MintBlue, a company that provides enterprise blockchain services, is leveraging the bitcoin sv (BSV) blockchain to provide businesses with greater data security, availability, interoperability, and traceability.
According to CEO Niels V. van den Bergh, Mint blue The platform is designed to be easy to use, allowing companies of all sizes to easily integrate blockchain technology without the need for extensive knowledge of the underlying technology.
MintBlue’s solution leverages the blockchain to store immutable data and authenticate identity to ensure data is protected against fraud, theft, corruption, and sudden changes in third party terms and conditions.
Companies can retain full ownership and control of their on-chain data, ensuring that no one else, including MintBlue, can access their information.
Van den Bergh cites many reasons for choosing the BSV blockchain, claiming that it allows for unparalleled scalability, direct data storage capabilities, and unique features well-suited to enterprise-class applications such as contract execution, tokenization, and smart contract capabilities.
He believes that BSV is technically superior to Bitcoin (BTC) due to its built-in scalability features, including the UTXO model and Merkle tree block structure, which enable a more distributed and scalable system.
Bitcoin and bitcoin sv are both forks of the original bitcoin protocol with the former being recognized as a continuation of the original network since it retains most of the community and hash rate of the previous iteration.
The latter part is particularly important because it is an extension of the Nakamoto Consensus Protocol which sees the network agreeing to the state of the blockchain through a combination of proof-of-work (PoW) and the longer chain rule.
“We believe that BSV is technically superior to BTC in almost every respect. They are both versions of the Bitcoin protocol and therefore more or less the same. More importantly, the BSV blockchain is designed for scalability by leveraging native built-in features such as the UTXO model and the Merkle tree block structure.”

The CEO further explained that BSV also brought back the original functionality that allows code to be written directly into transactions that were disabled in BTC and argued that it “allows customers to verify only those transactions on the blockchain that they are interested in, without having to download the entire blockchain.”
Bitcoin is best known for focusing on a decentralization-first strategy that saw uses of the protocol differ from simple transactions limited in favor of a streamlined and light protocol. Currently a full bitcoin node only needs to be stored 478.68 GB While the bitcoin sv blockchain is popular crossed 7000 GB in May.
The culprit is the size of individual transaction blocks on the blockchains, with Bitcoin limiting blocks to a theoretical maximum of 4MB (a thousandth of a gigabyte each) and the usual reasonable maximum of about 2MB while bitcoin sv’s limit is 2MB. 4 GB per block.
This results in much higher node requirements – both when it comes to processing and storage – for bitcoin sv which limits decentralization by raising the entry bar to run a full node.
On the other hand, it is much easier to store data on BSV — a practice the BTC community has tried to prevent as highlighted by the controversy surrounding Bitcoin ordinal pattern.
However, Van den Bergh values the UTXO-based BSV system for its scalability and privacy, native traceability for tracking and tracing data, and commitment to maintaining a stable and unchanging protocol that it claims makes the blockchain suitable for building enterprise-grade applications.
MintBlue’s adoption of the BSV blockchain for its enterprise solutions highlights the diverse needs and diverse options in protocols to enhance data security and streamline business processes across various industries.
