I guess the word "Bitcoin" used here refers to the protocol that the browser builds on, and not the chain commonly known as Bitcoin which has BTC as base asset.

I guess the word "Bitcoin" used here refers to the protocol that the browser builds on, and not the chain commonly known as Bitcoin which has BTC as base asset. Bottle is not limited to BSV but could as well be run on other chains implementing the Bitcoin core protocol such as BTC, BCH, LTC and Doge.
- djbits 7y agoIt could be implemented, yes. BUT it wont work at scale because non of them scale except BSV. DYOR
- Dense_Body 7y agoYou are correct but it actually could not be run on BTC or BCH because of changes that were made to them that make them incompatible with the design laid out in the protocol whitepaper. It also would be prohibitively expensive to do so due to the block size limitations they have in place.
- shilch 7y agoIn theory it could work on BTC or BCH. Bottle relies on large OP_RETURN which is a miner-adjustable limit, not consensus. But in practice you (1) would need to find a miner to do this. (2) could only put in 1MB of data on BTC. (3) would have to pay a lot of satoshis (as you pointed out).
- satuenpoo 7y agoIt cannot work on BCH because of the changes with CTOR they introduces last year in November 15. This also cannot work on BTC because it is unable to grow the block size. The original Bitcoin is the SV chain.
- ltworld 7y agoYes and also, BTC and BCH don't have a "Stable Protocol" Mindset, OnChain Developer Apps will get Their Apps and Tools fked up every time the Core Protocol Changes. Aside from the lack of infrastructure, in BTC they already abandon the miner, The money that should be Goes to Miner for securing the chain, it goes to the Lightning Network Node. When block reward diminished it'll fked up, they cannot survive with such low income from LN.
