Profile

Bitcoin SV stands for Bitcoin Satoshi Vision and, according to its community, is the only Bitcoin protocol that follows the vision set out by Satoshi Nakamoto’s white paper in 2008 - Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System. The Bitcoin developer community has disagreed for many years over whether Bitcoin should scale with bigger blocks or remain with small blocks. On August 1st, 2017 the BTC group forked off of the original Bitcoin Protocol by introducing a controversial code change called “Segregated Witness” or SeWit.

A new ticker symbol BCH, emerged at that time, to support a version of Bitcoin that sought to follow the original Bitcoin blockchain. Even after BCH emerged, its community ultimately became divided into two more factions. One group (led by the Bitcoin ABC implementation) did not want to scale as quickly and kept its block size at 32MB; it also wanted to introduce technical changes which deviated from the Bitcoin Protocol in order to seek a more anonymous system that cannot be traced by the government. The other group wanted to build exactly what was described in the Bitcoin White Paper and follow Satoshi’s original vision to massively scale the Bitcoin Blockchain.

This led to the second major fork on November 15th, 2018 when BSV became the new ticker symbol for the original Bitcoin Protocol. Bitcoin SV is intended to provide a clear choice for miners and allow enterprises and startups to build businesses and applications on a stable, scalable, secure blockchain.
