Now three more digital currency companies are supporting Bcoin’s “To the Moon” proposal.
Three more bitcoin-focused firms are supporting the idea of Bcoin’s Extension Block (E-block) proposal for testing and research. This includes startups such as Openbazaar’s OB1, the bitcoin-centric social media network Yours, and the wallet service Ripio.

The plan ones was to contain Bitcoin by letting it fail. But the best 'snowden/wikileaks" brains like bitcoin so attacks like antbleed were "discoverd" or better said , the people depending on programmers to build this feature cant do it them self/ and those who can are on bitcoins side. |
