receiving confirmation from Wright that he is Satoshi Nakamoto, the Copyright Office granted the following registrations:

• U.S. copyright registration no. TXu 2-136-996, effective date April 11, 2019, for the paper entitled Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System, with year of completion 2008. The registration recognizes the author as Craig Steven Wright, using the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto.

• U.S. copyright registration no. TX-8-708-058, effective date April 13, 2019, for computer program entitled Bitcoin, with year of completion 2009 and date of first publication January 3, 2009. The registration recognizes the author as Craig Steven Wright, using the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto. Wright wrote most of version 0.1 of the Bitcoin client software, and the registration covers the portions he authored.

Wright is now legally establishing that he is Bitcoin’s creator after being dismayed to see his original Bitcoin design bastardized by protocol developer groups – first by Bitcoin Core BTC in 2017 and then again by Bitcoin Cash [BCH] developers in 2018. Those non-Satoshi protocol changes were made by developers who disagreed about whether or how the blockchain should massively scale. Importantly, Wright notes that “bitcoin was designed to be a monetary system that works within existing legal frameworks”. This differs from the path other developer groups are trying to follow where they are creating an anonymous system along the lines of EGold and Liberty reserve. This enables bitcoin to interact with the existing global financial system rather than seeking a black-market exchange system.

Wright and nChain are working to restore Bitcoin’s original protocol, ensure that its vision for massive blockchain scaling is fulfilled in the form of Bitcoin SV, and keep BSV designed to work within existing common law frameworks as Bitcoin was created to do. BSV emerged after the world’s first Bitcoin hash war last November to ensure the Satoshi Vision of Bitcoin lives on.

In the future, Wright intends to assign the copyright registrations to Bitcoin Association to hold for the benefit of the Bitcoin ecosystem. Bitcoin Association is a global industry organization for Bitcoin businesses. It supports BSV and owns the Bitcoin SV client software. Founding President Jimmy Nguyen comments:

“We are thrilled to see Craig Wright recognized as author of the landmark Bitcoin white paper and early code. Better than anyone else, Craig understands that Bitcoin was created be a massively scaled blockchain to power the world’s electronic cash for billions of people to use, and be the global data ledger for the biggest enterprise applications. We look forward to working with Craig and others to ensure his original vision is recognized as Bitcoin and is realized through BSV.”

Global speaker lineup comes to CoinGeek Toronto for Bitcoin SV’s massive scaling plan and thriving ecosystem !

Toronto, Ontario – May 2, 2019 – The exciting global lineup for CoinGeek’s Toronto conference is proof of the health and vigour of the Bitcoin SV (BSV) community. CoinGeek Toronto will focus on massive scaling of Bitcoin to become the world’s new money and global enterprise blockchain. That is only possible on Bitcoin SV, the only project to follow the original design, protocol and vision of Bitcoin’s creator Satoshi Nakamoto.

Building on the success of last year’s London conference which occurred shortly after BSV emerged, Toronto will welcome new and familiar names to the stage from across the world, alongside BSV leaders such as Dr. Craig Wright of nChain and Jimmy Nguyen of Bitcoin Association.

The two-day event will have a Developers Day on May 29, with the main conference on May 30.

Among the new speakers at the event will be Kate Hiscox, founder and CEO of Vancouver-based DRIVE Markets, an institutional crypto and fiat exchange which has just announced an investment “in the multiple seven figures” from Calvin Ayre, founder of CoinGeek and a major supporter of BSV.

BSV’s entry into the world of role-playing online games and eventually e-sports will be described by two executives from Kronoverse, the U.S. game development company behind CryptoFights, which will be recording player battles to the BSV blockchain. Adam Kling, founder & CEO and David Case, chief architect, of Kronoverse will even give a tech demo of CryptoFights’ use of the BSV blockchain.

Cole Diamond is probably the speaker with the shortest distance to travel, as CEO of Coinsquare, the Toronto-based cryptocurrency trading platform. Cole will talk about the future of cryptocurrency exchanges, a timely topic given recent controversies about exchanges.

More new speakers coming from across the globe will be Boris Javier Barrera Garcia, founder and CEO of the Colombian BSV payment service Bitek.co and Lin Zheming, co-founder and CEO of Mempool, a Bitcoin mining pool in China.

The Toronto event will also feature familiar names, such as long-time and well-respected Bitcoin executive Jack Liu (formerly of the OKEx and Circle exchanges). Coming from Hong Kong, Jack will be talking about his two new ventures, FloatSV, a BSV-based exchange and RelayX, which he calls a “super-wallet” as it’s compatible with a wide range of other products. Both projects are designed to promote BSV user adoption and increase transaction volumes, playing to the strengths of BSV’s highly scalable blockchain.

From Japan, another notable Bitcoin advocate Jerry Chan, general manager at Japanese financial services powerhouse SBI Group in Tokyo, will share his ideas about the age of data and accountability using blockchain technology.

Also back by popular demand to report on progress of their businesses will be Elizabeth White of New York’s The White Company, which is moving from high-end Bitcoin retail into payment solutions; Michael Hudson from London’s Bitstocks, talking about Gravity, his new “Bitcoin banking ecosystem”; Stephan Nilsson, from Norway’s UniSOT company, which is building an ERP and supply chain management solution on the BSV blockchain; and Kristy-Leigh Minehan, CTO of Core Scientific, everyone’s favourite crypto mining expert.

They join more speakers from Australia, Slovenia, South Africa, and Spain for a truly global event.

For big ideas and some revelations, don’t miss the closing interview of the conference, when Jimmy Nguyen, chair of nChain’s Strategic Advisory Board and founding president of Bitcoin Association will explore the origins of Bitcoin with none other than its creator Dr Craig Wright, nChain’s Chief Scientist – who will discuss once and for all his creation of Bitcoin.

And of course, to celebrate, there’ll be one of Calvin Ayre’s famous after-parties – the like of which Toronto has not yet seen!

Establishing T&C Agreements on the Blockchain – Visions for Bitcoin from Dr Craig S Wright

Bitcoin SV, Blockchain, Clickwrap Contracts, Terms and Conditions
A clickwrap smart contract formed on the blockchain allows for the reliable exchange and immutable record of terms and conditions (T&C) in an increasingly connected digital world.

The Hassle of Terms and Conditions
The agreement to terms and conditions of using a product or service is necessary for a fair and regulated use of the good. For ease of compliance and assurance, a clickwrap contract often comes into play.

A clickwrap contract is analogous to a shrink wrap contract used in the sale of physical software and media: when you have bought a DVD and open the cover, it means you have agreed to the terms and conditions. Similarly, in agreeing to the T&C for accessing digital software, we engage in what is called a clickwrap contract.

But in the digital world, the same process can often suffer from an unreliable connection used in communicating the agreement between the client and the seller. And even if the agreement of the T&C does go through in its entirety, what remains is a level of deniability on either side – claiming that the agreed T&C would differ from a record or that the agreement had not taken place before accessing a product or service.

Ensuring Effective and Transparent Agreements
One cornerstone which contributes to an effective agreement is making sure we can hold parties accountable; in other words, we need to have the assurance that no one can deny agreed terms and conditions. Such assurance is referred to as non-repudiation, which we can achieve using Bitcoin (BSV) and nChain intellectual property:

We offer a solution that allows merchants and consumers to engage in trade such that the access to a product or service is necessarily contingent upon the agreement to the terms and conditions—and vice versa.

A custom application, as revealed by nChain’s Chief Scientist in his Medium post of Bitcoin (SV) use cases entitled “Clickwrap smart contracts,” takes advantage of nChain’s patent innovation for Determining a Common Secret for the Secure Exchange of Information and Hierarchical, Deterministic Cryptographic Keys to enable the secure, private, and reliable exchange of contract information granting access to a product or service.

Fulfilling Commercial and Regulatory Needs
The effectiveness of T&C agreements can thereby be substantially improved; the smart-contract capabilities as offered by public blockchains such as Bitcoin SV and through nChain intellectual property leverage the method of the clickwrap contract to ensure terms and conditions are provably agreed upon by both the seller and the client when accessing a product or service.

The solution consists of several key aspects:

Conditionality: The key aspect of the solution lies in establishing a standard Bitcoin hash puzzle which requires the client to form a solution to the puzzle by agreeing to the T&C—which is then used to grant access to a product or service; the actual T&C are thereby used to form the hash, so that the provision of the hash implies an agreement to the T&C. The unique hash alone provides the necessary condition for a smart contract to give access to the product or service.
The mechanism can be thought of as an encrypted media file or software program, of which the decryption lies in agreeing to the T&C.

Transparency and immutability: A record with a timestamp of the agreement is stored on the blockchain, allowing for irrefutable proof of the transaction capturing the agreement, while also allowing for traceability of agreed changes.
In cases necessary, a Ricardian smart contract would ensure a digital signature holds up to the requirements for a written contract.

Because the agreement is stored on the blockchain, it is readily available for access by either party at any point in time; while a loss in the connection disrupting the acceptance of the T&C would normally require one party to notify the other party of the failure, the blockchain would present a reliable platform for communicating whether an agreement took place or not.

Reliability and efficiency: Using nChain’s patent innovations for the Secure Split Keytechnique and Deterministic Key Generation, we can ensure the secure and accurate exchange of information (here the T&C) and reliably authenticate both parties engaging in the exchange in a private manner.
The result is a transaction capturing the agreement of T&C in an indisputable, fast, and transparent way—offering substantial savings in the maintenance and assurance of such agreements.

In combination with nChain’s solutions for fully compliant smart contracts, we can establish the automated trigger for an email notifying the client that the exchange took place—fulfilling the strictest of requirements in web-based transactions.

Clickwrap smart contracts are directly integrable with existing T&C by storing the agreement in the data (OP_Return) field of a Bitcoin (BSV) transaction; we can even allow for the use of tokenised fiat for value of consideration and incorporate the payment transaction within the same exchange, enabling the most friendly and efficient of user experiences.

At the same time, we start picturing some of the key developments which form part of nChain’s Metanet project, where device, software, and existing web information can be organised and commercialised on the Bitcoin SV blockchain. The data of both your clients and your business is thereby seamlessly protected and kept private at all times.

Why BTC is not Bitcoin

Regardless of what some may believe, Bitcoin Core (BTC) is not Bitcoin. BTC has strayed completely away from the original definition and design of Bitcoin as explained by Satoshi Nakamoto in his white paper on the subject. If one were to compare the characteristics of Bitcoin and BTC side by side, the differences would become glaringly obvious. Dr. Craig Wright https://coingeek.com/craig-wright-defamation-suit-adam-back-blockstream/ , who knows Bitcoin better than anyone else on the planet – he should; he designed it – explains in a Medium https://medium.com/@craig_10243/dont-be-fooled-bitcoin-is-not-btc-61e6aee8ac53 post some of the reasons why BTC is not Bitcoin.

Wright leads off by attempting to set the record straight on Bitcoin. He explains, “Firstly, there is the fallacy that Satoshi acted in a particular way. The reality is that as Satoshi https://coingeek.com/beware-of-bch-troll-miner-posing-as-satoshi-nakamoto/ , I interacted with people who held views that differed from mine. In creating Bitcoin, I sought to create an honest and legally enforceable cash system. To be cash, that is to be money, Bitcoin needs to be neutral. It is not a system that is friendly to crime but a system that is friendly to most people. Such are people who act across the law in a variety of ways.”

