Everyone here know's BSV is nowhere near Bitcoin in it's Vision and Scaling atleast.

But COINGEEK is marketing the in a bit different way. They directly put an BUY BSV tab on the top of the page.



They even say that Bitcoin is reborned as BSV, which is a pretty wrong statement in it self.




I landed up on an page showing it being on number 23 on top Crypto News sites as of 4/17/2018.


Source: https://sludgefeed.com/most-popular-cryptocurrency-news-sites-and-blogs/amp/


If you even observe most of the articles published on COINGEEK they are mostly realted to the promotion of BSV.

Doesn't this looks like a sold out news page ?

I don't think such sold out channels should be anywhere where viewers could get a blind one way flow of news. It harm's the overall environment as per I see.

Doesn't this looks like a sold out news page ?

WOULD LIKE TO ADVICE BEING AWARE OF DEPENDING ON THIS TYPE OF ONE SIDED CRYPTO NEWS CHANNELS.


There original account here doesn't seem to be active on bitcointalk either.

Oh good info.
Thank you very much for telling me what news website I should avoid using at all cost.
They use tactics to mix truth with a lie, and maybe some people will catch a bait...

Indeed. As an example of these untruth's, today on Bitcoin's (BTC) network launch day ... CoinGeek has posted the following article ... so, let's debunk it (again!) ...

- https://coingeek.com/happy-birthday-bitcoin-11-years-since-first-software-release/

Quote:

"... As Dr. Craig Wright detailed in his fireside chats at the CoinGeek conferences in Toronto and Seoul in 2019, he worked on the Bitcoin code in his spare time while working at auditing firm BDO. In January 2009 he was finishing up that job, and running a network of 69 computers at separate locations, including his farm in New South Wales... "

...

"Proof-of-Fibre           Craig's cow ranch Bagnoo 2009
1/2

Previously I looked at Craig's claim of having 60+ computers running Bitcoin during Jan 2009. In this part I'll explore his other claim of running those computers from his weekend cow ranch at Bagnoo NSW, Australia"

- https://twitter.com/jimmy007forsure/status/1143461228141924353

"Proof-of-Fibre            Craig's cow ranch Bagnoo 2009
2/2 Conclusion

-No record of a fibre-to-the-home link
-Neighbours have poor internet service
-Evidence that at Craig's ranch there was marginal ADSL, satellite and 3G wireless internet available

Conclusion: No fibre"

- https://twitter.com/jimmy007forsure/status/1143461241316188160

...

When I started running Bitcoin and joined the network <2010 with fully port forwarded nodes I saw (on average) less than <20 (always on) connections. CSW's alleged number of computers running has also been demonstrated to not match with the mining difficulty on the network or actual number of machines on the network. [citation needed].

...

"Talking about 69 computers that Craig #Faketoshi Wright claims to have used for Bitcoin in the beginning... total bollocks too of course. @jimmy007forsure did a beautiful thread about that."
- https://twitter.com/MyLegacyKit/status/1213746750986629120

"Half of those 69 Bitcoin related computers were in his cow ranch in Bagnoo, Craig has claimed.

"I spent money to have fibre laid and opened up a rural town to fast Internet."

Which didn't happen either, of course."

- https://twitter.com/MyLegacyKit/status/1213947602372366336

...

Quote CoinGeek article:

"... Speaking of that 69 computer network, something (Dr. Wright has referred to as a Microsoft update) caused the machines to restart at some point between the Genesis Block and Block 1, putting nodes in the network out of sync. Wright frantically ran (and drove) between the distant locations over the next few days, buying expensive Microsoft licenses, installing a domain and workgroup and creating a forest and WUS server—a process that “took most of that whole week”. Dr. Wright gives this as the reason for the six-day break between Block 0 and the first mined block.

Hal Finney helped with the code to get it all running again, along with advice from Dave Kleiman. Of Kleiman, Wright said “I wouldn’t be sane or whatever else without him...”


