The Centbee Show 53 - Passing Off Bitcoin!

Join hosts Lorien Gamaroff and Kage 'The Original' Ntshingila in this compelling episode of the Centbee show as they unravel the contentious issue of BTC being promoted as the original Bitcoin.

Dive deep into the legal concept of 'passing off' and explore how market perception, driven by hype and misinformation, has led to BTC's high valuation despite deviating from Satoshi Nakamoto's original vision. They discuss critical modifications like 'Replace-by-fee' and Segregated Witness (Segwit), their impact on transaction costs and finality, and the real differences between BTC and Bitcoin SV (BSV).

Additionally, they delve into Dr. Craig Wright's groundbreaking trillion-dollar lawsuit against BTC promoters for misrepresentation, and the potential implications for the crypto industry.

This episode is packed with valuable insights, eye-opening discussions, and an exploration of what the real Bitcoin should represent. Tune in to uncover the truth about Bitcoin's identity crisis and understand why Centbee is championing Bitcoin as peer-to-peer digital cash.
