What is Bitcoin SV?
Bitcoin SV (BSV) is a cryptocurrency that emerged from a Bitcoin Cash hard fork in November 2018. It aims to restore the original Bitcoin protocol and enable massive scaling with unbounded block sizes.
What problem does Bitcoin SV solve?
BSV addresses perceived deviations from the original Bitcoin vision by restoring the original protocol and removing block size limits for enterprise-scale throughput.