"... Note about the “Microsoft Patch Tuesday” incident:

A few people have pointed out that there wasn’t a Microsoft Patch Tuesday between the 3rd and 9th of January. The first Microsoft Security Bulletin for 2009 was actually released on January 13th, though the company sent out an advance notification on January 8th (the notification wouldn’t have caused any restarts though)..."


...

"A Coingeek #Faketoshi story in 3 images. 🤦‍♂️

"and Dave Kleiman" 😂😂😂😂😂

...



...



- https://twitter.com/MyLegacyKit/status/1213700471527034880

...

"And Hal Finney only started bug fixing with Satoshi Nakamoto on Jan 10, 2009 which was AFTER the release. No delays there either.

Craig has been lying about these things quite a few times. The real Satoshi would have had these facts straight, of course."


- https://twitter.com/MyLegacyKit/status/1213728461686218752


"... "There are people who helped when I asked." - #Faketoshi

Meanwhile, the real Satoshi didn't ask, he happily received Hal Finney's first email offering help with "Crash in bitcoin 0.1.0"

That's what you get when #Faketoshi is on a backdating spree. Numerous mistakes. 🤦‍♂️ ..."


- https://twitter.com/MyLegacyKit/status/1213730851667763200

...

Furthermore ...

Whois Satoshi? Known Satoshi IP addresses? ...
- https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5155191.0

Craig Wright is NOT Satoshi. BSV is NOT Bitcoin.

EDIT:

Looks like CoinGeek edited the article(s), ... thus proving they indeed publish 'fake news' ...

"😂 hilarious!

Note that Coingeek deleted the disclaimer (screenshot attached) and the article has been rewritten without mentioning the "update"."


- https://twitter.com/MyLegacyKit/status/1215342366560833543

...

"The first article 6 days ago still says "Also, January 6, 2009, was a Microsoft “Patch Tuesday” which updated and restarted Dr. Wright’s network of 69 machines, throwing them out of sync." though.

That is really pretty LAME from an news crypto channel which says they want to provide fair covarage of the cryptocurrency industry on their website about page.

Media / news businesses are bought and sold, change management or simply go where they can receive more funds.
Obviously, things like this image show how big hypocrites they are. But really, every news we read (from any source!) should be taken with a pinch of salt. We don't know what they reasons are.

What I mean is, OK, this thread is a great eye opener about one news website. But we actually should be careful with all of them.

By now it should be obvious to anyone (besides BSV cult members) that BSV is not Bitcoin and that Craig is an obvious scammer.

The marketing tricks done by the BSV team are incredible, they are willing to spend huge costs controlling the media to convince the public that Craig Wright is the creator of Bitcoin and the Bitcoin SV is reborn Bitcoin. 

some of my friends are very sure that Craig Wright is the real Satoshi, I am very sad that Craig Wright has successfully led public opinion that he is Satoshi  Undecided

It only gets worse for them ...

...snip...

We know that Hal was sent 10 BTC to this address 1Q2TWHE3GMdB6BZKafqwxXtWAWgFt5Jvm3 by Satoshi (not by CSW - prove me wrong!)

- https://www.blockchain.com/btc/address/1Q2TWHE3GMdB6BZKafqwxXtWAWgFt5Jvm3

Satoshi should be able to Sign a message from the from address, yet CSW cannot sign a single public message to date.

Thus, more unproven fabrications on this very subject from coingeek ... mixing facts with fiction (again) ...
- https://coingeek.com/bitcoins-1st-transaction-happened-11-years-ago-today/

(Fixed) Quote:

"... Finney decided to run the software and accepted 10 Bitcoin from Dr. Wright Satoshi to the wallet address: 1Q2TWHE3GMdB6BZKafqwxXtWAWgFt5Jvm3. To commemorate the occasion, Finney posted the news on Twitter. ..."

Don't trust, Verify. Not your keys, not your Bitcoin.