Bitcoin was designed to be private, not anonymous. A look at a number of the digital currency offerings shows how the idea of privacy has been completely bastardized and misdefined by a number of crypto developers looking to support their own agendas.

Bitcoin was really, in essence, according to Wright, designed to allow people to conduct transactions without having to use a credit or debit card. Perhaps they don’t own one, they don’t want to give it out, or perhaps they don’t want to get stuck with a recurring bill. Regardless of the reason, Bitcoin was to offer an easy, peer-to-peer solution for a number of problems.

Wright explains, “There is a great falsehood about Bitcoin that has been spread by such people seeking to hijack the platform and create something else. It is the claim that Bitcoin was anti-authority. Bitcoin is an immutable log and an immutable evidence trail. Bitcoin is a form of money that is traceable allowing for the requirements of a sound and honest money dictated by Joseph Stiglitz https://coingeek.com/nobel-prize-winning-economist-wants-to-end-crypto-but-proves-he-doesnt-understand-it/ . Unfortunately, the people who sought e-gold and DigiCash and tried to create bit gold did not want Bitcoin. Such groups sought something completely different to what Bitcoin is, and have hijacked the narrative.”

Despite a believe by some crypto fans that Bitcoin https://coingeek.com/prince-charles-finds-bitcoin-very-interesting-development/ can operate with governments, this is a fallacy that shows how little these individuals understand of currency, Bitcoin and governments. Wright states in his post, “Bitcoin doesn’t stop banking fraud and doesn’t stop fraud at all. Fraud is stopped when you have requirements to act under law and Bitcoin as an evidentiary trail. The point is, Bitcoin reduces the need for certain governmental controls when government exists.”

Developers have already shown that they can – and will – change digital currencies to suit their own needs. This is precisely the issue Bitcoin was striving to address – the ability of a central government to change currencies on a whim. This is why BTC, and other coins like it, are not Bitcoin and why they will ultimately fail. It is also the reason that Bitcoin SV is the original https://coingeek.com/bitcoin-sv-is-a-safety-beacon-in-the-turbulent-tides-of-the-cryptocurrency-chaos/ – and only – Bitcoin and why it will ultimately succeed.

BSV Hackathon provides 36 new solutions to onboarding

The world’s first Bitcoin SV (BSV) hackathon has come to a close, and it was a resounding success. Thirty six submissions made it across the finish line, and now the developers wait to see who the judges will chose to move on.

In total, 216 eager coders signed up to participate in the event. Of that number, 122 were to compete as individuals, and another 94 joined together to form 42 teams. They worked on their projects for 48 hours, starting at 12pm GMT+1 on Saturday, May 4 and ending at 12pm Monday, May 6 GMT+1. Of those entrants, 100 joined the Hackathon Telegram channel, of which many acted as representative of their teams.

The goal of the hackathon was broad enough to inspire creativity, but had a specific goal in mind. At the start of the event, the participants were told in a Telegram group to work on a project that would foster better onboarding, not just in end-users, but also for developers, in interacting with the BSV blockchain. Their entry should demonstrate that it was an application that provided fresh new ideas towards those two aspects of adoption, while maintaining the ability to scale, a key focus of BSV.

As the event kicked off, the mood was positive and supportive, as it typically is within the BSV community. The entrants encouraged each other, providing assistance when others got stuck with their code, and generally encouraging the entire group towards their solutions. Ted Rivera, one of the entrants, said of the atmosphere, “It was a very nurturing and educational environment where all worked hard to help others find solutions. Felt more like one big workshop.”

The biggest obstacle wasn’t in beating others towards the prize, but in achieving something within the time constraints of the event. One developer said, “The competition between participants was relevant. But the most important competition was amongst oneself: pushing oneself beyond the limits of attainable when the event started.”

It can be a grind to develop for 48 hours straight, and every little bit helped spur them towards their goals. A participant going by the name Van Gogh said:

“I was also at that point where there were like 20 hours left I was completely spent and ready to just submit what I had. Then one of Jimmy’s videos would come on and I was like dammmmn! he’s talking directly to the hundred of us, I can still smash out some code for this API part lol”

The sense of achievement at the end was real. 36 submissions got across the finish line with a working application in total. Another entrant named Attila said of the feeling:

“It was a refreshing experience to meet and organize with other builders in this space. I am impressed with how many different people worked well together. It’s going to be amazing to see what everyone has created. There are many thoughtful and talented developers in the competition that makes it suspenseful and exciting.”

The next step is the top three finalists will be chosen by a panel of judges, and a representative from each will be flown to Toronto, Canada for the CoinGeek Toronto scaling conference. There, an expanded group of judges and the live audience will combine to vote on the winner.

First place brings home a whopping 250 BSV, a great start towards funding a new project. Second and third place will win 100 BSV and 50 BSV respectively, making for 400 BSV in total being granted to the finalists.

It doesn’t end there though. After presenting their work and the prizes are awarded, plenty of entrepreneurial types, including the Bitcoin Association, will be at the conference, considering the contestants’ projects for potential investment.

BSV is ready for the world’s business. Are you?
Since Bitcoin was revitalized in November 2018 in the form of Bitcoin SV (BSV), the Bitcoin world hasn’t been short of amazing. The recent months have proven that by following Satoshi’s original plan of keeping a stable protocol as we focus on the roadmap towards secure, massive on chain scaling, we are opening a world of incredible new possibilities—as we work towards enabling the world’s new money.

In October, we announced Tokenized, which creates customizable smart contract system for Bitcoin SV, as the winner of our £5M contest for Bitcoin Token Solutions. This project, created by James Belding, Samuel Georges, Scott Barr, Farid Uddeen, and Brendan Lee, proves that Satoshi’s original vision for Bitcoin undeniably works, because they used resources only made available through massive scaling, and not through further protocol changes.

We’ve already seen that because Bitcoin SV offers unlimited possibilities, it’s created a Cambrian explosion of creativity and innovation. Now, we’re on the next step. That of creating businesses and industries powered by Bitcoin SV. I know people have bright ideas of how to do that, and they just might need a little support to make it a reality.

Bitcoin, after all, is not just the future of money—it’s the future of business.

I’ve said it before but it merits repeating. 2019 will be a year of massive on-chain scaling, and that’s already proving to be true. Bitcoin SV has already proven it can sustain 64MB blocks, 103MB blocks, and now regularly mines 128MB blocks, with plans to reach 500MB by the mid-year, and between 1GB and 2GB blocks by the end of the year. The protocol has already proven that scaling on chain has to come first, and application developers and users will flow in to fill it.

Now, I want to plan the next step, and get the world’s new businesses kick-started. If you’re ready for the new world of Bitcoin, let us know, and we’ll get to that next step together.

Celebrate the renewed life of Bitcoin, and all the developments happening with Bitcoin SV, with all the world leaders in on-chain scaling at the CoinGeek Toronto conference on May 29-30. This is the third conference I’ve done, and this time, the special focus is on massive on-chain scaling—the one area where people supporting these other technologies that don’t work are very confused about.

On-chain scaling gives the confidence to enterprises and start-ups to aim their application development at that network which is going to stimulate the transaction volume that’s necessary to attract the security. At the end of the day, just like there’s no need to be two internets, there will only be one platform. And that platform has to, by definition, be the one that scales.

CoinGeek Toronto, which will take place at the Carlu, will welcome new faces as well as familiar names to the global stage, alongside BSV leaders such as nChain’s Dr. Craig Wright and Founding President of the Bitcoin Association Jimmy Nguyen. And of course, to celebrate, there’ll be one of my famous after-parties—the likes of which Toronto has not yet seen!

For full details and to reserve tickets to CoinGeek Toronto, register here. If you’re ready for the new world of Bitcoin, let us know, and we’ll get to that next step together.

Don’t be fooled — Bitcoin is not BTC

In order to clear up some areas around my history as the creator of Bitcoin for people, I need to point out a few fallacies. Firstly, there is the fallacy that Satoshi acted in a particular way. The reality is that as Satoshi, I interacted with people who held views that differed from mine. In creating Bitcoin, I sought to create an honest and legally enforceable cash system. To be cash, that is to be money, Bitcoin needs to be neutral. It is not a system that is friendly to crime but a system that is friendly to most people. Such are people who act across the law in a variety of ways.

BTC is passing off as Bitcoin, it is a fake airdrop copy.
Bitcoin is a system that is private. It is not anonymous.

Bitcoin would be convenient for people who don’t have a credit card or don’t want to use the cards they have, either don’t want the spouse to see it on the bill or don’t trust giving their number to “porn guys”, or afraid of recurring billing.
The point made is important; anonymity breeds crime, and crime kills freedom. You will note that I did not promote drugs or any other illicit activities. I did not promote Bitcoin for such uses. Bitcoin is not a good system for illicit activity, as they involved with Silk Road discovered. Porn is legal. There are many other things that are legal, some of which may not want to be associated with people’s credit cards. Here’s the thing: Bitcoin is private allowing you to use it as cash and make purchases the same way you would going down to the corner store in the past and picking up legal but socially not acceptable items. When I was a child, certain things were allowed but not condoned. The means were not anonymous. If you paid for them with cash, people still knew, but people with knowledge were very limited.

Bitcoin does not stop debt
No cryptocurrency can. No system ever will. Debt is contractual. Unless you ban all contracts, debt exists, and to ban all contracts means to ban all trade. Even in Bitcoin, you can create debt obligations and bonds. In fact, you can create a lighthouse project that needs to be repaid over time. There is nothing, and I mean nothing, that can be done in the modern world that cannot also be done in Bitcoin.

There is a great falsehood about Bitcoin that has been spread by such people seeking to hijack the platform and create something else. It is the claim that Bitcoin was anti-authority. Bitcoin is an immutable log and an immutable evidence trail. Bitcoin is a form of money that is traceable allowing for the requirements of a sound and honest money dictated by Joseph Stiglitz. Unfortunately, the people who sought e-gold and DigiCash and tried to create bit gold did not want Bitcoin. Such groups sought something completely different to what Bitcoin is, and have hijacked the narrative.

There is nothing at all about Bitcoin that is anti-authoritarian. To say so would be to say that gold itself was anti-authoritarian. When I created Bitcoin, I created a monetary system that would work within the existing framework. E-gold, Liberty Reserve, and many others came about, but the reality is, they all ended as a result of legal action. Bitcoin needs to work within the law to be valid.

Cypherpunk and the fallacy of no true Scotsman
I’m sorry to disappoint you, but I used the Cypherpunks mailing lists on a regular basis. I was one of the first people to use them. The fact that there were some who were, like Julian Assange, anti-everything did not mean that I or Bitcoin was anarchist. To assume that everyone on a mailing list holds a select view means a false understanding of the list and the people on it. The no true Scotsman argument that no Cypherpunks list member would ever support a regulated system is utterly false. The fallacy of composition needs to be considered. The simple argument here is made that all ‘cypherpunks’ support anarchy, yet I was on the list — which is easy to prove. I do not support anarchy in any form. I did not in the 90s, and I never will.

“The system is entirely decentralized, without any server or trusted parties,” details Nakamoto. “The network infrastructure can support a full range of escrow transactions and contracts, but for now the focus is on the basics of money and transactions.”
Note that if you read the white paper, you will discover that there are two aspects here:

1. Peer-to-peer cash is distributed when two parties exchange a transaction.

2. The node network is a distributed database.

They are separate concepts. When I released the software in 2009, everything was put onto one single simple package. It was not designed to remain so, and in fact, I always expected that in time, miners as nodes would start to aggregate into large corporations that would run out of data centres. Competing organisations make for something that is decentralised. Which is how Bitcoin works. No individual organisation, corporation that runs a Bitcoin node in order to mine and verify bitcoin can change the rules. The protocol is fixed.

With the tortious airdrop copy of Bitcoin, BTC, what we see is a false version of Bitcoin designed to hide the fact that a small group of control-freak developers seek to dictate monetary policy through Bitcoin. They seek to alter it to make it anonymous rather than pseudonymous and to act outside the law. All of it comes through the results of Silk Road. That is, Bitcoin demonstrating that it is not a good drug coin. It was designed not to be. Freedom does not include crime. Contrary to the continuous lies saying that nothing bad was sold on Silk Road, captures of Silk Road demonstrate sales of:

plastic explosives;
ammunition;
poisons; and
hard drugs including crack, ice, and worse.
The simple reality is that many people seeking the illicit casino world and the drug-coin world have hijacked Bitcoin to make something that Bitcoin was never designed to be.

“It’s [BitCoin is] very attractive to the libertarian viewpoint if we can explain it properly.”

No matter how much of an anarchist you are, let alone libertarian (which is not anarchist at all, by the way), one thing to take note of is that fraud is never acceptable. The first thing to note here is that passing off is a form of fraud. It is a tort based on the deception in claiming something that is other than the real matter is; you lead someone to believe that he is getting what he is seeking, and give him something else. People are being led to believe they are getting Bitcoin when in fact they are getting a crippled developer-controlled mutation.

The protocol was open but not open to change. Bitcoin works and is decentralised only when the protocol is fixed. The lie that you are being told is that developers need to be able to move the goalposts and make new protocol changes whenever they feel like it. The Internet protocol does not change. New applications are built, and additional systems are constructed on top of the protocol, but the protocol itself remains stable. TCP is valid today just as it was in the past. If I plug a computer running DOS version 5.0 onto the network using a TCP stack program from the 80s, it will still connect to the Internet. If I connect a XENOS machine or a SunOS 3.0 computer using code from the 80s and 90s, it will still connect to the Internet, and it will be able to send and receive packets. That is protocol stability.

For Bitcoin to work and be stable, the protocol cannot change. If the protocol changes all the time, we end up like IPX. And when it does, business investment becomes stifled. The length of time needed to both create a new process and program and then recoup the costs is not given.

On decentralisation
Bitcoin is only decentralised through the protocol. Here lies the nature of decentralisation. Decentralisation of power involves the inability for an individual to take control of the system. In order to ensure it, developers cannot set the rules. The lie that you are being taught by the promoters of an airdrop copy of Bitcoin which trades with a ticker symbol BTC (also known as Core coin) is that the false copy was in any way decentralised. The truth is that the promoters of such a controlled derivative seek to pass off an extremely highly manipulated system as one being decentralised.

Such is the founding spirit of Bitcoin: it’s a system that acts as a protocol of sound money that leaves a traceable evidential record. It is a system that is antithetical to crime. It is a system that is antithetical to anarchy, and it is a system that works within the law and regulations as they have been constructed in the world of common law.

When I made the following comment on the peer-to-peer mailing list, people saw it and decided to cherry-pick words:

A lot of people automatically dismiss e-currency as a lost cause because of all the companies that failed since the 1990’s. I hope it’s obvious it was only the centrally controlled nature of those systems that doomed them. I think this is the first time we’re trying a decentralized, non-trust-based system.
They extract the word decentralised from the argument. But it’s not what the context says; what I wrote was “a decentralized, non-trust-based system.” As such, we end up with a:

global distributed database, with additions to the database by consent of the majority, based on a set of rules…
It is important to remember not that it is a decentralised system, but that it is a global distributed database. Additions to the database are created using a fixed protocol — which is the key here; Bitcoin is a non-trust-based system because it has a fixed protocol. As soon as you allow developers to change the protocol, you trust the developers.

Developers are not decentralised. Developers acting within an open-source project act as a system with a benevolent dictator. I left Bitcoin as a project so that I would not be the benevolent dictator. I left to be an absentee dictator. One who set rules in stone. I explained it well, I would have thought, but obviously it went over everyone’s head.

The discussion involved people asking about changing the protocol. It was argued that the number of coins and other protocol aspects of Bitcoin would need to be changed. I said categorically that Bitcoin’s rules as a protocol are predetermined.

At the start of the post I categorically said that Bitcoin was created as a system “with no central server or trusted parties.” Trusted parties are ones such as developers who hold power over the protocol. If a developer can change the rules, they set the rules.

When a dishonest system like Core coin (BTC) seeks to alter Bitcoin in creating an airdrop that poses as if it was Bitcoin, they are conducting an attack on the system. There is a common law tort for it: it is called passing off — which is where someone fraudulently pretends to be someone or something he is not. When Core forked Bitcoin in 2017, they created a new system, and yet they pretend that it was the original Bitcoin protocol. To be honest, to act within the law, Core would need to call it something else.

They could call it Core coin, developer coin, protocol-changes-weekly coin, but they cannot legally decide to name it Bitcoin. They could call it airdrop-altered-version-of-Bitcoin coin and still be honest, but they wouldn’t want to do so. They want to pass off their illegitimate copy as the original.

If you simply want to create a copy of Bitcoin, the copyright allows you to do so. You can for instance create a system such as Ethereum or even Litecoin without any risk of passing off and having people confuse your new coin with Bitcoin. It allows for fair and honest competition. But of course it is not what people in such camps want. They don’t want honest competition, they want to use lies and fraud and argue that fraud was somehow part of a libertarian ideal. It is not.

Set in stone
As soon as you allow any developer to start changing rules, Bitcoin is no longer decentralised, and if it is no longer decentralised, it is no longer Bitcoin. I will say it in another way: if the rules of Bitcoin that form the protocol change, you have altered Bitcoin and created something other than Bitcoin. Just like a SunOS machine from the 80s being able to access the Internet today, to be Bitcoin, the system needs to be stable, and a transaction signed today needs to be valid 50 years from now. If such is not the case, if developers can alter the protocol, you are not talking about Bitcoin.

Set in stone.
The big error here is thinking that Bitcoin without government does anything. Without government, Bitcoin doesn’t stop banking fraud and doesn’t stop fraud at all. Fraud is stopped when you have requirements to act under law and Bitcoin as an evidentiary trail. The point is, Bitcoin reduces the need for certain governmental controls when government exists.

Central banks are not the issue; manipulation is.

The root problem with conventional currency is all the trust that’s required to make it work. The central bank must be trusted not to debase the currency, but the history of fiat currencies is full of breaches of that trust. Banks must be trusted to hold our money and transfer it electronically, but they lend it out in waves of credit bubbles with barely a fraction in reserve.
My profound distrust is not towards central banks. It is towards technocrats who think they know far more than everyone else. It is my motivation behind creating Bitcoin. In the quote above, I make it very clear that I do not believe in the long-term viability of currencies that are trust based — that is, the DEVELOPERS can alter them as and when they please! That is, BTC is the reason Bitcoin exists. Bitcoin exists to ensure systems like BTC fail…

Thanks to Gabriel, Tonesnotes, and Lin Zheming.

Jimmy Nguyen on the unmatched power of the Bitcoin SV blockchain
As impressive as blockchains are, there is still work to be done if they’re to be accepted by businesses on a large scale. Today, the only blockchain that recognizes the importance of being robust – robust enough for corporations the size of IBM and Amazon – is Bitcoin SV (BSV) and the CEO of nChain, Jimmy Nguyen, recently sat down for an interview to discuss why BSV is leading the way and how it is the best solution for businesses as they transition to the blockchain. https://youtu.be/KXgxhz5_GKw

One thing is clear to business minds. If they’re going to adopt any technology, it has to be stable, it has to be versatile and it has to be powerful. BSV makes all three possible, developing a platform that is capable of thousands of transactions per minute with aspirations of over seven billion transactions per minute. This type of scalability is only possible with BSV, as other blockchains, including Bitcoin Core (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH) have severely limited their capabilities by introducing unnecessary – and often unwanted – code limitations.

It’s important to point out that “transactions” does not necessarily refer only to financial transactions. A transaction can be any type of communication, including data transfer, contract assignations and even picture transmissions. The benefit is that all of the transactions become part of an immutable, permanent record that is available to relevant individuals at all times from anywhere.

In keeping with the model that a blockchain needs to be made for business activities, CoinGeek had recently held a contest to inspire the creation of a real-world use case that has practical benefits for businesses. That contest resulted in a prize of over $6 million awarded to Tokenized, an organization that was created to develop smart contracts for the BSV blockchain. These smart contracts can be issued for stocks, bonds, derivatives and even concert tickets and include a feature not available with any other smart contract system.

BSV supporters understand Bitcoin and understand the importance of creating a solution that allows for adherence to legal and regulatory guidelines. No business will adopt any solution that tries to skirt regulations and BSV ensures that businesses can build solutions with confidence that they are operating within regulatory frameworks. Tokenized ensures that this same mantra is carried, providing a solution that is regulation-friendly and which doesn’t try to violate laws.

Out of the primary blockchain solutions available, only BSV is capable of large-scale operations. It is the only network that has successfully mined blocks of 103 megabytes, and greater, and is working toward blocks in gigabytes and terabytes. Both BTC and ETH have already acknowledged scaling issues, which means neither can offer the volume capabilities found with BSV.

New projects are being introduced to the BSV blockchain on a regular basis that are designed to show its capabilities and flexibility. New payment solutions are coming, as well as supply chain management solutions. There is also Centbee, which has received an investment from CoinGeek founder Calvin Ayre, a crypto company that is proactively expanding adoption by merchants and consumers in South Africa and across the world.

BSV is helping to ensure that the original design – and purpose – of Bitcoin remains intact. Over the past several years, many individuals have felt that they knew more than Bitcoin’s creator and have completely changed the definition and scope of digital currency. All this time, a group of individuals has remained determined to see the original Bitcoin succeed, understanding that the others are not capability of fulfilling Bitcoin’s goals. It is because of this that BSV is keeping the vision alive.

Here are the applications deployed for BSV to date (many others are under development)

Link: https://i.ibb.co/3pRtZNJ/Active-Apps-BSV-release-05-2019.jpg

BitBoss releases javascript library for Bitcoin SV wallets

There’s another exciting new release for the Bitcoin SV (BSV) blockchain. BitBoss https://www.bitboss.io/ , a company that specializes in blockchain gaming innovations, has released Keyring, a new collection javascript libraries for BSV.

The Keyring libraries https://bitboss.io/keyring , hosted on GitHub https://github.com/BitbossIO/keyring and at npm at @keyring/bsv, will help developers to code apps that can create and sign BSV transactions, allowing them to easily create new wallets. Alex Shore, chief technical officer of BitBoss, told CoinGeek:

“We built Keyring for our own needs while developing our online gaming ecosystem that runs on Bitcoin SV, however we plan to enhance this library in an effort to help the entire Bitcoin SV community of developers. All contributions of code, feedback, and feature requests are welcome. We will be using GitHub issues to track work and will monitor it closely.”

Keyring has been designed to work with BSV first and foremost, and it uses all of BSV’s functionality, including support for larger OP_Return sizes. Their website states, “With KeyRing it is very easy to add new op returns and script templates because of how the library is designed to work with multiple chains.”

This new addition to the BSV development community demonstrates once again the maturity and collaboration present in the Bitcoin industry. BitBoss are first and foremost game developers though, and their website has sneak peeks into several gaming innovations they are currently working on, including blockchain-based slots, lotteries and a sportsbook.

This is a timely new resource for BSV, considering the Bitcoin Association recently announced the unveiling of the Bitcoin SV Scaling Test Network (STN). Developers and businesses now have easy to use code to help develop new applications with, and a professional test environment to fully stress test those applications for their business needs. Considering Keyring was built as a part of gaming development already, this is a perfect combination for gambling applications that need wallet applications tested on a massive scale.

This also adds to the education tools already released by Money Button. Their CEO, Ryan X. Charles, announced a suite of resources for developers to learn from, which has expanded to over a dozen articles since its release in March 2019.

If you’re a developer who’s interested in using these new Keyring resources, you might be interested to join the upcoming CoinGeek Toronto scaling conference as well. Winners of the first BSV hackathon will be announced, and you can register now to be there. Save money on your entry too by paying with Bitcoin SV via Coingate.

Kronoverse gaming company, CryptoFights players battle and investor its main Calvin Ayre, who combined the SV[BSV] bitcoin blockchain

Kronoverse, an independent game development company behind the popular 3D fighting game CryptoFights on the blockchain, has secured a leading investment fund from online game entrepreneur Ayre Group and CoinGeek founder Calvin Aire. This investment follows last month's announcement that Kronoverse would use an SV blockchain (BSV) to drive the network layer of the CryptoFights game. I am a financial sponsor and key funder of BSV's financing through my investment, media and CoinGeek activities. I am very excited about the investment that will significantly increase the use and volume of BSV blockchains.

The Kronoverse team ambitiously introduces blockchain technology into the game for the benefit of all players. Installs an old mysterious stadium to run CryptoFights games with blockchain technology, and allows players to engage in dreadful challenges ranging from one-to-three matches against three on Android, iOS and PC. Kronoverse used the special features of the BSV blockchain as auditable data books and auditable data storage networks. The CryptoFights game will use BSV blockchains in different ways:

● The game uses BSV blockchains within the network layer.
● The platform records online game battles in the BSV blockchain and recordings are permanently accessible.
● Kronoverse develops a custom block explorer to examine previous games and live games ("Battle Explorer" is better). Players can use the data from the BSV blockchain to play games they have played before. You can see him again.
● It is based on a digital signature string very similar to bit wedge, and the game will use a digital signature string because it must connect the player's movements to generate a permanent audit trail of the game.

"Satoshi Vision", named after Satoshi Nakamoto, founder of Bitcoin, restores the original protocol used for coins, maintains it stable and allows for large-scale use. Like Kronoverse, BSV has a scalable roadmap that allows online games to use blockchains in innovative ways. In the past, BSV's block channel has set the world's largest record of 128 MB, not just one of two public block channels. (In comparison, Bitcoin core BTC has a small block block of 1 MB.) With a 128 MB block, BSV can record more than 800 transactions per second, demonstrate its ability to record large amounts of data files (e. g. game videos and high definition photos) and perform massive bit-based chain scaling. In addition, the SV Bit Coin will prepare a terabyte block (1MB) ready to be used per gigabyte (1,000 MB) and capable of handling millions of billing transactions per second and even larger data files over time. As well as global data for all industries.

Adam Klinger, President of Kronoverse, explains: "We learned about BSV and we worked on different block chain platforms until we saw that what we needed was implemented in BSV, I just wanted to investigate. BSV has a large-scale scaling plan that can manage large amounts of data files for the data records we want to use, excellent development tools designed by the community and audit trails. Thanks to Calvin Aire's investment, we are able to make CryptoFights even more powerful with the BSV blockchain. "Thanks to the innovation in block game, Kronoverse can also manage electronic sports. Blockchain - The available movement tracking allows for unlimited match play by analyzing the movements of all players registered in the blockchain. Blockchain technology will create the effect of eradicating cheaters, as it will allow players to be honest, transparent, responsive and playable. This feature will allow CryptoFights to dominate its competitors and innovate in the e-sport sector.

Calvin Ayre added: "I like online games and beating coins. It's really impressive that Kronoverse combined these two. I was impressed by the fact that the company quickly recognized that the original Bitcoin was returning to the current version of the Bitcoin SV, which could do a lot of scaling. I am convinced that Kronoverse will bring a big explosion and that other online gaming companies are also encouraged to rely on Bitcoin SV. "

Iire's investment is part of a large-scale collaboration. nChain, a global leader in blockchain technology consulting, research and development, will provide Kronoverse with technical consulting services and a broad portfolio of intellectual property portfolios. Like Ier's work on CoinGeek, nChain is another key financial sponsor of Bitcoin SV. Jimmy Nguyen, founding president of the Bitcoin Association (Bitcoin SV's leading global economic ecosystem) and Chairman of nChain's Strategy Advisory Board, said:

"Kronoverse is a. As a good player, the company uses the BSV blockchain creatively to move to the next level. We look forward to working with Kronoverse to showcase BSV technology for online gaming in the future and would like to invite more companies to BitCoin SV, the only high-capacity, scalable blockchain.

Craig Wright and Calvin Ayre make nice with a crypto exchange
A week after BSV was delisted from multiple exchanges, the cryptocurrency’s champions invest in one. Building BSV as an enterprise platform is the goal.

Calvin Ayre, Craig Wright and the Bitcoin SV cryptocurrency they champion are popular with at least one exchange. Ayre’s Coingeek has teamed up with Drive Markets, a new institutional and individual crypto exchange, and will make a multimillion-dollar investment in the company. Wright’s nChain will supply blockchain consulting services and access to its intellectual property.

As Modern Consensus reported, Wright and Ayre earned the animosity of much of the cryptocurrency community last week after threatening to sue, and in at least one case actually suing, people who have called Wright’s claim to be Bitcoin creator Satoshi Nakamoto a lie. As a result, Bitcoin SV (BSV) was delisted from several major exchanges, including Binance.

At the same time it disclosed the investment, Drive Markets’ announced that its Drive Pay, a real-time remittance and settlement network for crypto and fiat currencies, will be run on a Bitcoin SV (BSV) ledger, and will use BSV coins as a bridge currency for liquidity, according to a press release. The company said that Drive Pay is a cross-blockchain platform targeting traders in capital markets and the foreign exchange market. It has its own utility token, Drive Coin (DRV), launched on April 3.

Drive’s release makes clear that the investment and partnership is all about boosting BSV as an enterprise (or permissioned) blockchain platform, at least for Ayre and Wright. In fact, it flat-out says it: “Ayre… expects the undisclosed investment which is in the multiple seven figures, to provide a significant boost to BSV enterprise usage and transaction volume.”

Drive says its support of BSV is because of its scalability. The release also takes several swipes at Bitcoin (BTC) in its Bitcoin Core appellation in this regard, noting that BSV just created a pair of 128 MB blocks which can handle more than 800 transactions per second. And, apparently, is preparing for gigabyte and terabyte blocks. “For comparison, Bitcoin Core BTC has a small 1MB block cap,” it added.

Ayre is quoted as saying “Drive recognizes the original Bitcoin vision, now back in the form of Bitcoin SV, works at a massive scale. I look forward to seeing the Drive Pay network process huge amounts of transactions on the BSV blockchain, and further unleash the true power of Bitcoin.”

Drive has partnered with MetaTrader, which has a trading platform popular with forex traders, and First Data, a database provider and consulting firm focused on the finance, technology and energy markets. Drive Markets promises, “a crypto trading experience synonymous with forex trading.”

More information on the amazing abilities of the unique BitcoinSV blockchain applied to gaming.

New investment unlocks unlimited possibilities for Kronoverse
Gaming on the Bitcoin SV (BSV) blockchain is about to go to a new level. Kronoverse Corp, the indie game developer behind the CryptoFights 3D fighting game, has announced it’s secured a lead investment from Calvin Ayre, online gaming entrepreneur and founder of both the Ayre Group and CoinGeek. We reached out to Kronoverse CEO Adam Kling to ask some questions about what this means for the future of his company.

The soon to be released CryptoFights game will be a big beneficiary of the new investment. We asked what kind of game the public can look forward to. Kling responded:

“CryptoFights is influenced a lot from competitive games such as Mortal Kombat, Dota2, and Leage of Legends. Gamers should take notice because CryptoFights is a game that has real economics attached to it. You can wager on battles, you can earn items to become more powerful, sell or trade those items, replay past battles, and much more coming soon.”

Kronoverse’s platform, now built for the Bitcoin SV (BSV) blockchain, will benefit hugely from the new partnership as well. The development team is building new solutions for eSports as well, and Ayre’s involvement will speed that up. “It has also allowed us to pursue our grand vision of creating a platform for developers to unlock incredible eSport features in their game,” Kling told us.

But what will that mean for eSports? Quite a lot, as it turns out. “The Kronoverse platform can combine the many fragmented components of the current eSports market into one unifying platform for game developers,” the CEO said. “Things such as advertising, wagering, and universal marketplaces can facilitate new economies around games that are not solely controlled by any one developer.”

Gamers will see the benefits too, with new features previously only dreamed of in the gaming world. “It can also create dynamic worlds (i.e. The gaming multiverse) that only exist with blockchain technology,” Kling explained. “Things such as evolving items where your game item has a historical identity that can evolve over time into a more powerful item or when a section of a game can only be unlocked when an event happens on the blockchain (such as when your team wins a tournament or you complete a quest).”

All of this is only possible on the BSV blockchain, where unlimited blockchain scaling is a unique reality. “BSV unlocks a lot of possibilities when you grasp what it really is,” Kling explained. “This simplifies development of many objectives depending on what you’re after.”

nChain, the chief development team behind BSV, will also collaborate with Kronoverse as part of the deal. This collaboration will give the game developers a step up on completing their work. Of the collaboration, Kling said, “We are interested in the patent portfolio and what we can utilize in our platform development. Things such as identity management, smart contracts, efficiency improvements and much more.”

Exciting new game features, and the ability to potentially wager on matches as they happen sounds like a fantastic time. This investment deal looks to be much more than just another money injection into a promising company; it will unlock possibilities that none of us could think to ask for, and it’s only possible on Bitcoin SV.

News BSV !

Bitcoin SV Scaling Test Network is open for business
The Bitcoin SV Scaling Test Network (STN) is now open for business. Enterprises and developers who want to test Bitcoin’s scaling limits for their applications and services are invited to use the STN, and contribute to the future of an unbounded Bitcoin blockchain.

The STN is an initiative of Bitcoin Association’s Bitcoin SV Node project, developed by nChain with funding from CoinGeek; transaction traffic is provided by the Satoshi Shotgun (Professional Stress Test) team. This global public network is continuously loaded with transactions to enable BSV developers to test under heavy load. Interested businesses and developers globally can join and use the STN to test Bitcoin applications and systems that require large transaction volumes or large data capacity.

