Bitcoin Forum

Are you excited?

The breaking news tag is misused once again on this forum. This isn't new really nor is it breaking news. I think tomorrow is going to be pretty uneventful just like August 1st. Unless the segwit activation hasn't priced in yet.

So, BTC price will go further up once SegWit activates?

SegWit Activation tomorrow 8th 19:50 UTC? How come? Quote from Coin.dance:263 blocks away to LOCK IN. Not to Activation. And 263 blocks it's 44 hours which is 1 day and 20 hours. So that will be in morning of August 9th, am I correct?

SEGWIT LOCK-IN PERIOD:
SegWit lock-in this period? Probably.
Lock-in threshold expected at ≈Tue, 08 Aug 2017 19:19:59 GMT.
Period ends at ≈Wed, 09 Aug 2017 09:59:59 GMT.
Next period ends at ≈Mon, 21 Aug 2017 17:40:59 GMT.

252 blocks before current lock-in period ends.
Still 152 blocks needed for a lock-in.
100% SegWit blocks mined in this lock-in period.
Just 60.3% SegWit blocks needed for a lock-in!

Since it was due to happen its more of a sense of relief at this point, we can get past this bumpy stage and move forward.

Not really. Everyone that had a clue about Bitcoin knew Segwit was going in sooner or later. It's the most tested code ever, it's perfectly fine. Im tired of conspiracy theorists and their bullshit. I wonder where they will go once we get Segwit enabled and nothing wrong happens. They will stick around for a while waiting for a doomsday scenario that will never come, that will be fun to see. They will become like Alex Jones of cryptocurrency waiting for collapse.

The price may drop for all I know. People like to sell the news. Just buy the dip, we are going $5000 this year (if NYC agreement clowns don't ruin the price, and hardforkers are always ready to ruin the price with their idiocy)

The all out dump of segshit coin into Bitcoin Cash will be spectacular!

Are you excited?

BCH is a new coin

Are you excited?

I'm very exited, Segwit is exactly what Bitcoin needs it adds a lot of value to the network.

If the first August was successful for bitcoins, then the eighth with SegWit will pass for him without any tangible consequences. I think especially no one is going through the same way as before the first of August. Perhaps bitcoin will fall a little bit in price, and maybe in his course it will not be reflected at all and it will continue to grow.

That was not breaking news in the first place as it is already known what was going to happen. Here we are with segwit was known since the august start. I'm happy that everything happened as per our thoughts and votes. The segwit will change the face of bitcoin from super star to wonder star now and the price is gonna head up the 4K value for sure. So it's time to enjoy the upcoming winter with bitcoin. Cheers segwit by the way.

Are you excited?

The price says it all, people are excited as can be seen from the current prices which have pushed its value to an all time high in the same time frame as SegWit Activation, seems segwit isn't freaking people out as the chain split did because segwit is something that has been tested on a different crypto (litecoin) and works fine with no problems. Looks like we ready to go to the moon 🚀.  

~15 blocks to go.  :o

Where are you tracking the progress? I thought still 100 blocks were left, maybe I'm a little behind.

Block capacity/size increase

Since old nodes will only download the witness-stripped block, they only enforce the 1 MB block size limit rule on that data. New nodes, which understand the full block with witness data, are therefore free to replace this limit with a new one, allowing for larger block sizes.

Segregated witness therefore takes advantage of this opportunity to raise the block size limit to nearly 4 MB, and adds a new cost limit to ensure blocks remain balanced in their resource use (this effectively results in an effective limit closer to 1.6 to 2 MB).

Segwit is the final nail in the coffin of BSCore/Segwit Coin hostile takeover attempt and subversion of Bitcoin to continue our slave society. RIP.

Long live Bitcoin Cash, the REAL Bitcoin envisioned by genius Satoshi Nakamoto designed to provide us with financial sovereignty.

We should have a gentleman's agreement to postpone the GPU arms race as long as we can for the good of the network.  It's much easer to get new users up to speed if they don't have to worry about GPU drivers and compatibility.  It's nice how anyone with just a CPU can compete fairly equally right now.

It was also the eighth of August. SegWit left and again nothing significant for bitcoin has not gone through. And why worry? And bitcoin continues to grow in value.

Tgats right. 8th od August passed imperceptible and without so much panic and stress as it was a week ago. All this changes didn't bring those results I was hope for, besides a higher price. I think we will never see again cheap transactions. The price has moved only in a one side, and it's constant growth.

The price is stable. Then it's good anyway. There is nothing to be too much to be concerned with.

It has been locked in already. The Coin Dance website says that BIP 141 has locked in with 100% support today. And it further claims that the activation is scheduled to take place in another 2,055 Blocks.
