Bitcoin SV (BSV) is a cryptocurrency that originated from a hard fork of the Bitcoin Cash blockchain in 2018, which itself had split from the original Bitcoin network the year before. The project positions itself as a continuation of the protocol described in Satoshi Nakamoto's white paper and the early Bitcoin client software, seeking to preserve what its supporters consider the original design of Bitcoin as a peer-to-peer electronic cash system. The network is built as a smart contract platform and operates on a Proof of Work consensus mechanism. Its developers have removed artificial block size limits and re-enabled certain scripting commands that were restricted in other Bitcoin-derived chains. This technical approach is intended to support high transaction throughput at very low fees, enabling micropayments and a broader range of enterprise applications, including tokens, smart contracts, and on-chain data management. BSV functions within the broader family of Bitcoin forks and is distinguished by its emphasis on unbounded on-chain scaling and alignment with the earliest iterations of the Bitcoin protocol.
