I really don't understand why...
Because we are americans and we tell you little bitchassed chinks what to do. That's why. Got any more questions?

Ridiculous idea! This soundsa bit like they wanna make crypto investing an elite thing. I highly doubt this is going to work out. The black market and local trading in dark side streets will thrive! This is why Russian chicks love getting fucked in the ass. They are used to it. Putin has been fucking the people in the ass for years. This is nothing other than a silly explanation for a law they will try to use to limit capital flight. Russia is highly exposed to capital flight and its effects. They will do whatever it takes to keep capital and hard currency inside of Russia. Buying bitcoin involves hard currency leaving Russia. Of course that is going to be illegal. Get the lard!

But that doesn't change the fact that BCC is not supported by anyone and you can't do shit with it. So no point in recommending someone to witch if it's not accepted. It's as if you would say "Well just use Litecoin" cool man but no one wants to get paid with it.
What makes you think it is not supported by anyone? It is widely supported and even those reluctant at first are now fully supporting it - just look at Poloniex who quickly got behind it in only a few weeks. BCH is for real. It more closely follows Satoshi's original idea of on chain scaling. SegWit is a wild idea to create PRIVATE off chain service that make profit for AXA and Core. SegWit re-introduces the middle man and fees!!! Bitcoin Cash is true peer-to-peer.

all I do is stay on the side with highest price, where I can make bigger profits.
When Bitcoin Cash takes over from the fighting two SegWit prongs, you will make the MOST profit being on BCH as it surpasses BTC. SegWit is a disaster waiting to happen. Only one day after the first fork, SegWit2X started fighting with SegWitCore and the next new fork was proposed. Core is lying and cheating to get their way. They promised 2X, now they back out of that same lie for a second time. No way those guys can be the 'real Bitcoin'.

This blatant fraud must stop. If the would fork Bitcoin and call it something else, no one has a problem with that. All I ask for is leave BTCalone
I have a fun question for you: Which is more like the original Satoshi White Paper bitcoin: SegWit/Core or Bitcoin Cash?. All you ask is leave BTC alone? Well, maybe SegWit2X should call their alt something else. The fight for the Bitcoin brand is a strange part of the fork.

This is simple fraud under the pretext of improving Bitcoin. They are using the most established cryptocurrency brand and creating un-necessary or ineffective forks and propping them up to inflate their value. I won't be surprised if major backers of this are investigated for a range of financial crimes.
Boy are you lost. Like an idiot in the wind. wtf are you trying to promote. lol. so damn funny. Do they get any more clueless than this guy?

This is already not true - if I interpret blockchain.info's statistics right, so far, we had four blocks with more than 1 MB (these need to include Segwit transactions), three of them mined today: - block 481947 (1,032119 MB) - block 482152 (1,00003 MB) - block 482187 (1,00003 MB) - block 482191 (1,00001 MB) So things are moving slowly, but they are moving. Maybe segwit is not yet fully active? It is fully active. It is just broken. It doesn't do what they said it would do. They told everyone it was part of a scaling solution. Obviously that is incorrect.

Hello guys, I really don't understand all the "excitement" about that SegWit thing. It already activated couple of days ago and still nothing - too many unconfirmed transactions, fees are very high, block sizes are still under 1 MB, and slow confirmations. Where is the promised lightning network? When (if at all) the current situation will change?
Well, some say it is because of the bitcoin Cash. SInce bitcoin cash is getting easier to mine, the miners are shifting from Bitcoin to Bitcoin Cash and making the confirmations delayed. The block is not the problem but the miners who are confirming it. Does that mean bitcoin cash is becoming more popular than the bitcoin? Yes. It will become more each day and then finally overtake the old bitcoin.

The real bitcoin is that mined by the biggest mining biggest companies, that is by Hashnest. Why would someone say that BCH or 2x or whatever would be the real and good bitcoin when all people know which bitcoin the biggest companies are mining? My guess is that some people want to have the control of bitcoin, but this will not happen.
lol. That is pretty funny. You might not believe this but the 'biggest mining companies' and Core are about to go two separate ways. Then who will you choose? Core has most advance dev team 2X has most mining companies\ Cash is most like the White Paper. Will the 'real' Bitcoin please stand up?

My transaction has been completed, looks like there was a lot of load on the block chain. Still waiting for Segwit to be able to give us 8Mbs/block. Anyone have an idea when that will be?
Yes. I have an idea when that will be: Never. SegWit doesn't do 8MB. SegWit will never do that. SegWit is being carefully restricted to 1MB by Core. Indeed, they are looking for ways to go to .5MB. I am not kidding about this. Just use Bitcoin Cash. They already have 8MB running right now and they have very short confirmation times and very low fees. It is already running. You don't need to wait for anything.

