  • Executive Summary Background Information What Is Bitcoin? What Is
    Executive Summary Details surrounding the identity of Satoshi Nakamoto and the origins of Bitcoin have emerged from a Florida court case, Kleiman v Wright. The plaintiff, Ira Kleiman, is suing the defendant, Craig Steven Wright (CSW) for the rights to Bitcoin tokens and Bitcoin related intellectual property. Ira alleges that his deceased brother Dave Kleiman was CSW’s partner in the development of Bitcoin and Bitcoin related IP. Implicit in this allegation is that CSW created Bitcoin and has access to Satoshi’s Bitcoins currently valued ~$10B. CSW has made it clear that his intention is to sell his BTC in favor of his preferred version of Bitcoin, BSV, which is more aligned with the original design. If this occurs it will have massive market ramifications on the order of hundreds of billions of dollars. Court case details support CSW’s claim to be Satoshi. This contrasts the opinion of many industry leaders who don’t believe that CSW is Satoshi or that he can follow through on his threat to sell BTC for BSV. The conflict around the Satoshi identity ties into a larger conflict about the purpose of Bitcoin and the role of law in Bitcoin. Background Information What is Bitcoin? What is BTC? Bitcoin is a revolutionary peer-to-peer network and electronic cash system. Over its 10 year ​ history, Bitcoin tokens have appreciated from being effectively worthless to having a market cap of over $315 billion. BTC is the predominant ticker symbol of the Bitcoin token. Others, like BSV and BCH exist through a process called forking.

  • Arxiv:2010.05589V3 [Cs.DS] 31 Oct 2020 Growth of Random Trees By
    Growth of Random Trees by Leaf Attachment Nomvelo Karabo Sibisi University of Cape Town [email protected] October 2020 Abstract We study the growth of a time-ordered rooted tree by probabilistic attachment of new vertices to leaves. We construct a likelihood function of the leaves based on the connectivity of the tree. We take such connectivity to be induced by the merging of directed ordered paths from leaves to the root. Combining the likelihood with an assigned prior distribution leads to a posterior leaf distribution from which we sample attachment points for new vertices. We present computational examples of such Bayesian tree growth. Although the discussion is generic, the initial motivation for the paper is the concept of a distributed ledger, which may be regarded as a time-ordered random tree that grows by probabilistic leaf attachment. 1 Introduction In the context of this paper, a tree is an object in graph theory. In particular, we study a directed rooted tree (vertices joined by directed edges where one vertex is the root) that grows with time according to probabilistic rules. The motivation for such a study will be discussed below. In the first instance, we give a simple illustration of the growth of a directed rooted tree. arXiv:2010.05589v3 [cs.DS] 31 Oct 2020 We adopt an approach to graph theory where visual representation often takes precedence over formal description. Accordingly, Figure 1 shows a sequence of ‘snapshots’ of a tree as it grows through attachment of new vertices to existing vertices (time increases to the right in each snapshot and a directed edge from one vertex to another represents attachment of the former to the latter).

Bitcoin and the Uniform Commercial Code Jeanne L. Schroeder* Much of the discussion of bitcoin in the popular press has concentrated on its status as a currency. Putting aside a vocal minority of radical libertarians and anarchists, however, many bitcoin enthusiasts are concentrating on how its underlying technology – the blockchain – can be put to use for wide variety of uses. For example, economists at the Fed and other central banks have suggested that they should encourage the evolution of bitcoin’s blockchain protocol which might allow financial transactions to clear much efficiently than under our current systems. As such, it also holds out the possibility of becoming that holy grail of commerce – a payment system that would eliminate or minimize the roles of third party intermediaries. In addition, the NASDAQ and a number of issuers are experimenting with using the blockchain to record the issuing and trading of investments securities.

  • Bitcoin White Paper
    Bitcoin: A Peer-to-Peer Electronic Cash System Satoshi Nakamoto aka Craig Steven Wright https://craigwright.net/ Abstract. A purely peer-to-peer version of electronic cash would allow online payments to be sent directly from one party to another without going through a financial institution. Digital signatures provide part of the solution, but the main benefits are lost if a trusted third party is still required to prevent double-spending. We propose a solution to the double-spending problem using a peer-to-peer network. The network timestamps transactions by hashing them into an ongoing chain of hash-based proof-of-work, forming a record that cannot be changed without redoing the proof-of-work. The longest chain not only serves as proof of the sequence of events witnessed, but proof that it came from the largest pool of CPU power. As long as a majority of CPU power is controlled by nodes that are not cooperating to attack the network, they'll generate the longest chain and outpace attackers. The network itself requires minimal structure. Messages are broadcast on a best effort basis, and nodes can leave and rejoin the network at will, accepting the longest proof-of-work chain as proof of what happened while they were gone. 1. Introduction Commerce on the Internet has come to rely almost exclusively on financial institutions serving as trusted third parties to process electronic payments. While the system works well enough for most transactions, it still suffers from the inherent weaknesses of the trust based model. Completely non-reversible transactions are not really possible, since financial institutions cannot avoid mediating disputes.

And I should tell you, when I start the session with that little shh, I learned from a congressman in Baltimore. As some of you know, I've spent a lot of time around politics. And one of my roles in politics was that I was the treasurer of the Maryland Democratic Party. Which, if you anybody ever asks you to be the treasurer of a state party, come. I can give you some advice about what that's all about when your home state senator asks you to do it. So I had to quiet down the annual Jefferson Jackson Day dinners. I'd organize these big dinners, and there's 400, 500, 600 people at these dinners. I couldn't do it. I couldn't get their attention. And Congressman Elijah Cummings comes up, and he just leans into the mic. Shh. And it quieted the whole place down. I said, Congressman, what is this? Is this something you've learned in politics, something you learned from your minister, your priest? He said, it works every time, works every time. So Elijah Cummings gave me that little duty. Blockchain and money, we're here. I know it's a little bit like eating broccoli these last couple of classes, because we went through cryptography, and then we moved a little bit into consensus protocols.

It has been accepted for inclusion in Maryland Law Review by an authorized editor of DigitalCommons@UM Carey Law. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Article $=€=BITCOIN? HILARY J. ALLEN Bitcoin (and other virtual currencies) have the potential to rev- olutionize the way that payments are processed, but only if they become ubiquitous. This Article argues that if virtual currencies are used at that scale, it would pose threats to the stability of the financial system—threats that have been largely unexplored to date. Such threats will arise because the ability of a virtual cur- rency to function as money is very fragile—Bitcoin can remain money only for so long as people have confidence that bitcoins will be readily accepted by others as a means of payment. Unlike the U.S. dollar, which is backed by both a national government and a central bank, and the euro, which is at least backed by a central bank, there is no institution that can shore up confidence in Bitcoin (or any other virtual currency) in the event of a panic. This Article explores some regulatory measures that could help address the systemic risks posed by virtual currencies, but argues that the best way to contain those risks is for regulated institu- tions to out-compete virtual currencies by offering better payment services, thus consigning virtual currencies to a niche role in the economy.
