Bitcoin Forum

Here we go again guys with another fork, only difference is this time the total coin supply is 210Million and you get 10 Bitcoin Diamonds per Bitcoin you own. Binance already added.

Why are we allowing this to happen as a community? How come we can't just step in and refuse to allow a fork to take place?

Why do we need another fork? I think there is enough coins to buy

Anyone can fork it really... if you want to do something about it your best chances are reaching out to exchanges as a community and ask them to refuse to list these forked coins. But ofcourse some exchange will because it lures in traders and they make commissions over those trades. I mean I could basically fork Bitcoin today, just copy the code, give it another name and voilà I got myself some BitcoinMoon.

If it is a new fork, its name will be bitcoin silver. maybe the bitcoin diamond can be tai ..

yes I think this is the policy of a project that's why I think this is indeed very reasonable.

*sigh* now this is just getting ridiculous  :-\. Bitcoin Diamond... really? Do people actually think that we need all of these forks and they will actually improve the community? Sure BCC seems to be doing well and may have been needed, but I highly doubt that these other forks (BTG, Bitcoin Diamond, and Segwit2x- which the devs made the respectable decision to stop its development and do what they felt was best for the community).

Good luck and stay safe! :P

We need another fork for them to get wealthier.  ;D

Let them be and let them be full until all their tummies will blow into pieces.  ;D
We dont really need it. Bitcoin is okay for now. The transaction traffic gets lesser again.
I dont know what they are aiming here but it is getting ridiculous and it is not funny anymore.

All this guys are just using us to make money

Completely crap, no one can win so easily. Such fork only reduce the value of Bitcoin. Bitcoin and blockchain have no benefits. Do not support it and do not buy it!

i think i have read a thread about bitcoin silver now diamond what is happening to crypto please we need to be sure of the information that we are spreading here.

may be in my opinion because the token is still in the bidding process and it is reasonable for the project to do so, which will convince investors that this coin is very good to be a profit center.

Really why this all happens without our permission. A group of people agreed to and created, do not ask the community and do you need it in general ??

Fully agreed with you. new shit coin, somebody wants to make money from air.

Yap another useless coin being created, this is going to stir the market and cause instability to bitcoin again, why there isa forking after forking, I am tired to see this, and the forking result is just another useless coin and I am confuse to see the the purpose of the new forking coin

A newbie shit coin of course, dont even think about exporting your private key because you can get your coins stolen because of a tiny mistake.

I would not join any of those forks because i would not feel tempted again, after all those accussations that a lot of wallets of bitcoin gold had, i would not export my private key anymore because it is very risky.

I prefer to keep my actual portfolio instead of looking for more money that came from air, it is very risky and it is not worth, because they are not worth that risk.

Every one of them is below $70 at the moment if i am not wrong, so it is not worth it if you have less than a bitcoin.

I dont see any long term for this it will be a short pump and dump action and then it will wither out and will be forgotten hehehe

Agree, and in general, you need to stop creating these forks. It's no longer a joke. Only speculation, no technology

I think anyone can fork coin. The forked one won't affect the value of the original one. The point is, the value of a coin comes from the majority view. If most of the people think this fork is a shit coin. Then the price will dump.

This forking shit needs to be stopped!

Ohhh, nooo. Perfect, new shitcoin and altcoin grow down. Someone can stop it at all. What is this era forks??

it's so funny seeing situation like now, everyone want to rich and earn more more more and more money from bitcoin, wake up guys this is just stupid comedy by big player. What's the point fork the bitcoin again and again ? need more option for trading ? choose wisely with top altcoin like eth, xmr and many more, stop wasting your time with this pumping and dumping coin  ;D it's so risky too for exporting your private key

Everyone and their mother are trying to cash in on Bitcoins name. It would be really funny if a non-Bitcoin named coin came along and pushed them all down.

This fork hasn't used the community consensus that means there is no difference between the bitcoin gold fork and diamond fork. This coin has made by the greedy person. As you can see there is no usefulness by use the diamond bitcoin rather than become another pump and dump currency. bitcoin lead to be the mother of the forked coins.
This is very bad IMO.

We can't just refuse a fork to take place. That's impossible.

However if you don't like a fork you could always just dump the forked coin to buyers. Nothing says that you can't do that. I doubt the price will hold up to what it is right now because everyone gets 10 of it per bitcoin and that would mean per bitcoin you'd get 0.08 BTC for free.

I don't see that as a sustainable price, maybe 0.01 BTC is more realistic in my opinion.

I have never heard of anything like this and how can it happen whether you have a whitepaper link or something else that we can read to know the problem.

maybe the community needs to improve bitcoin by doing hard fork but i think it still useless
and for the bitcoin diamond i think it just another free money like btg/bch

How can you "refuse to allow" anything? Anybody is allowed to fork an open source software. If the community is not interested in the fork, they don't need to use it -- simple as that. Unfortunately, the exchanges don't want to miss out on trading commissions, so they'll list anything that will make them money.

The fact is: It's a free market. Exchanges are free to list whatever coins they want. Investors can buy/sell whatever coins they want. Eventually, people will grow tired of these shenanigans and will start to understand that these forks are just cash grabs. And then money will flow back into cryptocurrencies with strong fundamentals, like Bitcoin. Newbie investors who wanted to get in on "the next Bitcoin" are going to get fleeced and lose a lot of money.


Because the Bitcoin Diamond "developers" want to make some money. And so do exchanges, so they will list it. The funny thing is, I felt like the altcoin market was diluted when there were 200-300 coins. Now there's 1300 and counting. And money still just keeps flowing into the market!

