@462 The flat earthers are insufferable, literally the dumbest people you'll come across, completely demoralized to hate everything they can't comprehend and absolutely incapable of educating themselves. I've posted many obvious proofs to them about the moon landings and the archives of evidence of one of the most documented events in human history and their ideology is so moronically intrenched i've learned i'd have more luck educating my dog who would at least try to understand for a few seconds even thou it couldn't possibly comprehend. Mute them and move on, they are worthless minds, not even empty vessels but more akin to a bucket with a big hole in it, useless.

Yeah it's bizarre. He tried to teach everyone a lesson but got himself schooled. I think he has the blocks but not the paper trail and that's problematic for a bunch of reasons, financial, security, family etc.
Once that card is played, his opponents can easily move around him. They could just buy up all his coins, Saylor and the ETFs would soak them up now, whereas 4 years ago he could have collapse the space and become the most hated man in the world. They could BIP the Satoshi coins out of existence as a threat to the network.
He had to prove identity for all the lawsuit stuff he had planned which helps with all the IP stuff that doesn't work on BTC anymore since BTC was neutered.
He's just made a lot of errors trying to outsmart everyone but he had too many people looking into him, finding enough smoke to suggest a fire and it's blown up in his face.
Both sides wanted Satoshi dead but for different reasons.

I don't think either side made a compelling case. COPA showed the digital data was suspect but didn't really offer hard proof that there isn't a logical explanation. They claim fraud but really all they proved was suspicion.
CSW didn't put up anything that was solid either because he wants to rely on history and education rather than digital trail.
The judge should demand a signing.
If CSW can sign block 1 then all the COPA evidence becomes worthless and just suggests CSW either made up missing pieces to satisfy a timeline he deleted or 3rd parties interjected into his records to tarnish them on purpose.
If CSW can't sign then COPAs circumstantial evidence becomes more solid and CSW's history becomes more of a story of someone who was close to inventing Bitcoin but got beat to the punch and since took ownership of it after the fact.

Everyone is definitely jumping the gun, the judge hasn't given a verdict at all and was reviewing the points that he will be judging on.
But even people on CSW's side new going in that he could'nt make a good case unless he signed/moved and he refused to do it.
Now that's his only choice and one that could have solved this years ago instead of going through all of this.
It's possible to have made Bitcoin without having kept receipt of it in a way that would satifisy a court 15+ years later, especially if it comes down to digital meta data forensics which is highly subjective and especially when it was highly criminal to start a new money system that was used for darknet activity - you might want to delete your history if that was you.
There's no logic to say that 'the real Satoshi' has an unblemished archive proving their work either. COPA just want to nuke CSW out of the picture but they have also made it virtually impossible for anyone to come forward as Satoshi now, which is the best result they could get.

BSV would have been slaughtered if it was trading on Binance and Coinbase but because they already banned it, it's largely unaffected. This is also why it wouldn't have rallied much if the outcome was reversed.

BSV is a long haul project that will either die out because the world has moved on from blockchain and into global centralized systems or it will rise out of the crypto ashes when inevitably all other systems fail at their ponzi apexes.

Relying on a single Judge to make sense of 15+ years worth of fighting after a couple weeks of hearing muckraking arguments about personalities was never a good idea. It would have been great for CSW personally if he won but wouldn't change much else, the other side wouldn't accept it and it would only allow CSW more legal fights which would tarnish BSV even more.

BSV has placed it's stake as a technology diverted from crypto and focused on a completely different set of industry, that now needs to be it's sole focus. Forget crypto, it is now it's own beast, stop trying to tame it.

BSV will succeed or fail based off it's technology, nothing else. Every other token will either be absorbed by ETFs/Blackrock/Mastercard/etc or fail because they have no purpose once the crypto space is cleaned out and regulated.

If CSW truely is Satoshi, then he should allow "Craig" to be hung on the cross of public opinion and resurrect anon-Satoshi, start posting signed messages and teach them properly about the technology. That is who they worship, that is who needs to talk to them now.

The legal system will never bend to his will just because he has a wheelbarrow of diplomas, the crypto beast will never be tamed as long as scammers can milk it for billions without consequence and the central planners will never let their system be made redundant by a commoner with a big idea.

