I have to get some words down as there’s no point identifying madness after the fact.

I truly cannot get my head around it. All I can say is that I’m profoundly grateful to be witness to it. Here’s where we’re at:

• Dr Craig Wright (CSW) is suing a number of key influencers in the blockchain space for libelling him.
• As a result of CSW taking legal action there was an immense show of solidarity on social media in opposition. This show of solidarity culminated in many exchanges delisting Bitcoin SV (BSV).

I’m sick of hearing people say that they don’t care who Satoshi is, or that it doesn’t matter.

I care who Satoshi is because it does matter, a lot. There are a couple of reasons:

• Satoshi is the genius inventor of a protocol that beautifully combines economics with cryptography. There was no precedent for bitcoin prior to bitcoin. The invention was not simply a trivial adjustment of existing ideas, but an enormous leap. The invention of Bitcoin is a paradigm shift.
  • The implication is, if Satoshi were talking today, I would be listening. Satoshi’s ideas would influence me today, more than anyone else’s.
• Satoshi likely has control of approximately one million bitcoins or 5.5% of the total supply.
  • The implication is, Satoshi could exert enormous influence on the market prices of BSV, BCH and BTC. The key driver of security in all of these coins (currently at least) is coin price, as hash power is BSV, BCH, BTC agnostic.