They require that you transfer all your BTC into their wallet. Otherwise no BTD for you.

Fishy as hell!!!

Not really, more than 28 exchanges including binance support the BCD and if you have btc balance in your exchange accounts, you will get the BCD coins.

lol that was expected

That is true, I have received my BCD coins in my Binance account. I think I will buy more BCD when the price is lower.

No mining info yet???

Didn't realize there was a bitcoin diamond fork until it was too late. Shitcoin or not, this was free money and nobody should be able to complain.
I wonder if there already exists a fork alert website? Similar to those ICO alert systems.

Diluting the market with shitty coins. Atleast you'll receive the coins if you hold your owns keys!

Was there any discount on night girls in black Friday? I was desperately looking to find one with at least 50% off for an hour, could you comprehend how hard it is to earn enough money to feed a woman and keep her happy and jump-ready for a life time? at least for 5 years, since after jumping 5 years, they'd tend to wear off and not jump-joyed. lol I'm off topic a bit, you can understand what I'm talking about.
See any Bitcoin fork as a one way exchange, just sell and don't look back, if you look back then it's your greed costing you money.

This is just crazy. Fork after fork after fork. its never gonna stop. They are going to be richer and more shitty coins for us.  This fork is so useless. It may look like another free coin for btc holders but really its a way to divide your btc and give it to these greedy developers.

Thats just one way, I received a piece of BTCD just holding a small amount on Yobit. But is anyone here really gonna buy a Bitcoin Fork with 210Million Supply? absurd.


Thats just pathetic, I understand exchanges wanna make some money but how many of these forks do we really need? And why in the hell are people buying it lol.

Yeah .... I don't see how a 10 for 1 fork can work unless you had your coins on a exchange.  I can't imagine there is any way to get your Bitcoin Diamond at a 10:1 ratio by importing a private key into a new wallet.  Maybe I'm wrong, I just can't think of how that is possible.  If that's the case, they really did a crappy job of getting the word out before the fork. 

I like your last three words where you said lol. full stop. we and friends, need as many shitcoins as possible, we need to create markets for these shitcoins, I wont dig deeper, because if I do, I might find a few billion dollars dirty money. girls like when I talk dirty but they don't like when I offer them dirty money.

But I hear that all the dirty girls love dirty money  ;)

Many people really want to be rich,that's why when they see any opportunity to be rich they will grab it. We have different ways to be rich and i think that is they way.

i wonder why  Bitcoin Gold is trading so high.

its more than double Bitcoin Gold in marketcap at present rate.

I dont get the high evaluation.   anyone know why?


thanks

When I first read about it I didnt believe it. But its true. Sad but true. This forking on a monthly basis hurts the whole space. It sheds a bad light on Bitcoin and new people will just be turned off by crypto as a whole. I mean how can it be that there are millions over millions created out of nothing? Crazy.

In actual we have no direct realtionship with the bitcoin team but still the team of the bitcoin is not small , They are experienced and also they are doing Thier work properly with better suggestion and discussion with each other .
If you are thinking that fork is made to make money by the team of the bitcoin then you are wrong , in actual they are doing fork Because they are looking to make the bitcoin technology more improved and with every experiment they are facing with that condition where they needed to make fork , and fork is a natural thing that generate new coin .

As long as there is easy money to be made there will be plenty more forks to come. I don't think they add much to the eco-system but that is where we are at in the space right now.

Okay, but also for the $.  ;) Btw, why is there a space before each of your , and .  ???

I don't know why we need to have another fork if we can make all the updates and enhancement of a digital coin once and for all? Still, this coin will go likely like bitcoin cash IMO or would just be a nuisance coin.

Hm, yes, the hardfork on 495866 block happened and the new crypto currency is already supported by 28 exchanges, including OKEx, CEX.com and other trading platforms. Now we have BCD, and the rumors about the next hardfork appeared. They say about the new alt that will be called Bitcoin Perfect.

I just cant believe the developers of this bitcoin fork.
Why dont they just create their own coin without bringing the name of bitcoin. They can add any features they want and do anything they want with it it doesnt matter if they are a fork from bitcoin or not.
They must understand that it is not the name that will carry on their coin but it is the development of that coin.

I realy don't understand why btc need that fork there is bch btg now diamond, i dont read anything about diamond but i can say that there bitcoin prefix so we should wait something.

Worst fork out of all the forks.
I wouldn't invest a penny into this project.

How can you "refuse to allow" anything? Anybody is allowed to fork an open source software. If the community is not interested in the fork, they don't need to use it - simple as that.

Whales are trying to use bitcoin fork to control the market, no promise about the price and many bulltrap here.

I think why you use the other while the best bitcoin to date.

Forks allow developers to earn a great deal of money. They offer a certain ration by which an equal amount of other coins (in this specific ratio) will be given to you in accordance to how many bitcoins you have. So let us just imagine, what will other holders who got so little amount of bitcoin think?

Of course, they'll think that this fork coin might be one of those good coin that will make them rich, so they'll go on a panic buy, purchasing bitcoins/coins in preparation of the fork, thus, increasing its price. Also, fork is a good way to decrease the current value of coins that has a high value. This will allow investors especially the whales to hoard some coins.

Does anyone know how to receive Bitcoin Diamond if I hold seed using electrum? Is there an official windows wallet?

BCH, BTG. Now Bitcoin Diamond and Bitcoin Silver too (if i am not mistaken).
I think that a big players are manipulating with people and speculating with these forks to get great profits. Billions of dollars. And we can do nothing with it..
