Florida-based United American Corp. (UnitedCorp) has purportedly filed a lawsuit against the Kraken Bitcoin Exchange, Bitmain, Roger Ver, and Bitcoin.com, based on a press release published Dec. 6. UnitedCorp claims that your defendants premeditated a scheme to have control of the Bitcoin Cash network.
UnitedCorp, founded in 1992, is usually a management and development firm along with a focus on information technologies and telecommunications. Its to be noted which the company manages a portfolio of proprietary technology and patents on the blockchain, telecoms, and social networking. UnitedCorp also owns and operates BlockchainDomes stations. Interestingly, these stations provide heat for agricultural applications.
The suit filed from the U.S. District Court for ones Southern District of Florida asserts the fact that the defendants collaboratively used unfair practices to manage the BCH network for their benefit and detriment of UnitedCorp besides other BCH stakeholders. The release further specifies that UnitedCorp believes your defendants connived to effectively hijack the Bitcoin Cash network following a November 15, 2019 , planned software update with the aim of centralizing the network. Notably, pretty much everything is in violation of one’s established standards and protocols in connection with Bitcoin since its commencement.
On Nov. 15, the BCH network underwent an update, which divided the city into two main camps, folks who support Bitcoin Cash ABC and those who support Bitcoin Cash SV. UnitedCorp states the fact that the defendants took benefits of the coin’s network just after the upgrade using “rented hashing.” This allegedly lead to the adoption of Bitcoin ABC rule sets, precluding other implantations from maintaining a democratic rule sets.
UnitedCorp also asserts your Bitcoin ABC team of developers put a “poison pill” into your blockchain on Nov. 20. To be able to strengthen power over the blockchain ledger, it is finished by an approach of a “Deep Reorg Prevention”, as documented in the allegations. That purportedly enables continuance of control on implementations for future network updates.
The suit seeks injunctive relief from the defendants, asking to prevent yourself from them from ongoing actions from the BCH network and ahead of time in the future. Additionally, UnitedCorp seeks compensation, the power of which it claims will be determined at trial.
