After Binance and ShapeShift, Kraken , the US crypto-stock exchange, has also removed Bitcoin SV (BSV) from its platform. Also Craig Wright's BSV will have lost a pillar of the crypto ecosystem again.
The behavior of Craig Wright postponed
While Binance had made the decision to withdraw BSV unilaterally as a result of Craig Wright's unacceptable behavior (by attacking Internet users), the Australian computer scientist who is a strong supporter of BSV, Kraken would have, meanwhile, conducted a poll with the crypto-community before ruling on the fate of controversial BSV.
In its official press release, Kraken argued that BSV had engaged in behavior that goes against everything that society defends as a value, or even that of the crypto-community.
Moreover, he cited a number of inadmissible conduct that would have influenced this measure, namely fraudulent claims, threats and legal actions.
A blow to the asset
Although the company did not directly target Craig Wright, she said in her announcement that last week's threats against individual members of the community were the straw that broke the camel's back.
Indeed, despite the warnings of Changpeng Zhao, Binance's CEO, Craig Wright, would have set a bonus of US $ 5,000 in BSV to acquire information about the identity of Hodlnaut, the Twitter user who is behind the recent Bitcoin charity event, Lightning Torch.
Apparently the BSV would have lost a little more than 30% of its value in a week.