Big scaling is what separates Bitcoin SV (BSV) from other blockchain projects, and why businesses should build applications on BSV. Named for the “Satoshi Vision” of Bitcoin’s creator Satoshi Nakamoto, BSV is the only project following the original Bitcoin protocol and vision – which commits to massive scaling of the blockchain so Bitcoin can become the world’s new money used by billions of people, and the global data ledger for enterprises.

That is why Bitcoin SV is building scaling capacity for not today, but the future. In the last six months the BSV blockchain has already increased its capacity from 20 to 400 transactions per second. The BSV Scaling Test Network has already been tested at significantly higher volumes handling 1200 transactions per second sustained continuously over a 7-day period in March 2019. Last month’s test results for BSV are therefore close to Visa and MasterCard payment network capacity, which handle close to 1,700 transactions per second (15 million transactions per day). By February 2020, BSV is expected to scale to significantly exceed Visa and Mastercard average transaction capacity. Beyond then, its future scaling plans will provide transaction capacity far exceeding anything in existence today by removing any default block size limit on the BSV blockchain. The BSV blockchain can handle more than just payments, but also token, smart contract, Internet of Things and many other types of data transactions for the world’s enterprises.

Steve Shadders, Director of Engineering at nChain and Technical Director of the Bitcoin SV Node project, comments: “In the coming months, we plan to increase the maximum block size of the Scaling Test Network to a massive 10 GB (10,000 megabytes) so that it can grow to tens of thousands of transactions per second without needing further consensus upgrades. We are moving past the era of filling up blocks and stepping into the realm of boundless growth. Our goal is not to push the limits, but to prove there are no limits.”

Using the STN provides many benefits for companies and developers. The network will provide a continuous and varying supply of transaction traffic, so services will be continuously battle-tested. Businesses can learn performance bottlenecks of their applications early and rectify them before those loads are reached in live environments. By using the STN, enterprises can give their clients assurance that they are keeping up with BSV scaling requirements. To that end, Bitcoin Association and the Bitcoin SV Node team plan later this year to create an STN Certification program that will enable a service to claim independent certification of its resilience.

The STN will also have a dedicated support team to assist developers and enterprises with questions. BSV Node developer Brad Kristensen has been appointed to the role of STN Operations Manager. Brad has a long history with Bitcoin, including mining as far back as the GPU era, as well as being a senior developer with nChain, the global leader in advisory, research and development of blockchain technologies.

Jimmy Nguyen, Founding President of Bitcoin Association and Chair of nChain’s Strategic Advisory Board, states: “Big enterprises need a blockchain that can scale to handle their big transaction volume needs. The original Bitcoin, now back in the form of Bitcoin SV, always had that power, and we are now unlocking its massive scaling capability. We encourage businesses around the world to build applications on BSV, and are happy to provide the Scaling Test Network as a resource and safe environment for growing the BSV ecosystem.”

Why Bitcoin SV considers itself the only real bitcoin
To understand Bitcoin SV, it’s important to understand three key assumptions that underlie its creation and much of its support.

The original bitcoin whitepaper written by Satoshi Nakamoto is perfect.
Any deviations from the whitepaper can only introduce flaws.
There can only be one true bitcoin, and all others will fail.
As Ayre, Wright and many Bitcoin SV supporters explain, BSV was created specifically because the other coins bearing bitcoin’s name — first BTC and then BCH — became flawed after deviating from the bitcoin whitepaper.

As one SV supporter explains:

“In August last year Bitcoin died on the BTC chain with the introduction of Segwit. It survived in the form of Bitcoin Cash until yesterday when it was killed off again by Bitcoin ABC. If Bitcoin SV had not stood it’s (sic) ground and preserved the rules of Bitcoin in SV, yesterday would have been the last day Bitcoin existed in this world.”

Under this interpretation, the first big deviation occurred when the bitcoin community failed to decisively adopt a larger block size, and instead opted to “tinker it to death” in Ayre’s words, by pursuing scaling solutions such as Segwit and the Lightning Network.

It was at this time that Bitcoin Cash is believed to have become the real bitcoin.

But soon Bitcoin Cash also deviated from Satoshi’s vision, when its ABC group of developers proposed an update that was thought to violate the rules laid down by the whitepaper. This quickly sparked debates in the community, and the personalities on what has since become the Bitcoin SV side of the fence eventually proposed their own alternative update. There was no clear agreement on which proposal should be the one to pass, and neither side agreed to recant their development roadmap.

This then led to the second major schism. The Bitcoin ABC proposal is now known as Bitcoin Cash, while the whitepaper purists are known as Bitcoin Satoshi’s Vision (BSV).

What's the difference between Bitcoin SV and bitcoin?
Bitcoin SV is a fork of Bitcoin Cash. Bitcoin Cash began life in 2017 as a fork of bitcoin. Bitcoin SV was originally known as Bitcoin Cash SV, but has since dropped “Cash” from the name.

What's the difference between Bitcoin SV and Bitcoin Cash?
Bitcoin SV is a fork of Bitcoin Cash. This means they share the same history up until the date of the fork, which was November 15, 2018. They are now separate blockchains with separate cryptocurrencies.

Is Craig Wright (CSW) Satoshi Nakamoto?
In 2016 Craig Wright (also known as CSW) claimed he was the main individual behind the Satoshi Nakamoto alias. He presented evidence both publicly and privately to support his claim. While the evidence he offered to the public has been largely rejected and heavily scrutinized, a handful of individuals who have been shown evidence in private by Craig Wright support his claim.

Dr. Craig Wright discusses personal device security on blockchain

nChain Chief Scientist Dr. Craig Wright has addressed the scope for more effective personal device security through cryptography and the blockchain, in a presentation at a prestigious industry conference in London.

Dr. Wright presented his thesis at the International Conference on Information and Computer Technologies (ICICT) 2019, to a packed room of leading academics at Brunel University.

In the presentation, he explained that cryptographic solutions to personal device security could deliver substantial improvements in security, reducing the scope for device hacking and providing more effective defenses for smartphones and tablets.

According to Dr. Wright, one of the primary advantages of blockchain device security is the ability to record immutable logs, effectively preventing hackers from operating anonymously.

Hackers rely on the ability to delete logs, covering their tracks to allow deeper access into internal systems—a process which often unfolds over a protracted time period. This is made impossible with logs immutably recorded on the blockchain, which can be used to trace the origins of hacks to a device, with no opportunity for cover-up or data manipulation.

He also explained how private/public key pairs could be used in ECDSA personal device security, robustly protecting against unauthorized access through multiple authentication factors. This could be adapted to allow devices such as laptops and smartphones to automatically verify and authenticate users based on blockchain data.

Dr. Wright explained that this could even be achieved without an exchange of data, eliminating the potential for ‘man in the middle’ style hacks and eavesdropping through encryption and decryption.

Many of the features raised in the presentation can be implemented with standard functions, with OP_RETURN transactions an example of how this type of personal device security can be executed on the bitcoin blockchain.

Brunel University becomes the latest high profile institution to host Dr. Wright, coinciding with another recent presentation at the University of Oxford. His recent presentations have covered topics including how legal contracts can be handled on the blockchain and the scalability of bitcoin to 3 billion transactions/second.

Roger Ver should laugh us while we are discussing comparison between him and real Satoshi Nakamoto. This ecosystem is created by the Satoshi and acting behalf of Satoshi is not right in my opinion.

You want to compare a carrot against a genius?! Curious image Roll Eyes

Where did you read that it's only for Satoshi? Think of "the bin / the garbage can" cans invented by Mr. Eugène Poubelle (=the bin) in 1884, at first it was only for him, then for his neighbourhood, then for the city of Paris in France and then for the Netherlands, Belgium, United Kingdom and other country... Many criticized these "useless" buckets and finally others adopted, almost 100 years later there was another innovation from the bins, even patented ones, including the selective sorting still unknown in many countries... and then a bin is very useful, it even creates jobs and makes the streets clean and sometimes allows the poor like me to eat in my childhood. Have you ever eaten from the bin can? So you are missing something important in your life experience. The idea of Bitcoin is like the garbage can, it is great, useful and evolutive, patented, creates employment.... It is logical that its legitimate inventor should decide on the path to follow for his invention and how to introduce cities and the world to it.

Quote from: Satoshi Nakamoto=https://medium.com/@craig_10243/the-immovable-8aa39ee04515

Many people in the bucket shop, sorry, “crypto currency exchange” industry want to see me gone.

The Church of the immovable Ladder
Unfortunately, at least for them, this isn’t going to happen. It’s not going to happen now. It’s not going to happen in the decade. It’s not going to happen in the next 20 years. You see, I’m here to stay. What people fail to understand is that I do not write patents covering bitcoin. What (IP) we giveaway on BSV is protected by patents that equally apply to any other system… but are no longer close to being free. The distinction is that other systems will need to pay. By the end of this year I hope that we will have around 1,000 patents published. More importantly, the initial patent families should place us in advance of any other player in the industry. You see, we don’t publish straightaway. Others do, but we don’t because that would give away what we’re doing.

So, while a few industry players are trying to learn how to swim in this pond and inventing single use limited patents and intellectual property we create new technology that will radically change everything.

In fact, I see some of the patents that we’re developing leading to thousands of applications each.

So the truth of the matter is that I am not going anywhere.

I won’t be out of this industry in 20 years time. You see I don’t intend to retire. You have no idea how much we have been doing in the background. As you have been hiding and calling me names, I’ve been building and creating. In a couple years time we will have a system that can take the entire world’s global commerce and every other blockchain and run it without missing a heartbeat. More importantly, we have ways to stop all the not so fun systems, the scams in the bucket shops. I expect them to cry, to call foul to do anything in their power to stop me but the fact is that they missed their opportunity. Bitcoin is here to stay. Real bitcoin, not the temporary fraudulent system that people try and call bitcoin (BTC) but bitcoin. You see, bitcoin is a stable protocol. If you change the protocol, you change it from being bitcoin.

Please bet against me.

Pretty pretty please. If you are someone like a Binance supporter, please bet every cent you have, and add leverage with all that you can possibly get and bet more. I want you to, because I want you to be begging on the streets with all the criminals that are going to be out of jobs. I want you to learn, criminality does not pay.

“If you trust in yourself. . .and believe in your dreams. . .and follow your star. . . you’ll still get beaten by people who spent their time working hard and learning things and weren’t so lazy.”
Terry Pratchett, The Wee Free Men
I know this seems a little bit strange for a few people, but bitcoin started in its current iteration in 2007. That is when I knew that I could create the system that we have now. By the way, that system is not the fraudulent system that some people call bitcoin that is traded as BTC. That broken busted (BTC — core) thing is nothing like bitcoin.

In 2007, there was no housing crisis yet. That came later. So you see, although everything had been set in 2007, it wasn’t until 2008 that things started to come to a head. At that stage, bitcoin was basically complete. So, I’m sorry to “burst your little bubble” but bitcoin has nothing to do with the collapse of Lehman Bros nor with the subsequent bailout. Unfortunately, that was badly timed. The reality is bitcoin is not anti-bank, it is not anti-government and in fact it is not even anti-central bank. Most importantly, it can’t be made to be.

