Bitcoin BSV solves a really interesting problem: ‘how do you pay for, and get paid for computation?’ By putting digital money inside distributed computing instructions and creating an open market where miners could compete for the fees inside the instructions, Satoshi created an incentive driven system to create an entirely new form of distributed computing. Bitcoin is a super computer, where miners are incentivised to build stronger, faster cheaper computers to process instructions, not merel pass money between Alice and Bob.

2014 saw the emergence of ‘smart contracts’ which allow for conditional payments to be made on receipt of confirmation that other work has been done, but smart contracting must operate in a massively parallel environment where competing nodes can race to do the computations. When constructed properly the kind of computational work that can be done by miners in this manner is virtually unlimited. A paid-for instruction could for example be fetching a piece of data for a user when executing a google search, or even rendering some graphics.

So this leads us into an entirely new economy, an economy that is ‘data-driven’ because it is a truly competitive global financial system which can represent any kind of financial instrument and calculate that instruments’ relationship to the world in close to real time. It’s competitive because it makes microtransactions possible and affordable, and because the quantity and speed of possible contracts that can be executed is dictated by how much profit miners can make. So the better they are, the faster the ‘bitcoin computer’ is.

The more successful the bitcoin BSV system is, the more it will tend to account for other less secure and less able systems in the fractured and often unaccountable global economy.

This is because at a fundamental level any fiat currency is a contract, a ‘promise to pay’, an IOU, which can be written as a contract in Bitcoin (SV), and it’s profitable to write fiat amounts into smart contracts on chain, which inevitably leads to the bitcoinization of fiat. It doesn’t, however, destroy fiat. Governments can still control their own monetary policy by issuing their own currencies and control their fiscal policy, and banks will be able to make loans to customers in fiat on the blockchain.

What governments gain from issuing fiat on the chain is security, auditability and cost savings. It’s cheaper for them to issue fiat on a distributed network that is secured by the free market and the savings can be passed onto the tax payer. And the benefits that accrue to mutually cooperating businesses in different countries that have all issued their fiat on-chain would multiply very fast because they would be conducting trade inside a common, fast, cheap, secure network environment.

It does, however, destroy BTC and other networks using SHA256 as it approaches scale. This is because miners well switch back to the network as it grows in value and returns more to hardware investors than BTC can. BSV is therefore an existential threat to BTC.

However BTC is not ‘Bit’ ‘Coin’ because it cannot store data on chain, or do computations on chain, or facilitate a free market for calculations in the block, or create a global microtransaction economy with a 100% legal immutable ledger on chain. Bitcoin SV also destroys the viability of Ethereum since it’s massively parallel by design so computations do not need to run on every node >sequentially, and because it incentivises faster and faster computations it will outrun Ethereum and make it obsolete.

At scale, there’s no use for more than one secure blockchain network protocol because an ‘internet of money’ is a giant piece of global security infrastructure. It only works properly when there’s one architecture securing everyone’s businesses together in the same framework. And ironically, since we can now do op_bignum cryptographic calculations inside transactions in script in BSV, we can make Ethereum a side-chain by paying for their Etherhash PoW to be performed and the results of the work submitted for audit on the SV chain.

wrong as hell

money is an iou while bitcoin is not an iou. but smart contracts can't interact with any backed or custodial system trustlessly. it's completely pointless and meaningless to rant about this.

the ledger is the only part that's important. a trustless permissionless publicly auditable ledger that is secure: btc. microtransactions can go on-chain or off-chain makes no difference in the value proposition of bitcoin: stop central bank fuckery.

i don't think BSV will succeed. BTC does what BSV can do already and there are already other projects that are light years ahead of BSV in terms of tech, computer philosophy and smart contracts, specialized. BSV is trying to do too much and poorly with slow hands moving in the sphere. craig is kind of a loon who can't percisely explain something without sounding high off his own ego either, BSV is like the shitty reality tv show everyone wants to turn off besides the trashy low iq women who are into it. mesmerized by persona and some sort of superiority complex that disregards the outside world. delusional possibly.

Increasing the blocksize is not scaling. It only gives linear transaction increase with size increase. With second layer you get exponential throughout increase

You are smarter than Satoshi?

"A higher limit can be phased in once we have actual use closer to the limit and make sure it's working OK.

Eventually when we have client-only implementations, the block chain size won't matter much. Until then, while all users still have to download the entire block chain to start, it's nice if we can keep it down to a reasonable size.

With very high transaction volume, network nodes would consolidate and there would be more pooled mining and GPU farms, and users would run client-only. With dev work on optimising and parallelising, it can keep scaling up.

Whatever the current capacity of the software is, it automatically grows at the rate of Moore's Law, about 60% per year." SN 2010

Giant blocks stored forever with fucking movies and music and shit stored on chain... Are you retarded? Why even have a blockchain? It is just going to converge down to one node run by Calvin and Craig that can host everything, the centralization pressure is insane with this setup.

Use your brain retard. Hypothetically if each transaction takes 1kb and you increase blocksize to 1mb then you get 1000 transactions, if you increase to 2mb then you get 2000. Transactions scale linearly to size increase. With second layer you can use a single lightning channel transaction to anchor millions of additional transactions.

If the ethereum devs understood Craig's design they wouldn't be having scaling problems.

Everything that needs to be done can be done within the original Bitcoin script. The nonsense about it not being "turing complete" comes from a misunderstanding of how computation in Bitcoin works.
