OurLadyisGod on Nostr: The tumultuous forks of Bitcoin in 2017, resulting in Bitcoin Cash and later Bitcoin ...
The tumultuous forks of Bitcoin in 2017, resulting in Bitcoin Cash and later Bitcoin SV, can be analogously viewed through the lens of Catholic historical events, especially when approached from a sedevacantist traditionalist perspective. Much like the Protestant Reformation, where Martin Luther and his followers sought to realign the Catholic Church with what they perceived as its original teachings, the creation of Bitcoin Cash was an attempt to return to Bitcoin's foundational vision as a peer-to-peer electronic cash system. This splintering continued with Bitcoin SV, reminiscent of the further divisions within Protestantism, each faction claiming adherence to true teachings. Similarly, the protocol changes in Bitcoin, such as the SegWit implementation, can be likened to the modernist shifts during the Second Vatican Council (Vatican II), which sedevacantists view as deviations from authentic Catholic dogma. In both the realms of faith and cryptocurrency, these divisions underscore the challenges of interpreting foundational texts and beliefs, with factions emerging to preserve what they see as the original vision.