One thing bitcoin was created for is to end the manipulation of financial systems. This was never what we see in the west but rather criminal manipulation. It was designed to ensure that Web Money, Liberty Reserve and a group of criminals associated with things such as the Russian Business Network (RBN) were the real target. In 2007, the RBN had a number of ISPs pull the plug. Others such as RX Ltd Trading a bit longer. They survived because of the growth of Liberty Reserve and associated money-laundering organisations. Bitcoin was created as a means to ensure an immutable audit trail. In time, this will be linked to logins and much more. To start, it provides an anti-money-laundering trail that cannot be altered. This is enough to ensure privacy while also ensuring that anonymity cannot exist.

The reality of bitcoin is that it creates a system that stops many of the problems we’ve had in the world. Right now, the Russian government avoids sanctions. They are building their own network but the truth of the matter is that they still rely on SWIFT. The big problem here is that SWIFT is terribly insecure and very simple to bypass. So, imagine a system that is immutable that even governments can’t bypass. One that pulls them into order. One that stops criminal activity as it can be traced, tracked and those violators brought to justice.

“SWIFT is the electronic bloodstream of the global financial system, cancelling Putin’s credit card could have far reaching consequences for the Russian economy as Iran discovered when scores of its financial institutions were expelled from SWIFT in 2012.”

Mark Dubowitz, the executive director of the Foundation for Defense of Democracies
This is the true use and benefit of bitcoin. It’s not some anarchist idea of avoiding the state or some other stupid utopia, it is a system that brings everyone into a global alignment or isolates them in the way that North Korea was isolated. In time, as capitalism throughout the world grows, the benefits of compound growth will leave countries like Iran and North Korea more and more isolated. They will stagnate and either come into the mainstream dropping their totalitarian dictatorships or wither in power allowing people to take action against their leaders.

More importantly, bitcoin also provides an immutable platform. A payment system that is honest and a means of disseminating truth. Not something like the left media from WikiLeaks that is funded by Russia and is designed purely to attack capitalism, but the truth. Not some post-Hegelianist Utopia and post-modernist anti-scientific meme but discoverable truth.

In the coming decades, technology in the West will become so cheap and so widespread that a tablet connected to the metanet will be able to be dropped over a country like North Korea cheaper than the paper drops in Vietnam. More importantly, these tablets in the future will be able to communicate directly to the people of that country in their own language. We are coming to a world where the dissemination of truth will not be stopped. Not by partisan anti-corporate and anticapitalist organisations like WikiLeaks and not by government.

Liberty Reserve was many times more decentralised than an organisation like Binance could ever hope to achieve. Liberty Reserve was connected to the Hawala network and a series of distributors and countries including Nigeria. Overall, they had over 30,000 input and exit points for Fiat currency.

They were able to get criminals on and off of the Liberty dollar or Liberty euro network through tens of thousands of distributed systems. Yet Liberty Reserve was brought down.

The truth of the matter is that criminal groups are always “centralised” in some way.

Bucket shop exchanges that are designed to manipulate markets, create wash volume and to generally facilitate frauds, always have someone behind them and those people can go to prison. Liberty Reserve was based out of Costa Rica and was outside of the treaty agreements with the USA. Yet they have been taken down. Liberty Reserve operated a distributed network of tens of thousands of Fiat input and output systems that left no logs, and yet the people involved have been put in prison.

This is why I created bitcoin. It’s not a protest against government, it’s a method that over time will replace SWIFT with something that cannot be easily bypassed by criminals or even governments.

If you ever wonder why people attack my reputation, it’s because they are the criminals and they seek to ensure that their illegal operations, bucket shops, illegal gambling, drug sales and more continue to persist. Right now, organisations involved in the “crypto currency” industry are predominantly seeking to make money through assisting and enabling money-laundering. Luckily, the nature of a blockchain is such that all of this can be used as an evidentiary trail for a long time.

So the drastic irony here is those who have on-boarded themselves to this industry have failed to understand the purpose of bitcoin. It’s honest money. If you want to commit crime on bitcoin, a token scripted within bitcoin, a system that acts within bitcoin is a Fiat marker, then you have to understand that you have an immutable evidence trail associated with you. Those exchanges who think they can get away with trading don’t understand this very well. They are easy to take down and their assets easy to confiscate. The illicit and illegal bucket shops are about to end. The wash trading and crimes that replicate the USENET penny share schemes and pink sheet web IPOs schemes of the 90s differ in blockchain in that a record, or evidence cannot be deleted.

Welcome to law.

Welcome to court.

You’re about to find out why I created bitcoin and yes I am Satoshi Nakamoto. I created it to stop all of the global scams. I created bitcoin to start to bring order into the norm. Thank you for helping it grow and in your ignorance giving me everything I need to stop you.

In time, CZ will be gone (or in prison). These fools hate the idea of a single ledger, a single set of books, they want to have more fraud than Enron could do in a millennium.

In time, Roger Ver (Pipe bomb manufacturer https://www.justice.gov/archive/criminal/cybercrime/press-releases/2002/verPlea.htm) will be gone (or in prison).

And, I will be here.

This is my industry, it is my creation and I will be a part of it for as long as it exists.

Thanks to Jerry David, wer5lcy, Will Devine, tonesnotes, and Joel Dalais.

https://coingeek.com/jimmy-nguyen-bitcoin-sv-is-about-a-viable-blockchain-ecosystem

Bitcoin Association Founding President Jimmy Nguyen is often found globe-trotting, and spreading the good word about Bitcoin. He recently attended the Paris Blockchain Summit 2019, and while there, he sat down with Erhan Korhaliller, founder of EAK Digital, to discuss the history of Bitcoin, and its rebirth as Bitcoin SV (BSV).

Nguyen began by explaining what went wrong with the Bitcoin protocol, and specifically the hijacking of it by developers like Blockstream. They pursued what has become Bitcoin Core (BTC), which has resulted in consistently high transaction costs anytime the blockchain sees reasonably high volumes. Then once Bitcoin Cash forked from it in an attempt to return to the Satoshi Whitepaper, the Bitcoin ABC team decided they wanted to make changes to the protocol, and eventually ended up with BCHABC.

Nguyen explains, “Should the Bitcoin protocol constantly be subject to developer experimentation?… our answer is no! The Bitcoin protocol has everything it needs to grow into a massively scaled blockchain.” BSV was born as a result, in an effort to return to that original vision.

Asked about the plans for BSV and what’s in the works, Nguyen lays out the scaling plan as it should have been all along:

“Later this year, we’re going to 512MB [blocks], and then we’re going to 1-2GB, on a path to one day a vision for terabyte sized blocks, so that our vision is ultimately the bitcoin blockchain is the world’s data ledger, that powers also the internet. So it’s not just a payment transactional system, it is the data ledge for all world enterprise.”

That scaling is necessary, he explains, to gain the interest of big enterprises, who have not shown a big interest in BTC with its smaller blocks.

They also discussed the new FloatSV, which will look to be the first BSV-based exchange with a goal of delivering real world assets, and avoid many of the pitfalls that other exchanges have fallen into of allowing investors to gamble on total gambles and scams.

Touching on a hot topic recently, Korhaliller asked if Nguyen believes Dr. Craig Wright really is Satoshi. Although he is, Nguyen points out that it really doesn’t matter if Wright is the man himself, because the promise really is in the technology of BSV.

Regardless, he defended Wright’s strategy of taking his trolls to court, because we all have the right to not be called a fraud and prove it not the case. “He’s decided to take a stand. Not everyone agrees with that, but I respect his decision to invoke his own personal legal rights, just like any of us would have the right to do if we chose to invoke them,” Nguyen explained.

When the discussion turned to the recent actions of some exchanges, choosing to delist BSV over Wright’s reputation, Nguyen commented on how sad it is for the larger digital currency industry. He pointed out that if the same thing happened with Elon Musk, there was no way Tesla would be delisted by major exchanges. It unfortunately shows how immature some of the industry still is.

Those days will come to an end, Nguyen remarks. Exchanges that treat cryptocurrencies like a casino will die out as one asset emerges to dominate the industry, and regulators start to step in. When asked what he would say to CZ, the founder of Binance, Nguyen responded, “I would say thanks for the business you’re sending to other exchanges who actually believe in Bitcoin SV.”

For any fans of BSV who might be worried about recent news, Nguyen points out that this is a long game, and they bought in for the vision. “We are not trying to pump and dump like other coins do. We’re not promising you’re going to get rich quick… We care about building an actual, viable, valuable blockchain ecosystem,” Nguyen said.

They then covered a few rapid fire questions. Nguyen conservatively guesses that BSV can reach $500-$700 per coin by the end of 2020. He didn’t want to guess at a total market cap for the industry, due to so many coins inflating the value with worthless propositions. He believes “Bitcoin can subsume the internet,” if allowed to. And finally, “Craig Wright can actually be a very nice person. Deep down underneath that grizzly exterior of his, there’s actually kind of a sweetheart in there.”

Korhaliller ended by asking what happens to BSV if the Lightning Network somehow helps BTC scale. Nguyen noted that it’s a bit of a trick question, since that’s not a scaling solution, and doesn’t represent what Bitcoin should be. “While other blockchain projects might succeed in parts, here or there, I don’t think anyone has anywhere as near of a grand Satoshi Vision as we do,” he concluded.

Bitcoin SV – everything you need to know
If you are familiar with the crypto space, you must have heard this story of epic resistance. In November 2018, Bitcoin Cash had a hard fork of the network – a radical upgrade splitting the blockchain in two. Two parties representing each side of the chain clashed in the social media war, possibly leading to the market crash.

The two sides were Bitcoin SV (Bitcoin Satoshi Vision or BSV) and Bitcoin Cash ABC (BCH ABC). BCH ABC, led by Roger Ver a.k.a. The Bitcoin Jesus was sticking to the position of not implementing any radical changes to the Bitcoin Cash blockchain. Bitcoin SV and their leader Craig Wright, on the other hand, were promoting increasing the block size from 32Mb to 128Mb.

After the hard fork, both teams started block generation – each of the sides wanted to produce as many blocks as possible to increase the hash rate. In the end, Bitcoin Cash ABC managed to score more and won this battle. However, the hash war was not over just yet…
These are the stories of the past. What we have now are two blockchains. The holders of BCH have two balances – in BCHABC (now Bitcoin Cash) and Bitcoin SV. We have already released a guide on how to get your post-fork coins in Guarda wallets.

Bitcoin SV now exists as a separate entity

I-CHAIN - The Revolution of Digital Advertising

Quote from: el kaka22 on March 28, 2019, 04:46:40 PM

Any blockchain that is not the bitcoin blockchain itself is a very big scam to me and I just see it as a way people are trying to make free money all in the name of achieving satoshi vision of blockchain, bitcoin cash was the first coin that came up with the idea that bitcoin is no longer following satoshi vision since segwit was going to be implemented then, but why is bitcoin cash now, nowhere to be found because it was just a means to get free money.

Other than contributing to total crypto space's marketcap, I am not seeing anything positive with these things to crypto community. Due to continuous pumping and dumping, like XRP BCH is trying to find a good place among investors and traders but not sure how much successful it is in terms of having continuous institutional investors.

Outrightly portraying bitcoin hardforks as scam is quite hash in my opinion.. And mind due bitcoin cash has not done too badly lately.. In a market where Eth lost almost 90 percent of its value bitcoin cash in my opinion has not performed too badly..

