I have a long time friend whom I touch base with every few months- in our most recent conversation he informed me of his growing interest in BSV. Anons this is someone I consider to be very intelligent but seemingly only pulling info from a BSV echo chamber. I am concerned - please help me to balance him out by consolidating anti-BSV material in this thread. In particular I remember reading about CSW claiming wallets were his in court submissions but that one of those wallets signed saying it is not his - other material is also welcome

tldr
Friend is getting into bsv, help me snap in out of it

you think satoshi wanted a chain that would be so large only states or mega corporations could store it? perhaps the purpose of the block size is spam weather info on the chain - wonder why it was not in white paper

From Satoshi himself:

"There is only one global chain.

The existing Visa credit card network processes about 15 million Internet purchases per day worldwide. Bitcoin can already scale much larger than that with existing hardware for a fraction of the cost. It never really hits a scale ceiling. If you're interested, I can go over the ways it would cope with extreme size.

By Moore's Law, we can expect hardware speed to be 10 times faster in 5 years and 100 times faster in 10. Even if Bitcoin grows at crazy adoption rates, I think computer speeds will stay ahead of the number of transactions."

Yes, that's right. Nothing to see here. Definitely don't ask your friend in good faith what he has discovered. Definitely don't dig through the BSV threads on warosu. And definitely DO uncritically believe every transparent smear against CSW.

Yet another stale pasta Gregpost with no real substance or real world metrics accounted for. Miners that have the smallest write time will gain an edge over their competitors. The process of block propagation is not just pushing the block out but reconstructing the data as efficiently as possible so they can build on top of it. This is how Bitcoin scales, by miners trying to find an edge over one another. This is why there will be mining facilities in every major city processing millions of dollars a day in transactions. Armies will protect these mining facilities. That's decentralized.

People forget that proof of work was the recent innovation that made crypto work.

Proof of stake has been tried before with color coins from the 90s and early 2000s and all that crap can be manipulated through tax economics. Proof of work is like staking electricity a real, physical product.

Before we continue please keep in mind that global elites from all countries meet yearly. Although you might think it's china vs US vs Russia, it is actually a coordinated fasaad. The rich elite of the world like their status and are thus incentive to keep down the wage slaves of the world.

When bitcoin was new and shinny to the world it was really fucking scary to those in power. They had no idea were it came from. They did not know it was made by a computer forensic expert that was tired of seeing high level corruption.

With that said Blockstream took over the after satoshi went ghost. They pushed a bunch of contreverial PIPs, that took power from the miners even against majority votes.This is because they had an agenda and with unlimited funding in advertisement and news they managed to get everyone who is NOT a miner to get on board (ie all the price action tards). The bitcoin core protocol has long been altered taking control away from those mining and securing the network so that MINERS ARE NOT IN CONTROL.

They went on to push more changes with their massive PR campaigns and eventually managed to restrict the block size. In this case the majority does not win. By restricting blocks sizes they crippled the network to very low tx/s therefore taking bitcoin out as a major competitor to visa, western union ect. By blocking the stream, Blockstream managed to halt bitcoins performance to be unusable as an everyday payment network. Their agenda worked and thus made their proprietary payment channel more lucrative as a solution to scale the broken protocol. Payment channels like LN also allow funds to be seized, frozen garnished to allow for regulations ect.

>> No.16433828

I have always opposed this blockstream tards. I personally believe that it is idiotic to use a ledger like bitcoin, to not use it by using second layer solutions like LN. LN is basically a smart contract, which in my opinion should only be used to automate or expand the functionality of the secure protocol ledger. A smart contract should NEVER BE used to scale the core protocol of any blockchain as it provides massive security gaps in the stores of proofs by potentially not tying them to electricity consumtion.

The security behind the core layer is key. Proof of work is the recent innovation being destroyed.

Satoshi himself early on knew big blocks will eventually happen at scale and actually wrote how he proposed to have varying block sizes set by the miners themselves. He wrote how eventually nodes could start charging fees to allow the node operators to profit from storing the blockchain. This IS KEY.

Let my miners choose how big the blocks go.

Let my nodes receive tx fees and thus be rewarded for the hardware and electrical expenses.

>"For cryptographic proof in my presence, Craig signed and verified a message using the private key from block #1 newly-generated coins and from block #9 newly-generated coins (the first transaction to Hal Finney)." The Bitcoin Core project released a statement on Twitter saying "There is currently no publicly available cryptographic proof that anyone in particular is bitcoin's creator."[57][better source needed] Bitcoin developer Jeff Garzik agreed that evidence provided by Wright does not prove anything, and security researcher Dan Kaminsky in his blog concluded Wright's claim was a scam.[4] Jordan Pearson and Lorenzo Franceschi-Bicchierai said that "Wright simply reused an old signature from a bitcoin transaction performed in 2009 by Satoshi.

It will starve (no TX no fees for miners> no miners no Hashpower no hashpower>no stable protocol security>)
You've been warned ₿itCoin will rise from the ashes.

and just why would I be bothered to humor your delusions? instead of refuting what I posted, you post 2 more, completely different arguments, and a link to a website that looks like it's run by a cult. if you want to convince people that you're a lunatic, you're doing a great job.
