BTC started out as Bitcoin (now Bitcoin Core), screwed up the original protocol, BCH (B.Cash) forked, was on the right path, started screwing up the protocol, BSV forked (from BCH), returned to the original protocol (BSV is the only real Bitcoin).

So, when you say "the original protocol", does that mean just like it was during the first couple of years? No SegWit, no RBF, and 1MB blocks? Or have there been some changes? It's interesting to see this tug of war for the Bitcoin name.

My understanding is that as a protocol the same interfaces that were there originally as well as the blocks are constructed the same. Sure there are code updates but the way the blocks are constructed and the way you query it remains the original.
In addition over time the code gets updated but the way you build on it will not change. Like building on TCP you wouldn't want the protocol to change.
Oh, OK, that makes sense. Thanks for clarifying!
same as orginal but with miner decided blocksize cap and bcash's dynamic dificulty adjustment. The latter will be changed when it is possible down the road
DAA (difficulty adjustment) is now every 144 blocks but will be going back to 2016 like BTC. **
Cool. Wouldn't a more responsive difficulty adjustment be more beneficial, though? Never know with mining hashpower...
