Over time the hash will spend more time in BCH which will cause the unconfirmed backlog to rise and rise, which is directly related to fees which will rise and rise.

https://blockchain.info/unconfirmed-transactions
Blocks having been found were able to keep pulling this number down under 30k only hours ago.

Now it is struggling to get under 80k.

And the BTC difficulty will down adjust making it easier so your precious BCH difficulty will need to be lower just to maintain profibility the only one in a downward death spiral is BCH it's being forced down in difficulty and eventually a BTC miner will retaliate at 51% attack the network

First the arguement was that Jihan controls massive mining power and now there will be a miner who comes in with more than him to launch an attack? Which is it?

Anyone believe BCC will go over 1k $ someday before the end of 2017 ?

End of 2017? How about the end of the month. Time to light the fuse on this baby.

Do any exchanges have advanced order types like trailing stops, stop loss, %, etc? Kraken used to have this and it was great, but they recently suspended it.

Anyone have thoughts on the next direction in this chart? Seems like we're headed for a mining profitability showdown between these two. Or maybe a simultaneous rise?

http://ztnark.com/bitcoin-fork
I'd like to see that chart overlayed on top of the actual hash power. That might give some indication of the latency between mining profitability and mining reaction time for those who switch (I'm not sure this has value but I want to see it)

I noted the media hadn't reported on the profitability swing until early this morning, well behind the actual swing.

I can't get it to overlay, but this gives an idea of hash rate to compare to profitability:

http://fork.lol/pow/hashrate

I have no idea why the sudden divergence in profitability. Anyone?

mining is very slow.. how long will this last?


Mining is slow?! Average under 3 minutes per block for the last 100 blocks:

http://bch.xbt.it/?interval=10

Or were you referring to Bitcoin Segwit with over 15mins per block:

So BCH is only 14% more profitable to mine, but we are still seeing a good chunk of miners supporting it. Are they starting to feel confident in the future of BCH to the point where they will HODL?

Also, thought this was interesting:

BTC split from "The" Bitcoin chain via segwit.

BCH split from "The" Bitcoin chain via raising the block size.

Both forks implemented changes, thus while one kept the stock ticker of BTC and the infrastructure built around the BTC ticker on trade platforms, it is not inherently the defacto Bitcoin.

...

Yes, both chains should be considered forks of the original chain and both should change their names.
There're 2 types of Bitcoin now: Cash and Segwit.

^^^^ This exactly 1000%

Both have their purpose and both will succeed. The world is big enough for BCH and BCS (and even B2X).

Someday you can tell your grandkids about what life was like when you used to own good ole BTC Bitcoins. And yes, your grandkids will think you're nucking futs when you tell them about when BTC was under $1000

I belive BCH holders will be as happy as BTC holders in the end, if not happier.

Why not $30??  Huh Cheesy Cheesy I'd think if I wanted to have a lot this I ought to just buy it soon before the prices all jump? Or is it really more likely there will be an alts dip? Quite possible, after this present bubble...
Yes this is about a long term holding, cos it should rise about 10 X if you really want to be a serious investor. Who know what will happen but it seems cryptos will just increasde in popularity over time if this same pattern continues.. Grin

I've been also thinking of IOTA a fair bit, and then there's a dark horse like MTL that looks quite interesting...I suppose it all depends on whether there's a good developers team behind it as to whether a coin is going up or not...Of course I've got ETH as well, is there any point in BitCoin Cash? (BCC) and the dilapidated Ethereum Classic?? The mind boggles..

Just like fiat currencies there will be numerous successful cryptocurrencies in the future. There is room for BCC, ETC, LTC, and many others.

If BCH users can not even read twitter then there is no hope for them and BCH. John clearly tweeted about BTC and note BCH was never at $1 800 and never will be. Bitcoin will be $500 000 in 2020 but remember that discounts FIAT devaluation also. Things are not just about mining hash power shifting between BCH and BCT for profitibility, that us just a short term miners option. BTC has network effect and BCH not. BCH will never have. BCH might co-exist with BTC but will never come close to BTC in the long run. BCH might reach $3 000 in 2030 when BTC pushes $1mil.

See John's tweet below including his miss spelt Bitcoin (corrective text is a bugger) and also watch his interview on youtube about bitcoin not BCH.

Bitcoub's low of $1,800+ yesterday simply could not be maintained. In the long term Bitcoin moves above $500,000 within three years. Bets?

Huh

Hello everyone!

I have been following this thread a long while now. I have a question which makes me very very very confused. The John McAfee prediction of $500000 per coin, did he refer to "BTC (Bitcoin)" or "BCH/BCC (Bitcoin Cash)"? Can someone please shed light on this? I see that some people keep asking him in his Twitter but he does not reply to those questions at all, which is very strange.

Please, I am not asking for speculation or a flame war coin vs coin, I just need to know specifically which coin John was talking about? Because he said bitcoin but also he said he is with Jihan Wu... so that's why I'm confused. WHICH ONE OF THESE TWO COINS DID HE TALK ABOUT?

Greatly appreciate some insight into this issue,

Thank you.

He was referring to Bitcoin Cash, and said it was the only true Bitcoin. Even if it doesn't hit $500k per coin it will continue to climb.

You should wait for it to go back to around $45 if you want to invest

Do you think it will go back to $45?It has been on a steady climb for the past 6 months. I think it is a matter of time before it pops above $60
594  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: LiteCoin worth investing in now? on: August 24, 2017, 07:09:14 AM
Sounds like it could be a good time to get into LTC. New version released that is getting closer to instant swaps between LTC and BTC

Anyone notice we have 5 difficulty adjustments on the way after 6 more blocks? Difficulty will be close to what it was yesterday. Hash incoming in 3...2...1...!

Official flippening to begin shortly.

At todays sale when everything is down I am going to put my money in BNB. Great potential returens right here!

Good move, we're up 15% in one day already. I'm excited for Sept 10 to see what they say at the conference.

What kind of conference will be on September 10th? I think I missed the news!

Here:

http://www.bitkan.com/event?from=coindesk

Ceo of Binance will be speaking at 15:15. I know it isn't a long talk, but he is sharing the stage with some serious heavy hitters that day.