Bitcoin SV and the roadmap to Genesis

The Bitcoin SV (BSV) project continues to do what no other blockchain thought possible—scale on chain in a massive way that puts it in line with what is seen by the world’s major credit card companies. The project has been steadily working on different aspects of the “Roadmap to Genesis” and Steve Shadders has issued an update on the progress. To say that BSV is capable of doing what no other blockchain can do would be an understatement of epic proportion.

According to the latest information, the roadmap from last August until the second quarter of this year has seen all of the items fulfilled, or close to being completed, except for one, parallel block validation. This was put on the back burner in favor of other network improvements that were expected to provide a greater return on investment.

Coming soon will be a network upgrade called Quasar. It is currently scheduled for July 24 and centers on increased scaling capabilities. According to Shadders, “We have previously signalled an intent to raise the cap to 512MB however after consultation with the Bitcoin Association (the owner of the Bitcoin SV project) and miners representing a significant majority of hash rate it has been decided that the Bitcoin SV software will implement a default of 2GB in July.“

The logic behind the increased default is simple. By raising the cap, and allowing miners to set a limit of 512MB, the network will be able to see more scaling as it becomes necessary without having to introduce additional upgrades or forks.

The next big upgrade following Quasar is scheduled for February 4, 2020. It will provide a number of protocol restoration changes designed to return the network to the original Bitcoin protocol. It is aptly called Genesis and is scheduled for “11 years, 1 month and 1 day after the original Genesis block.”

The announcement continues, “The Genesis upgrade will also address scaling. We believe that by late in 2019 the Bitcoin SV node software will have implemented all of the safety mechanisms required to allow us to eliminate the block size cap altogether and let miners manage it without intervention from developers. So long as those changes are completed we intend to bring the planned date for allowing unlimited block size forward by almost a year and lift the cap completely in the Genesis upgrade.”

Unlike blockchains such as Bitcoin Cash that allowed developers to make all the decisions, BSV is publishing data in order to receive community feedback before moving forward. This creates a completely transparent network that is truly decentralized and built by the community, not by a few individuals who want to control the entire ecosystem.

Maybe if BSV holders would stop threatening to sue their critics the coin would be taken more seriously by the community. With the antics of its proponents, this coin will be lucky to remain in the top 20 at the end of the year.

Satoshi Nakamoto is an amalgamation of 富永仲基 (Tominaga Nakamoto) and Ash Ketchum (サトシ; Satoshi).

The name wasn’t something that I spent months and months on deciding, and it doesn’t mean anything related to what you see on the wikis. Rather, it was an attempt at privacy.

I’d met Tim May back in the 80s when I was involved with DECUS under a number of SunOS groups. There were of course the black sheep groups such as the cypherpunks. For a start, I understand that anarchy is a utopian pipe-dream. Unfortunately, when you get groups of people who have little interaction with the real world, they are starting to believe stories and myths of a society that can exist without order. Worse, they start to believe in computerised order, the singularity, and that code is law. A few of us got on, but for the most part I was ridiculed by people who refused to understand that risk is a probabilistic ideal and can never be perfected and removed. More importantly, I was ridiculed by people with no idea of people or society.

There is a lot to be said for a classical Western education.

The moniker, Satoshi Nakamoto, was simply a way of being able to work and have some privacy in my life.

It was both a homage to Tominaga Nakamoto and a play on the second. The Economist had an article in 1988, and it featured the phoenix of rising money; in order to make some fun out of it, I used Ash (aka Satoshi) from the Pokemon fame.

Funny enough, most of the lawyers I speak to get it. When you actually explain the technology behind Bitcoin, those who have a grounding in law and economics start to see the system. Privacy and anonymity are polar opposites. I am Wesleyan. If you understand that, you’ll start to understand my philosophy on wealth. If you read Andrew Carnegie’s The Gospel of Wealth, and not just the title without moving forward, you may start to understand my long-term plans. Unlike Andrew Carnegie, I don’t plan to retire in my 50s, nor in my 60s, nor in my 70s, nor even in my 80s.

There is a lot of work remaining to get Bitcoin to where I want it to be. I expect at least 30 years of work to do so. At that point, I am hoping it will be sufficiently advanced so that others can carry it forward. Having said so, within the year it will be locked with the protocol fixed and the asinine changes removed.

From here, once it is set in stone, it will remain set in stone.

Code is not law. Those lazy of thought and mind enough to believe that they can abrogate the responsibility that they have to the society they live in deserve all they get. In a democracy, you have the right to seek change. It does not mean people will agree with you. If you don’t like the law, work to change it. The great men of history are not great because they sought to throw away the law, they are great as they sought to align it to freedom.

It is simple to say that things should be different.

It is difficult to stand up and take the brunt of the attacks that come to one who stands against the status quo. It is simple to say things should be different, but it is incredibly hard to have the courage to stand up and fight for change. There are many ways to seek change in our society.

Anarchy is not one of them and never can be. It is simply the path to destruction. It is the path to totalitarian control, a path that those who promote it seek. They do so as wolves leading lambs.

I knew that eventually I would no longer be able to be secret. I knew that my past and my involvement would start to come out, but I had hoped for a longer period of time. The irony that few saw is concealed in the name.

Tominaga was a merchant and philosopher. He wrote during the Tokugawa period of Japan.

The time for remaining in the shadows has passed. Tominaga taught us that “concealment is the beginning of the habit of lying and stealing.”

He was an anti-traditionalist, a logician, and an early capitalist in the days of mercantilism. He once said, “our age today is one of corruption by liars and robbers.” We remain in such an age. Money has been corrupted. We create synthetic systems of synthetic systems designed with nothing more than a goal to move numbers between systems. Money from Main Street to Wall Street and away from where it’s needed.

We see the same again in what we call crypto.

The frauds and the charlatans seek to pump false gains, and they say that what they do is about democratising freedom, and in fact they seek to remove the controls that protect the average person so that they can better engage in their Ponzi schemes and scams. Nobody wins by having ICOs. They are no different to the dematerialised penny shares that floated around the Internet in the 90s as web IPOs. Unfortunately, all too many of us are too young to remember or were not exposed enough to the Internet at the time.

People know very little about my life. My belief system aligns well with Nakamoto Tominaga’s. He promoted the doctrine of simplicity and honesty. It is not, as some such as Gandhi have promoted, the abandonment of technology but rather the use of technology as capital. Rather than seeking simply to escape from work, we find ways to improve what we are doing and extend it, to create more, to build, and to evolve.

The irony of those attacking and calling what I’m doing a lie is that they do not even seem to understand the value of truth.

I always liked the Japanese way of thinking, the only philosophical theories of the Indian and Chinese Buddhists too profound and abstract to infiltrate into the minds and thoughts of the common people within early Japan. It led to a simplification but also, for quite some time, a difference in how intellectuals were perceived. As with the Roman Republic, the people at the time were not anti-intellectual but rather avoided the trap of intellectual society as they created based on logic and simple truths.

Tominaga was the Eastern Voltaire.

Nakamoto always said, “concealment is the start of lying and stealing.” I will say, anonymity in its truest form is the heart of crime and deception. Those seeking to tell you that anonymity is in any way like privacy are seeking to draw you into the shadows. They are the wolves who seek your fleece.

To create Bitcoin, I used the very system of thought it is designed to collapse. Those with socialist tendencies, and yes, anarchy is in all forms aligned to socialism, tend to think in terms of religious mysticism. If you have read Nakamoto Tominaga’s surviving works, you may come to understand the same. All of what I have said and done is hidden in plain sight. Such was the nature of my company, Panoopticrypt. It means, all that is hidden.

When you understand the difference between privacy and anonymity and how the latter destroys the former, you start to understand the deceptive call that the mystic makes on society in the pervasive and insidious call to a utopia.

Although I liked Tim, I knew in the 90s that I needed to find something else. I knew it would be my life goal, after reading Wei Dai’s juvenile and ill-conceived call for b-money:

I am fascinated by Tim May’s crypto-anarchy. Unlike the communities traditionally associated with the word “anarchy”, in a crypto-anarchy the government is not temporarily destroyed but permanently forbidden and permanently unnecessary. It’s a community where the threat of violence is impotent because violence is impossible, and violence is impossible because its participants cannot be linked to their true names or physical locations.
Bitcoin was designed to scale to create something more than the casino that is finance. It is not the exchange that people called the market that allows growth in the creation of capital but rather the exchange of goods between individuals for consumption. A market is not the casino we call the exchange. Such lies need to end.

My revolution is not cypherpunk.

I took all they had, and I created something more. Bitcoin destroys anonymity in all its forms. It allows privacy, takes all that such people sought to do, their foolhardy desire to create a utopia, and changes it allowing Main Street, those that seek to work and create. The proletariat. The middle class. The average person seeking to create a life. It builds a society for them.

It is nobler to suffer the slings and arrows of outrageous fortune but as you take arms and oppose them. Not to die or to sleep, not to end. To see not calamity and long life, the whips and scorns of time are hard and challenge the patient merit as the unworthy take acts of pale thought against us.

The bare bodkin is insufficient to pierce the armour of the man with a passion to change the system corrupting us. Social media need no longer make conscious cowards of the soul, for when we go forward we will know that those who seek to attack us must face reality and cannot hide in the shadows of the great pith and little movement.

In the present world of finance, what Tominaga would have called a world of decadence, a place where many people are cheating and stealing and creating ICOs, it is intolerable that in allowing those who teach the lies, the utopian view that code is law and that a world can exist without order, we should let it occur and not stand to oppose it. Those people who say that they are bringing freedom as they seek what they call a democratisation of finance protect the corruption that seeps through it rather than oppose vices.

They all imitate a habit of secrecy. They create rules and hierarchies. They enact systems that are deplorable but operate through secret instructions and techno-mystical religious dogma designed not to create, not to build capital but to enable the transmission of secrecy. They tell you they seek truth, yet in reality they obscure and they cheat.

Bitcoin ends all of it. Not in minutes, not in days, and not quickly. None of it occurs in “Internet time.”

The path forward is already set in stone. And right now, I don’t care whether you believe me. I have my own way of doing things, and most importantly, the first part is to understand that code is not law.

In the period coming up in the growth and development of what I’m creating, you come to understand who I am and what I have created and why. In time, there won’t even be any doubt, but it is my time and my way to choose.

Most importantly, I’m not going to do anything in any way that aligns with the lies that are taught by the crypto community. I am going to teach you how flawed, how insidious, and how evil the heart of code as law really is. I’m going to teach you about the frauds that they propagate, the lies that they use, and the totalitarian ends that they seek to bring as they try to enslave you.

The end of the long road that one steps on in seeking a world where code acts as law is one without humanity. Code is inflexible, there is no heart or soul in code. The strength of the law is that it can be flexible. It is not fixed and unalterable, and can bend.

I was a part of the movement that was the cypherpunks. Not because I agreed but because it needed to be stopped. When you understand Bitcoin, when you understand a sound system of money that acts to allow exchange privately but with an immutable evidence trail, you will start to understand why I created Bitcoin.

I created Bitcoin to ensure that the world the ignorant seek to create, the totalitarian utopia by those seeking a world based on an inflexible code-is-law algorithmic system, never evolves.

I spent 20 years designing Bitcoin. I started in 1998, and went through more iterations than I can ever hope to imagine and remember before finally coming up with something that worked. Welcome to freedom; it comes through a system that consumes utopians and spits them out. The system within Bitcoin is stronger than you believe, and it was designed to not work in many other ways. It takes naïve idealism, and crushes it if it does not evolve into something of considered thought.

