Specifications
About Bitcoin SV (BSV/USD)
Bitcoin SV forked from Bitcoin Cash in November 2018, led by Craig Wright and Calvin Ayre who argued that the original Satoshi Nakamoto protocol should be restored and scaled to handle enterprise data volumes on-chain. Unlike Bitcoin Core's off-chain scaling approach via the Lightning Network, or Bitcoin Cash's moderate block increase, BSV pursued unbounded block sizes to handle not just payments but arbitrary data storage and enterprise application transactions directly on-chain. The BSV network has demonstrated technically large blocks, processing gigabyte-scale blocks, but has struggled to attract developer adoption commensurate with its technical claims. BSV has been delisted from major exchanges including Binance and Coinbase due to controversies surrounding its leadership. BSV/USD on StoicFX is a CFD, no BSV tokens are purchased or held on your behalf.

FAQ
What is the difference between Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, and Bitcoin SV?
All three share the original Bitcoin codebase but diverged through contentious forks. Bitcoin maintained the 1MB block limit and added the Lightning Network for scaling. Bitcoin Cash forked in 2017 to increase block sizes to 8MB and later 32MB, arguing that on-chain scaling was more faithful to the original vision. Bitcoin SV forked from Bitcoin Cash in 2018 and removed all artificial block size limits, pursuing unbounded scaling with restored original script opcodes that Satoshi Nakamoto included but later versions of Bitcoin removed.
Why has BSV been delisted from multiple major exchanges?
BSV was delisted from Binance, ShapeShift, Kraken, and other exchanges following controversies surrounding Craig Wright's claims and the decision by those platforms to no longer support the asset. The stated reasons varied but generally cited community welfare and the exchanges' own discretionary listing policies. Delistings significantly reduced BSV's accessible liquidity and mainstream visibility, making it primarily available on smaller or decentralized exchanges.
What is BSV's actual on-chain usage like?
BSV has demonstrated the technical capability to process very large blocks, and some applications, including data anchoring services and micropayment demos, have generated real BSV transactions. However, independent analysis has shown that a significant portion of BSV's transaction volume has come from a small number of applications generating data transactions rather than a broad organic user base comparable to Bitcoin or Ethereum's application ecosystems.
Does trading BSV/USD on StoicFX mean I hold tokens?
No. BSV/USD on StoicFX is a Contract for Difference. You trade BSV's price against the US dollar without holding any tokens. To transact on the Bitcoin SV network, use BSV applications, or participate in the ecosystem directly, you would need actual BSV through an exchange that lists it or a compatible wallet.
