I can't actually see what CSW thinks, I can see Bitcoin as a global money system, BSV is the only version that can scale to that vision. I remain invested in all versions of bitcoin and am developing for all eventualities.
Gold collapsing. Bitcoin UP.

I think BSV is the only blockchain that actually scale. This bull run will make some market participants understand that neither BTC nor ETH scale.
But BSV needs to sort out its communication. Toxic BTC maximalism is a thing, as is toxic BSV maximalism.
I think CSW needs to stop to treat to sue every body in the crypto community and scare away projects, and thus prevent the creation of any network effect, with a constant emphasis on law and regulation. The BSV community think corporations will adopt BSV because of its regulatory compliance, but the reality is that CSW image is currently so bad that not a single corporation will touch this protocol due to the reputation risk caused by CSW bad image.

BSV definitely needs a new face. Anyone want to volunteer to get harassed and trolled forever? No? Well poop. It's going to be hard to shake the mass spam campaign that has happened against CSW, so his image will need to be revitalized, and the image of BTC taken down. Which honestly, should be easy to do, but for some reason people ignore the atrocities of BTC so easily.

Well, BSV is trolled because of CSW. BSV is actually fairly easy to defend, whereas CSW is more difficult to defend.
I am not finding it hard at all to defend and explain the core qualities of BSV, people are rather receptive when this is well formulated. But people who know the history of the industry will invariably criticize CSW, and CSW is harder to defend. I think he is Satoshi but, given his communication, it's a losing battle to try to explain this to someone.
I don't think the image of BTC needs to be taken down. I file that belief under the "toxic BSV maximalism" category.
BSV is not even competing with BTC. And even if the two were competitors, I don't think any energy should be put into criticizing BTC. BSV just need to focus on its mission and everything will fall into place (including the demise of BTC, if it should be that way at the end of the process). The mission should be the focus, not the competitors (and CSW is spending way too much of his energy on trying to talk down the competitors).

@BldSwtTrs your post is spot on from my vantage point.
Once the incumbents can use regulation as a barrier to entry, preventing more efficient competition, as we see in mature markets teh corruption starts a new. Crypto is not there yet, regulation is being used to prevent adoption not encourage it.
When CSW talks about "law and regulation" what I suspect from my own experience is he's just saying if this can happen to me it's defiantly going to happen to you, and your going to be fucked if you've actually been doing XYZ. When I criticize his "law and regulation" position it's because it's having the opposite effect, it's discouraging investment not inviting it. Nobody willingly invites regulation, but we all tolerate it because that's the cost of business.

Totally agree, but BSV and "CSW is Satoshi" maximalism makes it hard to focus on what's important as there is so much ammunition to distract from the things that matter.

The harassment of Big Blockers started well before CSW was on the scene.
The harassment of CSW, imo, is about justifying treating him poorly when he uses his BTC. Or maybe even preventing him from doing so altogether.

I think its a lot more likely (read: not so likely short term) that the companies engaged in blackballing BSV wane in significance over time than that they stop blackballing.
I dont think it would be fruitful to try and change the perception of activists who hold their views because of alterior motives. I do think people with those views are the entrenched miniority leadership in the space.

Hi Everyone.
Still lurking here from time to time, glad to see the discussion continues on, lively and truth seeking.
Even battle hardened from years of Orwellian Core speak, this year has been tough. The depth, scale and efficiency with which sponsored 'science' and the majority of the worlds media have collaborated to scare the population into relinquishing their freedom, for the beginnings of a totalitarian NWO has been truly frightening.
Picard sums it up for me.
Yet in all this darkness, the fires of change have been lit. I've been waiting for a project like this on Bitcoin for nearly a decade.
BSV has its first country.
Here's to a happy new year.

LOL, sitting next to the printer are 8 reams of 500 Sheets of unopened paper that's 4000 pages.
The goal is not to just read it before you vote on it, it is to discuss it, and to try to identify possible externalities and to understand how the bill will serve the outcomes one may want, before one votes.
If people don't see how this process is broken and being hacked I'm afraid things are going from bad to worse.

Lol, SEC complaints are the same one's I warned about back in 2013; "unregistered securities". Along with a centralized, identifiable, know where you live dev team. Oops. It took 7 years for the chickens to come home to roost.

Looks like cooperating with gvt isn't such a good idea given we now have two examples, Ripple and Bitinstant, that got reamed after bending over backwards trying to do so.

yes @lunar TDXP is next level. all trades registered on the blockchain, full control of custody.
comparably, the casino at dragonbsv.io lets you play a real blackjack game, demonstrably fair, on chain. this is miles ahead of passive guessing digits from a block hash, satoshi dice style. (WARNING - the $1 min. bet will break you. not interested in gambling, just in the evolution of the tech.)
i encourage BCH devs to take a look at those apps for benchmarking purposes.

Events like these always stimulate long ago memories of previous nemeses I've argued with. Who remembers Ripple shill head "misterbigg"?