It no longer matters whether you like it; Bitcoin was carefully considered, and no blockchain-based system ever allows you to create the totalitarian utopia that is the ultimate dystopia of a world where code is law and order is crushed in anarchy.

Re-engineering the web with blockchain to create a sense of community

As blockchain applications have taken off, one question has taken center stage: Do we build a completely new system or do we build on top of the existing system? Not surprisingly, many developers have gone with the latter. This is because other than the relative ease that comes with the option, it’s also easier to attract users.

However, a new school of thought is emerging that advocates for a complete overhaul of the system. Recently, Unwriter launched Bottle, the first native Bitcoin browser globally >>> https://bottle.bitdb.network/ . Bottle is capable of surfing anything saved on the BSV blockchain, from text to Javascript and CSS. While he could have built on top of the existing systems, he explained why he didn’t:

“The thing is, Bitcoin is NOT “the next web”. In many ways, it’s completely the opposite of what the WWW is, which is why Bitcoin is so powerful. That’s why it’s more beneficial to start from scratch instead of forking an existing full-fledged browser built for the existing WWW, with many legacy features that can constrain future directions.”

And Bottle isn’t the only cutting-edge solution being developed on the Bitcoin SV network. BSV developers are rethinking the internet, and rightly so. In its current format, the internet is skewed for the big tech firms. With Bitcoin Core (BTC) having started out with so much promise, over the years it has veered off from its original path. >>> https://coingeek.com/metanet-icu-invites-developers-to-discuss-bitcoin-sv/

As George Siosi explained in a recent blog post, social media is the first field that the new revolution will disrupt first. >>> https://medium.com/fai%C4%81/the-correlation-between-bitcoin-social-networks-sense-of-community-ec7d180222a
Social media networks are built around the idea of small world networks. This is a concept that states that most nodes in a network are not neighbors, but they can be reached from each other by a small number of hops or steps.

As Siosi explained, social media giants such as Facebook and Snapchat are now turning to building communities centered on the concept of small world networks. While initially, they focused on expanding your social circle, they are now converging their users into small intimate circles.

This creates a sense of community. As the ever-so-insightful Dr. Craig Wright stated, “It is not open platforms people seek but rather closed personal groups and communication with people in a way that allows them to build trust over time. People need to be able to decide what they will consider public, private, or even somewhere in between.” >>> https://coingeek.com/metanet-icu-invites-developers-to-discuss-bitcoin-sv/

With time, developers have come to recognize Bitcoin, not just as currency, but a system on which we can build rebuild most of the applications we currently use. And its advantages over the current systems are inexhaustible. It guarantees its users their identity, protects copyright and prevents misinformation.

Siosi concludes:

“Now, we haven’t even covered how communities have formed around Bitcoin (as an idea) itself, but if we wish to truly innovate, we must discard all that we think we know. We must start from scratch, but with lessons learned from the past.”

BSV Peer-to-Peer Web Payments and Bookkeeping – Visions for Bitcoin from Dr Craig S Wright
By: Sebastian Plötzeneder - Communications Manager
nChain’s Chief Scientist Dr Craig S Wright has continued with his weekly series on his Medium account, revealing new applications and uses for Bitcoin. In the powerful series, Wright shares his ideas about and expertise on new ground-breaking applications and services—made possible on the Bitcoin SV blockchain.

Wright’s third entry in the series is entitled “Taking money over the web using Bitcoin — the way it was designed,” and focuses on the seamless integration and facilitation of payments on the web using Bitcoin; the solution allows both fiat and bitcoin (and any tokens for that matter) to be safely accepted for value of consideration or payment—in a manner that is more structured, organised, and thus more efficient than current standards.

The solution is an application of nChain’s patent innovations for Deterministic Key Generation and Secure Split Key Technique, and allows for EDI (electronic data interchange) standards, tools, and message types to be applied more securely and efficiently.

In business terms, organisations such as SAP can increase the reliability, feasibility, and privacy for bookkeeping services through several aspects of the innovation:

Organisation: A master key is used to establish a hierarchical key structure; an identity key, which may carry a certificate through an established authority (for merchants, for example), is maintained to ensure authenticity and integrity for the exchange of information, while new key pairs (subkeys) for payments are created for every use. Certificates can have expiry dates, where legislative requirements are kept in check in a timely and automated manner.
Privacy: Both the merchant and the consumer can provide evidence for a transaction without exposing themselves to unnecessary public records; as keys can be allocated and delegated separately, no more than the necessary information is passed on. In other words, each bill can be kept separate and solely between the buyer, the merchant, and the tax authority—granting visibility on an individual basis and retaining ultimate privacy for each participant.
Security: Another benefit of having a hierarchical key structure and new key pairs for every payment is the security it brings with it, as the breach of one such key does not grant access to other orders or purchases of a client. The breach is, in fact, highly unlikely to begin with, as the use of a shared (or common) secret requires authorised access from several points of the transaction origin. A data leakage or hack is thus limited in scope.
Ease of use: Because of the clear cut-out structure and integrity of the proposed system, public audits by tax authorities can be carried out in an automated way without delay—saving costs and time for either party, while adhering to legislative and accounting requirements in a manner most seamless to a business or consumer (peer-to-peer at its best).
The solution is one of many cornerstones of nChain’s ground-breaking Metanet project, and brings us closer to establishing the Internet services we know (and more) on top of a safer and more efficient back-end—by using Bitcoin SV as the world’s global blockchain and database.

And there is more: The system can be integrated with current EDI and accounting standards and tools, allowing for more reliable bookkeeping and one, as Craig Wright puts it, which cannot be “deleted, altered, or manipulated.”
Even tokenised fiat—through protocols such as Tokenized—can be exchanged using Bitcoin as the underlying payment-data or “plumbing” infrastructure, which would pose no change in habits on the payment side, yet retain transactions at a more secure and private level.

Implement the service for BSV-powered web payments and bookkeeping (call it “BDI” for “Bitcoin data interchange”), and follow more exciting new applications and solutions by reading Craig Wright’s entry https://medium.com/predict/taking-money-over-the-web-using-bitcoin-the-way-it-was-designed-446385c1a04b

Bitcoin SV mines first ever 128MB block, proving Satoshi’s Vision !

The Bitcoin SV (BSV) has targeted scaling massively, with the faith that if you provide the world an unlimited block size, developers and users will find a way to create new possibilities. This faith is already confirmed, as the BSV blockchain has now mined its biggest block yet: 128MB.

The momentous occasion came at 12:36 a.m. UTC On March 30, when a 128MB block was confirmed by nChain’s BMG mining pool. The block held 1,440 transactions, and could very well be the record for a while, as it’s the current block cap for the BSV blockchain.

This beat the previous record, set less than an hour earlier, of 124MB. That block was also mined by nChain’s BMG mining pool.

These aren’t isolated incidents either; BSV has seen its block size growing pretty consistently. It hit new records on March 27 with two blocks over 50MB. It then smashed those records with a 113MB block on March 28.

This is once again confirmation that BSV has vindicated Satoshi’s original vision of massive scaling. By giving the world more possibilities, businesses and users have met the challenge and used increased block sizes to their full potential.

Important figures in the Bitcoin world have celebrated this momentous occasion on Twitter. Bitcoin Association Founding President Jimmy Nguyen commented “We now live in the era of 128MB blocks.”

Since the block cap has been reached, the next step will be to scale even more. The Bitcoin Association has previously stated the goal is to scale to 1GB in the near future, and it looks like that bigger block size will come in handy as the Bitcoin community continues to find new ways to fill those blocks.

There can be little doubt that they will, either. It’s only been a few months since Bitcoin was reborn as Bitcoin SV, and since it started down its path of unlimited scaling, protocol stability, and professionalization, so many businesses and applications have developed and found adoption. Exchanges have come on board, wallets have signed up, and new payment options have adopted BSV. And that’s just talking about the ways BSV can be used as the world’s new money.

Let’s not forget the new ways BSV has unleashed the blockchain as the world’s data network. With the increase of OP_RETURN, apps like Bitstagram and Bitpaste are now possible. Looking to a future where BSV is the place we turn to for data, we also now have Bottle, the BSV blockchain browser, a dedicated way to pull up files saved to the blockchain.

There’s no better time to celebrate the achievements of the BSV blockchain. If you’re looking to mark the occasion, why not check out the upcoming CoinGeek Toronto conference. Like Calvin Ayre noted, this scaling conference will have the top minds of the BSV world, and will celebrate the scaling achievements we’ve already seen. If you want to be a part of it register to attend, and show your appreciation of BSV and save a few bucks by using BitcoinSV via Coingate.

Any blockchain that is not the bitcoin blockchain itself is a very big scam to me and I just see it as a way people are trying to make free money all in the name of achieving satoshi vision of blockchain, bitcoin cash was the first coin that came up with the idea that bitcoin is no longer following satoshi vision since segwit was going to be implemented then, but why is bitcoin cash now, nowhere to be found because it was just a means to get free money.

Other than contributing to total crypto space's marketcap, I am not seeing anything positive with these things to crypto community. Due to continuous pumping and dumping, like XRP BCH is trying to find a good place among investors and traders but not sure how much successful it is in terms of having continuous institutional investors.

You're illogical, I analyze your feed, you promote different altcoin, and you write that "any fork of bitcoin" is a fake and a scam while you promote it altcoin up on your signature profile, a moment must stop being hypocritical and stop writing your bullshit.

Hello world !

As part of a voluntary action, I have chosen to gather and transmit the information found from
Bitcoin Satoshi Vision BSV
The objective of this action is to make you discover the environment deployed by the BSV blockchain as well as Metanet's technological research and other respective perspectives. Understand that I am a volunteer who undertakes to catalyse information that is transcribed and simply explained; my personal resources are committed to producing tangible translations by subcontracting services and thus opening the accessibility and understanding of information to the world in different languages.

If you don't like the BSV subject and its affiliates.... I will be grateful to you for refraining from any mention, juvenile, rude, unbuildable or any kind of impoliteness and simply to go your way.
As with any living thing on this earth, my time is precious but limited.

Bitcoin SV – everything you need to know
If you are familiar with the crypto space, you must have heard this story of epic resistance. In November 2018, Bitcoin Cash had a hard fork of the network – a radical upgrade splitting the blockchain in two. Two parties representing each side of the chain clashed in the social media war, possibly leading to the market crash.

The two sides were Bitcoin SV (Bitcoin Satoshi Vision or BSV) and Bitcoin Cash ABC (BCH ABC). BCH ABC, led by Roger Ver a.k.a. The Bitcoin Jesus was sticking to the position of not implementing any radical changes to the Bitcoin Cash blockchain. Bitcoin SV and their leader Craig Wright, on the other hand, were promoting increasing the block size from 32Mb to 128Mb.

After the hard fork, both teams started block generation – each of the sides wanted to produce as many blocks as possible to increase the hash rate. In the end, Bitcoin Cash ABC managed to score more and won this battle. However, the hash war was not over just yet…
These are the stories of the past. What we have now are two blockchains. The holders of BCH have two balances – in BCHABC (now Bitcoin Cash) and Bitcoin SV. We have already released a guide on how to get your post-fork coins in Guarda wallets.

Bitcoin SV now exists as a separate entity.

Have a good discovery!
