Title: Recent Bitcoin forks -- Bitcoin Diamond, Super Bitcoin, Bitcoin Platinum, etc. Post by: squatter on December 08, 2017, 10:24:13 PM After Bitcoin Gold, I stopped paying attention to new Bitcoin forks. I figured that other people would lose interest just like I did. I read this article on Arstechnica (https://arstechnica.com/tech-policy/2017/11/get-ready-for-a-wave-of-bitcoin-forks/) earlier today. Apparently a bunch of other forks are scheduled or already happened, and the markets (including futures) indicate that they do carry some value.
According to the article, the following forks are in the works. I think in some cases, the snapshot already happened: Quote In recent weeks, a bunch of different people have announced plans to create new currencies. There's Bitcoin Silver, Bitcoin Platinum, Bitcoin Diamond, Bitcoin Uranium, Bitcoin Cash Plus, and Super Bitcoin. Does anyone have any info on the above forks? Snapshot Block #, whether there are working (safe) wallets and a live network, what exchanges they are traded on? I'm hesitant to bother moving my coins and sacrificing privacy to claim fork coins when they aren't worth much. But both Bcash and Bgold were a boon to my portfolio, so I'm curious.

As far as I know, none of these (after gold) have a trusted wallet or method of claiming.

I understand someimes its necessary but come on what is the logic behind a fork every week or two. Thats sucks in reality.
