This is false, Bitcoin script is now proven to be Turing complete and you can run all kinds of things on Bitcoin - it is a distributed super computer

https://www.prnewswire.co.uk/news-releases/bitcoin-sv-is-turing-complete-creating-artificial-life-inside-bitcoin-879926321.html

The Game of Life: In 2019 Xiaohui Liu was at a Bitcoin SV meetup in San Francisco. He spoke briefly on how we hoped Bitcoin would provide a solution to multiple problems inherent to Silicon Valley companies.

Xiaohui's project, sCrypt, was a fully functioning Bitcoin Script compiler in C++. Xiaohui has continually used the familiar language of C++ to show other programmers what is possible inside of Bitcoin Script.

"An easy way to validate Wright's claim would be to use Bitcoin Script to replicate a Turing-complete system such as the Rule 110 or Conway's Game of Life. Xiahoui made this easy for us by releasing a boilerplate code for Conway's Game of Life in C++. The Game of Life is a cellular automaton that is played on a 2-dimensional grid."

(...)

"By creating an initial configuration on the blockchain one can observe how it evolves. Since Conway's Game of Life is Turing-complete, one can replicate it on the Bitcoin blockchain, then we can have demonstrable proof that Bitcoin is, for all intents and purposes, Turing-complete. If you're wondering why this hasn't already been done in Bitcoin's history, a quick look at the code in Bitcoin Script would make it apparent why. The script is quite large, and would not be possible on the BTC chain. Because Bitcoin SV is the only blockchain that implements Satoshi's original design, this is only possible on Bitcoin SV."

> von Neumann
A Von Neumann machine is one which has common program and data address space.
Not all computers do, notable examples or CPUs which have separate data and code buses are AVR and PIC16.
This is useful in embedded systemes, because code memory is read-only, while data area is read-write.
This other architecture is called Harvard btw.
In case of Bitcoin or ETH, the ledger is read-only, but the mempool is read-write.
Smart contract (code) is first written to RW area (mempool) and commited to a RO area (ledger).
On execution the contract is then read from RO ledger, and uses RW area (mempool) as a scratch space.
This is closer to Harvard architecture than VN.
So the schizo is right on this.
> 256 bits
A machine is referred to N-bit if the pointer size is N-bits.
In Bitcoin addresses are 256-bit, and since addresses can be used as data pointers (e.g. instead of moving tokens we can move data or code!) this makes it 256-bit system.
You are literally using this feature with all pajeet ERC-20 tokens on ETH.
A pajeet writes a smartcontract to the blockchain and the system gives it a 256-bit address.
You then input this 256-bit smart contract address to trigger it.
This is literally like a call by pointer.
You can also store data this way, so the smart contact can read it on execution.
So the schizo is right again
> signatures
The problem with Bitcoin is that the network is secured by doing a useless SHA256 computaion.
Since it's the energy input that matters not the nature of the computation, this could be used for useful computation instead.
Third win for schizo!

There is one aspect which is often missed.
Bitcoin was DESIGNED as Turing-complete.
It's a fucking virtual machine.
However Blockstream devs castrated it by removing conditional opcodes and upholding the 1MB block limit.
This is why ETH was created, it literally reintroduced features which Blockstream removed!

Indeed there seems to be a pattern.
Each time the system becomes succesful, the computation functionality is overlooked in favor of moving tokens.
This increases the tx price which prices out computation uses.
Then the computational functionality gets removed because nobody uses it anyway.

ALSO:
"The oracle problem", see LINK which is supposed to solved it.
There should be no oracle problem, because there should be no fucking oracles!
Let's say that the smart contact needs external data, like this:
STATE[n] := STATE[n-1] + EXT_DATA
So each miner pulls in EXT_DATA form whatever they think is the right source, and runs a corresponding variant of the calculation.
The consesus algorithm (miner vote) then decides which variant is committed into the ledger.

The redpill is that back in 2011 Bitcoin did everything which ETH does and more.
See this: https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Script#Opcodes
You have OP_IF which is a conditional jump.
You have OP_VERIFY which decides if tx commits (state gets updated) or not based on the computation value.
You have arithmethic opcodes like OP_ADD or OP_SUB (Note they have disabled multiplication and division!).
You can put arbitraly shit on the stack with OP_PUSHDATA.
You can put arbitrary shit into ledger with OP_RETURN.
You can load input data, run computation and decide what to do based on result!
It's a programming environment.
Literally the only thing missing is OP_CALL which invokes another smartcontract by address.
Guess what was the killer feature of ETH?
Ability to call smart contracts!
Literally adding one instruction to BTC VM achieves the same result!

Ahem... *clears throat*

Here's the real crypto redpill:

Craig Wright is unironically Satoshi Nakamoto. Blockstream - owned by Bilderberg group - intentionally crippled BitCoin by refusing to raise the blocksize cap as was the original design, this caused the adoption and growth in BitCoin to stagnate and collapse due to the artificially high transaction fees imposed by tiny blocks. BitCoin would be at least $50,000 by now if it wasn't for Blockstream, they don't want BitCoin to challenge the central banking system which Craig has spoken out against multiple times.

The original BitCoin protocol lives on as Bitcoin SV (Satoshi's Vision). Craig's company nChain has been hard at work to eliminate the CPU bottleneck in the Bitcoin node software which was originally only single-threaded, rumour has it BSV miners are upgrading to Xeon Phi processors (64 cores) which the code is now being optimised for (thanks to the work by Steve Shadders). This is due to be finished by February 2020 for the Return to Genesis upgrade which will remove all limits in the BSV protocol code and lock down the protocol, with the software limitations removed BSV will be ready for unbounded scaling with the short term goal of sustained 1 Terabyte blocks and millions of transactions per second.

This breakthrough in cheap free-flowing data and sound instant money will create a 4th Industrial Revolution as companies compete to start making ever more powerful computers, faster bandwidth, cheaper and more electricity to mine the Bitcoin blockchain. Mining will be the biggest and most advanced industry on Earth, an expected Bitcoin price of millions of dollars is not unreasonable at this level of scale.
