The Bitcoin SV (Satoshi Vision) altcoin is in the latest digital currency news for unveiling its new identity with a logo on the 10th birthday of Bitcoin. Not surprisingly for many, the new logo for Bitcoin SV (BSV) looks suspiciously similar to the one of Bitcoin which is the original cryptocurrency.
The pro-BSV bComm Association proudly shared the announcement in an official statement which read:
“The BSV logo is revealed on the 10th anniversary of the Bitcoin genesis block, to mark Bitcoin SV as rebirth of the original Bitcoin.”
NChain’s Jimmy Nguyen who is the president of the bComm Association said that the BSV logo was selected after conducting three Twitter polls. As he said:
“After too many years of wasteful diversions from the Satoshi Vision, we can now finally celebrate Bitcoin’s rebirth – unchained from experimental whims of developer teams who veered away from Satoshi’s original plan.”
The logo was promptly mocked by many on social media, and some called it a “cheap imitation knockoff” of the original Bitcoin.
Bravo, but has hints of cheap imitation knock off to it. I wonder why. pic.twitter.com/FsvNSurAQo

According to some users, however, the new logo looks a lot like Bitcoin and some even said that it is “identical” to Bitcoin’s.
Some Bitcoin SV (BSV) proponents including Calvin Ayre think that Bitcoin SV “is the real Bitcoin” where the original cryptocurrency (which was established before Bitcoin SV) is an impostor.
