I cant seem to find the excerpt in the whitepaper which calls for lawsuits when you disagree with consensus of the network? Are we sure that was in Satoshi's Vision?

[US Department of Homeland Security officials have] had great success with tracking and analyzing Bitcoin transactions already. They are now looking for similar solutions for tracking "privacy coins."

The message is clear: Thou shalt not scale on the blockchain.

  1. BTC was crippled by co-opting the dev eam (with the excusethreat of 1MB change being contentious), thus the blockchain itself which is the primary permissionless part of Bitcoin was limited as to drive the bulk of the tx's to a 2nd layer which is less threatening to fiat.

  2. Since BTC is open source and can be forked most of the resources were aimed at preventing hardforking from ever successfully happening and to force everyone into their standard of choice - the doomed to fail version of Bitcoin. When BCH forked it was the first real attempt threatening to break free from the chain they control.

  3. nChain was created in advance in preparation to the eventuality someone will try to make a permissionless version outside their control and was meant to either try to take over the main client of the uncrippled chain ("fulfilling Satoshi's vision"), or to disrupt the chain if that fails.

nChain's endgame was to prevent BTC from hardforking successfully.

Any other chain which will stand a real chance to be uncrippled will suffer the same fate as BCH.

This isn't a conspiracy theory, it was done in some well known examples when standards were crippled to decrease their disruptive potential (e.g. https standard).

Some BTC supporters agree with the above and believe the powers that be are siding with BTC, but in reality what they're doing isn't helping BTC succeed but making it the only coin which could succeed in case people still want to use it crippled.

What kind of vision? BSV -> BS-V

Words matters. Words are spells in our thoughts which affect our mind and thus how we view things around us. They are like code in our mental operating system. It's important that we know what code is running, who wrote it, what it does and why it's doing what it's doing.

From discussing the term "Satoshi's vision" in this thread, it has become abundantly obvious to me that the "Bitcoin SV" originators are attempting to cast a spell to covertly alter our thinking and thus our behaviour. It's an attempt to hack our thoughts.

As pointed out by u/jessquit in this brilliant comment, "Satoshi's vision" and "Satoshi's Bitcoin" are terms dating back to at least the inception of Bitcoin Cash. I'm pretty sure I've heard those terms used even before then to refer to the original guiding principles and goals of Bitcoin.

From here on out I am going to refer to "Bitcoin SV" (AKA "Bitcoin: Satoshi's Vision") as simply BS-V.

BS: bullshit.

V: vision

I don't think BS-V represents Satoshi's vision. Not the one that inspired me quite long ago now. I think it's the opposite: I think this bullshit vision (BS-V) is designed to damage, subvert and poison Satoshi's vision. I think BS-V is designed to damage the one crypto currency project which has the best chance at fully realising that vision: Bitcoin Cash.

If you share my beliefs about "Bitcoin SV", then consider joining me in use of the term BS-V to refer to it. I think most people will know that it refers to "Bitcoin SV" when they see it, as the popular "Bitcoin SV" ticker is "BSV". The addition of hyphen makes all the difference.
