say it with me , BSV is a shit fraud

BSV is not fraud, your mistake are the fraud. It's very easy to write without knowing. Do you know a fraudulent project with regular updates and evolutionary follow-up?at some point you'll have to think about your usefulness here on this forum, you think you're invincible, hidden behind your screen to change your nickname to spread shit, it's disappointing that you waste your time unnecessarily and sad that you don't realize it instead of spending your precious time on something really useful, building, helping, learning are useful leads for you, maybe therapy can also cure your jealousy complex disease towards BSV Wright and other targets in your bitcointalk history of written bullshit.

Bitcoin SV version 1.0.0 Release Notes
@richmills3 richmills3 released this on 15 Jan · 567 commits to master since this release

The Bitcoin SV Node team has released version 1.0.0 of the Bitcoin SV Node implementation. This version implements the updates required to support the Genesis hard fork upgrade which is scheduled to activate on February 4, 2020. The specification for the updates to the Bitcoin and Consensus rules is available here.

It is important to note that all installations of Bitcoin SV Node implementation must be upgraded to this release by February 4, 2020. Prior versions of the Bitcoin SV node software are incompatible with the updated rules and will fail after February 4.

Highlighted Changes
Mandatory Consensus Parameters
Mandatory consensus parameters must be configured by the system administrator. The software will terminate immediately if these parameters are not configured.

Hard limit on the block size
The hard limit on the block size is a configuration parameter that specifies the maximum size that a block can be in order for it to be validated by the software. Blocks that are larger than this maximum will not be retrieved by the software or validated.

Maximum Stack Memory Usage During Script Evaluation
This mandatory consensus parameter defines the maximum amount of memory that can be used on the stack by a script during evaluation. If a script attempts to use more stack memory than defined in this consensus parameter, then the evaluation of the script will be terminated and the script fails.

Consensus Changes
Restore the functionality of OP_RETURN
This change restores the function of OP_RETURN to its original design, enabling Script developers to terminate Scripts early and easily, with the possibility of the result of executing the script being valid.

Change the script numeric type from 32 bit numbers to big numbers
This change will dramatically increase the mathematical capabilities of the Bitcoin Script language. 32-bit numbers are very limited in size which makes it very complicated and inefficient to do complex mathematical operations such as signature verification. This change will restore the original design, enhancing the efficiency of complex mathematical operations and enable complex Scripts that provide all kinds of advanced functionality.

Sunset P2SH for new transactions
Pay-to-script-hash (or P2SH) is a mechanism introduced to Bitcoin to enable hiding of output scripts at the time they are created. This is counter to the philosophy of Bitcoin as an honest record of events. Additionally, P2SH use has encouraged wide use of poor privacy practices and divergence from the peer 2 peer workflow practices that are integral to the scaling proposition of Bitcoin. Existing P2SH coins will be unaffected so there is no need to sweep old wallets. This change prevents any new P2SH outputs from being made.

Restore Satoshi style handling of nLockTime & nSequence
These two data fields are integral to the mechanism of payment channels that Satoshi describes as a fundamental mechanism for allowing high speed micropayments on Bitcoin. They have been since repurposed by BTC Core developers for two new op codes. Along with removing those op codes the original usage of nLockTime and nSequence are being restored.

Other Required Change
P2P Relay of transactions with complex scripts
This change will enable the use of complex transactions by all participants of the network. Prior to Genesis, only transactions that were of a standard type, such as payment transactions or plain data transactions, would be distributed across the peer-to-peer network and therefore reach a miner. This meant that if a participant needed to use complex transactions, they would have to find a miner and reach an agreement to confirm the transactions in a block. After Genesis, all transaction types will be relayed across the peer-to-peer network, enabling anyone to use complex transaction types.

Additional Consensus Changes
Genesis Upgrade block height activation mechanism
UTXO age dependent rules
Formal Script Grammar
scriptSig can only contain OP_PUSHDATA operations
Sunset OP_CHECKLOCKTIMEVERIFY and OP_CHECKSEQUENCEVERIFY for new transactions
Add a policy limit on max_script_memory_usage with a default of 100MB
Add a consensus limit on max_script_memory_usage
Remove the consensus limit on the number of signature operations per MB of block space
Remove the consensus limit on the maximum number of signature operations per transaction
Remove the consensus limit on the number of op codes per script
Remove the consensus limit on the maximum script element size
Remove the consensus limit on the maximum number of elements in a script
Remove the consensus limit on the maximum number of public keys per multisig
Increase the consensus limit on the maximum transaction size to 1GB.
Software Enhancements
Parallel Block Validation
Separate processing of non-standard transactions in low priority queue
Set script evaluation timeout policies for standard and non-standard transactions
Tx should be included in inv messages in the order in which they are validated
Enhance tests for Parallel Block Validation.
Common Genesis activation code and command line option.

Fix block send queue overflow
Fix undefined behaviour in bsv::deserialize
Fix bitcoin-cli help getblock
Fix build: Configure should fail when it can’t detect boost

Scaling Test Network reset
Scaling Test Network (STN) Reset
The STN blockchain has grown to over 1TB and it has served its current purpose of producing 2GB blocks and
1 million transactions per block. The STN is being reset to reduce the size of the blockchain (from ~1.5TB to about
1MB).

The Bitcoin SV Node implementation will automatically switch to the new blockchain, however this may take a large amount
of time and it will not automatically clear the blocks from the old blockchain from disk. We recommend that you manually
clear the old block data and start from scratch with the STN. For more information, see the
bitcoinscaling.io website.

The Scaling Test Network has been reset at block height 1. This block has hash
00000000e23f9436cc8a6d6aaaa515a7b84e7a1720fc9f92805c0007c77420c4.
Previous releases of Bitcoin SV node software are not compatiable with this reset. Please upgrade to continue using the STN
Acceptance of low difficutly blocks after 20mn has been disabled to bring behaviour more in line with mainnet
STN Blocks and Chaindata folders can be deleted before running this release.

Education is the key even on BSV, it would be ideal to have a dedicated documentation centre.

To achieve a good BSV education this is already underway. Multi-language and multi-cultural pluralism are a plus not to be neglected.
