Timeline of the CSW-CoinGeek attack on Bitcoin Cash.

Back in March 2018, Rick Falkvinge warned that the BCH community had learned nothing from the Blockstream takeover of Bitcoin, and warned that the BCH community needed to identify toxic sociopaths (like CSW) early on.

Over time, the divide between CSW and many BCH people began to expand.

• Amaury Sechet (creator of Bitcoin Cash, and lead developer for Bitcoin ABC)

• Peter Rizun (Bitcoin Unlimited)

• Vin Armani (CoinText.io)

• Jihan Wu (Bitmain)

• Haipo Yang (ViaBTC & CoinEx.com the BCH-based exchange)

• Jonald Fyookball (Electron Cash wallet)

• Chris Pacia (OpenBazaar.org)

• Emin Gun Sirer

• Rick Falkvinge

CSW, nChain, billionaire Calvin Ayre, CoinGeek are all aligned.

And it appears that they bought up anywhere from 40%-51% of BCH hashpower.

Now they're threatening to launch double spend attacks against BCH exchanges, like CoinEx / ViaBTC.

Basically, CSW / nChain / Calvin / CoinGeek want to create a hardfork (Bitcoin SV), and insist that everyone follow it as BCH, and they'll launch double spend attacks against anyone in the BCH community who doesn't comply.
