Cool, so that's what the Bitcoin forks are doing right?

Entire crypto scams are about it.

BSV still the true DNA and lots of things are protected by nChains patents.

So try to complete against original BitCoin, but choose a different name like Litecoin did, btc could be called SegwitCoin, that s fine

Let's forget personalities and agendas for a moment, humor us ...

Imagine being the originator (or not) of a project released to the world as free and open source software.

Imagine returning to the project years later and being unable to provide any publicly verifiable proof whatsoever of being said originator.

Imagine creating a copy of a copy of said project and then claiming it to be the original project.

Imagine trying to copyright and patent said software without proving that your the originator.

Imagine instead providing a plethora of proven false information and forged documents to the contrary and in a court of law.

Imagine being part of a community that would think any of the above was OK either now or in the future.

Imagine trying to solve a transaction volume scaling issue by instead storing unlimited amounts of data on chain.

Imagine thinking its OK to endorse other software developers to effectively build on quick sand.

Imagine being a crypto exchange that thinks its OK to list and allow trade of the forked chain against itself.

Imagine being a regulator, law maker or law enforcer that allows the above to persist.

Imagine thinking the above is a vision of sound money, a store of value or digital cash.

Imagine patenting a free and open source software protocol (effectively copyleft) and thinking you might try to enforce them.

Imagine following, supporting or investing in any of the above.

Imagine thinking that big business is not going to see straight through all of this and is going to use and embrace it wholeheartedly.

CSW is not Satoshi and BSV is not Bitcoin.

Prove me wrong !

"You can not patent code. You can only patent an invention which is implemented in your code. An invention is a new and unique way of doing something. Most of all, it must be something nobody did before. If anyone used the same technique which you describe in your patent, that's called prior art and invalidates your patent. So trying to get a patent on something somebody else invented and implemented in code would be futile. ..."
