The Cuneta article has so many errors, misunderstandings, misdirections and/or lies, it amazes me that even ignorant people continue posting it. examples? "Bitcoin Cash, at the time of this writing, had one Github commit in the last 13 days. Their development team is composed of one to two full-time developers and a handful of unknown others." Bitcoin Cash is the blockchain, not a SW project. There are several independent teams working on clients for this blockchain. One of these teams alone has more than two full-time developers. Others have some number of known developers. I don't know which of these projects github he checked, nor which day he checked it. But at least one Bitcoin Cash client uses a code repository other than github. So even if his monitored github account (which one?) had only one commit in 13 days, it is pretty much irrelevant. Maybe it wasn't a github repository relevant to Bitcoin Cash. Maybe he's just making it up anyway. Who knows? How many lies and omission are we up to so far? And this is in only one quarter-paragraph. The entire thing is rife with inanities. |

I don't understand your motto "Make Bitcoin Decentralized Again" ... When it became centralized?  What does it means?) It means giving the power back to the users Nvidia and AMD instead of the ASIC manufacturers FTFY Frankly, I find the entire 'bubut muh centralization' narrative ludicrous. As long as there are no prohibitive institutional barriers to mining entry, it is as decentralized as is beneficial. |

why bitcoin should be split again into several parts, whether this is due to disagree between developers, I do not really understand
I cannot give you correct answer, but in my point of view and my knowledge about the crypto market. There are lots of projects simply based on name of Bitcoin, use Bitcoin as their prefixes, tried scamming around. Be careful. its fine you end up on all forked chains...and is a way of exploring all viable models. Perhaps a necessary step in Bitcoin inheriting its antifragility. |

It’s slower than bitcoin and now costs more to send
Two lies for the price of one. Where do you come up with this stuff?  |

...but at the end of the day, I will hold USD in my bank account because when I wake up tomorrow, I will still have $100 and not some random amount depending on the "market"
You will be kicking yourself. In well under two years time. Woulda. Coulda. Shoulda. So in the end you were right. The world doesn't want a decentralized Bitcoin. All it wants is scale. Heathens. Still waiting for someone to stop merely asserting 'bubut centralization', and actually put forth an example of in what manner Bitcoin Segwit is more decentralized than Bitcoin Cash. You up to the challenge? Or will you remain responding pavlovically?
...but at the end of the day, I will hold USD in my bank account because when I wake up tomorrow, I will still have $100 and not some random amount depending on the "market"
You will be kicking yourself. In well under two years time. Woulda. Coulda. Shoulda. Not all people can afford to buy 100 BCH and "put away" a few years. I'm poor. 'sOK. Bitcoin welcomes all - large and small. Bitcoin will reward you to the extent of your participation. |

You know things are getting desperate around here when Torque and Jbreher quote me and remove all content from the quote because they're unable to put forth any argument whatsoever against it. It will be two paragraphs and the quote will either be replaced with "..." or they will move things around to try and turn it into a pro-pump statement lol. MatTheCat posts they have no problem quoting because they're easy to ridicule, but those r0ach posts have to be hidden to prevent the goyim from knowing.
I removed a buncha your text, because: - it is not germane to my reply; - your flawed axioms lead you to nonsensical conclusions; and - there is a link right at your quote where people can click and read your entire post anyway. Why so butthurt over this trivial matter? I note you did not reply to my counterpoint. Out of ammo? I don't know why you continue to troll here. Do you think you are being altruistic? XkcdHoneyICantComeToBedYetSomeoneIsWrongOnTheInternet.png? Masochistic? Bitcoin -- so far -- has shown all the hallmarks of creating the largest transfer of wealth any of us will see in our lifetimes. You believe you have picked the right side of that singularity. The rest of us are comfortably over here on this side. Nothing I say is likely to change your mind. And the fact that you repeat the same points over and over (and over and...) reveal that you have no new considerations that are likely to change ours. I mean, seriously - what the heck are you getting out of all your wall-head-smashing?

