Bitcoin Forum

Hi guys with this kind of situation (split and miner split their hash power) when do you think that transaction using BTC will come to normal??

i want to buy something using BTC but afraid if this situation will effect my transaction process  :(

it's better to wait when theymos will declare it safe with an announcement, he said so, i would not do any transactions now it's too dangerous, your coins could end in another fork

I would say now, you should hurry, tx fees are quite low due to less transaction  ;)

Even the news header on the forum says at the moment:

Bitcoin (BTC) is stable. Quoting theymos (read the header),


So I'd say you can safely go ahead now.

Right just now, with the announcement of sir Theymos, transacting Bitcoins now is reasonably safe. I think the split is done, the BIP148 has been activated, you do not need to worry since it is safe now.

I think it is completely safe to do the transaction as everything is back to normal already.

Though it is said, as a precautionary step I would not do anything at the moment unless and until Theymos publishes further news. At the moment theymos is only person I could trust and not my friends neither my legal advisor. Hopefully I will not transact at least two more days.

I doubt if the full impact of this will be experienced, until BCC has come into play. I would rather wait to see what will happen

with BCC, before I start spending my BTC. Yes, theymos has announced that it is safe to proceed with transactions, but I still

want to see what happens with BCC. How many exchanges has started accepting BTC withdrawal and deposits?  ???

BTC is not under any problems. UASF BIP148 already happened, BitcoinCash split already happened, both are irrelevant events and no onecares. No one is mining any of the chain except like 5% of hashrate.

You are safe to go, but be sure to hold your private keys. People are having problems accessing their BTC because they let their BTC on exchanges hoping to instadump their BCC split share. I knew the exchanges would have traffic issues. It's best to wait. If you end up selling at 5$, then so be it, it's better than risking your BTC in the exchanges doing an exit scam.

Thank you all for now i think i will wait theymos  news for to be safe, btw anyone knows where he will announce it? i hope it's clearly visible so will not missed it

I Guess its safe now to carry transactions because transaction fees are a bit low now. But according to me, you should wait untill official announcement about bitcoin transactions to me safe. Orelse try with a smaller transaction. There is no.split in BTC i guess. Even Bcash blocks are not found yet.

Already received confirmation that with bitcoin BTC everything is fine and with it you can safely carry out transactions. So good luck.

From the announcements on the dashboard of bitcointalk, thymos already confirmed that it is already safe to transact Bitcoins.

So, I think there is nothing to worry about now. It is all clear to use it. If you want to use BCC though, that would be another issue. You have to follow their instructions on how to safely move it.

I got bitcoins in my wallet in the 11th hours of the morning. Transaction went without problems. It strengthened my faith in bitcoin and now I'm sure that by winter we will see the price of 3500-4000 dollars. This is only the beginning of the climb.

It is safe now, the fork already happened, you just have to choose which client/chain you transact on now.

Received a message from the moderator that the transactions with bitcoin already carry out safely and you can make any transactions with him. However, others advise not yet to rush and warn that the danger is not over. So at your own discretion. But if it is not urgent, with transactions it is better to wait.

It should be safe by now, but according to the message by theymos there is some risk involved until August 10.

It is probably wise to simply wait for a few more confirmations just to be sure.

You can transact on both. Why would you be limited to one?

Supporting one of the chains is something different though. If you believe in bitcoins then use that only. If you believe in bitcoin cash only, then exclusively use that only. But generally, if you stored your bitcoins in a private key then that would mean you are entitled to both bitcoins and bitcoin cash. Don't pass the opportunity to at least dispose one of them before you stop support either one.

I already made one transaction after fork, didn't had any issues. On the top of the forum you can see message by theymos that you can Bitcoin as you were previously.
Yeah, now you can do transactions on both chains. Btc and bch chains are separate, but there are possibility of replay attacks.

I think you should read this theymos thread https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2059111.60
We can send BTC but we need about 30 confirmation. Everyithing will be 100 fine when all miners succesful in execute Segwit around 9-10 Aug.

What are you worried about? I think now the bitcoin transaction is safe, and we can use it. I've tried to use some transactions in this day. And this is proven to be able to fast confirm my transaction . It seems your worries are too excessive buddy!

I already met information and other users who say that transactions do not pass today. It seems to me that there is a certain disk to lose bitcoins and so I will refrain from any action today.

Today it safe, but exchangers can stole your forks.

For normal transaction bitcoin I still do not know, last night berancana sell sebain bitcoin me but can not, I hope transaki using bitcoin can be normal

Hey dasgardo, we are now good as before. We can now transact bitcoins now.


As theymos said on the news above this forum;



Everything seems to be green and go now. You can now transact, send and receive bitcoins.


Yes, for those that let there bitcoins stay on exchange. They can't have the bcc.

I'm not planing on doing any transactions in the next week probably tho I've noticed the fees going down drastically and the confirmation time being faster even before the 1st Aug.

Yey we have finished the bitcoin fork. I am really glad that we have been through this. There is a post from Theymos, himself saying that we can transact the bitcoins we knew before right now because the fork has finished :) cheers. Refer here https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2059111.0 <--- at that thread.

All clear according to the news, and I've tried to transact bitcoin like 6 hours ago and it seems clear without problem, in addition just paid low fees due to the network of blockchain looks deserted. Bitcoin cash already mined, and whoever that hold bitcoin on electrum wallet and already installed electron wallet should be careful as https://twitter.com/ElectrumWallet/status/891935330235973633

Can't make any withdraws on Bittrex for BTC still, any idea how much longer that will be

Already did a deposit on Kraken, everything seems fine. I guess it's all clear, just like the announcement says.
You should be good.

hello
 You can now use Bitcoin as you were previously its all clear now, see the news
announcement on the top

I think with us using bitcoin or BTC currently or previously been secure but also with bertambanhnya knowledge then it would be safer to mention the transaction of buying and selling, but we must remain cautious and continue to monitor the process smoothly or not. but the explanation of some of my friends they desist quite smoothly. and you don't get too worried.

My wallet provider released a statement that everything has gone back to normal. We can do transactions now except for BCH especially on exchange sites because the BCH wallet is still not stable. Any bitcoin related transactions can now be done at ease. No need to worry.

As the news states clearly that everything is now all clear having the split already done and block already mined for BCC (BCH), you can safely do your transactions without being scared as the situation seems under control atm because mining is being done for both the coins as well as none has been declared a major one yet, but BTC is still holding its parity towards the price it had before and successfully gaining more instead of a decline which Bitcoin ABC developers and miners expected.

You can do it now safe, but make sure which coins services use. I recommend you keeping your coins on both chains, since we don't know who will be winner. Probably Bitcoin Cash because it's simply Bitcoin but with 8 MB limit. It will be useful longer than SegWit2x which may last only several years. SegWit2x side of Bitcoin will probably lose since to unnecessary complicating this simple but advanced protocol. It will mainly depend in Bitmain intentions.
