Anyone know anything about the upcoming Super Bitcoin fork? Just saw a video on this site:  https://news.bitcoin.com/

Thanks everyone!

It is a fork that is going to happen, but this is just one more, it is not going to be an innovation because the time for forks has already passed, we had a lot of issues with the forks and i dont think that people will support it.
There is going to be one more called bitcoin silver, but it did not even get 1% support from all the bitcoin holders,  the real miners and the big whales of course.
If it happens, then i am sure that it is going to be one of those scammy forks like those who are appearing on the altcoins announcement boards, like ethereum diamond, dash gold, and so on.

Bitcoin Gold had:

-100,000 coins just for the devs (https://cointelegraph.com/news/bitcoin-gold-clarifies-premine-endowment)
-A flat fee going straight to the developer's wallet (https://www.reddit.com/r/btc/comments/7cqwxo/warning_bitcoin_gold_developer_stealing_fee_into/)
-The inability to prepare the fork properly before it happened
-A site listed on their website which stole over $1,000,000 in BTC from their users.

If this happens, it will be equally scammy.  That's not to say that there can't be legitimate forks, but the current trend suggests that this deserves ignoring.

In other topics on the forum it appears that on November 25 we are waiting for another fork of bitcoin. This time there will be his next free clone bitcoin diamond. It will have increased confidentiality, a fast transaction time and lower transaction fees. In principle, these improvements are not much different from the on-line bitcoin that appeared on August 1 in cash.
