edit: ^aha. snap!

https://www.coindesk.com/opinion-segwit2x-doomed-fail/

Quote
Exchanges have also largely recognized "legacy" bitcoin, and after the fork, that Segwit2x coins will be treated as separate units of value. This is opposed to Segwit2x's original intention and goal, which was to seamlessly replace the current bitcoin protocol and the corresponding unit of value.

Quote
... it is likely that the Segwit2x agreement will only continue to lose more support prior to the activation date. Indeed, perhaps the only reason that we haven't seen more of this already is that there is little incentive for these companies to be among the first to back out of their agreement while there remains time before they are required to actually act on it.

By virtue of this, should Segwit2x launch at all, it will likely debut with much less than currently advertised support. Thus, signers are faced with the actual risk and cost of following through given the clear division in the ecosystem.

When even a ... 'full-stack javascript developer teaching at the Ironhack coding bootcamp in Miami, and a Henry Hazlitt fellow in Digital Development at the Foundation for Economic Education'

... understands bitcoin better than the suits.

C'mon, Barry, give it up now.

So let me get this straight.

The CME Group is supposed to launch Bitcoin futures trading on Nov 14th. Then, "The Idiots Who Shall Not Be Named" are set to launch SegWit2x on Nov 16th.

And everyone thinks this timing is nothing more than coincidental??   Huh

also the bitcoin cash jokers at the same time:
https://www.bitcoinabc.org/november
Bitcoin ABC has published version 0.16.0 which contains an updated Difficulty Adjustment Algorithm (DAA). 

This is a change to the Bitcoin Cash consensus rules, but the change does not activate until November 13th.  This is a hard fork, so exchanges, wallets, and other software need to upgrade before November 13th.

But a wildcard that I'm expecting is the implosion of Finex.

What the fuck is this?  A complete conspiracy?  Do you have any evidence at all that this is likely beyond pure speculation that Bitfinex is getting BIG again?

By the way, Bitfinex has to have a bit of confidence in their solvency and even their attempt to run a legitimate business since they had the balls to kick out all of the USA customers, including yours truely.  Maybe you are going to assert that I am naive, but if Bitfinex truely wanted to exit scam us, wouldn't they have already done it?  They weren't ready to exit scam us, so now they are building up business in order to exit scam us on their own convenient time line? 

Come on!!!

[insert jim carey "come on meme" here, with the water spitting part]

you're lucky you're out, cos it's true they're gonna go phft. they're backed by promises to pay rather than money. not a bitcoin business at all

look i'm a hypocrite like everyone else, but this ...

playground insults?

a handful of overly-entitled neckbeards either whiny-ragequit

... alone proves you are no Goebbels.

And you get heated and sweary when others swear at you. Poor quality shilling 2/10.

No, you're just as you say a curmudgeon, like Ibian, like roach, like me when I don't control myself.

You don't have any arguments other than 'don't like all this modern stuff'.



Or can you account for this assertion

While I believe in BCH's long term prospects, it may be a bumpy ride. Then again, its the only one of the three that can make it through a sudden hashrate drop.

And Bitcoin Gold/GPU can fuck right off.


btc hashrate dropped 40% at first when bch came on. it made it through with slower blocks and higher fees and price went up.

core devs are running round reassuring users that we can survive a 90% drop in hashrate. @slush is on their side, and something's happening with Francis Pouliot in Canada.
150 min blocks for a few weeks are meh.
hashrate will not decide this


and why the hate for gold/gpu?
surely you're not threatened?
it's harmless ... surely?
