I don't want to have to start being a total 'dick' about this, but everyone should realize that my "Threshold of Originality" (in regards to the #Bitcoin #BTC logo) can be legally exercised over the entire cryptocurrency industry.

I think your attempt at rent-seeking here is petty and selfish, and it will ultimately be unsuccessful. It's a move worthy of CSW himself. That's just my opinion, so it doesn't really matter.

The important difference here being that CSW has zero actual "Threshold of Originality" over anything to do with Bitcoin, whatsoever.

Whereas, I quite clearly do.  Roll Eyes

Re: Bitcoin has no intrinsic value

"... #Bitcoin is a commodity money, "digital cash system".

- https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commodity_money

"Commodity money is money whose value comes from a commodity of which it is made."

The intrinsic (base) value of bitcoin is from electricity, CPU time and cryptography (math / pow).

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Commodity_money "


- https://twitter.com/BitcoinFX_XBT/status/1510943103431380992

Commodity money wiki - Excerpt: "Commodity money is money whose value comes from a commodity of which it is made. Commodity money consists of objects having value or use in themselves (intrinsic value) as well as their value in buying goods. This is in contrast to representative money, which has no intrinsic value but represents something of value such as gold or silver, in which it can be exchanged, and fiat money, which derives its value from having been established as money by government regulation. ..."

...

"When satoshi wrote the whitepaper and launched #Bitcoin #BTC had zero dollar value.

The first exchange rates were calculated as follows ...

Technically only bartering existed when satoshi released #Bitcoin to the public."

...

"Arguably, bitcoins have always had a (base) "intrinsic value" as intangible commodity money, as above.

Of course, today's pricing stems from other market factors, finite supply (supply and demand) etc, etc.

Something is only ever worth what someone else is willing to exchange!"

All and any use of the BSV "centred", "yellow" (unofficial Bitcoin) logo(s) and BCH "left tilted ", "green" (unofficial Bitcoin) logo(s) has breached my Threshold of Originality, as originator of the current Bitcoin BTC "right tilted", "orange" logo design and I have requested that they Cease and Desist.
Have you ever received any reply regarding this issue from some member of CSW, Roger Ver or anyone else connected with them?
I am sure that I saw more shitcoins that used same logo with minor changes or different colors but they are probably even less irrelevant than this two.
There is one website called forkdrop with most Bitcoin forks ever created:

The Gapcoin Network / gapcoin.club nodes and infrastructure are in the process of being upgraded.

It is therefore recommended for Gapcoin node / wallets to add the following addnodes asap:

gapcoin.conf ...

addnode=45.77.9.74:31469
addnode=45.77.88.125:31469

In wallet ...

Help > Debug window > Console (Tab) and enter the following lines at the prompt:

addnode 45.77.9.74:31469 add

addnode 45.77.88.125:31469 add

...

If you don't have a Gapcoin wallet yet you can download the latest release here (and start CPU mining for gapcoins in your own wallet!):

- https://github.com/gapcoin-project/gapcoin-core/releases/

- https://gapcoin-project.github.io/

...

For the extended GUI release on ubuntu / linux, open a new terminal window with Ctrl + Alt + T

wget https://github.com/gapcoin-project/gapcoin-core/releases/download/0.16.3.1.X/gapcoin-0.16.3-x86_64-linux-gnu.tar.gz

I don't get it. If the logo is in the public domain, then how can its use be restricted?

I maintain Threshold of Originality over the current Bitcoin BTC logo / design concept. I can therefore apply (and legally enforce) Trademarks in jurisdictions.

Use of any "left tilted ", "green" (unofficial Bitcoin) logo is therefore in breach of my Threshold of Originality.

Use of any "centred", "yellow" (unofficial Bitcoin) logo is therefore in breach of my Threshold of Originality.

...

BCH and BSV are both copies / forks of BTC.

In terms of trademark branding, BCH and BSV have modified the officially recognised BTC logo.

Effectively the BCH and BSV logos (and blockchains up to the forked blocks) are counterfeit.

Latest episode from January 28 Dr Bitcoin - Mo Money Mo Problems:

@BitcoinFX are you planning to start a lawsuit and legal action against Craig Faketoshi Wright, his partners in crime (some of them are active trolls in this forum) and other people who stole, plagiarized and edited Bitcoin logo that you created?
Changing a color or tilt does not make logo original, and it's a obvious case of stealing that reminds me on recent case of Croatian euro design scandal.
You can read more about that in this article:
