Bitcoin SV investors attempt to resurrect 2019 Binance lawsuit

The BSV network has faced numerous delistings, 51% attacks, and a long-term price decline as the altcoin struggles to gain traction.

Investors of Bitcoin Satoshi’s Vision (BSV) — a hard fork of Bitcoin Cash (BCH), which itself is a hard fork of the Bitcoin (BTC) protocol, are attempting to revive a 2019 lawsuit against crypto exchange Binance for delisting the altcoin, which the litigants claim stunted the price of BSV.  

According to Law360, attorneys for the plaintiffs argued that a July 2024 decision from the UK Competition Appeal Tribunal dismissing the “loss of chance” claim made against Binance for delisting the token, should be reconsidered. The litigants demanded $9 billion in damages, in the original case.
