Bitcoin is open source. You cant file a copyright over it.

You can file the copyright -- anyone can. Whether or not it will be granted is a whole 'nother story.

According to this article, the copyright was already granted to be effective as of April 11, 2019.

Not quite. The registration was granted on April 11. Not the same thing as the copyright being effective.

U.S. copyright registration no. TXu 2-136-996, effective date April 11, 2019, for the paper entitled Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System, with year of completion 2008. The registration recognizes the author as Craig Steven Wright, using the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto.

The coingeek article was extremely well worded propaganda, but propaganda nontheless. I expect SV to fall by 50% within the next 48 hours, but probably sooner.

Wouldn't expect less from the fork-of-a-fork crowd. They seem to be of particularly low-caliber intellect, as evidenced by their guest appearances in this thread.

With a few unexplicable exceptions...

I'm sure Goebbels had an above-average IQ as well.
