Dr. Craig Wright asserted this week that the integration of IPv6 into Bitcoin SV "will make it unstoppable".  Wright authored the original Bitcoin white paper and believes that BSV adheres to his original concept.

What is IPv6?

Internet Protocol version 6 (IPv6) is the most recent version of the Internet Protocol (IP), the communications protocol that provides an identification and location system for computers on networks and routes traffic across the Internet.

“I discussed IP-to-IP in the early days of Bitcoin, and that means person A talking to person B directly, not ‘I send to the blockchain and it sends around for a little while and then you find something on it'," Dr. Wright explained.  "Rather, it should be very simple, I communicate to you, I give you my transaction and then you send it to the blockchain to be processed."

Indeed, Wright initially built IPv6 into the Bitcoin platform.

He added: “It’s not meant to be Alice sends to the miners who send to another miner who sends eventually to Bob. It’s meant Alice sends to Bob, and Bob and Alice can communicate and set up any information that they need."

An IPv6 Expert Agrees

IPv6 Forum’s Latif Ladid also believes IPv6 and BSV are a perfect fit.

Ladid was one of the key organizers of the IEEE Blockchain Symposium, an event in which Dr. Craig Wright delivered a keynote speech about how IPv6, combined with Bitcoin SV, will bring enhanced privacy and security to the Internet.

“So we wanted to combine for the first time the use of the end-to-end model of the Internet, because that’s how IPv6 will work in the future, and basically was designed with that model in mind," Ladid said.  "But it was never deployed as such. We are restoring the structure of the Internet as well as the blockchain.”

The IPv6 Forum is working to combine, for the first time, the use of blockchain’s end-to-end model to restore the architecture of the internet.
