Apart from being a censorship-resistant store of value, Bitcoin’s main use case is trading. What most people, including the media, don’t understand is that's not inherently a bad thing. The post Skeptic's lens: Volatility is a feature, not a bug? appeared first on The Block.

The dominating topic of discussion throughout the last week has been the drama around Bitcoin SV (BSV).

Bitcoin SV is the brain-child of Craig Wright with support from Calvin Ayre, Kevin Pham and Jack Liu. Bitcoin SV forked off from Bitcoin Cash last November and expanded the block size from 32MB to a maximum size of 128MB.

Just when it seemed that BSV was fading into irrelevancy by market forces alone, Calvin Ayre tweeted on March 29 that Craig Wright had begun filing lawsuits “against those falsely denying he is Satoshi.” Wright continues to claim he is Satoshi Nakamoto even though he has failed to provide the only evidence necessary — to digitally sign a message with the key associated with the genesis block.
