What Bitcoin SV is

Bitcoin SV (BSV) is a blockchain network created in 2018 through a hard fork of Bitcoin Cash, which had itself split from the Bitcoin (BTC) blockchain the year before. The project describes its purpose as restoring the original design of Bitcoin set out in Satoshi Nakamoto's white paper and early client software, after BTC's developers had, in its view, departed from that design.

The network removes the block size limits applied on BTC and re-enables script commands that had been restricted on that chain. This is intended to permit high transaction throughput at low per-transaction cost, suited to micropayments, alongside support for tokens, smart contracts and other on-chain data applications. The chain continues to use proof-of-work consensus, as on BTC and BCH.

Classified by data providers as a smart contract platform, a Bitcoin fork, and a proof-of-work network, BSV sits within a lineage of three separately traded chains that share ancestry but diverge in rules and community. Its claim to fidelity with Satoshi's original design is a stated intention and a point of ongoing dispute among Bitcoin-derived projects, not an independently verifiable fact, and it should be read as such. No figures on transaction throughput, fee levels, or adoption are stated here as durable facts about the network; what is fixed is the historical fork event and the technical changes made at that time. The page above carries current market measurements; this entry does not.

Through Nobody

BSV's site says its restored Bitcoin Script language lets programs run on the chain itself, without extra layers. Each app is its own code with its own flaws.

The exit-friction index

Once a month we publish what a $100,000 exit really costs across every token we can measure. Leave an address and this month’s figure arrives straight away, and we will write again when the next index publishes. Nothing else, and never to anyone else.