It's a perfect time for Satoshi to return down from the mountain and teach the way. It will take time but people are ready to hear from Satoshi again, CSW doesn't need to sign his name to it anymore.

I post these to point out the arrogance of low IQ flat earth morons.
Imagine the arrogance they have to dismiss these achievements. There's no information or fact you can present to them, they are completely demoralised people. To be so ignorant that you can wave away the efforts of 10's of thousands of people who worked on these programs and think you have all the answers when you have zero knowledge of the most basic things. All the scientists, all the mathematicians, all the engineers, all the support crews, all the mission planners, all their blood, sweat & tears to deliver a gift to humanity of inspiration and greatness - their life work, their proof of work - all dismissed because your flat earth moronic mind can't comprehend how a human could push themselves, train themselves, education themselves to do something amazing, to risk their life, to go somewhere no one has ever been before, to do something no one has done before. The modern moron is a pathetic excuse for a human, they achieve nothing, they know nothing yet they have an arrogance so large they think they can wipe out the works of others with the same prejudice as the worst tyrants in history.

Nigeria, the country often synonymous with online scams is looking like the country that could break the Tether scam wide open. Ironic. Nigeria is also heavily working with nChain and BSV to develop a tech sector in blockchain education… 🤔

Binance to discontinue Nigerian currency services as legal squabble deepens

Nigeria is also one of the world’s biggest crypto markets, but the Nigerian government has demanded almost $10 billion in compensation from Binance, which it accuses of manipulating foreign exchange rates via currency speculation and rate fixing, and arrested two of the firm’s senior executives last week, according to multiple media reports.

Neil Armstrong photographed just minutes after becoming the first man to walk on the moon, 1969

"The look of pure joy, accomplishment and disbelief is just a testament to what the mankind can achieve. Aldrin snapped this shot of a teary-eyed Armstrong moments after he returned to the spacecraft and removed his helmet.

His ecstasy is palpable; it is the face of a man so clearly awe-struck that all he can do is grin and cry. Armstrong would later describe his emotional state as “elated, ecstatic and extremely surprised that we were successful” – and we see it all, right here.

“It suddenly struck me that, that tiny pea, pretty and blue, was the Earth. I put up my thumb and shut one eye, and my thumb blotted out the planet Earth. I didn’t feel like a giant. I felt very, very small”.

BCH & BSV adjust difficulty fairly quickly when ever hash increases in order to stop a big miner from just taking over, it's way more dynamic than BTC that sets the difficulty on a longer time line. So when BTC is getting competitive, it can be more profitable for a miner to switch to BCH / BSV for short term gains, they can pop in a mine for a few days, then leave and let the difficulty come down, then join back in. I think it's a good time for smaller miners to scoop up blocks on BCH / BSV to dump coins into the halvening instead of trying to compete for BTC blocks which could explain some of these price rises. I dont' think the prices are to do with CSW court case because most people either aren't following it or have lasers in their eyes and won't believe it if he wins. Plus BSV is so hard to get having been removed from the major exchanges that it makes big buy ins difficult which is what will be needed for a big and stable price pump verses a short term price pump from opportunistic miners.

You won't answer why a satellite can't bend a signal around a sphere so you act dumb about what satellites are for. 🙄
Of course cables have been historically cheaper than launching satellites, that is the point of why cables have been used to answer your original post. Satellites would cost a lot of money to put up in space. They weren't used for 99% of human data because it wasn't cost effective for that purpose compared to running cable. They were used for military and intelligence, where costs don't matter, to communicate in private networks outside of public networks. They used line of sight networking, not cost effective for 99% of human data use but perfect for militaries and such orgs who want to limit their MiM attacks with direct signals. Is this really hard to understand? Do you know why militaries have big navy boats in the ocean with lots of communication gear on them? Do you understand why the USA built Pine Gap in the middle of the Australian desert?
Data use today dwarfs data use decades ago, new technologies required. Data is worth more today than decades ago, new attack vectors emerging. Using space is becoming more cost effective as technology evolves. Cables will always be used and new satellite tech will become cheaper. Musk has NEW tech that puts 10's of thousands of little relays in space to bounce the signals around the SPHERE Earth. He has made it cheaper, he has made data accessible where laying cable is difficult like in rural areas. These new relays are disposable, if they break or malfunction, they can send new ones up but the network can adjust in the meantime because it's a mesh network unlike military line of sight networks using expensive secure satellite systems. Mesh networks aren't as secure, man in the middle attack vectors increase but for non-sensitive data like normal internet use it's fine. For highly sensitive military networking, it's not and they will continue with large expensive satellite systems where budgets don't matter. Welcome to the world where all 3 systems are in use for different reasons as technology and humanity evolves.

