About Bitcoin SV

Bitcoin SV (BSV) is currently trading at around $66 with a price increase of 0.38% against USD and 0.33% against Bitcoin over the last 24hrs.

Bitcoin  SV came into existence following the Bitcoin Cash chain split on November the 15th 2018. The chain split was caused at two competing software implementation for the Bitcoin Cash blockchain (Bitcoin ABC and Bitcoin SV) broke away from consensus, and was subsequently supported by two different groups of miners. After the time of the fork, users could claim tokens on each side of the fork if they had previously held tokens on the old Bitcoin Cash chain.

Bitcoin Cash ABC is now being recognised by most exchanges as Bitcoin Cash (the name of the original prefork currency) with a separate listing for Bitcoin Cash SV.
