Bitcoin (thats ticker BTC) is not turing complete.

Whatever theyve done over there in bsv land with adding new opcodes and enabling old ones doesnt change that. If theyve made their fork-of-a-fork turing complete, well, that was really dumb. Satoshi himself (the real one) disabled a bunch of opcodes way back in the day out of fear they might accidentally form turing completeness.

Its beyond the scope of this thread to explain to you why its bad for a publicly available global consensus distributed system to be turing complete at the consensus layer, besides which i wouldnt bother to try and explain it to you anyway. I do wish you luck figuring it out because its kind of important.