Why we need to know the 'real' bitcoin? Just keep in mind that bitcoin is a payment method that can be used online and in the real world as well. ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) Bitcoin Core, or 'SegWit(not)2X' is core's version and they want you to believe they are the 'real bitcoin' so they will carry the 60+$B value onto their system. However the majority of hashers will go with SegWit2X (distinct from (not)2X).

Why does Bitcoin Core (status quo / Segwit soft fork) cease to be Bitcoin, just because some hard forks were created?
Because Bitcoin Core and SegWit2X is a radical departure from the white paper. SegWit is the fork. Bitcoin Cash follows the original idea and it is the same thing that Satoshi called 'Bitcoin'. SegWit is not Bitcoin. SegWit is not even like Bitcoin. SegWit might be interesting science and a good approach to scaling - but it is not Bitcoin.

Realistically, after Segwit is activated most people will switch over to it. Why? Because it allows for Lightning Network which we desperately need in order to reduce transaction fees which are currently outrageous. IT will also speedup transaction times as well. I don't know why some people dislike Segwit. It makes perfect sense.
What? If you don't like high fees and slow transaction times, use Bitcoin Cash - not SegWit. Bitcoin Cash has very low fees and quick confirmation. SegWit is complex with soon to be two versions and loads of overhead for adoption at coupled systems (wallets, etc). SegWit is a disaster waiting to happen. It is a radical departure from the original white paper. It is an alt coin.

Why do we even need all these separate versions anyway? It seems like the original Bitcoin was working great. Doesn't seem like Bitcoin Cash is doing much of any good.
They each have different performance advantages that some members of the community believe are important to the future uses of their respective networks. The 'original' Bitcoin was working horribly. The transaction capacity was topped out. The fees were exploding. Something needed to change to scale. All three versions agree with this. But all three versions chose a different solution for scaling. Forks are good. Don't fear the fork. They allow everyone to really see how the performance works in the real world. Pre-fork, everyone merely speculates what would happen if certain rules are adopted. They usually miss the mark by a mile. Once a new network (prong of the fork) is launched, we can really see whether these predictions are true or not. Only short sighted profit mongers worry as a fork can reek havoc with price stability. But really fucking smart guys like Andreas Antonopolous welcome the fork because we get to see what really happens instead of merely listening to a-holes like Greg Maxwell who like to tell everyone how the world should fit his personal vision. Maxwell wants you to just listen to him and his fancy PhD and do whatever he says - backed by continuous manipulation via censorship and DDOSing the opposition. AA wants the system to naturally find its way. AA wins everytime. Thank god we have Jesus to save us all; Roger Ver is giving the fork an opportunity to work. ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

So everyone is fighting to argue that their prong of the fork is the 'real' bitcoin. But that distinction is clearly behind us now. There is no 'real' bitcoin. Rather there are 3 prongs each of which share the same genesis block and early history. Bitcoin now includes: - Bitcoin 1 : Bitcoin Cash
- Bitcoin 2 : Bitcoin SegWit2X
- Bitcoin 3 : Bitcoin Core
To help all members of the community, it is beneficial that everyone stop fighting over who will be the 'real' bitcoin and clearly distinguish between all three viable networks. Further fighting over the 'Bitcoin' brand is damaging to all three. When writing about your favorite prong, please use the designators above.

Is not segwit a solution for the high fees?
lol Well, how is that working for you? Try to send a transaction on SegWit2X right now and tell me about your low fees. lol. Some morons are never going to get it.

If the hash power doesn't switch in a couple hours, BTC is dead. Even if it does it will just be prolonging the inevitable demise of BCore.
This is all true. BTC has a very troubled future before crashing to the end under the horror that is Core and their proprietary LN. Bitcoin Cash is the orignial Satoshi White Paper. What is wrong with that?

Searching "BCH merchants" ....Searching.....Searching.....Searching......Searching.....Searching, "Sorry nothing found" It is still just a pipedream for BCH to be anything other than a Alt coin. Have not seen OP in a long while, he only comes out when there are troll material for him to feed on. Did I say pipedream or wet dream? ![Huh](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/huh.gif) Bitcoin Core - SegWit2X is the alt. It is a radical deviation from the White Paper. Please don't forget that again.

How do you think BCC miners will pay their operational expenses?
With money. BCH mining is more profitable that BTC mining now. Why do you think so much hash rate moved over so fast? It is the money. Big Money.
