And the weather app simply copies data from https://openweathermap.org/ into transactions and thats it. So its data that comes from there and not data from bsv users.
Its a useless application and only meant to spam transactions so it looks like bsv has usage when its 95% bullshit like this.
This is the short judgement, and the transcripts. The problematic thing with defending anonymously is they're pressing for the judge to order I essentially dox myself by disclosing my name and address. The judge resisted to make that order for now, but it's unclear if he'll change his mind at some later date.
>I will happily contribute money and/or time to the cause because I fucking loathe CSW, his backers, and his representatives.
Thanks, that means a lot. I suspect he's going to spam the court with thousands of documents like he did in the McCormack case. We could end up needing lots of eyes on this case.
I'm currently in contact with COPA, so things are moving, and I know Bird & Bird are working thoroughly on this whitepaper issue. He's definitely going to lose, but the question is how much suffering, headache and drama he will cause in the process. This guy is an absolute menace. It really goes to show how much damage a law firm with no morals can cause. It's beyond ridiculous they're lending legitimacy to his claims and ruining so many people's lives in the process.
The best I found is https://blockchair.com/bitcoin-sv and it supports both BCH and BSV.
You will not even find this block explorer mentioned on the "real" sub (as you call it).
Coin.dance and bitinfocharts just have nodes that are currently not syncing anymore.
I don't know how blockchair is managing it but their nodes keep on synced with whatever shannigans is going on on BSV.
According to blockchair there have actually been 1.3 million tx on BSV in the last 24 hours.
u/blockchair would you be so kind as to give an update on the current state of the BSV network. It seems to me the network keeps splitting and requires manual intervention because of on going reorg and 2 GB big blocks that break almost all the infrastructure that is not TAAL.
See TAAL does not broadcast these tx, they mine em directly in to their blocks and then all the none TAAL nodes need to verify endless stupid crap which breaks their infra so they get behind in sync.
I am pretty sure all of this is done on purpose to completely isolate BVS so the intra is only TAAL and only Calvin his exchange still lists it.
If you reorg and push blocks big enough to break everything eventually ever single exchange will have you delisted.
I think the equivalent of getting all your cult followers on to a deserted airforce base is happening.
Once Calvin runs 100% of the infra and has the only exchange where you can buy and sell BSV then they can just update the software to steal Satoshi his million coins and then start selling those on Calvin his exchange to their cult victims.
I have no comments on the encryption part of this discussion, but your entire comment seems completely and blissfully unaware that both Craig and Calvin have stated repeatedly that it would be trivial for a court order to transfer Satoshi's Bitcoin without a private key, and that that is what they expect will happen should Craig lose the Kleiman suit https://twitter.com/Zectro1/status/1300506041298219009
>Craig claims he owns this wallet https://blockchair.com/search?q=1FeexV6bAHb8ybZjqQMjJrcCrHGW9sb6uF so question, why didn't he just give himself private keys, and sell BSV from that wallet (which would be perfectly legit if he just wants to cash out)?
Craig hasn't spoken of "giving himself" the private keys to anything. He's spoken of how Bitcoin can be accessed by a mechanism other than private keys (the court). Why hasn't he moved those Bitcoins in the Mt. Gox thief's address? Because he doesn't have anything yet that he can frame as a "court order to transfer the bitcoins." It's as simple as that.
The 1st one I checked it's still there: 1LK8dnWdxZWxLcdTCpqHRebGwwVcMAPo6X
https://blockchair.com/bitcoin/address/1LK8dnWdxZWxLcdTCpqHRebGwwVcMAPo6X
I'm pretty sure they're all still there because it's big news whenever BTC moves from one of the early wallets (early 2009) when only a small handful of people were running Bitcoin. Gotta run for the moment but it would be interesting to take a look at some of the other addresses that were signed back in May. (I'm betting you'll find that all the BTC is still sitting in those original wallets, 50.0 BTC in each wallet).
This appears to further fuel the BSV pump. OnChainFx now lists BSV ahead of both BCH and XRP (seems to use lower XRP circulation than CoinMarketCap). But on CoinEx BSV/BCH market the price is still very close to 1.
In the end, will BSV crash harder than BitConnect?
You left out the part where 98% of BSV transactions are one pointless weather app that nobody uses:
​
Because 98% of block space is one single weather app spamming weather and permanently recording it on to the blockchain:
​
To better prove this, lets look at actual transaction numbers.
