What is the most interesting/exciting script that was made possible by the Genesis upgrade?
Non-standard scripts can finally be used without limits on the Bitcoin SV blockchain thanks to the Genesis upgrade. We think that this will accelerate the innovation and we will soon see a variety of new scripts being used on a regular basis.
What is the one that is the most exciting, interesting and/or powerful in your opinion? Which new use cases will it enable?
What will replace OP_CHECKLOCKTIMEVERIFY & OP_CHECKSEQUENCEVERIFY after the Genesis upgrade?
Since these two opcodes will be removed after Genesis and (from my understanding) nLockTime works in a slightly different way (prevents transaction from being included in a block vs. UTXO being locked until given time/block height), how will be possible to achieve same functionality after that?
Is it possible to build a locking/redeem script using other opcodes that achieves the same result? Or is there something else?
Which exchange should be used?
Of all the exchanges mentioned in Discord, Telegram, Slack and Twitter, none seems to stand out as the obvious choice. All seems to have had their good share of shenanigans, on way or another. Either by delisting, which is an obvious no go, or more dangerous business models like hyperleveraging, crypto loans and worse.
Which miners already support Merchant API?
Are there any miners that already support Merchant API? What are the URLs of their Merchant API endpoints?
Which transactions are available from "getrawtransaction" RPC call when "-txindex" is disabled?
I noticed that even with -txindex disabled getrawtransaction RPC call still returns transactions. I assume that without the full index it will still return transactions that node software needs for other reasons (wallet transactions, UTXOs, …). But what are those cases? Which types of transactions are available even without the full transaction index? And what happens if I request a transaction that is not available?
Which will be the first BSV application that will catch mainstream adoption?
Now, this will obviously require some speculation, but why not. There are many exciting Bitcoin SV applications being released practically at a daily basis, but they are arguably mostly used by the (still small in grand scheme of things) BSV community.
I predict that at some point we’ll see one/some of those applications gain attention of the general public and take off - probably dragging the entire ecosystem with them.
If you could bet which (or what kind of) app that will be, what would you bet on?
Why does a bitcoin client from 2015 sync to the BTC chain if BSV is the unbroken chain?
I have been asked this question a number of times and haven’t found an adequate answer.
