More than 98% of transactions on the ₿itcoin SV blockchain over the past 30 days have been used for writing data from a weather app, Twitter personality Painted Frog noted today, June 24.
Citing data from ₿itcoin cash (BCH) blockchain visualiser Trends.cash, Painted Frog noted that the vast majority of BSV transactions have been implemented so far for sharing weather data through ₿itcoin sv-powered app WeatherSV.

According to the website, other BSV implementations over the past 30 days included ₿itcoin cash-based social network Memo, an incentivized BDV tool called Open Directory, as well as BSV-powered payment system Money Button. With that, WeatherSV has accounted for more than 1.2 million transactions over the period, while Memo, ranked second according to the number of transactions, has recorded just about 9,000 transactions for the same time span.

As Painted Frog noted in his tweet, WeatherSV is actually a paid subscription service that hourly copies data from an existing weather website OpenWeatherMap.org, generating the most of transactions on BSV network.
While ₿itcoin Cash is the first hard fork of ₿itcoin, created back in August 2017, ₿itcoin SV is a hard fork version of ₿itcoin Cash, and is led by self-proclaimed creator of ₿itcoin, Craig Wright, who has recently failed to disclose his ₿itcoin holdings per court order.
In May 2019, Wright created a wave of discontent in crypto community by filing a copyright claim to a part of ₿itcoin’s code and its white paper.
At press time, ₿itcoin cash is the fourth biggest cryptocurrency by market cap, trading at $473.41, while ₿itcoin SV is ranked eighth, trading at $235.71, according to data from CoinMarketCap.