​
WeatherSV: 1,233,657 transactions
MoneyButton: 1,040 transactions.
​
They have one single useless weather app that nobody uses causing massive blocks and these retards are parading around like the world has adopted their blockchain. More people have adopted cleaning my underwear than using BSV for any kind of p2p transaction.
Sorry I was wrong. 98% of BSV block size is one single weather app.

"The sunk cost fallacy is our tendency to continue with something we’ve invested money, effort, or time into—even if the current costs outweigh the benefits. When we fall prey to the sunk cost fallacy, we make irrational decisions that are against our best interest—essentially digging ourselves into a deeper and deeper hole."

This applies to Calvin Ayre. He has spent so much money now that he feels obliged to continue to do so in he hopes of getting his initial investments back. Contrary to Calvin's expectations he will not getting his money back. Instead he is throwing his money away.
Thus I expect Calvin to continue funding Craig Wright even if he loses in Norway AND in the UK. There will not be a grand finale where the whole thing comes crashing down I think. Instead the cult will slowly fade away.
The problem is that the amount of tx that would need to happen to make BSV profitable would have to increase 100x. If everyone pays the 0.5sats/byte TAAL asks for, it's gonna take quite a lot of tx to make it worth ANYTHING. Very small would be organic tx but the rest would be bots spamming the lowest possible tx and fee to inflate the number (which is happening now)
As you can see with this block.. a large majority of the tx are the same address looping dust to itself
https://blockchair.com/bitcoin-sv/block/684019
there's very little to believe in in BSV. It's all smoke and mirrors. 99% of it isn't real.
Funny how you get fee upvotes in this sub even for horribly cringe-worthy jokes. If Bitcoin is a scam then how come so much is being built on Bitcoin BSV, and BSV mines world record 638MB blocks, and has enabled all of Satoshi's opcodes, while Core only has segwit with broken chains of signatures, small blocks, high fees, and you were too scared or incompetent to enable Satoshi's opcodes.
BSV is performing far better than any other coin which is why BSV is the #1 coin with world record transaction capacity and blocksize, for example this 638MB block mined the other day. More can be done and is being built on BSV, the only decentralized chain and the only chain that can scale.
Here's something to think about. How is this better than Twitter?
​
If I make a post on Twitter it costs me $0 and they save my tiny 100kb post to their centralized database with failovers and assured availability. Their uptime is close to 99.99%.
​
If I make a post on Twetch it costs me $0.20 and they save my tiny 100kb post to the blockchain, which is then distributed to every node rendering my post permanent and uneditable for all of eternity. Distributing the data to all nodes turns a 100kb post into a 100kb * # of nodes post. There are currently 351 public BSV nodes. So now a 100kb tweet takes up 34.2MB (at least) of storage space across the globe.
​
Are users on Twitter so worried about censorship that they are willing to pay $0.20 per post for security? No.
Are users so worried about their posts being altered that they need an unalterable blockchain for every bullshit social media post ever created?
According to this presentation, at current userbase levels, Twitter generates 8 TB of data a day (Source: https://www.slideshare.net/raffikrikorian/twitter-by-the-numbers). Assuming no more BSV nodes ever get added, 1 month worth of Twitter data is 240 TB on Twitter's current servers. If Twetch hit Twitter levels of use, it would cause the global blockchain footprint to grow by 84.2 Petabytes a month.
​
What part of any of the breakdown I have made above makes Twetch sound like an idea that the market will flock to?
You are stupid to believe Blockstream is the sole operator/curator/maintainer of the BTC project.
Funny how BSVtards get all uppity when people say the samething about nChain and BSV. The difference is nChain OWNS BSV while Blockstream doesn't OWN BTC. Satoshi (not Craig) said everything-on-chain was stupid and a bad idea, but here are with BSV, hell bent on putting everything on-chain while at the same time mining empty blocks https://blockchair.com/bitcoin-sv/block/643946
Trivially disproved false claims about Bitcoin's history:
--- 15 A No. Wait. Yes, I think he was assuming 16 in 2010 there were denial-of-service attacks 17 against the Bitcoin network and what are called 18 "transaction spamming attacks," where somebody 19 floods the network with lots of tiny transactions. 20 And as part of that, that was -- 21 there was a technical change made by Satoshi to 22 limit the Bitcoin block size to 1 megabyte, and 23 that had been, and is still, actually, hugely 24 controversial on whether to increase the block size 25 to allow more transactions. ---
> but where are those bsv
if you put the public key of your cold wallet into a block explorer which handles all those chain, like https://blockchair.com, you should see that there is a balance on both BCH and BSV chains
There is no replay protection in BSV, and they are planning to do some funky stuff which could involve some miners taking some coins, so I would recommend that you DO split your cold wallet BCH so that it's no longer affected by anything BSV does.