The average Bitcoin Core or Electrum user can just use Coin Control and do his own mixing (or non-mixing) or just bouncing it off a bunch of addresses, and that's without sending them to exchanges.
While this is true, full blocks make this very time consuming and very expensive. Of course, mixing is a poor substitute for actual anonymity. But perhaps workable in practice for noninteresting transactions.
Also, the development team is a bunch of very well known and reputable folk in the coding community, with ties to the British MI6 mind you! I'm very reassured now...  Isn't it obvious from the silhouette who it is? It's Conan O'Brien!
... ... ...
Well, r0ach, what you don't seem to get is... oh hell forget it - it's like talking to a wall. It ain't worth the time.
If Bitcoin Diamond has more proof of work than Bcash, then Bitcoin Diamond will become the real Bcash.
I don't see how that position is defensible, what with the mining algo change, the 210 M inflation, the segwit trojan, ... Of course, their website is a scrape and cut'n'paste of the Bitcoin Cash website - is that what you were trying to convey? (I think you forgot a /sarc)
An experienced user that should be difficult to fish/trick, but through economic incentives, was persuaded to adopt the idea that there can be many different bitcoins all at the same time or that it can just randomly change from one thing to another.
Well, no. But thanks for playing. OTOH, 'experienced financiers' can be tricked into accepting different things as gold, such as paper, IOUs, or ledger entries from their broker. Real "money" can't morph or change from one thing to another because then it would not be fungible, hence bitcoin gold isn't and never was "money" in the first place.
Except we know that gold has served as money. So your argument that bitcoin is not falls on its face. Nevermind that your initial postulate fails from a terminal misunderstanding of the nature of Bitcoin. So how's that wampum doing for ya, r0ach? |

Check out the tweets by people now shilling BCash extolling the virtues of Bitcoin Cash, their accounts never mentioned crypto currencies before August. They are fake/paid.
...
And the few who are interested are either idealogical big blockers, or just like Alt coins, people who missed out on the early entry to Bitcoin are desperately looking for a big win.
Present company excepted, I suppose? Oh, well it is true that I almost never tweet. OTOH, how is it that you view 'idealogical big blockers' as a purjorative? It is a label I wear proudly. |

Personally I don't understand why many of these altcoins are valued way more than Litecoin.
Some alts offer unique attributes that may prove to be of some value. Litecoin -- in my opinion -- is merely a crappy version of Bitcoin. A different algo and a quarter-time do not differentiate it enough to be judged as anything but. |

So, Bitcoiners, wait or sell your Gold, and what to buy?
I've sold about half my Bitcoin Gold so far. Traded it into Bitcoin Segwit. About half of the resultant Bitcoin Segwit, I have exchanged for Bitcoin Cash. The remainder of that Bitcoin Segwit is sitting on open Bitcoin Cash buy orders, waiting for the price to be hit. Though it looks like my bids are too low. May have to cancel and reset. |

I don't think the developer didn't start this thread they started a different one it's just this is the one everyone uses because it was first
Not the first. This one predates it https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2133536.0. That thread has a scrape of the initial website, which itself was lifted (stolen?) directly from the Bitcoin Cash website. |

Hmm. I don't get the claims. In the end, it's only about 105 grains moving at 1345 fps. That's about +P ballistics - not even +P+. Steel ogive over lead. Where's the magic? Sold all my 9mm stuff a couple years ago. But Kimber's been trying to drag me back. http://www.kimberamerica.com/micro-9-covert-1That'd make a nice backup. |

Thx for the fake wallet info.
Heres another one:
Bitcoin Wallet Bamboozle: Bitcoin.com Offering Bitcoin Cash Wallet, Calling it “Bitcoin”
You seem pretty confusable. You know the Bitcoin.com wallet is a multicurrency wallet, right? And that it by default creates clearly labeled separate wallets for BTC and BCH, right? |

Just like the Pentagon Finance Offices, which were missing $2B, when they got "hit" on 9/11 and all financial records destroyed, LOL.
Yup. Rumsfeld revealed it on 9/10/01. But you're off by three orders of magnitude. It was 2.3 TRILLION. Kinda convenient to get than knocked out of the news cycle, hunh? |

Problem is that on-chain scalability is no sustainable scalability solution.
Of course. 'Everybody knows that'. Of course, 'everybody' also knows that 'anything over 1MB is unsafe'. Funny that BCH is chugging along at 8MB. |

Who bought in 2011 and still post on this forum? Probably no one.
Ha. Hahah. Hahahahahahhhaaaaa. Maybe that is why you have been acting so disgruntled, recently, jbreher? It's the junoreactor theory of having had sold too many coins at a lower price? Remember folks, when in doubt HODL, and if you want to sell some coins, don't sell too many.  Not at all. I was laughing because I know for a fact -- i.e. personal experience -- that junoreactor's assumption was faulty. After all we've shared, I would think you would know this about me, JJG. |

The amount of people in this Thread that boast a Trust: -2: -1 / +0 Warning: Trade with extreme caution! is too high.
What with Lauda running roughshod though this thread, and tagging everyone who points out that Bitcoin Cash was Bitcoin before Bitcoin Segwit was Bitcoin with negative trust, what would you expect? LoL, is this where you neg trust has its origin? yeppers.
It's not fair they claim btc is the real Bitcoin
No Fair! leave britneybitcoinalone.gif
Maybe... they can get Barry at DCG to hop on board. Doesn't he need to buy up some BCH anyway by January 1, 2018 to compensate his Coinbase customers?
What makes you think that? Coinbase should already have all the BCH they need to make customers whole. |