Your not willing to listen to any explanation, that's the point.
You deliberately just say 'fake, cgi, green screen' and then post 10 more nonsensical things.
I'm not trying to educate a liar, i'm pointing out to everyone else that may get influenced by your demoralisation propaganda that your a pied piper of bullshit. You do this deliberately for some bizarre reason, it's a weird compulsion to just make shit up and lie to people.
People wonder why every generation is getting dumber - your an example of why, your efforts contribute to this by diluting the information base with poison. Instead of seeking answers, people get lost in a rabbit hole of nonsense created by people like you. Dumb people amplify it which creates a feedback loop which pushes real information down under a layer of garbage. When young people search the internet, they get fed nonsense and become stupid. Then we end up with UN, WEF, Feds claiming we have to 'combat misinformation!' which just walks everyone into their spiders web of censorship. Problem, reaction, solution. Congratulations on being part of the problem.

Be wary of BCH & BSV price 'pumps'. They are likely not due to the CSW case but to miner hash. BCH is first to reach halvening in about 30 days, BSV will halve in around 40 days - both before BTC. There's a lot of 'unknown' or 'not friendly' hash going into BCH & BSV to scoop up coins before it halves. This is giving the price a short term jump but expect this miner to dump the hash & the coins when the difficulty adjusts to the new hash. Basically, they are using the 'it's more profitable to mine BCH & BSV' short term gains to get coins to dump while the pickings are good and BTC is becoming expensive to mine.
What it does show is miners will move their hash to the most profitable chain when things get tough on the BTC chain - hash power is the one thing BTC has going for it as it fails at every other metric. BCH has next to no activity at all in it's blocks, it's almost dead. Meanwhile BSV is testing a million tx/s on the teranode testnet, by this time next year those numbers should be on mainnet with new industries and use cases pumping tx into the chain.

BTC has a problem. On one hand it needs the price to be well above $75-95k so miners will stay even after the halvning cuts their rewards in half in 50 days. Currently mining BTC has a cost average of around $50-65k. Todays snapshot shows $65.5k with most miners mining at a loss with a ratio of 1.15. Most miners are barely profitable at todays prices. However, the higher the BTC price goes to try and cover the mining losses, the less actual fiat money exists on the cartels exchanges for people to cash out into. This forces the criminal cartel exchanges to have sudden technical issues when the price spikes as they scramble to move funds around to cover withdrawal requests. This is how ponzi's work. Insiders get bailed out, noobs and plebs get told to HODL until it all collapses.

Flat Earths are liars or morons. Here is another LIAR trying to fool morons. These people have no morals, they are scum.

First, you post a JPEG of a video to prove a point of motion. LIE.
Second, your source has edited the video to make cuts to make it look like the Earth changed direction. LIE.
Thirdly, your 'shadow' is a glove that comes out of the shuttle at the 3min mark in the ACTUAL video linked.

Again, there's no mystery or confusion unless your a dullard moron or a content harvesting liar.

They deliberately act dumb about known things and raise strawman points based off their lies. When this gets pointed out, they'll pivot to something about how the shadows are wrong because most people don't understand the difference between global illumination in space and directional illumination on Earth. They do this because most people won't do any research into finding real answers. That helps them continue making content to fool morons for harvesting who will just believe the liars without question. They claim to want to 'break the matrix' but are actually spinning up another layer of matrix with a fake reality to host morons in.

Flat earth relies on you being dumb, lazy and uninterested in truth so they can hustle you to steal your mind. They are energy vampires.