The easiest way to do this is to send a tiny amount (*) of already-split BCH from your coinbase account to your cold wallet public address. Wait for some confirmations on that transaction. Then sweep the cold wallet into a good BCH wallet, and move it all together to a NEW cold wallet address.
That way, your BCH transaction will include some inputs that should only exist on the BCH chain, and cannot be replayed on BSV.
Now check your original BCH cold wallet address on a block explorer - it should contain 0. While the new cold wallet address should contain all the previous + the small amount you sent to it from coinbase.
Congratulations, you just split your BCH safely.
* by "tiny", I mean can be as low as you can possibly withdraw
>pretty sure Slack doesn't ban people either.
Didn't claim that "Slack" did.
But you can, of course, ban people you don't want from your paid slack channel. How could it be otherwise? People run businesses off of that thing, dude!
Here, let me google that for you, as you seem very confused:
>The point is, you're already speaking to the converted using this sub. It would be better for you guys to spend time posting on r / cryptocurrency or elsewhere if you wanted to warn people. Not that you need to, because 99% of people believe he is a fraud anyway.
Are you converted? Because I'm talking to you right now, and in doing so, I'm completely refuting your position here. Or, rather, you are self-refuting it, I'm just closing the circle for you.
>So, ultimately, as I stated in my original post, what is happening here seems like a total waste of time.
We don't think so, if you disagree, so be it!
Curious you'd disagree by participating in this so-called "total waste of time" though.
Hmmm.
Perhaps it's not such a waste of time at all, huh?
> Oh yeah? They mining giga blocks? Show me.
The Last block was mined about an hour ago today by viabtc
You said show other miners securing the network, I did.

Coinbase is not much help for your BSV needs unfortunately.
For small amounts you can send some BTC to a coin swapping service like Relayx OTC and plug in your Money Button address or paymail as the send to address.
Changelly is another option though r/cc likes to hate on them. Used them for small amounts and haven't had any issues with them myself.
Bitmessage initially used RSA keys but version 4 addresses use EC keys, they are not compatible and can not be converted. When you generate an identity (a key / address) using version 0.1.0 and you start version 0.4.0 (which introduced v4 "BM-2c" addresses), it tells you this:
> One of your addresses, BM-2nYKi18K5Pr3FcHym6iK5wisa7nHrgS68mh, is an old version 1 address. Version 1 addresses are no longer supported. May we delete it now?
I've tried running every released software in between, but this message appears starting with version 0.2.0. No version upgrades this address, you can only create a new address. Sending a message from the old address produces an error.
You can find all the old releases of Bitmessage that you need to test this here:
ROFL
Is this an actual comment by Calvin Ayre? Disqus account history looks genuine.
> Craig is Satoshi. I have seen all the evidence but there is enough in the public domain that anyone smart can figure this out. Deniers are all commercial attacks on his work. They all know he is Satoshi so they are all basically scammers and are trying to defraud the public from real Bitcoin.
this is still just a civil trial, so jail is still unlikely here.
but as the plaintiffs hints, we could see a few more familiar names added as defendants soon.
the primary reason for January being packed to the brim with scheduled depositions for numerous witnesses is that discovery was supposed to end on January 17, I think. Now that deadline has been removed and a new one hasn't been set yet (but June 29 looks good), the plaintiffs will have plenty of time to dig down into Craig's bald faced assertions, starting with asking Craig to give a lot more details about his haunting bonded courier.
with all this extra time for discovery, I'm wondering if the plaintiffs will end up requesting access to the MetaNet ICU chat archives, maintained by Slack Technologies, Inc., given that a number of screenshots have surfaced from it where Craig Wright appears to make material statements directly relevant to the litigation.
